Now in its 71st year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gave the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. Subsequently, the league has shown its stability over the past decade, seeing only one member institution depart over the past 18 years. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences. The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles “Turkey” Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged February 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958 Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961 Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans. After Title IX legislation passed in 1972, women’s athletics began a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC began formulating plans for women’s athletics in 1975 and established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. The conference added women’s golf and softball in 1994 and women’s soccer in 1998. In 1955, the OVC became only the second six-member league nationally to earn an automatic bid to the prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, which, at that time, was limited to only 24 participants. The Conference quickly proved worthy of that bid, as Morehead State defeated Marshall (107-92) and Wayne State (95-84) in the 1956 tournament. Fifteen years later, former OVC member Western Kentucky became the first and only Conference team to reach the Final Four. The Hilltoppers defeated Jacksonville, Kentucky and Ohio State before losing to Villanova in double overtime in the national semifinals. WKU went on to finish in third place after beating Kansas 77-75 in the consolation game. Since that time, the OVC has recorded some of the biggest upsets in the history of the NCAA Tournament. Perhaps the most famous moment came in 1987, when Austin Peay came from fourth place in the regular season to win the OVC Tournament and earn the league’s automatic bid. The Governors drew powerful Illinois, and were such big underdogs, that ESPN broadcaster Dick Vitale promised to stand on his head if APSU won the game. After a 68-67 victory over the Illini, and a narrow 90-87 overtime loss to eventual Final Four participant Providence in the second round, Vitale made good on his promise in a visit to Clarksville two months later. Murray State added to the OVC’s string of upsets in 1988 when it knocked off 14th-ranked North Carolina State, 78-75. The Racers’ M&M Boys - Jeff Martin and Don Mann - combined for 39 points in the win. MSU nearly went on to the Sweet 16 that year, losing to eventual national champion Kansas, 61-58. A bank shot by Mann that would’ve given the Racers a one-point lead rolled off the rim with three seconds left. In 1990 as a No. 16 seed, Murray State took No. 1 seed Michigan State into overtime before falling 75-71; that game still marks the closest a No. 16 seed has come to knocking off a No. 1 in men’s tournament action. More recently, Murray State has dominated the OVC Tournament, reaching the championship game every year in the 1990’s. The Racers’ 15 OVC Tournament Championships are the most among all OVC schools. After former member Middle Tennessee State won a first round game in 1989, the league had a drought as no other OVC team won a NCAA Tournament game for the next 19 years. But Morehead State, coming off a thrilling double overtime OVC Tournament victory over Austin Peay, topped Alabama State 58-43 in the 2009 Opening Round game at University of Dayton Arena in Dayton, Ohio. The game was played in front of an Opening Round record crowd of 11,346 and included many MSU fans who made the three-hour drive from Morehead for the game. In 2009-10, Murray State made OVC history by winning a record 31 games (31-5) on its way to the league’s regular season and tournament championships. In the first round of the NCAA Tournament, the No. 13 seed Racers topped Vanderbilt in thrilling fashion when senior Danero Thomas hit a jumper as time expired to lift MSU to a 66-65 victory. It marked the first OVC team to advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament since 1989 and snapped a skid of 71-straight loses to Southeastern Conference foes (dating back to 2000-01). In the second round, the Racers pushed eventual national runner-up Butler to the brink before losing 54-52. In 2010-11 Morehead State would make it three NCAA Tournament wins in as many years for the league and got a bit of revenge for the 2009 tournament loss to Louisville in the process. After finishing second in the regular season and winning the OVC Tournament Championship, the No. 13 seeded Eagles were shipped to Denver to play the in-state foe Cardinals. MSU jumped out to a 15-2 advantage but were down four points (61-57) with just over a minute to play in regulation. After two free throws from two-time OVC Player of the Year Kenneth Faried, the Eagles held for one final shot attempt and senior Demonte Harper pulled up off a cross-over dribble to nail a 3-pointer with 4.3 seconds left that gave Morehead State a 62-61 lead. UofL had one last attempt but Faried blocked the Cardinals last shot, giving MSU the win, its first over Louisville since the 1956-57 season. In 2011-12 Murray State put together one of the greatest seasons in OVC history, beginning the year 23-0 (an all-time OVC best) and being ranked as high as No. 7 in the coaches poll on Feb. 6. The squad was the first OVC team to be nationally-ranked since Murray State was ranked in 1997-98; in addition, the top 10 ranking was the first for an OVC team since the 1970-71 campaign (WKU). The Racers would top nationally-ranked Memphis and Saint Mary’s during the season and win the league’s regular season and tournament championships. MSU earned a No. 6 seed in NCAA Tournament, the highest-ever seed for an OVC team since the NCAA began seeding the field in 1979. The Racers would top Colorado State 58-41 in the second round before falling to Marquette in the third round. Murray State would win 31 games overall, tying the OVC all-time record the Racers set in 2009-10. After the Murray State win in 2011-12, the league had won NCAA Tournament games in fourstraight seasons, something that had never happened in league history (three-game winning streaks from 1960-62 and 1987-89 had been the previous best streaks). Over that time period (2009-12) the

OVC was one of just nine conferences nationally to win a NCAA Tournament game in each season and one of only three non-BCS leagues (joining the Atlantic 10 and WCC) to do so. In 2013-14 Murray State won five games to claim the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT) and in the process became the first OVC men’s basketball team to ever play games in the month of April. The 2014-15 season saw five OVC men’s basketball teams earn postseason bids, the most in league history, and a year later (2015-16) that number was eclipsed with six teams making national postseason tournaments. Entering 2017-18 OVC men’s basketball teams have at least one national postseason tournament victory in nine-straight postseasons, an all-time league record. In 2007-08, UT Martin guard Lester Hudson became the first men’s Division I player to record a quadruple-double in a game, when he registered 25 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 10 steals in a victory over Central Baptist College. Hudson, who ranked fourth in scoring nationally as a junior, returned for his senior season in 2008-09 and was second nationally in scoring (behind Davidson’s Stephen Curry) at 27.5 points a contest. Hudson earned numerous honors (including OVC Player of the Year and OVC Male Athlete of the Year in each 2008 and 2009 and All-American status from several outlets) before being drafted by the Boston Celtics with the No. 58 pick of the 2009 NBA Draft. During the 2010-11 year, Faried, the nation’s leading rebounder during the season, became the NCAA’s Modern Era (since 1973) career rebounding leader, totaling 1,673 rebounds which passed Tim Duncan for the record (he is 11th all-time in NCAA history). Faried also finished his career with 86 double-doubles, second all-time to only Duncan. He is one of only six players in NCAA history to finish with 2,000-plus career points (2,009) and 1,600-plus career rebounds. Faried was drafted 22nd overall by the Denver Nuggets in the 2011 NBA Draft, becoming the first OVC player selected in the first round since Tennessee State’s Carlos Rogers 1994. Murray State guard Isaiah Canaan, a first-team All-American in 2011-12, capped his illustrious career in 2012-13 by becoming just the 17th player in OVC history to score 2,000 or more career points. Canaan, who was a key part of Murray State NCAA Tournament victories in both 2010 and 2012, earned a pair of OVC Player of the Year honors (2012 and 2013) during his career as well as being named OVC Freshman of the Year (2010), OVC Tournament MVP (2010) and OVC Male Athlete of the Year (2012). He was drafted by the Houston Rockets with the 34th overall pick (No. 2 pick of the second round) of the 2013 NBA Draft. In 2014-15 Murray State became just the fifth OVC men’s team to complete a perfect Conference season (16-0). The Racers were led by sophomore Cameron Payne who was named OVC Men’s Basketball Player of the Year, OVC Male Athlete of the Year and earned third-team All-American honors from CBSSports.com. Following the season Payne declared for the NBA Draft, becoming the first sophomore in OVC history to do so and one of just four OVC players all-time to enter and stay in the draft with eligibility remaining. Payne was selected in the lottery by the Oklahoma City Thunder (pick No. 14 overall), making him just the ninth First Round NBA Draft pick in OVC history. Austin Peay made history in winning the 2016 OVC Men’s Basketball Tournament as the Governors became the first No. 8 seed to claim the championship. APSU had to win its two regular season games just to qualify for the event and then won four games in four days to capture its fifth tournament crown. Along the way the Govs topped a No. 5 seed, No. 4 seed, No. 1 seed and No. 2 seed and were paced by MVP Chris Horton who averaged 22.5 points, 14.0 rebounds and 3.5 assists/game during the event including a 37-point, 21-rebound and 30-point, 16-rebounds performance during the run. In 2016, former Belmont All-American and 2012-13 OVC Co-Player of the Year Ian Clark became the first former OVC player to advance to the NBA Finals since former Tennessee State star Anthony Mason played for the New York Knicks in 1994. Clark was part of a Golden State Warriors team that won an NBA record 73 regular season games but lost in Game 7 of the Finals. A year later, Clark was part of the Warriors team that topped Cleveland to win the 2017 NBA Championship, becoming the first OVC player to win the crown since 1970-71 (Murray State’s Dick Cunningham and Western Kentucky’s Greg Smith with the Milwaukee Bucks). Belmont’s Evan Bradds finished his career in 2016-17 with a 66.7 career field goal percentage, tops in OVC history and fourth all-time in Division I history. Bradds capped his career with back-to-back OVC Player of the Year awards in addition to being named 2016-17 OVC Co-Male Athlete of the Year. Through its 70 years, 13 teams have won or shared the league’s regular season men’s basketball title. Murray State heads the list with a Conference-record 25 outright or shared basketball crowns. Other past champions include former member Western Kentucky (19), Morehead State (9), Austin Peay (8), Eastern Kentucky (6), Tennessee Tech (5), former member Middle Tennessee (5), Belmont (4), Tennessee State (2), former member East Tennessee State (2), Southeast Missouri State (1), UT Martin (1) and former member Akron (1). Among the coaching greats in men’s basketball have been Western Kentucky’s E.A. Diddle, who retired with 759 victories and 10 OVC titles; John Oldham, who was a member of the very first All-OVC squad and went on to win seven OVC crowns during his coaching tenure at Tennessee Tech and Western Kentucky; Paul McBrayer, who guided Eastern Kentucky to 219 wins and three OVC crowns; and Cal Luther, who is the only person in Conference history to win men’s basketball Coach of the Year honors at two league schools - Murray State and UT Martin. Following the 2016-17 season, Austin Peay’s Dave Loos retired as the winningest coach in OVC history (he passed Luther for that crown in 2009-10). Loos, a five-time OVC Coach of the Year, finished his career with 420 wins in 27 years at Austin Peay (including a 258-194 OVC record) and 502 total wins in 31 years as a head coach. Loos was inducted into the OVC Hall of Fame in 2018. There have been an equal number of great players including Western Kentucky’s Clem Haskins, who is the only three-time OVC Player of the Year. Several players have won OVC Player of the Year honors twice: Western Kentucky’s Jim McDaniels (1969-70 and 1970-71), Murray State’s Les Taylor (1971-72, 1972-73), Jeff Martin (1987-88, 1988-89), Popeye Jones (1989-90, 1990-91) and Marcus Brown (1994-95, 1995-96), Austin Peay’s Otis Howard (1976-77, 1977-78), Middle Tennessee’s Jerry Beck (1980-81, 1981-82), Akron’s Joe Jakubick (1982-83, 1983-84), Tennessee State’s Carlos Rogers (1992-93, 1993-94), UT Martin’s Lester Hudson (2007-08, 2008-09), Morehead State’s Kenneth Faried (2009-10, 2010-11) and Murray State’s Isaiah Canaan (2011-12, 2012-13). The OVC also has the honor of being the only conference to boast the nation’s leaders in scoring, rebounding and assists all in one season. That feat was accomplished in 1991-92 by Morehead State’s Brett Roberts (28.1 ppg), Murray State’s Popeye Jones (14.4 rpg) and Tennessee Tech’s Van Usher (8.8 apg). In 2018, the OVC once again served as host for the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship First and Second Rounds at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. It marked the fourth-time the OVC served as hosts of the event (2000, 2005, 2012 and 2018). Tennessee Tech has won or shared 18 regular-season women’s basketball championships in addition to nine OVC Tournament crowns; both are tops in OVC history. UT Martin added its name to the list of championship by capturing its first OVC Tournament title in 2011 and also winning championships in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The Skyhawks became just the fourth team in OVC history (and first since Austin Peay from 2000-03) to win four-straight tournament titles. In 2016 Belmont won its first-ever OVC Tournament Championship, a feat it repeated in 2017 and 2018. Several coaches have made their mark in the history of OVC women’s basketball. Former Tennessee

Tech coach Marynell Meadors posted an amazing 363-139 (72.3%) record at Tech, becoming the first woman in NCAA or AIAW history to win 300 games at the same institution, while former Tennessee State skipper Teresa Phillips earned National Coach of the Year honors from USA Today in 1990 for turning around the Lady Tigers’ program before going on to lead TSU to the NCAA Tournament in 1994 and 1995. Tennessee Tech coach Bill Worrell capped a stellar 20-year career in 2005-06 and was inducted into the OVC Hall of Fame in 2007; he compiled a 408-190 record while leading the Golden Eagles to an unprecedented 16 OVC regular-season titles and eight NCAA Tournament appearances, including five straight from 1989-93. Larry Joe Inman, who retired at the conclusion of the 2007-08 season and was inducted into the OVC Hall of Fame in 2009, won more than 100 games at both Middle Tennessee and Eastern Kentucky, and earned OVC Coach of the Year honors a record eight times - five times at EKU and three at MTSU. In 2012-13 Inman came out of retirement to take the Tennessee State job; in 2014-15 he led the Lady Tigers to its first OVC Tournament Championship since 1995. Inman once again retired following the 2016-17 season, with 545 career victories. Many great players have graced the hardwood over the years, including former OVC Players of the Year Brooke Armistead and Gerlonda Hardin from Austin Peay, Pam Chambers, Jerilynn Harper, Cheryl Taylor, Angela Moorehead, Roschelle Vaughn, Diane Seng, Janet Holt and Emily Christian from Tennessee Tech; Morehead State’s Donna Murphy, Priscilla Blackford and Chynna Bozeman; Eastern Kentucky’s Kim Mays; Southeast Missouri’s Gray C. Harris; Murray State’s Ashley Hayes; and UT Martin’s Heather Butler and Jasmine Newsome. Morehead State center Brittany Pittman set new school, league and NCAA standards for blocked shots in 2008-09. Pittman swatted 164 shots during the season, setting a new NCAA single-season record (which has since been broken). In 2012-13 the UT Martin duo of Jasmine Newsome and Heather Butler finished fifth and sixth nationally among NCAA scoring leaders. Newsome, the 2012 and 2013 OVC Player of the Year, averaged 22.6 points per game on the way to All-American honors while Butler averaged 22.4 points per contest. Butler set a NCAA record during the season by connecting on a 3-pointer in her 80th-straight game. In 2013-14 Butler and Newsome capped their brilliant careers by ranking first and second in scoring in OVC history. Butler, the 2013-14 OVC Female Athlete of the Year, finished her career with 2,865 points, which ranked first in OVC and 16th in NCAA history. She also finished her career with 392 career 3-pointers (which was tied for the most in NCAA history following her career but now ranks second) and scored in double figures in all 129 career games, which ranks fifth in NCAA history. Following the season Butler was signed by the WNBA’s San Antonio Stars where she became the first OVC player to make an active WNBA roster. Newsome capped her career with 2,566 points, second only to Butler in OVC history. The league also had another historical moment in November 2008 when the NCAA awarded Nashville the 2014 NCAA Women’s Division I Final Four. The OVC served as the host of the prestigious event, which is one of the biggest sporting events the city of Nashville can host. The event was held April 6 & 8 at Bridgestone Arena in downtown Nashville and was played in front of sold-out crowds for both the semifinals and championship as UConn topped Notre Dame in a battle of undefeated teams to win its ninth national title. In 2017-18, Belmont completed its second-straight undefeated league season, increasing its winning streak in Conference games (both regular season and tournament) to 46 games. The Bruins were ranked in both the USA Today Coaches Poll and Associated Press Poll during the year, becoming the first OVC team to be nationally-ranked since 1992-93. The Bruins finished the year ranked No. 23 in the AP poll. Over its 70 years, OVC teams have garnered national championships and bowl games in football, along with national team or individual titles in the sports of rifle, cross country, track and golf. The OVC has also produced several Olympic athletes, including Murray State’s Morgan Hicks, who was a member of the 2004 United States Olympic Rifle Team and Morehead State’s Brian Shimer who

competed in five Winter Olympics in bobsled (winning a bronze medal in 2002) and coached the 2010 United States bobsled team to its first gold medal since 1948. Former Morehead State football and Eastern Kentucky track and field athlete Dallas Robinson competed with the U.S. bobsled team during the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. In addition, some of the greatest players in professional sports were educated at OVC institutions. The list includes former greats such as football’s Phil Simms (Morehead State) and Tony Romo (Eastern Illinois), basketball’s Clem Haskins (Western Kentucky) and Bubba Wells (Austin Peay) and two-sport star Steve Hamilton (Morehead State) to present-day standouts like basketball player Kenneth Faried (Morehead State) and Robert Covington (Tennessee State), football player Jimmy Garoppolo (Eastern Illinois) and baseball players A.J. Ellis (Austin Peay) and Shawn Kelley (Austin Peay). Hamilton is the only athlete to ever play in the NCAA Basketball Championship, a Major League Baseball World Series (New York Yankees) and an NBA Championship Series (Los Angeles Lakers). The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 275 student-athletes honored with the award, including 81 over the last eight years (2010-18). Through the early years of the league, administrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsmanship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics. Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior studentathlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the characteristics of sportsmanship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team Sportsmanship Awards, which are presented to one institution and 18 sport-specific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. The vision of leadership demonstrated by the Founding Fathers in 1948 remains alive today as the Ohio Valley Conference prepares for the future. One example is in regard to the current trend in collegiate athletics administration for increased involvement of university presidents in setting policies and making rules. The presidents of OVC institutions, however, have always governed the Conference, long before presidential governance became a national theme. The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle. Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Belmont University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin.

OVC HONORS AND AWARDS The Ohio Valley Conference implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsmanship Statement,” a policy promoting fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent in 1995. The statement answered a challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in college athletics, and has become a model for others to follow across the nation. The development of the OVC sportsmanship statement began in June 1993 at the direction of the league’s presidents. A committee made up of athletics directors and faculty representatives drafted the initial statement, and all coaches and other administrators had the opportunity for input. The statement sets forth expectations for spirit groups, officials and fans, as well as the student-athletes and coaches. Here is a brief synopsis of each group’s expectationas within the sportsmanship statement. Administrators: Institutional administrators will create an environment of hospitality for visiting teams, particularly for those individuals at Conference institutions. Administrators will treat the visiting teams and its fans in the same manner that they would want their teams to be treated. Coaches: Coaches have the greatest amount of influence over whether young people in their programs are taught and follow the high principles of sportsmanship. The OVC has been benefited by coaches who have risked losing a contest by removing student-athletes who have demonstrated disrespect for their opponents. This discipline measure educates that individual about the importance of sportsmanship over participation and winning, and helps counteract the constant messages received from many professional athletes who demonstrate a lack of respect for opponents. Student-Athletes: Student-athletes at OVC institutions will be expected to treat opponents with sportsmanship, and there will be no tolerance for taunting and baiting of opponents. OVC student-athletes must understand that they are perhaps the most visible representatives of their institutions and their behavior is observed and emulated by many who are younger. OVC student-athletes must honor the responsibilities that accompany the privilege of representing our schools by behaving with dignity and class on and off the field. Spirit Groups: Like our student-athletes, spirit groups are visible representatives of our universities, and they are expected to show decent behavior. Cheerleaders, bands and other spirit groups are admitted to contests to support their teams and assist in creating a fun atmosphere, but they will not be allowed to disrupt or confront opposing teams. Officials: Officials will enforce the rules regarding sportsmanship without tolerance for abuse. Players and coaches will receive their only warning prior to the contest, and once the contest begins, penalties will be assessed for violations of unsportsmanlike conduct. Fans: We know all fans are embarrassed by the inappropriate behavior of a few who may engage in confrontational and threatening actions towards officials, visiting fans, players or coaches. Those individuals may be dismissed to provide a better environment for others. The Conference believes that the effort to meet the expectations outlined in the sportsmanship statement will increase the attractiveness at our athletics events by creating a healthy environment for competition. A complete copy of the sportsmanship statement can be obtained by calling the OVC office at (615) 371-1698. The OVC has a variety of awards to recognize sportsmanship by its studentathletes, coaches, administrators and teams. In 1998, the OVC established the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, presented annually to a male or female junior or senior student-athlete who best exemplifies the characteristics of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and administrator. Hamilton is the only individual to have ever played in a NCAA Basketball Championship, a Major League Baseball World Series (New York Yankees) and a National Basketball Association Championship Series (Minnesota Lakers).

OVC HALL OF FAME

In 2003-04 the League began awarding the Institutional Sportsmanship Award, given to the OVC member institution selected by its peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. In 2005-06 the League expanded the sportsmanship award program by adding the Team Sportsmanship Award. An award is given to each sport sponsored by the OVC and is voted on by the student-athletes and coaches of the respective sports.

Beth DeBauche - Commissioner Elizabeth (Beth) DeBauche was named commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference on July 29, 2009, becoming the seventh full-time commissioner in the history of the OVC. As commissioner, she answers to each of the 12 OVC schools’ presidents and works with them to set the strategic direction of the conference. DeBauche (pronounced De-Bush), a Green Bay, Wisconsin native, received her Bachelor of Arts degree in history and government from Saint Mary’s College in Indiana, and her master’s degree in communications from Notre Dame. She went on to complete her juris doctorate from the Notre Dame School of Law. After a brief stint in the field of law, DeBauche turned her attention to the world of college athletics. She got her start at Vanderbilt University, where she was the assistant athletic director for compliance from August 1994 to November 1996. From there, she worked as an assistant and later associate commissioner for the Southeastern Conference in Birmingham, Alabama, from November 1996 through August 2002. In 2002, she relocated to Indianapolis to work in the home office of the NCAA, where she was responsible for coordinating Division I initiatives through the NCAA governance structure, as well as helping to manage the Division I agenda. She was also a liaison to governance representatives, external constituent groups and NCAA staff regarding legislative and governance activities. After seven years with the NCAA, she made her way back to the South and took the commissioner position for the OVC in 2009. The conference has seen several changes under DeBauche’s leadership, including expanding the conference to 12 member institutions, the implementation of a revised governance structure to enhance efficiencies and collaboration and the launch of a branding initiative and the league’s first tagline: “Inspiring Excellence Since 1948.” She also negotiated the largest national media contract in league history and played a key role in upgrading the OVC Digital Network to HD video and expanding viewership. During DeBauche’s time with the OVC, student-athletes have achieved high levels of success, not only on the field, but also in the classroom. The league has consistently seen a record number of honorees on the OVC Medal of Honor and OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll. In order to help students succeed, DeBauche sponsors comprehensive leadership programming for OVC student-athletes and coaches through on-campus summits. DeBauche serves on the NCAA Committee on Academics, the National Letter of Intent (NLI) Appeals Committee and is the Vice President of the Collegiate Commissioner’s Association (CCA). She has served on the Committee on Institutional Performance, the Division I Strategic Vision and Planning Committee and the Division I Management Council. She is also the FCS representative to the “Coalition To Protect the Student-Athlete Experience” communications steering committee and serves as the FCS liaison to the FCS AD’s Association. She is a board member with the Nashville Sports Council, the Nashville YWCA and the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, a member of the Nashville Rotary, the International Women’s Forum of Tennessee, and a graduate of Leadership Nashville.

Kate Barnett - Asst. Commissioner/Championships & Compliance Barnett began her role as Assistant Commissioner for Championships and Compliance in September 2016. Barnett joined the OVC after serving as the Director of Championships at the Southern Conference for two years (2014-16). There she was directly responsible for the coordination of 13 Southern Conference championships. In her role she served as the liasion for several sports, facilitated the championship bid process and collaborated with other staff members on the marketing, promotions and sponsorships fulfillment for each championship. Prior to joining the Southern Conference Barnett was an intern for the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) during the 2013-14 academic year. There she assisted with the management of the Division 2 Athletics Directors Association (D2 ADA), the Minority Opportunities Athletic Association (MOAA) and the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA).

Programs were created to bring women’s sports into focus; to directly address issues of disparity between men’s and women’s sports coverage, participation, and support; and to empower young females by enabling them to become leaders within their own communities. “Our local organizing committee pledged to support the legacy of women’s basketball and women’s sports before, during and long after the 2014 Women’s Final Four in Nashville,” said Vice Mayor Diane Neighbors, Chair of the Women’s Final Four Legacy Committee and Co-Chair 2014 Women’s Final Four Board of Directors. “It has been a pleasure to watch the results of our legacy efforts in Middle Tennessee and we are proud to continue to support these programs that will greatly affect young people in our community.” The programs began in 2013 as part of NLOC’s legacy initiatives and will continue with this new funding and included: Lipscomb University’s Nelson and Sue Andrews Institute for Civic Leadership’s “Music City Girls Lead!” mentorship program, Metropolitan Arts Commission future programs that empower young girls, Champions 4 Women events, Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame, Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee as well as enhanced media coverage for women’s athletics that sprang forth from the Women’s Final Four.

TEAM NOTES • Picked 11th in the 2017-18 preseason coaches poll, Austin Peay finished last year with a 12-6 OVC record to finish third in the regular season. The Governors No. 3 seed for the OVC Tournament was the best for the program since 2011. • In year No. 1 under Matt Figger, APSU limited its opponents to 71.9 points/game after allowing 83.8 points/game the season before. • For the first time since 2012, the Govs will travel out of the country for regular season contests as part of the Jersey Mike’s Jamaica Classic in Montego Bay. It will be just the fifth regular-season appearance for Austin Peay outside the contiguous 48 states; the Govs also competed in Cancun, Mexico (2012), St. Thomas, Virgin Islands (2004), Anchorage, Alaska (2000) and Honolulu, Hawaii (1996), going 5-5 in those contests.

TEAM NOTES • Guard Terrell Lewis was injured during the early part of the 2017-18 season and granted a fifth-year of eligibility by the NCAA. Prior to the injury last season Lewis became just the ninth player in Ohio Valley Conference history to join the 1,000 point, 500 assist club for their career. • Sophomore Mack Smith was named to the OVC AllNewcomer Team as a freshman during the 2017-18 season. During the year Smith set the EIU freshman record for single game scoring with 31 points against Tennessee Tech. He would rank in the OVC in 3-pointers made for the season. • The Panthers lost quite a bit of production from last year’s team as EIU had an average of 50.4 points per game leave the program. The team’s top returning scorer is sophomore Mack Smith at 12.4 points per game. Guard Terrell Lewis averaged 9 points per game prior to his season ending injury. The other four returning players averaged a combined 5.8 points per game.

TEAM NOTES • With a 23-13 record last season, Jacksonville State head coach Ray Harper became the program’s first Division I head coach to lead the Gamecocks to back-to-back 20-win seasons. It was just the third 20-win season in the program’s D1 history and was the first time a Gamecock squad claimed back-to-back 20-win campaigns since Bill Jones accomplished the feat at the D2 level in 1990-91 and 1991-92. • Jacksonville State’s 23 wins in 2017-18 set the program’s Division I record for wins in a single season. The previous high was 20, set in 2002-03 under former head coach Mike LaPlante and repeated in 2016-17 under Harper. • Senior Christian Cunningham enters the 2018-19 season with 161 career blocks and 619 career rebounds. He looks to break the program’s Division I record for career rebounds, currently 679 by Nick Murphy, and career blocking record, held by Amadou Mbodji with 162..

TEAM NOTES • Last year, UT Martin produced four different players who collected an Ohio Valley Conference weekly accolade, which tied the 2008-09 squad for the second-most OVC weekly award winners in school history. Fatodd Lewis won Player of the Week while Delfincko Bogan (Newcomer of the Week), Parrish Hewitt (Freshman of the Week) and Dominique Williams (Newcomer of the Week) also earned the OVC spotlight. • Fatodd Lewis became just the fourth different player in school history to record a triple-double when he recorded career-highs of 34 points, 16 rebounds and 12 assists against UC Clermont on Dec. 10, 2017. The Skyhawks have had a player tally a triple-double in three of the last four seasons. • Delfincko Bogan’s 1.9 steals per contest in 2017-18 led the Ohio Valley Conference, as he became the first Skyhawk to pace the league in that category since twotime All-American Lester Hudson accomplished the feat in 2008-09.

For the second-straight year the Ohio Valley Conference Men’s and Women’s Basketball Championships will be held at the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana. The Ford Center, which opened in 2011, is a 11,000-seat arena located in the core of Evansville’s downtown district. The 290,000-square foot facility serves as home of the University of Evansville’s men’s basketball team as well as the Evansville Thunderbolts of the Southern Professional Hockey League and the Indiana Freebirds of the National Gridiron League (NGL). The Ford Center also serves as host to numerous sporting events and concerts on an annual basis. For the ninth year in a row all eight men’s and all eight women’s teams that qualify for the tournament field gather at a single site for the entire tournament (instead of first round games being played on campus sites). In 2011 the bracket shifted from a traditional 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc. format to a merit-based format that rewards the top teams during the regular season with byes into the quarterfinals and semifinals. The first round of the men’s tournament will feature the No. 5 seed against the No. 8 seed and the No. 6 seed against the No. 7 seed. The winners of those games will advance to the quarterfinals to face the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds (who received a bye). The winners of those quarterfinal matchups will advance to the semifinals to face the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds (who received a pair of byes). The women’s tournament changed formats in 2015, doing away with the merit-based format; the women’s teams now play in a traditional 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc. bracket. The 2019 Championship marks the 56th time the men’s event has been held, making it the fourth oldest Division I championship in the country (behind only the Southern, ACC and SEC). Future OVC Basketball Tournament dates are March 4-7, 2020. Last season Murray State topped Belmont in the Championship game to win its OVC record 16th championship.

TEAM NOTES • The Racers return just five players and two starters from a year ago with perhaps the biggest hole to fill being left by the 2017-18 OVC Player of the Year Ke’Shunan James. With just four players returning that saw action last season, MSU will look to replace 79.6 percent of its 70.1 points per game in 2017-18. • Head coach Rechelle Turner enters her second year at the helm of the Racers, after guiding them to the OVC tournament and coach the OVC Player of the Year in her first season. Before becoming a highly successful coach at the high school level, Turner played three years for the Racers in addition to being a member of MSU’s inaugural golf team coached by current head women’s golf coach and interim director of athletics Velvet Milkman. • Murray State will have eight new faces this season including Evelyn Adebayo, who sat out due to NCAA transfer rules last year, the hometown trio of Lex Mayes, Macey Turley and Alexis Burpo, junior college transfers Cekeya Mack and DeAsia Outlaw, among others.

TEAM NOTES

• Tech was one of the OVC’s best last season in terms of cleaning the glass on the defensive end, ranking second with 34.6 defensive rebounds per game. It must now replace the largest contributor to that effort, as it lost Yaktavia “Shug” Hickson – and her team-high 6.0 rebounds per game – to graduation in May.

• Tennessee Tech returns three of its top four scorers in underclassmen Jordan Brock (11.3), 2017-18 OVC All-Newcomer selection Mackenzie Coleman (10.9) and Kesha Brady (10.5). All three players also averaged more than 27 minutes per game in 2017-18. • Starting point guard Akia Harris returns to the fold as well for the Golden Eagles. The Chattanooga, Tenn. native took good care of the basketball last season, ranking fourth in the OVC with a 1.5 assist-to-turnover ratio. She was an accurate yet selective three-point shooter, knocking 29 triples on 74 attempts for a .392 clip – the fourth-best mark in the conference.

The 2019 Ohio Valley Conference Women’s Basketball Championship will be held at the Ford Center in Evansville, Ind. for the second time. It marks just the third time since the women’s tournament moved to a neutral site that it will be held outside the city of Nashville. In 2002, the tourney was held in Louisville. Beginning with the 2011 OVC Women’s Basketball Championship the bracket gave the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds double byes to the semifinals and the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds single byes to the quarterfinals. The schedule for the 2018 Women’s Basketball Championship will see the No. 1 vs. No. 8 and No. 2 vs. No. 7 seeds playing on Wednesday, with the teams winning those games having an off day on Thursday when the first round games continue with No. 3 vs. No. 6 and No. 4 vs. No. 5 matchups. The semifinals will remain on Friday with the Championship Game still being played on Saturday. Last year saw No. 1 Belmont defeat No. 2 UT Martin, 63-56, in overtime in the championship game. It marked the Bruins third straight tourney title.
