2011-12 OUTLOOK

Delaware State University’s 201112 squad will bear little resemblance to the team that posted a 9-20 overall record and a 10th place finish in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (5-11 MEAC) last season.

The Lady Hornets will return just four players who saw action during the 2010-11 season, although two were starters a year ago.

Ed Davis, who is in his 12th year as head coach of the Lady Hornets, faces the challenge of replacing his top two scorers, leading rebounder and best three-point shooter from last season.

His 2011-12 active roster features seven freshmen, four sophomores, one junior and zero seniors.

The other returning players from last season are guard Crystal Pitt (jr., 5-7, Ft. Washington, Md.) and center Uchechi Ahaiwe (jr., 6-3, Riverdale, Md.).

Pitt averaged 2.5 points in 27 games (12.1 minutes-per-game), but will not play this season due to injury.

Ahaiwe appeared in 21 contests (4.0 mpg), averaging 0.8 points.

Topping the list of 2011-12 newcomers is forward Tierra Hawkins (fr., 6-2, Clinton, Md.), a former standout at Washington, D.C., area power Riverdale Baptist. Hawkins, who sat out last season, helped lead Riverdale to two conference championships. She averaged 13 points and eight rebounds per-game in her final season at the school.

Her twin sister Tianna plays for the University of Maryland.

The Lady Hornets have bolstered their front line with the addition of Morgan Woodruff (fr., 6-2; Bloomington, Ind.). Woodruff was a Top 10 Indiana recruit following a successful career at Bloomington South High School.

Guard/forward Keyanna Tate (fr., 6-0, Beltsville, Md.) was a 2010-11 McDoanld’s All-America nominee at Bowie (Md.) High School before signing with the Lady Hornets. Tate is a two-time All-District of Columbia Inter-

The Lady Hornets have also added forward Nadirah Durr (fr., 6-0, Avenel, N.J.) to the roster. Durr averaged averaged 13 points and seven rebounds per game as a senior at St. Anthony’s High School. She helped lead the team to a 44-13 record during her junior and senior seasons.

DAVIS YEAR BY YEAR

ED DAVIS Davis is in his 12th season as head coach of the Lady Hornets.

Since accepting the post prior to the 2000-01 season, he has led DSU to the most successful run in the history of the program.

The Washington, D.C., native has an overall record of 171-159 (.518) at DSU, including a 117-73 (.616) mark in MEAC regular season contests. The Davis years at Delaware State are highlighted by a MEAC Tournament championship and NCAA Tournament berth (2007), a MEAC regular season co-championship (2003-04), five MEAC championship game appearances and the only 20-win seasons (four) in team history.

Davis further enhanced his credentials after a hard fought loss to No. 2 seed Vanderbilt in the 2007 NCAA Tournament. His 15th seeded Lady Hornets trailed by just four points at the half and by six with eight minutes left to the heavily favored Commodores.

11-12 DSU WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL During the 2006-07 season, Davis led the Lady Hornets on a 13-2 late-season spurt, including a three-game MEAC Tournament sweep en route to the first league championship in team history.

In 2005-06, Davis led the Lady Hornets to a 21-9 overall record and an appearance in the MEAC Tournament title game. The 21 wins matched the most in team history, tying the mark set by his 2003-04 squad. On February 27, 2006 Davis reached a milestone by posting his 100th win at Delaware State.

One year after setting a national record for scoring defense, Delaware State was tops in the MEAC and sixth among all Division I teams in scoring defense at 53.4 points-per-game during the 200506 season.

During the 2004-05 campaign, Delaware State set a national record for scoring defense. That season, the Lady Hornets became the first Division I women’s team to hold opponents to less than 50 points per game in a season, allowing 49.6 per contest.

Davis also served as the university’s interim Director of Athletics during the 2004-05 academic year.

The previous season (2003-04), Davis led the Lady Hornets to new heights, recording a school-record 21 wins (21-

9) and capturing a share of the MidEastern Athletic Conference regular season title for the first time in team history. His 2003-04 team was defeated by regular season co-champ Hampton in the MEAC Tournament championship game. That season, Delaware State was 11-0 at home including a 59-56 win over West Virginia, Delaware State’s first against a Big East opponent.

Davis was rewarded by being named MEAC Coach-of-the-Year for the 2003-04 season.

In 2002-03, Davis led the Hornets to the first 20-win season (20-10) in team history. Along the way, the 2002-03 Lady Hornets also set team records for consecutive wins (10) and conference victories (16-2). In addition, the team’s second-place finish in the final MEAC regular standings was the best in the program’s history at the time.

The team was particularly tough at home, winning its last 10 games in Memorial Hall that season.

During the 2000-01 season, his first at DSU, Davis guided a Delaware State that was picked to finish 10th in the MidEastern Athletic Conference to within minutes of a conference championship.

In the four years prior to Davis’ arrival, the Lady Hornets were 36-85, and failed

to advance beyond the quarterfinals of the conference tourney.

Prior to taking over the Delaware State job, Davis was head coach at Bowie State University (Md.).

In eight seasons at Bowie, he posted an overall record of 171-54 and turned the Bulldogs into one of the top Division II programs in the country . His tenure was highlighted by three Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) championships, three NCAA Tournament appearances, and numerous “coach of the year” awards.

Although Bowie State posted a record of 6-19 in 1992-93, Davis’ first season, it marked the most wins by the team in four years.

The following season, 1993-94, Bowie improved to 14-11, its first winning team in 10 years.

Davis’ 1994-95 team was 19-9 and advanced to the championship game of the CIAA Tournament. He captured his first CIAA Coach of the Year award following the season.

The next four years Davis led Bowie State to an unprecedented run of success in the CIAA. From 1995 to 1999, the Bulldogs posted a remarkable continued on page 8

110-10 record and a CIAA championship “three-peat.”

His 1995-96 team was 28-2 and advanced to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA. The squad also ranked first among all Division II teams in scoring defense.

The 1996-97 team had a 28-game winning streak en route to a 29-2 overall mark and the CIAA Tournament championship. The team also qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the second straight year.

The following year, 1997-98, the Bulldogs posted a 28-2 record and captured their second straight CIAA Tournament.

The team was ranked as high as number six in the national polls.

Davis’ 1998-99 team was 25-4 and captured a third consecutive CIAA championship before advancing to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA Tournament.

In 1999-2000, Bowie State was 22-5 and reached the championship game of the CIAA Tournament.

From 1995 to 2000, Davis’ teams won 40 consecutive games on their home court.

Davis has earned a number of awards for his coaching success, including CIAA Coach of the Year in 1995 and Women’s Basketball Coaches Association District II Coach of the Year in 198 and 1999. He was CIAA Tournament Outstanding Coach in 1997, ’98 and ’99.

Prior to his years at Bowie State, Davis was a teacher and successful high school coach in the Washington, D.C. area.

Davis was a four-year letterwinner on the West Virginia State men’s basketball team that set NCAA and National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) scoring records in the late 1960s and early 70s.

He holds a master’s in education from Howard University and a bachelor’s in education from West Virginia State College. Davis was inducted into the West Virginia State Athletics Hall of Fame in October 2008.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

THE MEAC The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) begins its 42nd year of intercollegiate competition heading into the 2011-12 academic school year. Located in Norfolk, Va., the MEAC is made up of 13 outstanding historically black institutions across the Atlantic coastline: Bethune-Cookman University, Coppin State University, Delaware State University, Florida A&M University, Hampton University, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, Norfolk State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University, Savannah State University and South Carolina State University.

The MEAC sponsors 15 Division I (FCS) sports with automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason competition in baseball, bowling, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s track and field, softball, and volleyball.

MEAC student-athletes excel on and off the field and several have been recognized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America and All-District teams. The MEAC awards two post-graduate scholarships of $5,000 each annually to one male and one female student-athlete who have excelled academically and athletically and are in their final season of intercollegiate athletics eligibility and competition under MEAC and NCAA regulations.

HISTORY In 1969, a bold ad hoc group of innovators long associated with intercollegiate athletics met in Durham, N.C., to discuss the feasibility of organizing a new conference. From these discussions, they formed a steering and planning committee to fully investigate the idea, present a detailed report with recommendations to interested collegiate institutions and construct a workshop to outline proposals.

After selecting a proposal and adopting a program, seven institutions (Delaware State College, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University and South Carolina State College) agreed to become the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Their major objective was to establish, organize and supervise an intercollegiate athletic program among a compact group of educational institutions of high academic standards with a sound philosophy of co-curricular activities. The conference agreed to seek Division I status for its sports.

The conference was confirmed in 1970, kicking off its first season of competition in football in 1971.

In 1978, the MEAC reached a milestone when it selected Kenneth A. Free to be its first full-time commissioner. Free served the conference for 18 years before stepping down in May of 1996. In July 1996, Charles S. Harris was named commissioner and served in the capacity until April 2002. On September 1, 2002, Dr. Dennis E. Thomas was named commissioner and has served in the position for nine years.

The conference’s first expansion occurred in October 1979 when BethuneCookman College and Florida A&M University were voted into the MEAC as new

members. Original members Morgan State, North Carolina Central and Maryland Eastern Shore withdrew from the conference at the end of the 1979-80 fiscal year.

Maryland Eastern Shore was readmitted in 1981 and Morgan State returned in 1984. Florida A&M opted to resign in 1984 but rejoined the conference in 1986.

Coppin State College was granted admittance in 1985, becoming the ninth member institution.

The MEAC expanded again in the 1990s with the inclusion of Hampton University (1995) and Norfolk State University (1997). The conference expanded once again in 2007, adding Winston-Salem State University. Following the 2009-10 academic/athletic season, however, Winston-Salem State withdrew from the conference and returned to Division II. On July 1, 2010, the MEAC made its most recent expansion with the admittance of North Carolina Central and Savannah State University.

On June 8, 1980, the MEAC was classified as a Division I conference by the NCAA. Prior to that year, the conference operated as a Division II conference. The month after it achieved Division I status, the MEAC received an automatic qualification to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. Currently, the conference has automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason play in baseball (since 1994), men’s basketball (since 1981), women’s basketball (since 1982), football (since 1996), softball (since 1995), men’s and women’s tennis (since 1998), and volleyball (since 1994).

The MEAC initiated cross country in 1980, and North Carolina A&T earned the inaugural men’s crown. The first women’s cross country championship took place a year later, with Howard winning the first of its seven titles. Indoor Track and Field was also added in 1981, with South Carolina State capturing the men’s title and Howard winning the women’s crown.

Tennis and golf returned as MEAC-governed sports in 1981 after a five-year hiatus.

South Carolina State won all seven of the conference’s golf championships from 1972-1983 before the sport was discontinued after the 1983 championship.

Baseball, which began in 1972, was discontinued following the 1977 season. It was brought back as a MEAC-governed sport along with women’s volleyball in 1983. Women’s softball became a MEAC-sanctioned sport in 1992.

Bowling was officially sanctioned as a MEAC sport in 1999. The MEAC was the first conference to secure NCAA sanctioning for women’s bowling by adopting the club sport prior to the 1996-97 school year.

SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS The MEAC has enjoyed tremendous athletic success over the years. In 2008, Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) defeated Arkansas State 4-2 to win the NCAA Women’s Bowling National Championship, a first for the conference and institution. With the victory, Lady Hawks’ Head Coach Sharon Brummell became the first female head coach to win an NCAA bowling title. The Lady Hawks repeated the feat in 2011 to win the team’s second NCAA title. During the same season, UMES won the United States Bowling Congress (USBC) Intercollegiate Team Championships (ITC), becoming the first team to win two national championships during the same season.

That same year, Morgan State won the NCAA College Division II National Championship and junior center Marvin “The Human Eraser” Webster was named the Division II Player of the Year. continued on next page

In football, the MEAC was instrumental in constructing the Freedom Bowl All-Star Classic, the Heritage Bowl and the Gold Bowl. Prior to Division I competition, the MEAC competed in the Gold Bowl, held in Richmond, Va., which matched the MEAC champion against the champion of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). South Carolina State represented the MEAC in 1976 and 1979, winning both outings over Winston-Salem State and Norfolk State respectively.

In addition to the 1976 and 1979 crowns, South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83, 1994, 2004, 2008 and 2009. South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83,1994, 2004, 2008 and 2009. They were also named co-champions along with Bethune-Cookman and Florida A&M during the 2010 season. During the 1981 and 1982 seasons, South Carolina State reached the second round of the I-AA championships.

On the track, Hampton’s Francenca McCorory set an American record in the 400m dash with a time of 50.54 and defended her national indoor title at the 2010 NCAA Indoor Championships. McCorory, a two-time All-American and threetime MEAC indoor champion in the 400m dash, became the first back-to-back NCAA indoor 400m champion since Suziann Reid of Texas (1998 and 1999). McCorory was named the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Division I National Athlete of the Year for the 2010 Indoor Track and Field season.

In outdoor track and field, North Carolina Central won the first three MEAC titles.

The quartet of Melvin Bassett, Robert Ouko, Julius Sang and Larry Black set the world record in the sprint medley relay with a time of 38.19 in the 1972 Olympics.

The Eagles finished fourth in the 1974 NCAA Division I Men’s Outdoor Track and Field Championship. MEAC women began outdoor track and field conference competition in 1980. In 1982, South Carolina State won the AIAW Division II Outdoor Track and Field National Championship.

The MEAC has showcased more than 27 athletes in the Olympics. Among them, 11 have earned medals during the Summer Games.

In 2003, Florida A&M became the first MEAC school to win a volleyball match in the NCAA Championship, with a first-round win over Winthrop. In 2004, the Lady Rattlers became the first historically black college/university to rank in the Top 25 of the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) national poll.

South Carolina State’s women’s tennis team earned the conference’s first Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) ranking in a 2005 poll, reaching No. 72.

In softball, Bethune-Cookman earned the conference’s first-ever at-large bid to the NCAA Softball Championship in 2005. The Lady Wildcats defeated Florida, Central Florida and South Florida in the Florida Regional to become the first MEAC school to win an NCAA Division I Softball Regional. Bethune-Cookman ended the 2005 season with the conference’s first-ever rankings in the final softball polls, reaching No. 18 in the NFCA/USA Today Coaches poll and No. 23 in the USA Softball/ESPN.com Poll.

Florida A&M was the first MEAC baseball team to advance to NCAA postseason play in 1994. The Rattlers took on Southeastern Louisiana in a best of three playin series, falling after two games, 11-10 and 8-7. During the 2002 campaign, Bethune-Cookman advanced to the Gainesville Regional and became the first MEAC team to win in the NCAA Tournament with a 7-4 victory over Florida International. The Wildcats had previously lost to Florida in their first game 13-1, and the team was eliminated from the regional with a 21-10 loss in its second matchup against the Gators.

DEREK CARTER

AD Athletic Director Third Season B.S. - Virginia Tech ‘85 M.S. - Tennessee-Knoxville ‘91 Sports Management Institute ‘97

Derek Carter was appointed as Delaware State University’s Director of Athletics on April 9, 2009. Carter immediately began strengthening all aspects of DSU athletics, including academic services for all student-athletes, fund raising, facility improvements and community support.

Since coming to Delaware State, Carter has reached out to alumni, students, businesses and the community at large to solicit support for the university’s athletics programs. He has traveled throughout the state and region to share his vision for athletics at the university.

At the same time, Carter has challenged all DSU teams and student-athletes to give back through community outreach. Hornet student athletes, coaches and staff members performed hundreds of community service hours during Carter’s tenure, ranging from home repairs to mentoring.

Delaware State’s school-record 122 student-athletes listed on the 2010-11 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Commissioner’s All-Academic Team, tops among all league schools, highlighted Carter’s second full academic year at the university. The MEAC All-Academic Team recognizes non-freshmen student-athletes with a cumulative gradepoint-average of 3.0 or higher.

During the 2010-11 academic year, Carter launched the inaugural Athletic Director’s Commencement Breakfast to honor graduating DSU student-athletes. The event included academic achievement awards, highlighted by recognition of three senior athletes who earned perfect 4.0 grade point averages throughout their career.

Carter was also appointed to the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Tournament Committee in 2010.

In Carter’s first full year at Delaware State, the Hornets placed 98 student-athletes on the MEAC Commissioner’s All-Academic Team (then a school record).

Delaware State also earned national recognition under Carter for the selection of senior Kalyn Washburn as the 2010 NCAA Elite 88 Award recipient for women’s bowling. The Elite 88 is presented to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average participating at the finals site for each of the NCAA’s 88 championships. In addition, Washburn was named the 2010 MEAC Woman of the Year. The award, selected annually by MEAC senior woman administrators, celebrates the achievements of female senior student-athletes who have excelled in academics, athletics, service and leadership.

jump) became the first DSU female to compete in the NCAA National Championship since 2002.

Delaware State also featured the MEAC softball (Jordan Reid) and baseball (Scott Davis) players-of-the-year during the 2010-11 athletic season.

Highlighted by second place finishes in basketball and cross country, Delaware State was runner-up for the 2009-10 MEAC Talmadge Hill Award for top overall performance in men’s sports during Carter’s first full year at the university. The Hornet men’s outdoor 1600-meter relay team also captured the MEAC title and qualified for the NCAA championship for the second straight year.

On the women’s side, Delaware State claimed its second consecutive MEAC championship and NCAA Tournament appearance in women’s bowling during the 2009-10 athletic year. Hornet sophomore Jordan Reid was also named MEAC Softball Player of the Year.

Carter brought a wealth of experience in athletics administration to Delaware State.

Prior to his appointment at DSU, he served as athletics director at Bowie State University in Bowie, Md., for six years beginning in 2003.

Under Carter’s leadership, Bowie State achieved a great deal of success. The bowling team won two-straight CIAA titles (2005 and 2006) and was the conference runner-up in 2009. The squad also claimed the Eastern Division title in 2006. The softball team claimed CIAA championships in 2007 and 2008, earning bids into the NCAA Division II Tournament each of those years. The women’s basketball team earned CIAA Eastern Division titles in 2008 and 2009 and was conference runner-up in ‘09. In 2005, the football team claimed the league’s Eastern Division championship.

Prior to his tenure at Bowie State, Carter served from 2001 to 2003 as the athletics director at Virginia State University in Petersburg, Va. His resume’ also includes two stints at his alma mater, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. From 2000 to 2001, he was director of Virginia Tech’s Monogram Club, an organization designed to foster fellowship among student-athletes. From 1994 to 1998, Carter was an assistant athletics director at Virginia Tech in posts that focused on spring sports, compliance and student life.

In addition, Carter fully endorsed the establishment of the Delaware Diamond Extravaganza, an annual event to celebrate the achievements of women in athletics.

This section is located on the southeast end of Memorial Hall and includes the renovation of an existing auxiliary basketball court and construction of a new basketball court as well as new offices, concession space, men’s and women’s locker rooms and a swimming pool.

DOVER Visitors to Kent County, Delaware are pleasantly surprised by the variety of historical and cultural attractions, beautiful farmland and coastal scenery, and curious mix of old traditions and modern high-tech culture. In Kent County, visitors can find Amish buggies on city streets, delicate shorebirds and giant C-5 Galaxy military cargo planes, quiet museums and exciting NASCAR races, arts and antiques, Colonial history, slots and harness racing.

Dover, the capital of the First State, invites you to experience life in a small American city – history, tax-free shopping and ambiance, all in a clean safe and friendly environment. You can spend the day shopping or strolling the quaint tree-lined streets to take in the city’s historic architecture, and spend the evenings at the theater or trying your luck at a gaming facility.

You can step back in time, literally, by standing on the very corner where in 1787, delegates to Delaware’s Constitutional Convention ratified the U.S. Constitution – thus giving Delaware its “First State” moniker.

The area’s collection of small towns as well as the natural beauty of places such as Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, provide hours of fun and adventure for visitors of all ages.

Dover’s central location in Delaware makes Kent County the perfect place for regional meetings and conventions, and a great overnight destination for tours of the state. Wilmington and the Brandywine Valley attractions are only one hour’s drive to the north. Delaware’s beach resorts, including Lewes, Bethany, and Rehoboth, are only one hour’s drive to the south. Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. are all within a two-hour drive. Kent County puts you right in the middle of the charm and excitement of “America at its Best.”

DOVER AIR FORCE BASE

Dover Air Force Base is important to the country’s defense, as it represents one-fourth of the nation’s strategic airlift capacity. Approximately 7,000 people are stationed at the DAFB. Dover is home to 36 giant C-5 Galaxy cargo planes, which are used to transport troops and equipment wherever they are needed around the world. The C-5 is the largest airplane in the U.S. military. Each plane is nearly as long as a football field, and could carry six motor coaches in its hold. The base cargo terminal known as the “Superport” is the largest anywhere in the US military, processing more tons of cargo than Kennedy airport in NY. The Air Mobility Command (AMC) Museum on the DAFB has over 24 aircraft on display, and features more multi-engine aircraft than the National Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC. Veteran aircraft on display include a C-47 “Gooney Bird” that dropped paratroopers over Normandy on D-Day.

Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge is a 16,000-acre haven along the Delaware Bay coast east of Smyrna, with salt marshes, ponds, fields, and forests.

From live performances, films and special events, to meetings and receptions, the Schwartz Center offers something for all tastes.

It is held on The Green and Legislative Mall, two beautiful outdoor parks in the historic downtown district.

Old Dover Days is a celebration of the First State’s Capital City and features a parade, maypole dancing, food court, re-enactors, walking tours, free entertainment and much more.

The Amish Bike Tour, African-American Festival, Delmarva Folk Festival, Jazz & Blues Festival, Diamond State BBQ Championship and Wyoming Peach Festival are other events that bring thousands to Central Delaware each year.

The Johnson Victrola museum is a tribute to Delaware’s native son, Eldridge Reeves Johnson, who founded the Victor Talking Machine Company in 1901. Exhibits include phonographs, recordings, memorabilia, trademarks, objects, and paintings that highlight Mr. Johnson’s successful business enterprises and chronicle the development of the sound-recording industry.

In 2004, under the leadership of Board Chair Dr. Scott D. Miller (President of Wesley College), a strategic alliance was formed to partner the resources of Wesley College, Delaware State University, and The Friends of the Capital Theater, to maximize usage and position the historic treasure as the premiere performing arts center south of Wilmington. In January 2007, the relationship was formalized with the three becoming equal partners in the operation, management and programming of the Center.
