CHARACTER
1 COLOR, WHITE BG
AVERETT ATHLETICS OVERVIEW
Character is of the utmost importance and the first thing that Head Coach Matt Parke looks for when recruiting players for his program. As a part of the men’s basketball program, players will carry themselves with high moral character and be exemplary ambassadors for Averett on the court, in the classroom, and in the community. Men’s basketball players will participate in a large number of community service projects throughout each year, including Special Olympics, the Big Brother Big Sister Program, Habitat for Humanity, and the Boys and Girls Club. Averett men’s basketball players understand that volunteering their time is important, because they realize the positive impact their actions can have on others at Averett University and in the Danville community.
Baseball Averett’s baseball team, which began play in 1997, has been an annual contender in one of the toughest DIII conferences in the country. The Cougars won the 2003 USA South championship and appeared in the NCAA Tournament. The program has produced several All-Americans and pro draft picks. Women’s Basketball The Averett women’s basketball program has risen to the top half of the conference in recent years. The Cougars have four 11-win seasons in five years. Men’s & Women’s Cross Country The cross country programs have seen a steady improvement in recent years. The women’s team has a conference title to its credit.
COMMITMENT Men’s basketball players must be willing and able to fully commit themselves to reaching their potential in the classroom, on the court, in the weight room, and in the Averett Community. Most importantly, members of the men’s basketball program must be committed to graduating. As a part of this program, men’s basketball players are counted on to work extremely hard and compete everyday to be the very best person and basketball player they can be. Commitment also means that members of the men’s basketball program will at times be asked to put the goals of the team ahead of their own goals, because in the end, only the team, not the individual, can be the ultimate champion.
TOGETHERNESS “Together” is the mantra of nearly every Averett huddle and is the way in which the members of the program interact. As a part of this program, the players and coaches are a tightknit, close group that come together to achieve their common goals. Averett players remain like brothers for the duration of their years at Averett University and beyond. The bonds that players form with each other and their school as a part of this program are long-lasting. Men’s basketball alumni show great support for the program and remain Averett Cougars for life.

Men’s Golf The men’s golf program at Averett boasts the 2003 Division III NCAA national championship and has made three NCAA appearances as a team. Men’s Soccer The men’s soccer program, which enjoyed several NCAA Tournament appearances early in its existence, has returned to the top of the conference in recent years.

The Cougars won the program’s first conference championship in 2012 and made their first NCAA Tournament appearance. Softball The softball program, winner of one conference regular season title and one tournament championship, has two 20-win seasons in the last three years. Men’s Tennis The men’s tennis program has a history of success, ranging from 11 conference titles to numerous All-Americans.

USA SOUTH CONFERENCE
2 COLOR, WHITE BG
1 COLOR, WHITE BG
One of the oldest Division III conferences in the nation, the USA South Conference was born as the Dixie Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in 1963 when six institutions with similar philosophies of academics and athletics joined as founding members. Those colleges were Charlotte College (now UNC-Charlotte), College of Charleston (S.C.), Methodist College (now Methodist University), North Carolina Wesleyan College, St. Andrews Presbyterian College and Lynchburg College. The basis for the new athletic conference was that participation would be strictly amateur, and thus no athletically awarded financial aid or athletic scholarships would be awarded. That philosophy still exists today. In February 2003, it was announced that the Dixie Intercollegiate Athletic Conference would change its name to the USA South Athletic Conference. The name change was made official on July 1, 2003, and the first USA South Athletic Conference championships were awarded in the fall of 2003. The Conference was originally affiliated with the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and remained with that affiliation until 1973. At that time, the NCAA divided into three legislative and competitive divisions, with Division III allowing membership for nonathletic scholarship institutions only. The Dixie joined the NCAA, and in so doing, became one of the first conferences accepted into Division III. Since the inception of Division III, the USA South has been a leader in many areas, and has gained an outstanding regional and national reputation in a number of sports. The Conference sponsored athletic programs for men only until 1981. In that year, the NCAA expanded its sponsorship to include women’s sports, and the Dixie followed that lead by including women’s sports. The Conference now sponsors championships in men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer,

women’s volleyball, football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, golf and women’s lacrosse for a total of 14 sports. Presently, the Conference features 13 institutions, four in Virginia, five in North Carolina, three in Georgia and one in Tennessee. Averett University, Christopher Newport University, Ferrum College, Greensboro College, LaGrange College, Mary Baldwin College, Maryville College, Meredith College, Piedmont College and William Peace University have joined Methodist and N.C. Wesleyan and make up today’s conference full-time membership. Maryville became a competing member of the Conference in the fall of 2005 as a football only member and joins the conference as a full-time member in 2012-13, along with LaGrange and Piedmont. Agnes Scott College compete in women’s lacrosse only. The USA South announced in May 2012 that Covenant College and Huntingdon College will join the conference in 2013-14. Christopher Newport is leaving the USA South following 2012-13 in all sports except football.
