“I've decided to return to college. Not any college. Just Davidson.” Lenn Robbins, New York Post

THE NEW IVY? Davidson College was recently named one of 25 “New Ivies” by Newsweek magazine, along with New York University, the University of North Carolina, Vanderbilt, the University of Virginia and UCLA. The magazine selected the schools based on admissions statistics as well as interviews with administrators, faculty, students and alumni.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Davidson students explore the liberal arts curriculum in depth and enjoy close faculty collaboration. With 1,900 students, the college is large enough for a diverse intellectual engagement, but small enough to foster individual experience. Davidson offers over 850 courses and supports 21 majors and 12 academic concentrations. Students may participate in pre-law, premedicine, pre-dentistry or dual-degree engineering programs or may design their own independent study classes or interdisciplinary majors. Students may also apply for funds to support research and travel, and many opportunities exist for summer research positions with Davidson faculty. Personal relationships with professors and classes limited to 20 students allow for the development of creative, collaborative relationships, resulting in a unique academic experience. With the Dean Rusk International Studies Program, 12 Davidson-directed study abroad programs and off-campus study programs in 17 locations worldwide, more than 70 percent of students graduate with experience abroad.

23 RHODES SCHOLARS Davidson counts 23 Rhodes Scholars amongst its alumni. Established by the late Cecil Rhodes in 1902, the prestigious scholarship provides support for study at England’s Oxford University for students from around the world who are outstanding intellectually and show qualities of moral leadership and social purpose.

AFFORDABILITY Davidson is a national leader on affordability initiatives, with need-blind admission and meeting 100 percent of demonstrated financial need with a combination of grants and student employment. In a ground-breaking initiative known as the Davidson Trust, Davidson was the first liberal arts college to eliminate the loan component in financial aid packages. Davidson believes that its educational offerings should be affordable for every admitted student, regardless of a family’s financial means. Thanks to Davidson’s commitment to need-blind admission, a student’s character, accomplishments and academic potential are the only factors in the decision—not ability to pay. 5

BAKER SPORTS COMPLEX The Baker Sports Complex is the centerpiece of the Wildcats’ athletics facilities and the heart of Davidson basketball. In addition to the 5,223seat John M. Belk Arena, the complex includes the Carl and Louise Knobloch Tennis Center, Cannon Natatorium, Dickson Administrative Wing and Finley Education Center, plus the Charles W. Parker Wrestling Room, a weight room, sports medicine center, four racquetball courts and one squash court. It also houses the athletic department offices. Named in honor of the late John M. Belk ’43 — a former captain of the Wildcats’ teams, a Davidson College trustee for more than 15 years and former mayor of Charlotte, Belk Arena is the home of men’s basketball program at Davidson College. Ten NCAA Tournament banners, numerous Southern Conference championship pennants, five NIT flags and retired jerseys with the names Hetzel, Snyder, Gerdy, Cobb and Rucker hang from the rafters that reflect Davidson’s proud basketball history. The Wildcats have enjoyed tremendous success in Belk Arena, posting a winning record on their home court for the past 19 seasons — including a perfect 13-0 slate in 2003-04 and 12-0 in 2007-08. The Wildcats have won 107 of 123 home games over the last eight seasons and currently boast a 215-65 (.768) overall record in Belk Arena. That record is even more impressive since rejoining the SoCon in 1992-93 at 198-42 (.825). As the Wildcats have hosted some of the nation’s top teams, including opponents from the ACC, SEC, Big East, Atlantic 10 and Conference USA, Belk Arena has become a sanctuary for the ‘Cats.

TEAM ROOM

TRAINING ROOM

The Wildcats’ team room includes a film room as well as a players’ lounge.

Davidson staffs six fully-licensed athletic trainers. Ray Beltz works directly with the men’s basketball program, which also relies on team doctors, Dr. Don D'Alessandro and Dr. Karl 'Skip' Barkley.

HEAD STRENGTH & CONDITIONING COACH CRAIG SWIETON

The Wildcats’ head strength and conditioning coach, Craig Swieton, carries out the goal of Davidson’s strength and conditioning program — to increase the strength, power, speed, conditioning levels and flexibility of all student-athletes, helping reduce the risk of injury. Each team’s program, specifically designed by Swieton and assistant strength and conditioning coach Tim Ridley, aims to improve the sport energy utilization system and to increase the strength and power to the primary muscle groups used in that specific sport. In the fall of 2005, Davidson opened the Ernie Doe Weight Room, a state-of-the-art 5,000-square-foot facility dedicated to the needs of the college’s 21 varsity athletic teams. The weight room includes 16 power racks and eight lifting platforms, as well as other cutting-edge lifting and conditioning equipment to train the whole body. Prior to his arrival at Davidson, Swieton served most recently as an assistant strength and conditioning coach at Central Michigan, where he was a graduate assistant as well from 2003-05. During his career, he also helped coordinate the strength and conditioning program at Duquesne. Swieton started his career as an intern at Syracuse in the summer of 2003 working with the football team. The Frankfort, N.Y., native earned a bachelor’s degree in applied exercise science from Springfield College in Springfield, Mass., in 2003. He was a member of both the football and track and field teams. Swieton is a member of both the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association (CSCCA). Additionally, he is a level one certified club coach through USA Weightlifting. He is currently pursuing a master’s degree in sport administration.

SEASON PREVIEW DEPTH, VERSATILITY SHOULD HELP WILDCATS MAKE A RUN Now in his 22nd season as Davidson’s head basketball coach, Bob McKillop has seen just about everything the sport can dish out. Some of it bitter, mostly sweet. The vagaries of the college game are as compelling as they are challenging, which serves to keep McKillop fresh and in search of innovative ways to best coach each particular team. Just in recent years, McKillop has experienced losing seven seniors to graduation only to come back the next year and go 17-1 in the Southern Conference, even though the experts in the preseason picked his team to finish fourth in the South Division. He rode a tidal wave of excitement in 2008 as Stephen Curry, Jason Richards, Thomas Sander and a strong supporting cast captured the nation’s fancy by leading the Wildcats to the Elite Eight, only one measly basket from the Final Four. Last season was the Year after Curry, and Davidson traveled a rocky road to finish 16-15 overall and 11-7 in the SoCon. It wasn’t a poor season by any means, but it was frustrating. At several junctions, it appeared the team was on the verge of breaking out and doing special things only to hit a speed bump and drift back, momentum lost. The year came to a close on a lovely March afternoon in Charlotte when Elon bumped the Wildcats out of the SoCon tourna-

ment, thereby ending the program’s hopes of continuing its tradition of playing basketball late into March. The sudden end to the season left a sour taste – and a strong resolve for 2010-11. Even though Davidson lost four seniors from last year’s team – Will Archambault, Bryant Barr, Steve Rossiter and Dan Nelms – there is ample excitement in the village as McKillop fields one of the deepest and potentially talented teams that he’s had at Davidson. That’s on paper, of course; the games are played on hardwood. There’s only one senior on the team (Brendan McKillop), which means the team is a blend of mostly young players that have extraordinary potential. “Because of the different skill levels of our players, I believe this is one of the deepest and most versatile teams we’ve had at Davidson,” McKillop said. There are many reasons why he can say that and be comfortable with it. He has four players on the team, for instance, who could play point guard and do it well. He could put a lineup of four guards on the court at one time and feel good about its chances. His big men are athletic and skilled enough to play with their back to the basket or step out to the 3-point arc.

He has enough of them that fatigue should not be a factor. While McKillop’s preferred defense is manto-man (and that’s not likely to change), he has size and quickness available that might well entice him to mix in more than a token amount of zone. The elements are there that could make this an extraordinary team. It has to be molded, no doubt about it. To win a blue ribbon, McKillop will have to blend the ingredients perfectly. He’s done it many times before, so there’s no doubting on the part of his players. Does the team have question marks? Certainly. Name a team that doesn’t. The Wildcats need to stay healthy, players with vast potential must take it from the practice floor to game night, and Iowa State transfer Clint Mann and the team’s freshmen must adjust quickly in order to make meaningful contributions. They’re capable. While Davidson will miss the experience, competitiveness and skills of last year’s four seniors, statistically, the loss is not as severe as in some years past. For example, when Curry, Andrew Lovedale and Max Paulhus Gosselin left the program two years ago, they took with them 45.6 points and 17.1 rebounds a game. Davidson must replace 23 points and 14.6 rebounds

to play in Davidson games last season. In other words, he hasn’t played much competitive basketball since high school, and there could be some time before he’s up to full speed. That’s not to suggest that Mann didn’t take full advantage of his redshirt year. He practiced with the team, learned the McKillop system, meshed with his teammates on and off the court and believes that he improved his game in all areas. Sitting out a season of competitive games made him realize how much he missed basketball. He’s fired up and ready to roll. “Clint has great potential,” McKillop said. “He was our top recruiting prospect three years ago but decided to enroll at Iowa State instead. He spent last season learning the Davidson system and handled the year quite well. He is athletically skilled and tough. He can score with his back to the basket, off offensive rebounds and can run the court. He can also step out and make the 3-point shot. “There could be some rust on his game at the beginning of the season. He had limited playing time at Iowa State and a redshirt season last year, so it’s been awhile since he’s played competitively. But I expect him to be a real valuable player for us as the season progresses.” JAKE COHEN: He had a terrific freshman season last year as he led the Wildcats in scoring (13.3 points a game) while shooting right at 47 percent from the field and 71 percent from the foul line. He was second on the team in rebounds at 5.1 a game. Cohen, a 6-foot-10 sophomore, has the versatility to score both inside and outside. He spent much of last summer practicing and play-

Standing 6-foot-6, this freshman fits into this year’s mold of Davidson players who have great versatility. “He was highly recruited and showed why in our preseason practices where he was impressive,” McKillop said. “He is big, skilled and versatile and should see time this season at the point as well as the wing. He’s big enough to cause opposing point guards trouble on defense as well as being able to post them up. He will certainly be in our rotation as a freshman.” JORDAN DOWNING: He was a star player along with De’Mon Brooks at Hopewell High. He is 6-foot-5, has long arms, and lives and breathes basketball. He guarded all five positions as a high school player. “He showed in high school and also in our practices that he has a special knack for scoring,” McKillop said. “He can shoot the jumper, slash to the basket, and he can post up and score. His size, strength and athleticism afford him an opportunity to become a great perimeter defender. As he becomes more acquainted with our system, he’ll earn playing time. The talent is there for him to make our rotation as a freshman.” CHRIS CZERAPOWICZ: A freshman who made his way to Davidson from Goteborg,

Sweden. He’s 6-foot-7, weighs 197 and has tremendous strength. He played in the U20 European Division B Championships in 2010 and averaged 11.6 points and 5.8 rebounds. “He has tremendous size and strength for a wing,” McKillop said. “He’s very competitive and had an excellent early fall practice. He had hip surgery in the fall that will keep him out of our lineup until mid-December. His presence on the court would allow us to go to the fourguard lineup as a change of pace. I believe he will be an impact player for us.” The Davidson Way Bob McKillop surveys the Southern Conference and says succinctly: “There will be no easy games for us. I think from top to bottom the Southern Conference is the strongest that it’s been since I’ve been here.” McKillop always tries to build his nonconference schedule in a way that gives his players a chance to play against every style imaginable while putting them in hotly-competitive situations. He believes in having his team tested on the road against good teams in hostile environments. It’s the best way, he believes, to have his team ready to navigate the regular-season SoCon schedule and conference tournament on a journey that quite often winds up with Davidson playing postseason basketball. “We wanted our schedule to put us in position to compete against excellent teams,” McKillop said. “We certainly accomplished that. And we wanted our players to have a chance to play in some famous, historic arenas. We accomplished that, too, as we travel to

Madison Square Garden, the Palestra and Vanderbilt’s Memorial Gym.” The schedule will test the Wildcats, that for sure. They play in the Puerto Rico Tipoff against an extremely strong field and open there versus West Virginia, which made the Final Four last season. There will be road games at Pennsylvania, Vanderbilt, Rhode Island and against St. John’s in the opening round of the Holiday Festival in Madison Square Garden. There will be a road game in ESPN’s BracketBuster series on Feb. 19 against an opponent to be named later. The Davidson-Charlotte rivalry will be renewed on Dec. 11 at Davidson after a two-year recess. McKillop’s preferred style is to attack offensively and defensively. But he might have the weapons this season to throw a multitude of different things at opponents, sort of like a star baseball pitcher with a wide assortment of pitches, some fast, some slow, some medium speed. It’s hard for batters to get a read on what’s coming next. “Because of our depth we ought to be able to play 40 minutes with a great deal of energy,” McKillop said. “We want to run and push the tempo on offense. Because of our size, we can put a big team on the court defensively if we choose, so we might work more zone into our repertoire this season than usual. Of course, the depth and athleticism also makes it possible for us to press all over the court. This is a very versatile team, maybe the most versatile we’ve had at Davidson.”

MCKILLOP WON’T SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS THAN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT The youngest McKillop continues to put in the work to make his last Davidson season a memorable one. DAVIDSON - It’s been a smorgasbord of basketball experiences for Brendan McKillop in his three years of playing for Davidson. He’s seen the good, the bad and the indifferent. His freshman season was one of the most electrifying in Davidson history. Behind Stephen Curry, Jason Richards, Thomas Sander and a splendid supporting cast, the Wildcats made it all the way to the NCAA Elite Eight. It doesn’t get much better than that. His sophomore season was in reality excellent but maybe fell just a tad below expectaMcKillop tions. It’s likely that those expectations – founded on the previous team’s success – were unrealistic. The Wildcats, in what turned out to be Curry’s last college season, were 27-8 and 18-2 in the Southern Conference. Nothing to sneeze at. The sour note was struck when College of Charleston beat them in the league tournament. Davidson went to the NIT where it won at South Carolina before falling at Saint Mary’s (Calif.) And then there’s last season. Brendan McKillop would like to forget it in a way, but he doesn’t want to forget how it felt to close a season with 16 wins, 15 losses and a first-round defeat in the SoCon tournament. “This is my last shot,” he says. “There’s no way I’m going to allow this team to have a season like that. My teammates and I feel very strongly about it. Everybody worked hard to make sure it doesn’t happen again.” McKillop is the lone senior on Davidson’s team. He’s a co-captain along with Will Reigel, but as the starting point guard who played more minutes than anyone on last year’s team (33.2 a game), he’s the recognized team leader. McKillop is the youngest child of Davidson coach Bob McKillop. And since this is Coach McKillop’s 22nd year as head coach, Brendan has never known a winter when Davidson basketball wasn’t a special part of his life. He grew up with it, which makes his last year as a Davidson player extraordinarily important to him. With his father as head coach, his brother, Matt, as assistant coach, Brendan can be excused if he thinks like a coach. When he thinks of last year’s team, one word stands out: “Inconsistency.” “The most consistent team we’ve had at Davidson since I’ve been here was my freshman year,” Brendan said. “We were consistent for most of my sophomore year but hit a few rough

spots. Last year we were far from consistent. We just couldn’t quite get it last year.” To prepare for his senior season, McKillop undertook a highly-disciplined lifestyle in the off-season. He followed a strict diet (improved eating habits) and rigorous workout routine that resulted in a loss of 20 pounds. His basketball training was geared mainly to enhance his quickness and ballhanding. The extensive work he turned in under the tutelage of former Wildcat Jason Richards was, in McKillop’s mind, vital. “Jason showed me a lot of stuff that he learned in the NBA (playing with the (Miami Heat),” McKillop said. “He helped me with my ballhandling, getting to the rim, how to treat ball screens. He’s a good teacher.” (Richards has joined the staff of coach Jamie Dixon at the University of Pittsburgh, the alma mater of his parents). McKillop doesn’t attempt to hide his excitement or enthusiasm when looking at his last Davidson team. He sees a team with young talent, probably the most athletic that he’s played on, and one with more than ample depth at all positions. He’s good at analyzing the play of each of his teammates, which comes in handy for a point guard who needs to know as much about his team as possible. For instance, he speaks of Ben Allison: “He’s one of the best athletes I’ve ever seen in a Davidson uniform. He’s more aggressive this year, attacks the rim, is scoring and getting fouled.”

McKillop thinks he and the team will be quicker defensively this season. That, along with the depth, should allow the Wildcats to apply pressure in waves and from changing attack points. But even though Davidson appears to be more athletic, Brendan McKillop points out that “we will still have to beat people with our basketball IQ.” McKillop doesn’t deal in predicting wins and losses, but he does have a prediction for this team that he feels safe in making. “This team will have a lot of fun playing together. We’ll hit some rough patches – almost all teams do – but we’re a tight-knit group and we’ll get through them. I think we’ll have many great moments together.” McKillop has the advantage of having learned from two of the best point guards in Davidson history in Richards and Curry, both highly effective but who employed strikingly different styles. Whether it was playing against them in practice or working out with them in the summer, McKillop soaked it up. In his second season as a starter at point guard, he’s ready to take those lessons to the court. Much is required of Davidson’s point guard, who serves as the conductor of the basketball symphony. He needs to understand that cuts must be timely and precise, screens must be set at the proper angle, the pass must be delivered on time to the right person at the correct spot on the court. He must know where each player on the court should be, what their responsibilities and roles are. When they wander out of position, it’s his job to herd them back. He calls the offensive and defensive sets. He must know when to push the ball and when to slow it up. When asked to define the point guard’s role, Brendan McKillop says, “He’s the quarterback on the court and must lead the team. It’s his job to control the tempo of the game and be sure that the first pass is an easy one, because if it is the others will also be easy.” McKillop stared all 31 games for Davidson last season and was fourth on the team in scoring at 10.2 points a game and first in assists with a total of 124. Sociology is his major but he isn’t sure what he wants to do. He knows he wants to keep playing basketball beyond Davidson. “I’ll play for a couple of years and see where that takes me,” he says. Does he want to coach? Possibly, but he hears his mother’s words that two coaches in the family is enough, thank you. The goal for this team? “To go back to the NCAA tournament,” he replies. “I will not be satisfied with anything less and neither will my teammates.”

ALLISON SEEMS PRIMED AND READY FOR HIS BEST DAVIDSON SEASON The athletic big man from England is ready to take the next step. DAVIDSON - Davidson redshirt junior Ben Allison is ready for some good times. He feels better than ever. Stronger, quicker and more athletic, that’s the way he felt as he reported for his third season of Davidson basketball. He expects good things after playing last season with a bum shoulder that kept him from fully extending upward or outward. Shoulder surgery last March followed by four months of rehab have him feeling good and flying high. “I’m excited about the season, yes” says Allison with his refreshing West Sussex, England accent. “I feel the successful surAllison gery on my shoulder frees me up to play my best basketball.” It goes beyond that, too. It was a big adjustment period for Allison when he came to Davidson from England three years ago. Everything in America seemed bigger to him: the buildings, cars, servings of food – and especially Boris Meno and Thomas Sander. They were two Davidson inside players that Allison went against in practice, even though he had never played the post during his schoolboy days in England. Allison weighed less than 200 pounds at the time and found himself being moved from one spot on the court to another against his will. A learning experience? That and a dash more. Allison also had to get used to the basketball terminology used in the States. “Get to the elbow, Ben.” Now, where might that be, this elbow? Coach Bob McKillop’s system includes details, details, details. Allison listened and learned, and no one questioned his dedication or desire to improve. But he was like an artist burdened with too much thinking, that instead of painting freely, he painted carefully and by the numbers, trying to avoid mistakes. Basketball players that perform similarly appear to play in concrete shoes. Allison feels free of it. Now his basketball habits are known and are second nature to him thus creating an “unleashed attitude.” He has displayed flashes of absolute brilliance. A dunk in Madison Square Garden against athletic West Virginia players that had grizzled New Yorkers standing at their seats in awe. A baseline drive in Charleston that resulted in a facial for an opposing defender. Some moves in practice that sometimes cause his coaches to turn heads so they won’t reveal the amazement reflected on their faces.

Allison shows this off and it sparks questions from fans and media members. “Why can’t he do it all the time?” It’s a process, thank you. Allison has followed it and his game has improved immensely. You can probably count on one hand the number of big men that Davidson has ever suited up that could match his athletic skills. Talk of all this potential would burden many athletes, but while Allison says he hears it, he maintains it doesn’t bother him. He’s bigger now than when he arrived in Davidson. He stands 6-foot-9 and weighs 223. He believes that much of playing winning basketball is mental, at least 50 percent of it. So the constant talk about his potential doesn’t bother him but does make him ponder. Basketball is not a game of perfection, and good players know how to manage setbacks. “I have to believe that I can do it,” Allison explains, “but at the same time when things don’t go my way, I can’t drive myself into a hole. I can’t allow adversity to get me down. It’s important to live in the moment and play with reckless resolve.” And then he says with the wisdom that experience brings, “It’s much easier said than done.” Allison spent a good bit of time in his homeland last spring and summer. He was going to play for one of England’s national teams but couldn’t because of his shoulder. Nonetheless, of-

ficials in Great Britain assigned a trainer to him several times a week, a man who not only knew how to whip Allison into physical shape but as a graduate student in psychology, understood the mental side of athletics. Allison found the sessions invaluable. He ran sprints for 30 seconds, rested for 30, ran again. He ran distances, did bounding exercises that had him jumping over hurdles from a standing start. There were also sessions about how to silence the mind in order to free the body to do what it’s capable of. It’s amazing what athletes as talented as Allison could do if they would concentrate on the process, on a routine instead of worrying about the consequences of possible failure. Allison is making strides and takes nothing for granted. He prepared himself. College basketball is a privilege and doesn’t come with a guarantee. As he looks back at last season in retrospect, he calls it an adjustment year. “We need to get back to our winning mentality,” he says. “We must be confident when we step on the court that we can win every game. We had it my freshman and sophomore seasons, not so much last year. You gain confidence by playing well and succeeding. Two years ago when we played close games against Carolina and Duke, we gained confidence even though we lost because we had chances to win both games. The confidence carried over into games against our conference opponents.” Allison is pumped about this year’s team. He talks about its great depth, a talented freshman class, good leadership from team co-captains Brendan McKillop and Will Reigel, and excellent team chemistry. His initial goal is for the team to put it together early and get off to a good start to the season and then build on it. “Coach tells us it’s not about arrogance, but we expect to win because we work so hard,” Allison said. “Our players have put in the work. We have a great schedule and a chance to do some good things.” Allison loves the competitive nature of college basketball. His goal since childhood was to play college hoops in the States. He was thrilled when Coach McKillop discovered him in England and offered him an opportunity at Davidson. “The person who usually wins in the post is the one who surrenders last,” he says. He brought no white flags back with him from his summer trip home.

CURRY HELPED ATKINSON GRASP INNER WORKINGS OF DAVIDSON BASKETBALL AJ Atkinson enjoying life on the Davidson basketball team. DAVIDSON - AJ Atkinson hasn’t seen much playing time in his first two years on Davidson’s basketball team, but it hasn’t diminished his love for basketball. Not in any way whatsoever. “I love basketball today more than I ever did,” the junior walk-on said. “I love the competition and get a rush from the game. When other things might not be going well for me at the moment, I know I have basketball to turn to.” Atkinson loves the college life. Likes his classes, the size of the school suits him well and being a member of a basketball team “that is like family” is the perfect complement to his Davidson experience. Atkinson And playing for Coach McKillop, well … “I played pickup with Steph (Curry) when I first got here,” Atkinson recalls, “and he gave me this advice: ‘Trust in Coach.’ I didn’t quite understand what he meant at first, but then I came to understand our team code, ‘Trust, Commitment, Care.’ It drives us on the court and is the essence of Davidson basketball.” Atkinson says, “Coach McKillop pushes us. If we trust him and commit to doing our best, he’ll make us as good as we can be.” Sociology is Atkinson’s major. Long interested in science and the many discoveries yet to be uncovered, he contemplates working for an archaeologist or in law enforcement. The ability cutting edge police departments have to discover the time and cause of violent deaths from the study of human bones is a point of current interest. The time to choose a career will come, though. There’s no rush. Regardless of what path he chooses, Atkinson will be well prepared. He has two more years at Davidson and maybe graduate school after that before he has to make career decisions. His Davidson school work and the prognosis for the 2010-11 Davidson basketball team is paramount on his mind these days. What does he see, for himself and the team? “Desires change a lot from the time a player comes here as a freshman to his junior season,” he explains. “As for personal goals, I hope to have a larger role on the team as a player and leader. I want to serve as an example to our younger guys even if it’s not always on the court, and I want to improve my game.” His team goals are more expansive and might even be described as lofty. “Our schedule

is tough, and we like it that way,” he says. “We have so much talent that I think we’ll have a chance to win every game. My hope is that we make it to the NCAA tournament and have a long postseason run.” Atkinson is a veteran team member now – and Davidson upperclassmen know that with Coach McKillop, it all starts with defense. “I really believe this team has a chance to excel on defense,” Atkinson said. “We have tremendous depth, which means we should always be fresh enough to give an all-out effort. We have the skill to guard well at all five positions on the court. And at Davidson, it’s all about team defense rather than the individual. Our team defense wins games for us.” Atkinson says he’s impressed with the freshman class. It could well be one of the most talented classes McKillop has ever recruited to Davidson. “They’re all good guys, too,” Atkinson said. “They fit right in from the day they got here. They’re going to help us a lot this year.” That doesn’t mean there won’t be a learning curve and some major adjustments. Maybe not culture shock for the rookies but something akin to it. Atkinson recalls his own transition from high school basketball at RJ Reynolds High in Winston-Salem to a spot on Davidson’s roster. He’s still adjusting to the speed of college basketball while also understanding that he has to work much harder year-round to improve his skills. He also knows that if he expects to succeed playing for Coach McKillop, he must take care of details. “We’re taught that if we take care of the little things, then the big things will fall into place,” Atkinson says. “I also think attending to details increases team camaraderie. We don’t take much of anything for granted.” He knows he’s a much better basketball player than he was when he joined the Wildcats as a freshman. His attention to those details has improved, as has his work ethic. “I learned that college basketball takes much more work than in high school,” Atkinson said. “I’ve developed more self-drive and am more of a self-starter.” His summer work consisted of distance running and sprints, lifting weights, ballhandling exercises and putting

up about 200 shots a day. Atkinson wears a size 15 shoe, and many of his summer drills were designed to help move those big feet more quickly in order for him to play better defense. Atkinson is polite, soft-spoken, courteous and has a smile for just about everybody. His Davidson roots run deeper than most because his father, Alvin Atkinson, class of 1981, was an excellent running back for the Davidson football team. AJ played football and basketball as a youth but basketball was his passion. He began playing the sport when he was five years old and stuck with it. “It’s a blessing to be able to play the game and enjoy it,” he says. Understanding his team role and accepting it, while still competing to improve, will again be important for Atkinson. Davidson has more depth this season than last, so winning playing time will continue to be a challenge. But he’ll continue the pursuit with his untiring and valuable work in practice, which is a far more valuable team contribution than the average fan will ever know. Atkinson guards big men and little men in practice. He battles, competes and is always ready to take the next play. It’s exhausting work. His teammates know how valuable his practice habits are to the team, and applaud his unselfish behavior. After all, basketball is not “work” for Atkinson. When he puts on the Davidson uniform, he’s having the time of his life.

STANDING TALL, ARMS UPRIGHT, BEN-EZE IS A DEFENSIVE ECLIPSE A healthy Frank is looking forward to contributing more in his junior season. DAVIDSON - Frank Ben-Eze reported to basketball practice in mid-October with a big smile on his face that reflected joy in his heart. After too many knee surgeries to count, Big Frank was back on the court banging bodies, blocking shots and running around like a colt finally given the freedom to roam. “I feel better than I have in a long time,” he said. “I feel like I’m moving better and with more confidence.” Please join us in knocking on wood. After consecutive years of knee injuries that sidelined him, he’s grateful to have the talent and opportunity to Ben-Eze play college basketball. Many dream of it, but only a small number bring it to reality. Funny thing about Ben-Eze. He’s a college basketball player but not a college basketball fan. When told by the interviewer that the Southern Conference appears to be a strong league this winter from top to bottom, his face revealed perplexity. “I wouldn’t know about that,” he said. Ben-Eze isn’t putting any team or program down; it’s just that he isn’t necessarily a fan of college basketball. He doesn’t follow the sport in the newspaper or watch many college games on television. “If we’re not playing in the game,” he says, “then I don’t have much interest in it.” The NBA’s a different story. Ben-Eze doesn’t camp in front of the television and watch a lot of games start to finish. But he follows the professional game, says he loves the way San Antonio’s Tim Duncan plays in the post and is a fan of Kobe Bryant. “The attitude he brings to the game is what I like,” Ben-Eze says of the Lakers star. “He has killer instincts like Michael Jordan. Those guys put everything they have into the game.” Ben-Eze is an important part of the fleet of battleships that Davidson has assembled for its inside game this year. The Wildcats have an interesting cast of big men that bring

different skills to the court. Ben Allison, athletic and dynamic; Jake Cohen, excellent scorer with an assortment of offensive moves; Clint Mann, tough, good defensively, runs the court; De’Mon Brooks, relentless rebounder, slasher, never takes a play off. Ben-Eze at his best will complement the group with his shot-blocking and rebounding. Furthermore, his big body takes up so much space that he is able to clog up the lane area and make it difficult for opponents to run screens and cuts inside. Standing tall with his long arms upright, Ben-Eze forms a one-man defensive eclipse that is hard to shoot over, pass around or set a screen against. His shirt size is 4XLT and even then the sleeves aren’t quite long enough. In addition to his defensive potential, he would like to at least offer the suggestion that his offense is much improved. He played a lot of basketball last summer against several former Davidson big men who encouraged him to shoot. “I have more confidence in my shot now,” he reports. “Taking open shots became second nature to me.” Like the rest of his returning teammates, Ben-Eze didn’t like the way last season ended, the loss to Elon in the first round of the SoCon tournament. “Do I remember it?” he asks. “I think about it every day. Having the season end like that wasn’t fun. But it’s also in the past. Even if we had won that game, won the entire tournament, we would still have been faced with the challenge of getting better. Basketball players have to get better every day. It’s like Coach says, ‘The next play.’ Our guys have a positive attitude about getting better.” Ben-Eze enjoys the banging and bumping that takes place in college basketball, especially the turf battles that rage inside. Had he grown up in America, he says, “I probably would have been a football player because I like contact.” Ben-Eze is excited about this year’s team. He says all the team’s returning players “are capable,” the freshmen “are good guys and good players,” and “all of our guards can shoot.” He adds, “I feel

great about our team’s chances. We have excellent depth, a lot people who can play, which should help make us more consistent.” Recovering from knee surgery kept Ben-Eze off the court as a freshman until after the season was well underway. He played in 22 games that first year and sparingly in 27 games last season. So while he’s a junior, he is not a highly-experienced player. Plenty of things about hoops still there for him to learn. Ben-Eze came to the United States from Benin City, Nigeria, a similar path to the one taken by former Wildcat Andrew Lovedale. BenEze and Lovedale lived only about 10 minutes apart in Benin City and knew each other back then. They lost contact with each other over the years, however, and when Ben-Eze saw the Wildcats play on television in the NCAA Elite Eight in 2008, he spotted a familiar face. “Don’t I know that guy?” It was Lovedale, who has been a valued mentor to Ben-Eze since Frank arrived at Davidson. “Andrew has been like a big brother to me,” Ben-Eze says. “He’s pushed me in the right direction and given me encouragement.” They played a lot of ball against each other last summer, Ben-Eze getting for his Davidson season and Lovedale for professional basketball in Europe. The young people in Nigeria love to see Ben-Eze and Lovedale come home in the summer. They arrive with basketball sneakers, some jerseys and other equipment, and for the children there, it’s Christmas in July. The two Wildcats share a strong belief that those who have should share with those that don’t. Ben-Eze was first a soccer player growing up in Benin City, a goalie and a mid-fielder. But the moment he was introduced to basketball at age 15, he fell in love with it. He had to walk miles from home to find a game. When his father, a military man, saw how determined Frank was, he scraped up the money and sent him to his first basketball camp. Ben-Eze was hooked. He came to Arlington, Va., to play for coach Joe Wootten at Bishop O’Connell High School. College scouts noticed him there. He strongly considered Harvard, as well as Stanford and Georgia Tech. His official visit along with Lovedale’s advice sold him on Davidson. Ben-Eze’s father, now retired from the military, didn’t talk a lot about basketball with Frank, but did give this advice: “If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well.” With a break or two that would result in good health, Ben-Eze seems more ready than ever to bring those words to life.

REIGEL’S DREAM KEEPS GETTING BETTER AS HE’S NAMED CO-CAPTAIN Reigel earns teammates’ respect by being a leader on and off the floor. DAVIDSON - Will Reigel came to Davidson two years ago and won the chance to walk on to Davidson’s basketball team – which fulfilled one of his long-standing dreams. The news keeps getting better. Along with lone senior Brendan McKillop, Reigel has been selected as a Davidson co-captain for 2010-11. What does the role mean to him? Just about everything. “It’s special and I feel fortunate,” he said. “Of course, when I first came here I wasn’t thinking about something like this. I tried to bide my time as a freshman, work hard and take advantage of any opportunities Reigel that might come my way.” It was during his sophomore season last year that he felt that he might have a chance to grow into a team leader at some point in his career. People began to show confidence in him, thus his own confidence grew to the point that he now feels like he can compete. But in addition to being smart, he’s also a realist with a solid grasp of the issues. “I know I’m not going to score a bunch of points,” he reasons, “but I can play hard and be a leader in practice and in games. Defensively, my goal is to be the best team defender possible. I’m not quick enough to be a shut-down defender, but I can be a good team defender.” Reigel guards just about every position on the court in practice. Although he stands only 6foot-5, he says he enjoys guarding post players. “I like the physical play in the post,” he says. “I have a height disadvantage, but if I dance and keep the opponent from getting the ball, then he can’t hurt us.” One of Reigel’s practice jobs as a freshman was to guard former Davidson star Stephen Curry. The memory brings a smile to his face. “That was a challenge, for sure,” he says. “He could do it all. Now he’s even more explosive, has improved his running and jumping, and if you can believe it, he’s even shooting better. It couldn’t happen to a better guy because he’s special.” Modest and team-oriented, Reigel has to be pushed before he’ll list what he believes might be his own strong suits. Finally, he relents: “Going for rebounds, never giving up on a play until it’s over, leading by example and developing good habits in practice.” His personal goals related to playing time? “I don’t have any. Whether it’s one minute or 40 minutes, I’ll know what’s expected of me.”

History is Reigel’s major. He took a class at UNC Charlotte last summer while rehabilitating from spring shoulder surgery. The shoulder, which feels much better and stronger now, slowed him last season, a frustrating one for him and the Wildcats. “We didn’t play to our expectations,” he said. “We expected to win and we tried hard, but there’s a fine line in college basketball between winning and losing. We never could quite put it together for long periods of time.” What about this year? “I think we have a chance to do something special,” he predicts. “All of our returning players are improved, and we’re deeper at every position. The big guys are healthy and playing great. We’re a lot deeper with our frontline. The same is true with our guards. We have four guys on the team that could play both point and shooting guard. The freshman class is very strong. Tom (Droney) has a chance to step in and contribute right away. He’s a big guard who can handle the ball and get to the basket. Having Clint (Iowa State transfer Clint Mann) will also help us. He’s very intense and gives us a spark and some fire.” Reigel caught the eye of Davidson’s coaches when he played at Charlotte Latin High School. The Wildcats certainly had a recruiting advantage. Reigel’s father, Ernie, a Charlotte attorney, played basketball at Davidson from 197680. When invited to join the team as a walk-on, Will Reigel didn’t hesitate. Reigel isn’t sure what career path he’ll pursue after his school days are over. He says he probably won’t become a lawyer. He worked for a summer at Piedmont Natural Gas Co. in Charlotte and enjoyed it. A career in the energy field is a possibility. Reigel’s basketball style can best be described as unorthodox. He’s not the best shooter or ballhandler or defender on the court, but when you weave together all of his attributes – plus his unselfishness — you end up with a winning player. He has an uncanny knack of being around the ball, wiggling and worming his way through tight cracks to wrestle rebounds away from taller players. And he battles defensively in an effort to make his opponent work hard on each possession.

Reigel has played in a total of 28 games in his two-year Davidson career. That’s deceiving, because he has a “game day” each afternoon in practice. He’s learned a lot in his two years. His ultimate role this season will unfold as the weeks wear on into March. His own expectations are higher now, which is only natural. He feels stronger and quicker than he ever has. His confidence is up. He knows he’s a better player than he’s ever been. He believes his ticket to the court rests in the areas of playing good defense and rebounding. “It takes real effort to be a good rebounder,” Reigel says. “I want to rebound every shot. My goal is to get a 100 grade in rebounding. Even if I don’t end up getting the rebound, maybe I can do something to help a teammate get it.” That last statement pretty much sums up Will Reigel, his character and his game. He doesn’t care about individual statistics or stress over playing time. He’s about winning. His contributions might come in practice, in games or both. But when Reigel’s name is called, he’ll be ready to help his team. There’s no speculation there.

LAST SEASON’S SUDDEN END MAKES COCHRAN EVEN MORE DETERMINED Quietly confident Nik Cochran is ready to increase his contribution this season. DAVIDSON - Quite a few modern athletes do a lot of wolfin’, trash-talking and chest-pounding. Nik Cochran is a dinosaur, a throwback to another era. Nobody plays harder while at the same time doing less to attract personal attention. It’s all about team, winning and unselfishness with Cochran, a Davidson sophomore from Vancouver who did a lot of listening and learning his freshman season. It was a season that saw him play in 28 games, average 3.9 points, two assists to one turnover. He earned more and more playing time as the season went on. When coach Bob McKilCochran lop put him in the game, he knew Cochran would strike a spark by breaking down the defense with his dribble, making a good pass, or just making a good basketball play. Nothing fancy but as solid as Mount Rushmore. Others can have the glitz and flair. Cochran’s leading basketball attributes might well be fearlessness and toughness. For example, when he took a nasty shot to the nose in early preseason practice, it brought veteran athletic trainer Ray Beltz scurrying to courtside. Not only did Cochran not come off the court, he didn’t even consider it. He made no big deal about it. He never does. Once he checked and found his nose still attached to his face, he carried on. “I’ve always played with the idea that it’s best to attack the opponent,” he said. “It seems that most mistakes are made when a player is passive. I try to make a good read and then not be afraid to make a basketball play. In our system that might mean making an extra pass to get a teammate open, but it’s important to stay aggressive.” Cochran is not only a better player than a year ago, but more confident and physically more mature. He knows that he needs his rest and diet is important. He listens as well as anybody on the team. “Listening is a skill that we all need to get better at,” he reasons. Wonder if that’ll ever catch on? Cochran recalls a freshman season of apprehension and uncertainty. He didn’t know what to expect. He had to learn to deal with a myriad of basketball details, fought

to keep weight on during the season, adjusted to the speed of the game and the longer college season. Academically, he quickly learned the meaning of full days and knew he had to manage his time better. Being away from home was cushioned by a support system that he found to be like family. Last basketball season proved frustrating to Cochran and all of his teammates. They would play well, look good — and then hit a speed bump. Time and again it happened. “We’d play well and then give it back,” Cochran recalls. “All of us thought that we were on the verge of going on a roll. Even going into the tournament, I was sure that we were going to put everything together and hit a hot streak.” It wasn’t to be, though. Elon ended Davidson’s season in the first round of the SoCon tournament. There would be no postseason basketball for the Wildcats for the first time in six seasons. Cochran won’t forget the feeling, doesn’t want to. He learns from experiences, the good and the disappointing. “I felt a lot of sadness after that game,” he says. “I felt worse for the seniors, especially Steve (Rossiter), than for myself. None of us want another season to end like that one. I think our resolve is stronger.” Cochran’s parents came to Charlotte for the tournament last year. The day after the tournament dawned quietly and beautifully on the Davidson campus, one of those pre-spring days that make living in North Carolina a treasure. As Cochran and his parents strolled the grounds, he wished he could suit up and go to practice. Few

things in sports match the finality that marks the end of basketball season. It’s a thundering exclamation point that signal dreams are either over or are put on hold. In Cochran’s case, the dream was delayed. Basketball is important to him. Sure, he has his life in perspective, but basketball “has been pretty much everything to me since sixth-grade.” He played ice hockey, basketball, soccer and baseball growing up. He liked them all but basketball stood out. He spent hours in the gym. One of the things that appealed to him is that he could play and practice basketball even when he was in the gym alone. “There is so much competition in basketball,” he says, “so many games within the game. Players that try to shortcut the game are exposed.” College basketball careers fly by. Cochran has used up 25 percent of his. It wasn’t wasted. He said the playing time he received last season – a little more than 12 minutes a game – made his confidence soar. “I believe our team can be very good, but it’s up to us,” he said. “Our players are confident, unselfish, and every player is looking out for the team. We have a good freshman class and more depth than any team I’ve been on.” Cochran followed former players Max Paulhus Gosselin and Will Archambault to Davidson. All three played for coach John Dangelas at Champlain St. Lambert. Cochran averaged 23 points as a high school senior. His excellent play resulted in him being named a Quebec All-Star in 2009. Cochran considered Eastern Kentucky and George Mason along with Davidson when deciding on a college. He sat in on practice on his official Davidson visit and was impressed with the teaching, intensity and how hard the players worked. “I saw how hard I’d have to work if I came here,” he said. “It appealed to me because I want to be pushed.” With the freshman year under his belt, Cochran is set to roll. He split time in the summer between home and Davidson and worked hard on his conditioning and basketball skills at both venues.Coach McKillop told him to work hard on defense: move your feet, no middle penetration, no open shots, box out and chase rebounds. Cochran also worked on ballhanding and put up a lot of shots. He put the work in. No surprise there. Basketball might expose him in some areas, but it won’t be because he took shortcuts. Not Nik Cochran. Shortcuts are not what he’s about.

SUMMER OF INTERNATIONAL HOOPS GAVE COHEN’S CONFIDENCE A BOOST After spending the summer with the Israeli U20 team, an improved Cohen is ready to lead the Wildcats. DAVIDSON - Jake Cohen’s freshman basketball season was nothing to sneeze at. He led Davidson’s scoring at 13.3 a game, was second in rebounding at 5.1, shot nearly 47 percent from the field and 71 percent from the free throw line. Impressive statistics. The accolades followed. Media members covering the Southern Conference named him the league’s Freshman of the Year. He was also on the SoCon All-Freshman team. And he should be much improved this year, especially after the summer he had playing for the U20 Israeli National Cohen Team in the European Championships in Austria. He was in Israel for five weeks training for the event, which exposed him to different styles and methods while at the same time giving him the chance to play against excellent competition. After all that, Cohen knows the definition of physical basketball. The Israeli U20 team finished fifth in the competition among 17 teams. Cohen experienced a different style of play, a culture that was new to him and even new basketballs that were so slick they were hard to hold. “My first week there,” he recalls, smiling, “my teammates must have thought that I was an awful player.” If so, they learned otherwise. Cohen averaged 20 points and eight rebounds a game. The competition was intense and the national pride on his team was strong. “We were playing for Israel,” he said, “and I didn’t want to disappoint anyone.” The Israeli team used a lot of pick-and-roll (Cohen had to defend a lot of it, too) and motion on offense. “The game is officiated differently over there,” Cohen said. “Posting up and off the ball, you could get away with just about anything. On the ball, the calls were extra sensitive and they would call a foul on just about anything.” Overall, a terrific experience for him. The more success he had, the more his confidence soared. He faced up a lot on offense and improved greatly in that area. He found it was each man for himself going for rebounds – all of it extremely physical. His team used mostly man-toman principles defensively, but instead of forcing baseline the way Davidson does, they forced middle. If a defender needed help, a teammate was expected to be in position to help. No excuses,

please. “It was a great time,” said Cohen, who was the only American on the Israeli team. “All of my teammates were very accepting and treated me well. I was lucky to be on a team with all good guys.” Cohen returned to his Pennsylvania home on July 29. He got about three weeks of physical workouts at home before returning to Davidson for his sophomore year. He came back stronger, more confident – and wiser. His freshman season turned out to be a crucial learning experience. “Now I’m used to the speed of the college game and the intensity,” he said. “It was different coming in last year. All the practice in the world won’t prepare (a freshman) to open the season against Butler in Hinkle Field House. I’m better prepared now.” Cohen reported to preseason practice saying he felt fresh, strong and in good physical condition. He worked hard on his stamina and strength, which he thinks will make him a better defender. As for his Davidson team, he has high expectations. “I love what my teammates did to improve since the end of last season,” he said. “All of them are better players. The freshmen are looking good and are great guys to have as teammates. I think we have the ability and talent to play against anyone, and as a team, we believe we can beat anybody.” Looking back to his freshman season and the results, Cohen isn’t hanging his head or feeling dejected.

“I have no regrets,” he explained. “We played hard and tried our best, but things didn’t go quite as well as we wanted. Losing the first game in the tournament last year left a sour taste, but it also motivated me to work hard, get better – and not let it happen again.” Cohen, 6-10, from Berwyn, Pa., was a leading prospect coming out of Conestoga High School. Davidson won the recruiting battle against the likes of Penn, Penn State, Stanford and California. Davidson jumped onto Cohen’s radar as he watched them get to the Elite Eight in 2008. “I knew Davidson was a very good school that played basketball at a high level,” he said, “and that’s what I was looking for.” Ironically, Davidson opens at Penn this year in the Palestra, which is a 30-minute drive from Cohen’s home. It’ll be homecoming for him. Many things went into the mix to help Cohen choose Davidson. He went to a large high school so the thought of going to a small college appealed to him. He was impressed with his visit to Davidson, all facets of it, especially the way the players treated him. “I like the sense of community at Davidson,” Cohen says. “It’s a neat college town, and basketball is very important to the people that live here. I enjoy going to college where I know most of the people on campus.” Cohen had a dramatic growth spurt that turned his basketball world upside down. He stood 6-2 in the eighth grade but grew to 6-6 in the ninth. Lot of basketball people started paying attention. Cohen’s goals going into his freshman season at Davidson were to work hard, improve and help the team. He did all three. Davidson’s coaches love Cohen’s versatility, his ability to bang inside as well as float outside and knock down jumpers. He says one of the things that attracted him to Davidson was Coach McKillop’s playing style, which includes letting certain big men shoot from the top of the key. He likes the tough schedule that Davidson faces out of the conference as well as the traditional battles with SoCon teams. In a span of a year, Cohen experienced his freshman season of college ball, a summer of international play with the Israeli U 20 squad and some rigorous physical conditioning. Now he’s a seasoned sophomore and looking for more. Like some March basketball, for instance.

KUHLMAN’S STELLAR FRESHMAN SEASON WAS JUST THE FIRST STEP teaThe sophomore has ‘unparalleled’ work ethic and the will to become one of the great Davidson guards. DAVIDSON - There’s serenity about JP Kuhlman – an inner peace – that frees him up on the court and allows him to play his best basketball without wasting energy worrying about the consequences of the outcome. The late Branch Rickey, a baseball icon with the Dodgers when they were stationed in Brooklyn, was considered an expert on hitting. When asked what separates a good hitter from an average one, Rickey explained: “Empty head, full bat; full head, empty bat.” In other words, don’t overthink the game. Kuhlman probKuhlman ably never heard of Branch Rickey, but he nonetheless follows his theory of playing with an uncluttered mind. Poise can be an athlete’s best friend at crunch time, and Kuhlman has it. He also has life in perspective. While basketball is extremely important to him, it is not the most important thing. Faith, family, school, those are priorities. But when he goes between the lines on the court, he plays basketball with passion and joy and loves the big moments that often determine winners and losers. Some players are not comfortable accepting the responsibility that comes with taking the last shot or having the ball in their hands with the clock winding down. Kuhlman seems to like it and showed it as a freshman last year when he started 24-of-31 games, was second on the team in scoring at 12.6 points a game and second on the team in minutes played. It was an impressive season, but Kuhlman still had an adjustment period. He found the college game faster and more unforgiving than in high school. High school players often can get away with mental errors; college players usually pay a price when they make mistakes. Kuhlman had to get used to playing in front of larger crowds and against bigger, stronger and faster athletes. He had a lot thrown at him but at no point in the season did he seem overwhelmed. He worked out regularly in the offseason with the goal of getting better in every phase of the game. “After having a year of college basketball under my belt,” Kuhlman said, “it was easier to know the things I needed to work on most.” Says his teammate Clint Mann: “JP’s work ethic is unparalleled.” Kuhlman continues to feel good about his decision to attend Davidson, which he chose over his other finalists – Belmont and William & Mary. He likes the size of the Davidson student

body, which results in smaller classes, and he has adjusted to the heavy assignments of reading and writing handed out by the school’s professors. He’s thoroughly bought into coach Bob McKillop’s system and says it makes him a better all-around player. “We are well prepared for our games,” Kuhlman said, “because the way we move in and out of drills in practice, it makes practice faster than the games.” Kuhlman learned a lot last year and had much individual success, but he wasn’t satisfied with the team’s final record of 16 wins and 15 losses. “I feel like we could have done a whole lot better,” he says. “That record is not good enough. We expect more than that.” He believes this year should produce more too. More wins, fewer losses. He’s impressed with all of his returning teammates and how they’ve improved, and he sees a freshman class that he thinks is extremely talented. “The upperclassmen last year helped the freshmen get adjusted to college life and college basketball,” he said, “and we hope to do the same for our freshmen this year.” It’s part of the Davidson Way. Kuhlman, who came to Davidson from Providence School in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., is rooming for the second straight year with fellow sophomore Jake Cohen. They shared SoCon Freshman of the Year honors last season. Kuhlman was honored by the league’s head coaches while Cohen was named by media members who cover SoCon basketball on a regular basis. In any event, the award didn’t leave the room. Kuhlman seems to play point guard and shooting guard with equal skills although he says

the point is his favorite position. He averaged 18.2 points a game as a high school senior along with 6.4 assists and 6.2 rebounds. He was selected to the Class 2A all-state team as a senior and made second-team all-state as a junior. His senior year’s team won 27 games, lost only two and achieved a Top-50 national ranking. His team won 52 games during his last two seasons at Providence School and lost only six. Kuhlman scored 1,264 points at Providence, which stands as a school record. He also holds career school records for 3-point shots made (232) and his eight 3-point baskets in one game is a single game record for Providence School. He graduated in the top 5 in his class. He has four brothers and two sisters. One brother, Patrick, played at nearby Belmont Abbey College last year and is now in his first year of medical school at Florida State University. Kuhlman’s father, Peter, played college basketball at St. Leo’s. JP’s brother, Joseph, played basketball at Rollins College in Florida and is in Rome working and studying in a five-year program that will eventually result in priesthood. The JP is an abbreviation for John Paul. With the basketball genes in his family, he didn’t have to leave the yard growing up to encounter some good competition. He and his brothers competed hard and learned to play the game the right way. Kuhlman became aware of Davidson when he saw the Wildcats play in the 2006 NCAA tournament in Dayton against Ohio State and in 2008 during the dash to the Elite Eight. “I was impressed that a small school could beat Gonzaga, Georgetown and Wisconsin,” Kuhlman said. “That was exciting, and I was really impressed with Davidson’s style of play.” It was pretty much love at first sight for Kuhlman and Davidson. “I loved the campus from the first time I saw it,” he said. “There was a great atmosphere throughout the entire campus. I liked all of the coaches and the players were the most welcoming of any school I visited. I prayed about it before I made a decision, but once I visited Davidson, I was pretty sure I would come here to school.” Kuhlman is excited about his sophomore season but keeps things in perspective. He hasn’t decided yet what career path he’ll choose. “I’m interested in med school,” he says, “but no final decisions have been made. I’ll pray about it.” One thing Kuhlman hasn’t put behind him is the loss to Elon in the first-round of the SoCon tournament that ended his freshman season. “That was a big disappointment,” he recalls. “We should have done better. But I think we learned from it, and it certainly motivated us to work hard and not let it happen again.”

MANN DISCARDS ‘REDSHIRT,’ SET TO HELP WILDCATS ROAR The wait is over for sophomore transfer Clint Mann. DAVIDSON - It’s unlikely that anyone looks forward to this basketball season more than Davidson redshirt sophomore Clint Mann. He waited a long year for it to get here. He’s thought about it, anticipated it and trained hard for it. By NCAA rules, Mann had to sit out last season after transferring to Davidson from Iowa State. He practiced with his teammates last season, went through conditioning drills with them, studied tapes, but when game night came, all he could do was watch and wonder. “What’s it going to feel like when it’s my turn?” The waiting’s over, not that last year was wasted. Far from it. “I’m an overall better player than I was when I came here,” Mann says. “I matured mentally, became physically stronger and learned the system through practice and meetings. I exposed myself to Coach McKillop’s system and feel like a veteran player.” Mann, 6-foot-7, brings a variety of experiences to his first eligible season of Davidson basketball. Although he played sparingly during his freshman season at Iowa State, he practiced against some talented players. Last year, he banged heads in practice against Davidson big guys Steve Rossiter, Ben Allison, Frank Ben-Eze, Dan Nelms and Jake Cohen. He helped prepare them, and they returned the favor by making him better. Mann, whose home is Overland Park, Kan., was a top recruiting target for the Wildcats when he played for St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Kansas City. He gave Davidson serious consideration before casting his net into the big sea of Big 12 basketball. He considered Iowa, Creighton, Loyola of Chicago and Davidson before choosing the Cyclones, where he played in 18 games. A chance to play in one of the prestigious high profile conferences can be seductive for a high school player. It didn’t work for Mann. Stuff like that happens. “I knew I needed a change,” he explained. Once he decided to transfer, Mann sought a college that would offer him good academics as well as a chance to play big-time basketball. Davidson and Siena were the finalists. “I have nothing but good things to say about Siena and the people there,” Mann says, “but Davidson just felt right.” A year into the Davidson experience, Mann believes he made a wise decision. He had a hunch that Bob McKillop would be the right coach for

him. “He’s made me a better player and person,” Mann said. “He has such a will to win. Our coaching staff here pushes us to the extreme, but the work is still productive. A lot of other coaches don’t understand there needs to be a balance between basketball and the rest of life.” Mann says he took six official recruiting visits. He saw the good and the not-so-good. The experience made him an ambassador for Davidson basketball. “Nowhere else do players and coaches genuinely care about each other like we do here,” he maintains. “It’s unique here. There’s a drive to win and get better, but there’s a strong concern about how we’re doing off the court.” Mann’s basketball expectations are high, for himself and his team. He believes his redshirt season helped him improve each facet of his game. He’s part of a deep and talented front line. “Our frontline is skilled, athletic and can score,” he says. “There’s not much of a drop off no matter who’s on the court. Coach McKillop has told me that he wants me to play as hard as I can the entire time I’m on the court. You can’t physically sustain that for long periods of time, but we have talented players who can come in and maintain the pace. I think we have an opportunity to wear other teams down. I’m prepared to play as much as Coach wants me to.” Mann is equally as excited about Davidson’s perimeter players. He says Brendan McKillop “should be a great leader,” that Nik Cochran “might be the team’s most improved player,” and JP Kuhlman’s “work ethic is unparalleled.” He sees a Davidson team that should have the capability to score from all five spots on the court, aided and assisted by a talented freshman class. After a year at Iowa State and one at Davidson, Mann found the two experiences to be total opposites. Davidson is a small private school of approximately 1,900 students while Iowa State is state-supported with a student body population of approximately 25,000. “Most of my classes at Iowa State were held in lecture halls, and we had anywhere from 80 to 150 students in each class,” Mann said. “I’ve found the smaller classes at Davidson to be more engaging with more one-on-one give and take. There’s a chance to get to know people on a personal level here.” Mann has two brothers, and they all pounded on each other growing up the way brothers usually do. One of his brothers played in the successful bas-

As for Clint, he knew from an early age that basketball was his sport. “It’s the only one I played,” he said. “I wasn’t any good at the rest of them.” Mann is an English major who “has no clue what he wants to do” after graduation. Plenty of time remains to make a choice. His father is a police officer in Overland Park, and his mother teaches fifth-grade at the same elementary school that Mann attended. Davidson faces an ambitious schedule that will demand its best possible performances if the season is to be the success that Mann and his teammates seek. Now that he’s discarded the redshirt, Mann is more than ready to play under the bright lights. The waiting is over, thank goodness.

ACTIVE AND ATHLETIC BROOKS WANTS TO CONTRIBUTE Local product Brooks happy to be at Davidson and has lofty team goals for the Wildcats. DAVIDSON - De’Mon Brooks is a man of few words. Until you get to know him, that is. Then he reveals a sharp sense of humor and a quick smile. His high school buddies will tell you that if he competes against you and wins, he might even engage in a little trash talking via freestyle rap. “Yeah, it happens,” Brooks says. “My friends and I go at each other pretty hard, and when I win, I have been known to lay a little freestyle on them in the car on the way home. The loser has to take it all day and night.” Winning isn’t foreign to Brooks. He came from Hopewell High in Huntersville where his last two basketball teams went 52-4. Hopewell was 29-1 his junior season, the only loss coming to Mount Tabor in the semi-finals of the state playoffs. “Losing that game killed me, just made me feel horrible. I went home, cried myself to sleep,” Brooks recalls. It’s hard to see how any athlete in any program could be more competitive than Brooks. Says Jordan Downing, Brooks’ teammate at Hopewell and now at Davidson: “His motor is always running. He plays hard, never quits on a play and is an incredible rebounder.” Brooks, 6-foot-7, freshman, is going to make life miserable for Davidson opponents. He’s tougher than a leather saddle and boxing him out on rebounds is akin to controlling a handful of Jello. He set the tone for the way he’s going to play in Davidson’s first full-fledged practice of preseason. He was relentless, attacking the glass, diving for loose balls, challenging shots, making a nuisance of himself on defense. Coach Bob McKillop almost had to tackle him to stop him so he could correct a mistake. But then McKillop added, “I love your aggressiveness, De’Mon. Don’t lose that.” No worries. In a rigorous practice drill, Brooks turned a foot that pained him enough to cause a limp and grimace. “You good?” assistant coach Landry Kosmalski asked. As Brooks limped past without missing a beat, he turned and said, “I’m good.” Brooks was something in high school, averag-

ing 20 points and 10 rebounds as a senior. He committed to Howard University, but when a coaching change was made there, he decided to go elsewhere. He went through recruiting last spring and chose Davidson. Getting Brooks to talk about himself is like getting oil out of the ocean. Come on, De’Mon, describe your game for us. “I’m like a perfectionist,” he begins. “I want to win every possession, try hard and have fun. If someone takes a rebound from me, I feel horrible, but it happens. I go on to the next play.” How many rebounds do you think you can average your first season at Davidson? Slight pause, maybe 10 or 15 seconds, followed by a smile. “Ten or more,” he says. “Rebounding is important. Offensive rebounds demoralize the opponent and defensive rebounds signal the end of that possession. I have big hands and a wing span of a seven-footer.” He’s not bragging, either. He loves basketball, it’s reflected in his tone of voice, his choice of words – but mostly in his eyes. They sparkle when he says, “I love being on the court, getting on a roll, and the game slows down. That’s when it’s fun and worth all the work.” Brooks is an only child. He competed against his cousins as a youngster and never conceded turf even though he wasn’t very tall as a high school freshman. He stood 6-0, but even then he had huge feet – shoe size 16 – and big hands. His friends looked at those feet and nicknamed him “Bootz.” His long-time friends still refer to him that way. He hit a growth spurt – 6-3 as a sophomore, 6-5 as a junior, now 6-7. He’s stronger than a Georgia onion and has an unorthodox style of play. It’s hard to tell that he’s left-handed until he goes outside to launch a shot. His game is inside where he’s adept at rebounding and shooting with either hand. He defends with passion and searches for ways to mess up the opponent’s rhythm. He’s a pest, the kind of player that when the opposing coach hands out match-ups and says, “You’ve got Brooks,” it’s going to cause groaning and great despair. He won’t be easy to play against, you can rest assured. He used to play some football as a wide receiver but can’t recall when he didn’t love basketball. His favorite current player is LeBron James, but his

His determination is what I like.” Why did he finally choose Davidson? “There were no negatives,” he explained. “It offered the best of what I wanted. I like the coaching staff, the players, the education. My teammates are like my brothers. College has been pretty much like I expected so far. I’m enjoying it.” Let’s talk basketball for just one more minute, De’Mon. Your goals for this year? “To contribute, play my role, to win.” Your dream for Davidson basketball is … ? “To go to the NCAA tournament and go further than the 2008 team.” Do you think Davidson could accomplish that? “I wouldn’t have come here otherwise.” Keep your eyes on No. 24. You’ll be hearing a lot about him.

SWEDISH PREP STAR ANXIOUS TO MAKE HIS MARK ON DAVIDSON BASKETBALL The versatile Chris Czerapowicz hopes his International experience will help ease his transition to the college game. DAVIDSON - One of the hallmarks of Davidson basketball under coach Bob McKillop is identifying and recruiting versatile players who are comfortable with and capable of playing more than one position. Such a theory makes it possible for Davidson to play multiple defenses and hit the court with different personnel sets that are hard for opponents to prepare for and guard, while at the same time adding depth to the roster. It seems McKillop found a perfect fit for his system when he discovered Chris Czerapowicz, 6-7, playing for the U18 Swedish National Team and subsequently being named the team’s MVP. It was one of several Swedish National Teams that Czerapowicz played for, which greatly enhanced his basketball skills as well as his understanding of the game. “Chris brings great versatility as a player,” Coach McKillop said. “He can make the 3-pointer, handle the ball well, can drive to the rim or post up and score.” Davidson could possibly see itself playing a four-guard lineup with Czerapowicz on the court. “He has a very high basketball IQ,” McKillop says. “His father is responsible for much of that. He taught Chris well, as did the excellent coaches that Chris had as he worked his way through the Swedish system.” Czerapowicz agrees that his father, Daniel, was instrumental in getting him ready to play Division I basketball in the United States. Daniel Czerapowicz played Division I basketball at the University of Maine and later for Division II Springfield College. His skills led him to a professional playing career in Sweden and Norway and later as a Swedish professional coach, where he was widely regarded as one of the best basketball coaches in the country. Chris can’t remember a time when he and his father weren’t watching basketball together, talking about the game’s nuances, studying tapes and working on basketball drills and fundamentals. By age five, Chris was in love with basketball and knew he wanted to play on a big stage. “My father worked with me on all parts of the game,” Chris says, “including shooting techniques,

ballhandling drills, passing and receiving the ball. We constantly talked basketball at home and watched the top European teams, as well as NBA games and NCAA tournament games on television. My father was a very good coach, and I learned a lot watching games with him.” Chris knew by the time he was 14 that he wanted to play college basketball in the United States. He also knew that before he could realize the dream, his game would have to reach a high level. He put in the work, though he says it was a labor of love. Like many of his young teammates on the Davidson roster, he was first attracted to the Wildcats when he saw their whirlwind tour of the NCAA tournament in 2008 that eventually landed them in the Elite Eight and a breath away from the Final Four. “I saw them in the Elite Eight,” Czerapowicz said, “and wondered how such a small school could go so far in American basketball. And like everybody else, I was impressed with Stephen. How could you not be?” In addition to playing for Swedish National Teams, Czerapowicz played for Sandagymnasiet High School in Goteborg, a school with an excellent basketball program. Saying that he wasn’t the “most athletic player in the world,” Czerapowicz also participated in high school track and field in order to improve his quickness, jumping ability and overall athleticism. Czerapowicz made his official visit to Davidson on Oct. 15, 2009. He says the players and coaches treated him like he was a member of the team. He loved the campus, the basketball facilities and weight lifting equipment and opportunities that he thinks will help him get stronger and continue to improve physically. “I also like the small classes at Davidson,” he pointed out. “Students can get help from the professors when they need it. Coming from another country, that was important to me.” Czerapowicz went through some individual basketball instruction at Davidson early in the fall semester, but did not participate in any of the team’s full preseason practices because he returned to Sweden to have surgery. He says the surgery and his rehabilitation has gone well, and he’s anxious to join the Davidson

Czerapowicz’s bio Before Davidson: Averaged 11.6 points and 5.8 rebounds a game at the U20 European Division B Championships in 2010 • Helped Sweden to a second-place finish • Rated eighth best of European players born in 1991 by Eurohopes • Averaged 18.3 points and 8.3 rebounds a game for Sweden en route to earning MVP honors in the 2009 U18 Division B European Championships • Averaged 12.4 points and 4.6 rebounds in the 2008 U18 European Championships and 11.6 points and 5.4 rebounds in the 2007 U16 European Championships • Averaged 19.5 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.3 assists for club team last season. Personal: Full name is Christopher Czerapowicz • Born Sept. 15, 1991 in Gothenburg • The son of Annelie and Daniel Czerapowicz • Has two brothers, David and Eddie, and a sister, Jennifer • Father played basketball at Maine and Springfield College • Uncle, John, played football at UMass and grandfather played football at Boston University. team in mid-December. “I’m feeling good and doing my rehab four times a week,” he said. “I was careful not to allow myself to get lazy. I’m excited about getting back to school and helping the team.” “I think we have a talented team, and our freshman class is a strong one,” Czerapowicz said. “I don’t follow college basketball that much, but I think our team has a chance to do some good things.” Coach McKillop cautions that it will take Czerapowicz some time before he joins Davidson’s rotation. After all, when a freshman misses all preseason practice and a month of games, he’s going to be somewhat behind. “Chris has a natural feel for the game,” McKillop said, “which will help him catch up faster than most.”

HIGH SCHOOL PREPARED DOWNING WELL, NOW HE’S LEARNING THE DAVIDSON WAY Downing is one of a pair of freshmen who made their way down the road to Davidson from Hopewell High School. DAVIDSON - It’s pretty clear, as you consider the talented freshmen basketball players that came to Davidson this year, that the program’s dramatic run to the NCAA Elite Eight in 2008 had a major impact on recruiting. Jordan Downing, 6-foot-5, a star at Hopewell High School, located just a 3-point shot away from Davidson’s campus, is a case in point. He serves as a prime example of the influence that Stephen Curry and his teammates had on young basketball players. “I knew about Steph before he ever came to Davidson,” Downing recalls. “His reputation as a talented player was known for a good while. I went to some of his high school games when he played at Charlotte Christian, and then when he came to Davidson, I continued to follow his career.” Downing, like fellow Wildcats freshman Tom Droney, was mesmerized as Davidson ran past powerhouses Gonzaga, Georgetown and Wisconsin to reach the Elite Eight in Detroit where they played before nearly 60,000 fans in losing by a scant two points to eventual national champion Kansas. “I saw all the success the team had in 2008,” Downing said. “I liked the way they played together and seemed to get along so well. And Stephen, well, he was so talented and calm.” Downing’s interest in Davidson was hatched. He got to play with and against Curry some last summer. “I learned a lot by guarding him,” he said. “He plays so smart. The way he cuts to the basket, how he comes off screens, he’s so precise. His basketball IQ is through the roof. When I wasn’t on the court, I stood on the sidelines and studied the way he went about playing.” Eric Davis was Downing’s basketball coach at Hopewell High. Davis studied successful college programs, attended basketball clinics, read books written by great coaches and applied what he learned to his own program. “He definitely ran our program like a college program,” Downing said. “He emphasized getting to our spots quickly, run the court each time, and he stressed mental toughness. We worked so hard that sometimes we’d think he didn’t like us, but he did. He prepared us well for the next level.” He must have. Downing’s teammate at Hopewell, De’Mon Brooks, is also on Davidson’s team. A guard from the team went to the Naval Academy, another to Anderson College and a forward to Lenoir-Rhyne. That’s a fine showing for any prep program. But even with that good basketball prepara-

tion, there are major adjustments to the college game for all freshmen. For Downing, he says there are more details to worry about, and endurance is huge because practices are highly-organized and pretty much non-stop. Drill to drill, one station to another, the Wildcats zip through practice with little wasted motion – and not a whole lot of rest. Downing also is adjusting to the speed of the college game as well as the keen competition. At this level, all of the players are talented. There are no plays off. In basketball vernacular, Downing is “long.” Tall for a guard, he has a good defender’s best assets — long arms and the ability to move his feet. Down the road he has potential to become a shutdown perimeter defender. While the versatile freshman guarded all five positions at various times in high school, his most effective assignment was in defending the opponent’s point guard. Downing usually had a size advantage and was able to make life uncomfortable for point guards as they tried to get their team into an offense. Downing is a smart guy. He knows one way to work his way into Davidson’s rotation is to excel defensively. Suits him fine. “I love defense and take a special pride in playing it well,” he says. He was lost at times in preseason practice as he learned that it wasn’t enough just to be on his man; he had to be on his man’s correct shoulder and down in the proper position, either “fat” or “skinny.” In other words, he has to learn to play Davidson basketball. It takes some time and a bunch of hard work. It’s fine with him. He knew what he was getting into. Plenty of schools showed interest in him – Citadel, Xavier, Winthrop. But Davidson was first on his list. “I like everything about Davidson,” Downing said, “the academics, my teammates, Coach McKillop and his staff, even the school colors.” His goals for the season are unselfish ones: play hard, help the team win, keep getting better every day in practice, and be a better player next year than he is now. Originally from Topeka, Kansas, Downing moved all over the place as a young child. He’s lived in Kansas, Texas, Colorado and Georgia. He came to Mecklenburg County in seventh-grade and his parents recently moved to Augusta, Georgia. He’s found the academics at Davidson “rigorous and tough. It makes you learn how to organize your day and balance your time,” he says. Downing is part of a strong freshman class, one that could shake out to be one of McKillop’s best at Davidson. He received a pleasant surprise last spring when his high school friend Brooks be-

Brooks was originally headed for Howard but changed his mind after the coach that recruited him lost his job. Hopewell won a lot of games in Downing’s last two seasons there. They were 52-4 and knocked on the door of a state championship. Downing was asked to carry much of the offensive load during his senior season, to score but to get his points through the team’s offense. Last season, the team played most of the time with four on the perimeter and one inside, which meant it was a team that shot a lot of 3-pointers. Now there’s a new chapter. Downing finds himself on a college team that has exceptional talent and depth. He knows he won’t be the so-called “goto guy” as a freshman, but that’s fine with him. He’s looking to learn, to reach the point that he can play instinctively and create opportunities that will get him on the court. Freshman basketball players are all unique and progress at their own pace. Downing isn’t afraid of hard work. His determination to excel is strong. His first goal was to suit up for the Wildcats. Step one accomplished. It’s impractical to attempt to blueprint how quickly a freshman will improve to the point that he contributes significantly. But for Jordan Downing, sooner or later he’s going to look spiffy in Davidson’s red and black.

DRONEY HAD MANY CHOICES BUT SOMETHING ABOUT DAVIDSON JUST FELT RIGHT The highly-recruited Droney feels right at home at Davidson. DAVIDSON - Tom Droney doesn’t mess around. He was four years old when he started playing basketball. Football wasn’t far behind. He was a quarterback and a good one. Loved both sports, too, equally so. Eventually, he would have to make up his mind – football or basketball. Two of his brothers opted for football and played at a large high school in their hometown of Pittsburgh. Maybe Tom was leaning that way, too, or at least he thought so. Why not? He was big, strong-armed, talented and smart. Perfect characteristics for a winning quarterback. He even looked the part. Then came eighth grade and although it wasn’t scripted, things began to turn in basketball’s favor. Droney took snaps behind an 8th-grade offensive line that wasn’t very offensive. They looked good lining up but once the ball was snapped they couldn’t block a gate post. In fact, part of Droney’s snap count could have been, “Hut-one, hut-two … run for my life.” “I liked football a lot and enjoyed playing quarterback,” Droney says, “but our line in 8thgrade wasn’t very good.” While running full speed trying to avoid the defenders that were determined to knock him into next week, Droney drifted towards hoops. “I’d rather be on the basketball court,” he said to himself while dusting off from another defensive onslaught. Instead of football and a large high school in Pittsburgh, Droney opted for prestigious Sewickley Academy, a small school in the suburbs that had approximately 300 students. Its athletic teams participate in Class A, the smallest designation in the Pennsylvania state school system. Sewickley features rigorous academics and is harder to get into than a bank vault. Students have to be scholastically gifted and then some to gain admittance. Droney not only qualified but excelled in the classroom as well as on the basketball court. Droney earned all kinds of basketball honors at Sewickley. His team his senior year went 29-2, won the Class A PIAA state title. He was all-state, Class A Player of the Year, averaged 21.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.1 assists as a senior. The rest of his awards are listed elsewhere. Suffice it to say that he won more ribbons than the best bull at the county fair. Even though he played at a small high school, he also starred in AAU ball in the summer and stood out at camps he attended near home. That’s where he really came to the attention of college

coaches, with an able assist from Howard Garfinkel, a legendary basketball guru who ran an excellent basketball camp and had a keen eye for talent. Garfinkel saw to it that Droney’s name got out there among college coaches. Did it ever. His hometown university – Pittsburgh – was the first to offer him a basketball scholarship at the end of Droney’s sophomore season. Droney loved the coaching staff there but felt the campus was too close to home. Many other schools were seriously interested: Notre Dame, Penn State, Wake Forest, Boston College and Harvard. He examined them all closely. Made some official and unofficial visits to look them over. Notre Dame came close, real close. Droney went there on a football Saturday, heard the inspirational Irish fight song and thought, “Maybe this is the best place for me.” Hey, the Golden Dome has its magic. Davidson contacted Droney in the summer going into his junior year of high school. Things clicked. The college’s small enrollment appealed to him, as did the gorgeous campus. His Davidson visit went extraordinarily well. “The Davidson coaches and players treated me like I was part of the team,” Droney said. “They were so positive in the way they interacted with each other. I liked the academics at Davidson, everything. I didn’t feel as comfortable at the other schools as I did at Davidson.” Davidson first came on Droney’s radar in 2008, in the NCAA tournament when Stephen Curry and the Wildcats were swashbuckling their way to the Elite Eight with some of the most exciting basketball that a college team could possibly offer. Droney was at his television paying close attention. “I love the way those guys played as a team,” Droney recalls. “It was easy to tell that the players cared about each other. And Stephen was so good and had so much poise …” Davidson cared about Droney and he could sense it. Coach McKillop saw to it that when Droney’s AAU team played, the Wildcats had a coach there to watch. Droney was impressed. Keen interest paid off. “Coach McKillop is a genuine person who knows how to win,” Droney said, “and I could tell that he really wanted me to come here. He’s been successful for a long time, and I decided I wanted to be a part of it.” Droney’s a fast learner. At Davidson’s first official full-fledged practice of the fall, he feathered a pass to the post that was intercepted. The speed of the college game takes some time for freshmen to adjust to. McKillop stopped play and shouted,

droney’s bio Before Davidson: Two-time Fabulous 5 AllStar selection by the Pittsburgh Post Gazette • Scored 1,878 points in his career at Sewickley Academy under coach Win Palmer • Averaged 21.6 points, 7.1 boards and 6.1 assists as a senior and led Sewickley to the Class A PIAA state championship; named state Class A Player of the Year and earned all-state honors • Averaged 23.7 points, 6.1 rebounds and 6.6 assists a game as a junior, earning first-team all-state and Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Player of the Year honors • Tied a WPIAL Championship game record with 40 points in the Class A final against Serra in 2009 • Three-time all-state and all-section • Named to Pittsburgh Tribune Review Terrific 10 three seasons. Personal: Full name is Thomas Connor Droney • Born March 22, 1991, in Pittsburgh • The son of James and Rosemary • Has three siblings, Mick, Pat and Chris. “There will be no soft passes in our gym, Tommy.” A few minutes later, Droney fed the post with a bullet pass that would have slithered through a needle’s eye. “I know I have to get better defensively, but I feel I’m improving each day,” Droney says. “Coach is very detail-oriented so I have to stay focused.” If he follows the path of other college students, Droney will probably change his mind about his major and future career many times before graduation day. He enjoys crime shows on TV and thinks he might like a career with the FBI or CIA. But right now he’s a Davidson student and basketball player, and life is good. Will Reigel, a Davidson co-captain, has already seen enough of Droney to predict: “He’s good enough to step in and help us right away. He’s a big guard who can get to the basket.” Droney says he has no personal goals that would fit into the spectacular category. At one time, he felt he wanted to go somewhere that would allow him to play point guard. But he’s not hung up on positions now. He has the size and talent to play point, big guard or small forward. He is as versatile as anyone on Davidson’s team. If you pin him down and make him reveal a personal goal, it would be, “To get on the court and do anything I can to help my team win.” It’s an attitude that has to make his coaches smile.

MACKAY’S GAME IS A WORK IN PROGRESS BUT HIS SKILLS WILL GET HIM THERE Mackay has found the sport he loves and pursues improving his game relentlessly. DAVIDSON - Davidson freshman Alistair John

Mackay – call him Ali, please – knew a long time ago that he wanted to be a basketball player and play college ball in the United States. He knew it even though where he grew up in Scotland near Edinburgh, basketball was not the game of choice. Not even close, really. So far down the order of preference in the country’s sports culture, it was pretty much a task for a young boy just to find a game. “Most of my friends played soccer or rugby,” Mackay said, “but those sports never really appealed to me. Basketball got very little attention where I grew up.” A telling thing occurred at Mackay’s house in Scotland when he was about seven-years-old. The old family home had a flat roof, and while the whys and wherefores remain a mystery, a basketball was up there. Think about it. A round basketball stayed on a flat roof in breezy Scotland. There had to be a message there. An omen for the young Scot. Mr. Mackay retrieved the ball, gave it to Ali, who made best use of it. He dribbled, passed, shot to an imaginary goal, played one-on-none mostly. It was okay. He enjoyed what he was doing. After watching him and seeing how serious he was about the sport, his parents finally put up a goal at his house. And Ali, who was always tall for his age, was hooked on hoops. At age seven, he knew it was his sport. “I was fascinated with basketball,” he said. There was a professional basketball team in Edinburgh, and Ali got to meet and later know some of the players. Even though there isn’t much media coverage of basketball in Scotland, he found stories about Michael Jordan and marveled from across the Atlantic at some of the things No. 23 had done on the court. “I knew that he had been cut from his high school team at one time but didn’t let it discourage him,” Mackay said. It was inspiration for a young man with a dream. By age 13, Ali Mackay was playing basketball at every opportunity. He made himself familiar with March Madness and loved the excitement and intensity of the American game. “That was when I knew that I wanted to come to America to play college basketball,” he says.

Mackay made his mark in youth basketball in Scotland. His love for the game was such that he seldom turned down a chance to play. Good results followed. He played on Scotland’s national team for his age group since he was 14. He was captain of Team Scotland in the 2009 U18 European Championships. He was a member of the U20 European Division B Championships for Great Britain in 2010 where he was coached by Tim Lewis. Coach Lewis was familiar with Davidson basketball because he had previously coached Ben Allison, a junior on this year’s Wildcats team. He told Mackay about coach Bob McKillop and the small school near Charlotte. After scouting Mackay, McKillop invited him to visit Davidson to take a look at the campus and school, talk with the team’s players and ask questions that were on his mind. The visit came in April when the village is often cloaked in nature’s grandest splendor. Mackay was sold, basketball’s rendition of love at first sight. “I loved the campus from the first minute I saw it,” Mackay said. “The players and coaches were great and made me feel right at home. I wanted a school that had good basketball and strong academics. A lot of schools had one or the other, but not many had both. Davidson did.” Still, coming to Davidson from Scotland was quite a leap. How did his parents feel about their son going to college so far away? “It was hard on my mom,” Mackay said, “but my parents have always been very supportive. They said if this was my dream, go chase it. They urged me to have a backup plan in case it didn’t work out.” Mackay became a Wildcat quickly, on the court and off. He wanted challenging academics and found just the place. “There’s a lot of school work to do and stay up with, which means I don’t have much free time,” he said. “I expected that coming in, so I wasn’t surprised. I’m learning to balance my time.” Mackay stands 6-foot-11, and his weight is listed at 192. Not much bulk for a tall man trying to protect his turf on the inside in American basketball. Mackay eats, then eats, eats some more – and then has a snack. He gained eight pounds in his first two months at school. Don’t be deceived by his slight physique, however. Mackay says he loves the physical battles and won’t back down, even though he’s almost always

Mackay’s bio Before Davidson: Posted 2.3 points and 1.8 rebounds a game, averaging 10.6 minutes a contest in the U20 European Division B Championships for Great Britain in 2010 • Made 8-of-11 field goal attempts • Averaged 11.1 points and 6.5 rebounds a contest for Team Scotland in the 2009 U18 European Championships • Team captain for that club • Has played on Scotland national team for his age group since he was 14 • Named to Scottish Senior National Team in 2009 • Averaged 18.3 points, 12.1 rebounds, 2.6 blocks and 2.7 assists for his club team last season. Personal: Full name is Alistair John Mackay • Born Dec. 10, 1991, in Edinburgh • Has a brother, Grant. outweighed. He showed that in his early Davidson practices as he traded shots with teammates Clint Mann, Ben Allison and Jake Cohen in the post. He has work to do before he’s ready to get playing time in Davidson’s system – but that day will come. He has plenty of basketball skills, make no mistake about it. He can run and shoot and is competitive. He’s a smart young man, very aware. “I need to improve my post defense,” he says, “and I need to gain weight and get stronger.” Basketball had brought him to America several times before he enrolled at Davidson. Coming here was no culture shock. Davidson reminds him in many ways of his small home town in Scotland, even though the people over here do drive on the wrong side of the street. The early returns are in and Mackay says he’s thoroughly happy with his choice of Davidson. He was right there in the thick of things in Davidson’s first full-team preseason practice. It was a high intensity, defensive-oriented, not-a-secondwasted session. Mackay gave as good as he got, although at times, the need to gain weight was obvious. He’ll overcome that eventually. At that first session, he heard it several times, Coach McKillop’s voice rising above the sounds of practice. “C’mon, Ali, toughen up.” Mackay’s father is a police officer back in Scotland. His advice comes in handy: “Stick to the task.”

FORMER JUDO CHAMPION WINS CHANCE TO CONTINUE BASKETBALL CAREER Tormey follows brother’s footsteps as Division I basketball walk-on. DAVIDSON - Clayton Tormey, 5-foot-11, from

Henderson International School in Las Vegas, is a walk-on freshman on Davidson’s basketball team. He realizes he faces a difficult assignment trying to win playing time or a permanent spot on the roster, but it won’t be because of a lack of toughness or agility. He’s a former U.S. National Judo champion and North American Judo champion for his age and weight class, titles he won at age 12. His brother Griffin, who also competed in judo, is both a former team manager and walk-on basketball player at Duke, class of 2008. The Tormey brothers both began judo training at age six, and as they wrote in a special story for the Chicago Tribune, “It’s a big part of who we are.” One can only imagine. Clay should have no trouble being in shape to play college basketball. Watching him practice, it looks like he could run a week without needing or asking for a break. In preparation for judo competition at the international level, he had four to six hours of intensive practice a week. In addition to the formal practices, there was home conditioning that consisted of 300 sit-ups, pushups, and squats each day. To make it a full day, the brothers ran about half a mile up a nearly vertical sand dune that was approximately 300 feet high. Tormey, who no longer participates in judo, placed third in his first international competition and won it all in his second try. He’s such a self-effacing young man that he talks about these remarkable achievements as unemotionally as he would if he were announcing a first-place finish in a fourthgrade spelling bee. His desire to continue playing basketball after averaging 10 points and five assists in his senior high school season charted him on a course to see if he could find a major college program that would give a 5-11 kid a chance. Several colleges that play Division III hoops recruited him, but his sights were set higher. He was admitted to Duke, his brother’s school, but when he asked the coaching staff there if they were going to accept a walk-on, he learned that the talent-laden Blue Devils were set with their

current roster. Why not? They’re defending national champions. Tormey says he hadn’t heard much about Davidson until guess when? The school’s 2008 dash to the NCAA Elite Eight. He followed those Wildcats closely, loved what he observed, and decided to tour the campus the summer before his senior year in high school. “When I began the process of applying to colleges, I learned what a really good school Davidson is,” Tormey said. After gaining admittance to Davidson, Tormey contacted assistant coach Matt McKillop about chances of walking on Davidson’s team. He sent him tapes of some of his games While nothing was promised, Tormey was invited along with several other hopefuls to compete for a walk-on spot on Davidson’s roster. The first competition began with five candidates and was later reduced to Tormey and one other. Tormey was the last one standing and received an invitation on Oct. 8, to join the Davidson team with the understanding that he could dress for home games but would not make all of the road trips. It took him about a second and a half to accept head coach Bob McKillop’s offer. Tormey is so competitive that he detests the idea of not having basketball in his life. He said one of the reasons that he liked judo “was because I found I could win at it. I like winning a lot; in fact, I’m obsessed with winning and competition.” “This is such a solid program with the right philosophy,” says Tormey, who started playing basketball at age five. “Coach McKillop is a great coach who built this program to the successful spot it enjoys. They just do things the right way here, and I think it’ll be fun to see how far we can go.” Tormey says his brother watched a preseason Davidson practice and found it very similar to what happens at a Blue Devils practice. “He said the teamwork, the stressing of fundamentals, and the practices are almost identical,” Clay said. Tormey’s goals as a walk-on are fairly basic: do whatever he can to help the team while doing everything possible to improve his own game. An excellent student, Tormey found out early in his freshman year at Davidson that he would have to take academics to another level.

Tormey’s bio Before Davidson: Averaged 10 points, five assists and three steals a game as a senior for coach Tony Tucker at Henderson International School • Lettered four seasons • Named firstteam all-state as a junior • Valedictorian of high school class. Personal: Full name is Clayton Tormey • Born Sept. 25, 1990, in Chicago • The son of Mark and Carol Tormey • Has an older brother, Griffin, who was a basketball walk-on at Duke • Has been the U.S. National Judo champion and the North American Judo champion in his age and weight class. “Work that I turned in here would have resulted in a grade of ‘A’ in high school, no problem,” he said. “But I learned quickly that ‘A’s’ are going to be hard to come by here.” History was Tormey’s favorite subject in high school, but he has also shown a knack for economics and math. He has plenty of time before having to decide on a major. As for his basketball, he’s thrilled to get this chance. “Every player on the team has been great to me and offered to help me, even before I learned from Coach McKillop that I could walk on,” he said. “We have a lot of talent, and if we mold together and do what we’re told, I think we should have a great chance to win our conference.” Now that he’s a member of the basketball team, Tormey will have his hands full balancing classes, homework, practice and games. “That’s okay with me,” he says, “because I like my days to be busy.” It’s what you’d expect from a kid who used to run half-mile straight up a 300-foot sand dune.

BOB MCKILLOP The excitement in Bob McKillop’s voice, the bounce in his step, the enthusiasm that he brings to the practice court and the continuing goals he has for Davidson basketball are more those of a rookie coach than one who has coached the Wildcats with great success going into his 22nd season. A veteran coach who has led Davidson to some of its most scintillating victories, McKillop turned 60 in July. His reputation as a superb coach is established nationally and his program is respected across the vast universe that is college basketball. There’s nothing else for him to prove, is there? Don’t jump to conclusions. McKillop’s dream for Davidson to reach the top of college basketball’s mountain is alive and brimming with hope and expectations. The years haven’t diminished it. The good and the not-so-good hammer home the point. McKillop knows it’s possible for his Wildcats to win the hearts of the nation and stand toe-to-toe with the nation’s top programs because they’ve done it. Reaching the Elite Eight in 2008 by disposing of giants Gonzaga, Georgetown and Wisconsin before losing by a scant two points to national champion Kansas proves that the McKillop dream is not far-fetched. A lot of people discovered Davidson College and Davidson basketball during that magic run. It continues to pay valuable dividends for the Wildcats in recruiting and scheduling. The not-so-good? Last season’s 16-15 record and disappointing end to the season by going out in the first round of the Southern Conference tournament. No postseason basketball for Davidson after five straight years of stretching the season well into March. It wasn’t a bad season upon reflection. After all, the Wildcats were 11-7 in conference play. They had national runner-up Butler on the ropes late in the game at Hinkle Field House. They were within a made free throw of beating what possibly was Cornell’s best team ever in Madison Square Garden. It’s just that 16-15 is no longer acceptable for McKillop’s program. It’s a standard he set. The head coach wants his team to soar again, to rattle the cages of basketball’s big guys. He’s sold his players on it as an attainable goal. “I’m more energized than ever,” he says, pointing out that it could be a response to what he terms last year’s “slide into the world of basketball mediocrity.” He’s Davidson’s coach — the perfect fit, it seems — this particular man and this academic

BOB MCKILLOP have major consequences in his life. Ironically, it’s the same arena that saw Davidson lose in the SoCon tournament last year. In his college days, McKillop was homesick and ready to do something about it, so he left East Carolina for Hofstra University where he became the team’s MVP and later was inducted into the Hofstra Basketball Hall of Fame. After graduation in 1972, he signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia 76ers but was cut. The 76ers went 9-72 that season. “I was cut from the worst team in NBA history,” McKillop jokes. Humility surfaces in strange ways, sometimes humorously. Reluctantly accepting the fact that his playing career was over, he took a job teaching history and coaching basketball at Holy Trinity High in Long Island in 1972. After a sparkling 86-25 record as coach, in 1978 McKillop was offered assistant coaching positions at the University of Pennsylvania and Davidson where Eddie Biedenbach had just been named head coach. In making his decision, McKillop recalled his last game for East Carolina, the loss to Davidson, the way the fans celebrated the championship. In making his decision between Penn and Davidson, he visited the Davidson campus in North Mecklenburg, was stricken with its beauty and charm, as well as the mission of the college, and

the uniqueness of the village. “Davidson, here I come!” The Wildcats went 8-19 that season. Penn went to the NCAA Final Four. Oh, well. After one year on the Davidson staff, a great high school opportunity beckoned at Long Island Lutheran High School. McKillop went there as head basketball coach, director of summer programs and for two years, served as interim headmaster. He compiled a record of 182-51. In his high school coaching career, he won five New York State championships, coached five high school AllAmericas, one of whom was Matt Doherty, former head coach at North Carolina and now in the same position at SMU. “Bob McKillop is easily one of the nation’s best coaches,” Doherty says. “What he has done at Davidson is truly remarkable. He recruits topflight students for one of the country’s top liberal arts colleges and competes in the demanding Southern Conference along with a ridiculously tough non-conference schedule.”

McKillop accepted the challenge of rebuilding Davidson basketball and became its head coach in 1989. He proceeded cautiously at first, as he learned to mesh what fit at Davidson with his personal philosophy. “Davidson is a special place, a unique place,” McKillop says. “In recruiting and staffing, we must have the right fit otherwise it could lead to frustration and immediate failure.” Davidson has a special blend of academics, social life and athletics. Not all good players with excellent grades are a fit. McKillop’s ability to put the proper people in place has been a leading reason that he has succeeded at such a high level at Davidson. Said Martin Ides, one of McKillop’s former players who went on to play professional basketball in Europe: “There are many things that set Coach McKillop apart from all the coaches I’ve had…However, what I appreciate most is what Coach calls our Davidson ‘basketball family.’ I stay in contact with many of our guys…I would love to be on an all-Davidson team again with Coach McKillop leading the way.” McKillop’s players talk about his leadership, teaching, and confidence. “Coach McKillop is the best at preparing his team,” says Logan Kosmalski, who was an All-Southern Conference player in 2005 and now plays professionally in Sweden. “His knowledge and attention to detail made us feel like we could win against any opponent.” McKillop loves history, politics, Italian cuisine, nice clothes, good books and movies that teach him life’s lessons. A frequent lecturer, he has as many basketball friends in Europe as he does in the United States. He once dreamed of being a U.S. Senator from New York, a notion that has since subsided. His reading preferences lean toward history, politics, leadership, coaching stories, and not much fiction. Four movies rank as his favorites: “Life is Beautiful,” “Michael Collins,” “Godfather” and “Schindler’s List.” “Those movies teach great lessons about life, family, struggles and leadership,” he says. In

his view, movies should do more than entertain; they should also teach. McKillop cherishes each moment and treats it as gold. Whether it’s on the bus with his team to a road game or waiting for a flight in an airport terminal, he always has work at hand. When a friend was late to a breakfast meeting, McKillop waved it off, saying as he surveyed papers on the table in front of him, “No problem. I had plenty of work to do.” He carries his office with him. He grew up on Long Island and had a fascination with sports for as long as he can remember. He loved Army football and the legacy of the Black Knights of the Hudson. The first college basketball game that he saw in person was at Alumni Hall, St. John’s vs. NYU. He loved going to games at Alumni Hall and Madison Square Garden and dreamed of playing for NYU, a powerhouse at the time. Although he’s been in North Carolina for 22 years, he hasn’t lost the sharp edges of his New York brogue. His phone mail message begins, “How ya doin’?” His metaphors, which he often uses, speak of “Broadway stages” and “magical carpet rides.” His coaching career at Davidson has been spectacular by any barometer: 383-248, the longest tenure of any Davidson basketball coach, more victories than any coach in school history, and his 220 Southern Conference wins – including three undefeated seasons in league play — are more than any coach in league history. He’s won 10 Southern Conference division titles, five SoCon tournament championships and taken his team to five NCAA tournaments and four postseason NITs. All this winning hasn’t come at any academic sacrifice, as all of his Davidson seniors have graduated. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski calls McKillop “a sensational coach.” Texas coach Rick Barnes says, “There are some great coaches out there who deserve recognition, and Bob is at the very top of that list.” McKillop derived his basketball philosophy from many sources: Lou Carnesecca, Al and

ASSISTANT COACH JIM FOX Beginning his 10th season as an assistant coach to Bob McKillop at Davidson, Jim Fox has participated up close in one of the most successful stretches of basketball in the school’s history. It’s been a journey that saw the 2008 Wildcats defeat three powerhouse programs en route to the NCAA Elite Eight before losing by two points to eventual national champion Kansas. Fox’s nine years on McKillop’s staff have produced an overall record of 183-72 and a dominating mark of 129-27 against rival teams from the tough Southern Conference. The Wildcats played postseason basketball in five of those years – three times in the NCAA tournament and twice in the NIT. “It’s no coincidence that our program has enjoyed consistent success since Jim Fox joined Jim Fox our staff in August Assistant Coach 2001,” Coach McKil10th Season lop says. “Each year, we’ve asked him to wear more hats and take on additional coaching responsibilities, and he hasn’t missed a beat. This versatility has prepared him well to be a head coach, and he’s certainly ready for that challenge.” Fox’s varied basketball background has helped him cultivate recruiting contacts all over the country. McKillop has given him opportunities to participate in all facets of Davidson’s program: recruiting, scheduling, scouting, game preparation and on-court teaching. “I love coming to work every morning and helping coach the young men that we bring to Davidson as student-athletes,” Fox says. “We work with excellent students who are also good basketball players who are more than willing to work hard to become great.” Fox’s rapport with the players is such that they feel comfortable talking with him not only about basketball but also issues that pop up in the lives of all college students. He’s a good listener, a characteristic aided by his valuable experience as a successful high school coach in New York State. The longest-tenured assistant coach on Davidson staff ’s, Fox, a native of Levittown, N.Y., spent five years as associate head coach at St. Dominic High School in Oyster Bay, N.Y., and one year as the school’s athletic director. As head coach of the freshman team, he directed the St. Dominic frosh to an amazing record of 55-1 and four consecutive Catholic High School championships. He also taught government, economics, criminal justice and psychology at the high school.

Fox graduated in 1995 from the State University of New York at Geneseo College, earning his degree in political science. His father retired as a chief U.S. Probation Officer and his mother retired as a school principal at a Catholic elementary school on Long Island. In his off time, Fox’s father ran a youth basketball program on Long Island, and Fox began coaching in the program when he was still in high school. It was obvious then that coaching was in his blood. However, he also held a keen interest in working in federal law enforcement. He interned with the U.S. Secret Service between his junior and senior years in college and seriously considered joining the Service as a career. But seeing how much enjoyment and fulfillment his father received from working with young men in basketball, it influenced him to give coaching a try, which he did with tremendous success at St. Dominic. It was a good decision. Players that love the game so much that they find it hard to leave the gym are commonly referred to in basketball vernacular as “gym rats.” If they had a similar term to describe coaches, Fox would fit it. His love and respect of the game is deeply held. In addition to coaching at St. Dominic, Fox was also head coach and director of the Long Island Lightning AAU Basketball Club, where one of his players was Matt McKillop, Coach McKillop’s son and a three-year starter at Davidson who is also an assistant coach in his father’s program. Fox coached more than 20 players who went on to play college basketball. Fox has had a long acquaintance with Coach McKillop, first meeting him when McKillop was a highly-successful coach at Long Island Lutheran High School. When McKillop offered Fox a job at Davidson, Fox quickly accepted. “I knew Coach McKillop as a person and a coach,” Fox says, “and I knew working for him and learning from him would be great for my career. Coach lets his assistants get involved in all areas of coaching. The work ethic in the Davidson program runs from the coaches to the players. Everyone is working towards a common goal: to get to the NCAA tournament and be successful in it.” Fox is single and lives in Davidson. His brother, Jeff, is a lawyer, and his sister, Jen, is a nurse. Coach Fox loves golf, tennis, politics and rooting for his beloved New York Yankees. But mostly he’s a college basketball coach who has played a prominent role in Davidson’s success in the sport, including multiple conference championships and dramatic victories in the NCAA tournament while continuing to help recruit top students and excellent players so the Wildcats can maintain this success well into the future.

ASSISTANT COACH LANDRY KOSMALSKI There’s nothing much about college basketball that Landry Kosmalski, the newest member of Davidson’s coaching staff, doesn’t enjoy. That includes recruiting, which bedevils some coaches. Even though it’s not an exact science at any college, recruiting is more complex at Davidson given the college’s rigorous academic standards. “The pool of prospects is smaller for us because of Davidson’s academic requirements,” Kosmalski says, “but I still enjoy it. I like meeting coaches and talking with them as well as evaluating players.” Nothing that Kosmalski encounters at Davidson should surprise him. He went through the recruiting experience himself as a Texas high school player and then enjoyed four productive years at Davidson playing for coach Bob McKillop. He averaged almost 13 points Landry Kosmalski a game for his fourAssistant Coach year career and eight Fourth Season rebounds. His 877 rebounds rank third on Davidson’s all-time list, and he stands 13th in career scoring with 1,438 points. McKillop says Kosmalski’s loyalty, passion for the game and talent for coaching make him a perfect fit for the Wildcats’ staff. He fills an opening which came about in 2009, when former associate head coach Matt Matheny was named head coach at Elon University. Kosmalski has stepped seamlessly into his coaching duties. He not only played for McKillop but coached under him at Davidson as an assistant from 2004-06. He is familiar with Davidson’s system, ranging from its motion offense to its carefully designed team defense to McKillop’s insistence on taking care of all details. “I know what the players are going through since I played in the system,” Kosmalski said. “It provides much freedom for the players as long as they get it from within the system. We recruit good students here who are also good players, and it’s fun to coach them.” Kosmalski brings vast experience to his new job. In addition to his playing and coaching experiences at Davidson, he played professional basketball in Europe for four years and was an assistant coach for a professional team in Sweden for one season, during which time he also served as head coach of the franchise’s developmental team. “I played for five different coaches in four years in Europe,” Kosmalski said. “They all went about their jobs in different ways, and I learned from each of them.” Kosmalski found new learning streams when he

took the dual position of head basketball coach and Dean of Students at The Webb School in Knoxville, Tenn. “Serving in the position of a head coach was a great experience for me,” Kosmalski said. “I wanted the experience of being a head coach and knew I probably wouldn’t get that opportunity in college for a long time. At The Webb School, I handled all of the details that fall on the shoulders of a head coach, such as planning practice and taking care of travel plans. It was invaluable experience.” So was being Dean of Students. It wasn’t totally unlike coaching but was certainly different in many ways. Kosmalski found himself handling disciplinary cases. It emphasized the important of maintaining poise and not making rash decisions. “I learned to gather all of the facts and not to judge until all the facts were in,” he said. Kosmalski comes from a basketball family. His father, Len, played for the University of Tennessee from 1970-74 and his younger brother, Logan, played two years for Davidson after transferring from Baylor. Logan now plays professionally in Germany. Kosmalski thought for some time that he wanted to be a coach, but it became a certainty in his mind during his last year of playing professionally in France. Why coaching? “I like the commitment and enthusiasm that you find in college basketball,” he says. “Players that reach this level have worked hard for many years to get here. They’ve shown dedication and commitment, and they all want to be good players.” Davidson has an eclectic group of big men this year, and Kosmalski will get a chance to help teach them within the framework of McKillop’s system. “Our players are good people, and they all want to learn,” Kosmalski said. “Coach Kosmalski played as a big guy in this program,” said Steve Rossiter, a four-year lettermen and 2010 Davidson graduate. “He was on the staff here my first and last years at Davidson, and his experiences enable him to identify with what we’re going through as players and students.” Kosmalski is married to Lauren Santi, a former cheerleader at the University of Alabama who also worked for two years in Davidson’s office of sports information. They live in Davidson, a short distance from the campus. Kosmalski’s commitment to coaching is so strong that he says he doubts that he could hold a regular job in another field. “We keep score in this profession,” he said. “When we go home after a game, there’s no doubting who won and who lost. I think I’d miss the competition too much to work in another field.”

ASSISTANT COACH MATT MCKILLOP Matt McKillop is back chasing a dream that he set aside for a year or two. McKillop, now an assistant coach on his father’s staff at Davidson, always thought that he wanted to be a coach. Things changed somewhat, though, after McKillop and six other senior players graduated from Davidson in 2006. They won the Southern Conference championship and played Ohio State a close game in the first round of the NCAA tournament before losing. The senior class was extremely close so it was an emotional time Matt McKillop when the season ended. Those seven guys would never again play together on the same team. Had to come to grips with it, but it took time. Unsure about a possible coaching career, he accepted an offer to Matt McKillop play professional basAssistant Coach ketball in the Czech ird Season Republic, an experience that wasn’t all that it might have been. Furthermore, he injured his knee and within three months returned home to have surgery. McKillop took a job with the NBA Charlotte Bobcats in marketing. It kept him close to basketball only in the sense that he worked for a basketball franchise. Marketing and coaching are light years different. He missed the direct contact with the sport and realized that he really did want to coach. He waited until Davidson’s season was over before talking to his father about it. He sent out job resumes to coaches, made phone calls, built contacts. Then he caught a break, a good one. Jason Zimmerman, a former Davidson player and assistant coach to Bob McKillop, was named head coach at Emory, a Division III program. Matt McKillop called to inquire about his chances of becoming his assistant coach. Things worked out and Zimmerman hired him. He and McKillop traveled far and wide talking to high school players with good academic standing to consider Emory. Division III offers no athletic scholarships, just financial aid based on need. It makes recruiting extremely dicey, especially at a

prestigious academic school such as Emory. You want a challenging coaching job? Try locating players that are talented enough to win at a competitive Division III program, who also are good students, and then tell them there are no athletic scholarships available. You’ll find out in a hurry if you really want to be a coach. Coach Zimmerman is special, though, and certainly has the talent, skills and determination to get the job done. It will take him some time, but he’ll do it. When Davidson made its remarkable run to the Elite Eight in 2008, Matt McKillop was present for the Southern Conference tournament, as well as the NCAA tournament games in Raleigh and Detroit. Davidson basketball was still an important part of his life, understandably so. When Tim Sweeney resigned from the Davidson staff to take another coaching job, McKillop went through the process of applying for the position and was hired. Working for his father has taken very little adjustment, he believes. After all, he grew up with him in the same house talking basketball and reviewing strategy. He played for him for four years. He knows the system well and what his father expects. He’s quite familiar with assistant coaches Jim Fox and Landry Kosmalski, as well as one of his former teammates, Terrell Ivory, now Davidson’s director of basketball operations. The get acquainted period for Matt lasted all of about 15 minutes. He is involved in all aspects of the program: recruiting, editing tapes for scouting and teaching purposes, and in practice, he will scrimmage a lot with the scout squad when they go against players who get the bulk of Davidson’s playing time. Matt will push the regulars and challenge them to become better. “I love all aspects of coaching,” he says. “I didn’t know exactly how busy my father was and how many demands are made on his time. It’s amazing to me that he’s been able to handle that kind of schedule for so long.” Matt McKillop has seen the other side – life without basketball. Now that he’s back, he’s not worried about working long hours or the pressures that coaches face. “I’m doing something that I truly love at the place that I want to do it.” Who could ask for more than that?

DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS TERRELL IVORY Terrell Ivory experienced a little bit of everything during his four-year playing career at Davidson. Overall it was a great time, although he’s much fonder of some memories than others. His 2002 team won the Southern Conference championship and was sent to Albuquerque, N.M., to play to play fourth-seeded Ohio State in the NCAA tournament. Although a heavy underdog, the Wildcats outplayed Ohio State for 39 minutes before losing the game, 69-64. The next season didn’t end quite so well for Ivory and his teammates, but he learned that in college basketball, anything is possible. The Wildcats went 11-5 in the Southern Conference in 2003, and on March 1, in Belk Arena, closed out the regular season with an Terrell “TI” Ivory Director of Operations 84-49 shellacking of VMI. Five days later ird Season the two teams met again in Charleston in the SoCon tournament, and the Keydets won, 66-60. Therein rests the beauty of college basketball: exciting, unpredictable, never count an underdog out. Those elements and a deep love for the game have led Ivory into a career of coaching, with this being his third year on Davidson’s staff as director of basketball operations. “I am thrilled to be back,” Ivory says. “The coaches here knew that if a job opening occurred on staff and I had a chance to get it, I would probably take it.” The opening came after the 2007-08 season when Jeremy Henney returned to his native state of Indiana as head coach of a high school basketball program. Ivory, known to former teammates and friends as “T.I.,” didn’t know exactly what he wanted to do when he graduated from Davidson in the spring of 2004. He was sure, however, that basketball was still in his blood. He wasn’t ready to give it up. He went to Manchester, England, to play basketball for a year. “There’s nothing better than getting paid to play basketball,” Ivory says of the experience. Professional basketball teams in Europe don’t usually play but one game a week, so T.I. had plenty of time on his hands. He took the oppor-

tunity to spend two days a week coaching basketball to high school students. He enjoyed the coaching experience so much that after one year in England, he returned to the United States to accept a job at Blair Academy, a New Jersey prep school. He interned there his first year, and the following two years, he was an assistant basketball coach and Algebra II teacher, who lived in a campus dormitory. Joe Mantegna was head coach at Blair, and Ivory learned a good bit about running a program while working as his assistant coach. “He runs his program like a college program,” Ivory says. “I met a lot of college coaches who came to our campus looking at some of our players. Coach Mantegna worked hard to help his players get into good academic schools that played either Division I or Division III basketball.” Ivory must have learned his lessons well because at the end of the 2007-08 season, he was offered the head basketball coaching job at a prep school in New England. He declined in anticipation that a job opening might occur on the Davidson staff for which he could apply. When Henney left for Indiana, Ivory found himself on his way back to Davidson. Welcome home. He grew up in Huntersville, played high school ball at North Mecklenburg High School, spent four years playing with the Wildcats where he was popular with his teammates, coaches and the fans that follow Davidson basketball. “It’s an unbelievably great feeling to be back at Davidson and working with the coaches and players in this program,” Ivory said. “I knew the job would entail a lot of work, but I was still surprised by just how much work. But I’m not complaining, because this is a wonderful opportunity for me.” Ivory said that even though he and his Davidson teammates worked hard, he was nonetheless taken aback by just how hard the current players work and how dedicated and committed they are. “I don’t think many people understand how good the kids in this program are or how hard they work,” he said. “These players are always in the gym and are completely committed to getting better. They certainly deserved all the good things that come their way.” Is Ivory happy that he made the career decision to become a coach? “Absolutely, I am,” he replied. “I want to be a head coach in college eventually, and there’s no place better to learn than right here.”

SUPPORT STAFF administrative assistant A familiar face, Susan Mercer returned to the men’s basketball program in 2005. She spent 11 years as the staff assistant from 1989-2000, and it is as if she never left her post. Among her duties are managing various athlete and alumni databases, Susan Mercer organizing files and invoices, answering the phones and making hotel and meal arrangements for the team and coaches. “Susan ties it all together,” said Coach McKillop. “Her bright smile and friendly voice signals a warm welcome to all who come into contact with the Davidson basketball program.” Mercer joined the Davidson athletics department as basketball staff assistant in 1989. She previously worked for Reeves Brothers in Cornelius, and for two years as a sales representative for First Union National Bank in Davidson.

DAVIDSON RADIO NETWORK Veteran broadcast journalist John Kilgo will be the radio play-by-play voice for Davidson for the 11th straight season. Although Kilgo graduated from the University of North Carolina in 1957, his roots to Davidson College go back to July 1966, when former college president Grier Martin convinced him to leave a job as columnist for The Charlotte News to become the first full-time sports information director for the Wildcats. It was an exciting time to be around Davidson’s athletic department as Lefty Driesell built a national powerhouse in basketball and Homer Smith took the school’s football team to the Tangerine Bowl to play Vanderbilt. After working for Davidson, Kilgo returned to Charlotte to become news and sports director for Big WAYS Radio, the first true Top-40 radio station in the Carolinas and the top-rated station in Charlotte. In his 18 years there and in addition to his radio responsibilities, Kilgo started a chain of eight weekly newspapers that served Charlotte and surrounding areas, including North Mecklenburg. While at Big WAYS, Kilgo was the play-byplay man for UNC Charlotte’s basketball games for seven seasons, including the school’s run to the NIT finals in 1976 and the Final Four in 1977. Kilgo moved across Charlotte to rival broadcaster Jefferson-Pilot in 1984, where he eventually became general manager of WBT Radio as well as general manager of J-P Sports Enterprises. One of his roles at J-P was to produce the weekly television show for former UNC basketball coach Dean Smith and to conduct Smith’s weekly call-in radio show that was heard on more than 50 stations. Kilgo co-authored Smith’s memoirs, “A Coach’s Life,” which was published by Random House and became a national bestseller. He and Smith later did a second book, “The Carolina Way,” which was published by Penguin Press. Kilgo lives in Davidson and continues his writing from his home office. His expertise has been invaluable in the production of recent Davidson media guides, including the 2010-11 version. He has written and edited almost all of the copy you are enjoying. Joining Kilgo for his third season will be Ken Hall, a former manager for the men’s basketball team. Hall began his broadcasting career with the Davidson men’s basketball team prior to the 2008-09 season and also has provided color analysis for Davidson football games in 2009 and 2010.

DAVIDSON BASKETBALL HISTORY DRIESELL, MCKILLOP ERAS HIGHLIGHT HISTORY OF DAVIDSON BASKETBALL Each man who ever wore the uniform of Davidson basketball, and each coach who ever sat on the bench to direct the Wildcats, deserves recognition and honor. That stipulation is made here at the top, at the very beginning. Norman Shepard, for instance, coached Davidson for 12 seasons, from 1938 to 1949, and produced teams that won 19 games in two seasons, 18 games in two seasons and 17 games once. Tom Scott coached the Wildcats for five seasons, and while his record was not spectacular, he was considered one of the most influential athletic directors in America, and it was he who hired Lefty Driesell, an obscure high school coach, to succeed him as Davidson's head coach. Talk about good executive decisions! Terry Holland, Driesell’s first Davidson recruit, coached the Wildcats for five seasons, had a record of 92-43 and won one Southern Conference championship. Many other former coaches made major contributions in their own ways. Countless players made headlines for their excellent play and brought glory to the red and

black. Space limitations, of course, prevent us from detailing all the achievements of so many. Any objective evaluation of men’s basketball at Davidson would likely come to the conclusion that two men and two coaching eras stand out as the crowning achievements of Davidson basketball. Charles G. (Lefty) Driesell, Davidson's coach for nine glorious seasons, is one. Bob McKillop, in his 21st season as head coach of the Wildcats, is the other. Driesell took over the Davidson program from Dr. Scott in 1960-61. Never one to tread lightly entering a room, Driesell’s Wildcats shocked powerful Wake Forest 65-59 in the first game he ever coached at Davidson. Driesell didn’t come to Davidson to win every now and then or to pull an upset occasionally. His mission - and it was a mission was to have the best program in the country. To accomplish that, he knew he’d have to hit the road and recruit players who could compete at the highest level of college basketball while meeting the rigorous academic standards of Davidson.

Dick Snyder (left), Fred Hetzel (right) along with Terry Holland, became the foundation on which Lefty Driesell built his great teams of the 1960s.

That would have been enough to discourage most people, but Driesell had many doors slammed in his face in his days as a door-todoor encyclopedia salesman. There was always another door to knock on, another presentation to make, and the answer might be yes this time. Play the percentages, Lefty thought then. Knock on enough doors and somebody is going to buy a set of books. It’s the same philosophy he followed later in recruiting. There was another roadblock, a rather serious one. Davidson's basketball recruiting budget for the entire year was a whopping $500. That didn’t deter Driesell either. Made him a little bit angry but didn’t stall him. Here’s one way he overcame it. The athletic department had a green Chevrolet station wagon. Driesell packed his personal belongings, drove it to an airport in Ohio, parked in the terminal lot and slept in the vehicle overnight. The next morning he went to the airport restroom and shaved, changed clothes and met the parents of high school star Don Davidson at one of the terminal gates. They didn’t know until much later that he didn’t fly in. Driesell knew that coaches from North Carolina and Duke wouldn’t have to drive that far on a recruiting trip, and he wasn't going to give them an inch. Driesell proved to be one of the best recruiters ever. He brought the likes of Fred Hetzel, Dick Snyder, Mike Maloy, Jerry Kroll, Doug Cook, Barry Teague, Rodney Knowles, Don Davidson and countless others to Davidson. Most Davidson basketball historians would likely say that the best player in Davidson history is Hetzel, Snyder or Maloy, take your pick. Once he assembled the talent, Driesell coached them to play tough man defense, rebound and take good shots. He won 176 games at Davidson and lost only 65. His teams won three Southern Conference tournament championships, played in three NCAA tournaments and missed on at least two more they should have made. For instance, in 1963-64, the 22-4 Wildcats lost in the SoCon tournament in Charlotte to VMI, 82-81. The teams had played twice in the regular season, with Davidson winning by 12 and 38 points. There was no comparison between the two teams, but that’s tournament

Lefty Driesell’s determination and creativity in recruiting helped him sign high school stars like Don Davidson.

basketball. The best team loses sometimes. Fans enjoy watching it for the same reason they pull over to the side of the road to get a better view of a train wreck. Davidson’s 24-2 team of 1964-65, which Driesell said was one of his best, had won 23 games in a row when they were beaten in overtime by West Virginia in the SoCon tournament. Davidson didn’t get a chance to play in the national tournament because of that loss. “That team would have been a serious contender for the national championship,” Lefty says, still smarting from the loss that ended his season. Driesell’s last two Davidson teams got within a breath of making the Final Four. The 1967-68 team was 24-5, defeated St. John’s and Columbia in the NCAA tournament before losing to North Carolina. In Driesell’s last season at Davidson, the Wildcats were 27-3, ranked third in the nation in the last national poll and beat Villanova and St. John’s in the NCAA tournament. Davidson was one win away from the Final Four, but a two-point loss to nemesis North Carolina ended its season. The Driesell era saw the Wildcats playing before capacity crowds of 11,666 fans at the old Charlotte Coliseum. The excitement of having such a great basketball program flowed across the campus like rampaging rapids, all the time enhancing the spirits and morale of students,

alumni and friends of the college. Driesell’s Wildcats were featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated and other national publications, and the widespread publicity dramatically increased the number of student applications to Davidson. Driesell’s goal was to play the best and beat them. He broke a long Ohio State home winning streak by routing the Buckeyes, 95-73. It was televised back to the Charlotte area and helped create even more excitement about Lefty and his team. The 1965 team beat Wake Forest, Ohio State, Virginia, Alabama and NYU. The Driesell Era is known as “The Glory Years.” Driesell and his players made a mark that will stand out as long as the sport is played at Davidson. It’s no exaggeration to say that Lefty's miracle at Davidson is one of the greatest achievements in college basketball history. Times change, of course. Rules are different, the environment changes. Bob McKillop faces obstacles today that weren't there 35 years ago. Recruiting, for example, has changed completely. While it used to be possible by hard work to whisk away star players that many schools didn't know about, there’s no way to do it now. There are more recruiting services than there are fleas on a hound dog. Young players are ranked and written about from the

time they enter junior high school. There are very few recruiting secrets out there. In fact, recruiting is a sport unto itself. There is no shortage whatsoever of recruiting nuts. They are in ample supply. McKillop’s tenure at Davidson, still ongoing, has produced a record of 383 wins, 248 losses. He’s won more games than any basketball coach in Davidson history. His teams have won five SoCon tournament championships, dominated league play in the regular season and participated in five NCAA tournaments, advancing to the Elite Eight in 2008. McKillop has been Southern Conference coach of the year seven times, and his 223 wins against SoCon teams are the most by any coach ever. The consistency that he brings to his program is extraordinary. His brilliance in winning in conference play has made the Wildcats the one team in the league that wears a bull’s-eye on its chest. If they would be honest about it, nearly every school in the SoCon would list Davidson as its number one rival. To win in this environment, where every road game is a festival, through thick and thin, in good times and bad, is what makes McKillop’s program stand out. He and his staff work extremely hard in recruiting. They not only look for players with good basketball talent and excellent grades, but also for young men who will fit in well with the 81

DAVIDSON BASKETBALL HISTORY players already in the Davidson program. If a player had scintillating basketball skills but showed traits of being selfish or unconcerned about others, he wouldn’t end up at Davidson. McKillop doesn’t recruit problems. Talk to the young men in Davidson's program now, ask them why they came to Davidson, and to the man, they will mention McKillop’s honesty in recruiting as one of their major reasons for coming. Like Driesell, McKillop will not duck a fight. This season's non-conference schedule is a prime example: West Virginia, Vanderbilt, Rhode Island, Charlotte and St. John’s. All strong programs with a tremendous history of success. It’s the kind of challenge McKillop likes for his team.

As an assistant and player under Driesell, Terry Holland became the 13th Davidson head basketball coach. He continued where Driesell left off, leading the ’Cats to their third straight SoCon title and an NCAA Tournament berth in his first season. Holland never had a losing season and was league coach of the year in 1970, ’71 and ’72. During his five seasons, the ’Cats lost only seven league games. Holland ended his career after combining for 418 wins at Davidson and Virginia. He ranks second in winning percentage at Davidson with a .681 mark and is currently the athletic director at East Carolina.

Coming from the high school coaching ranks where his teams at Newport News posted a record of 64-6, including a 57-game winning streak and a state championship, Driesell was determined to put Davidson on the national map. As it turned out, he coached three of Davidson’s five All-Americans, led the Wildcats to their highest national ranking, took the ’Cats to the Elite Eight on two consecutive occasions and won SoCon Coach of the Year an unprecedented four straight times. His .730 winning percentage has yet to be surpassed at Davidson. Driesell coached the Wildcats to six straight 20-win seasons, also a mark that has not been outdone.

Norman Shepard held coaching ranks at Davidson for 12 seasons while also assuming the position of athletic director. Shepard was active in basketball since his college days at Davidson and North Carolina, where he received his bachelor’s degree. As coach of the ‘Cats, Shepard’s win total of 170 has only been surpassed by Lefty Driesell and current coach Bob McKillop. Prior to Davidson, Shepard coached at UNC and in 1924 led an undefeated team to 25 consecutive wins and a recognized national championship. He ranks third in career wins at Davidson and fifth in winning percentage. CaReeR CoaChinG ReCoRds by yeaR

2009 NIT TEAM THE ‘SEASON AFTER’ PRODUCED 27 WINS, BERTH IN NIT Expectations for the 2008-09 Davidson basketball team ricocheted wildly in the months preceding the season. Even before the village celebrated Independence Day, townsfolk gathered on the brick sidewalks downtown to talk basketball, wondering if this would be the year that the Wildcats made it to the NCAA Final Four. No dream was considered too big, not even a national championship. The players heard all of the talk and prognostications, of course they did. Newspaper reporters converged on Davidson during the summer to tell the story of how basketball had taken over the village. Realism was lost in a flood of wistfulness. Message boards went nuts, but there’s no news in that, is there? The school upgraded its basketball arena with new scoreboards and handsome seatbacks. Fans called the ticket office in early summer making sure that their season tickets were secure. The arena sold out. This onslaught of enthusiasm, of course, was a leftover from the season before when Davidson dominated the Southern Conference and went into the NCAA tournament and beat favored teams Gonzaga, Georgetown and Wisconsin. Led by a boyish basketball assassin by the name of Stephen Curry, whose

Will Archambault compiled eight points, six rebounds and two assists against the Gamecocks.

marksmanship from deep beyond the arc, endless charisma and the unabashed joy he displayed in playing the game suddenly made Davidson America’s team. The ‘Cats made the Final Eight in 2008 and a squadron of police cars escorted the team bus from its Dearborn hotel to Ford Field, where 57,500 fans and millions more on television watched Davidson and Kansas duel to the last second. It was only when Jason Richards’ shot caromed off the left of the rim at the final buzzer that the issue was decided. Davidson lost by two points to the eventual national champions. While Davidson lost three valuable seniors from that dream team (Richards, Thomas Sander and Boris Meno), Curry was back with a supporting cast that was more than capable. Davidson had basketball fever and there was no vaccine to slow it. Some of the fan buzz was crazy. One woman, a staunch friend of the program, stopped a writer on a fall morning before the season began and forecast: “I don’t think any team will come within 20 points of us.” Respite for the players came when the season finally started. Their sanctuary was the court. They had been hugged and praised and applauded until they were slap worn out. They kept it in perspective, but who among us doesn’t like to believe the good things said about us? It’s hard to keep an even keel under those circumstances.

Curry and the Wildcats took the challenge and slapped it in the face. They won 20 of their first 23 games, roared to 13 straight wins in the conference. The three losses were at Oklahoma, at Duke and to Purdue in Indianapolis. The first tear in Superman’s cape came on Feb. 7, 2009, in Davidson. College of Charleston, behind Antwaine Wiggins’ brilliant defense against Curry, upset the Wildcats 77-75. It was Davidson’s first conference loss in 43 games. Curry came open just beyond the 3-point arc on the right wing with two seconds remaining, poised to take the game-winning shot, but Wiggins somehow recovered and as Curry launched the ball, Wiggins reached from behind and blocked it cleanly. Davidson finished the regular season 18-2 in the conference, 25-6 overall, and defeated Appalachian State in the first round of the SoCon tournament in Chattanooga behind 43 points from Curry, which tied for the third-most in tourney history. It set up the rubber match in the semifinals between the Wildcats and College of Charleston. In a choppy offensive game, Davidson built a 12point lead in the first half and led by 29-20 at halftime. Its defense held C of C to 21 percent shooting from the field in the first 20 minutes. Second half was a different story. College of Charleston took a one-point lead with

2009 NIT TEAM 14:49 to play and never lost it. The Wildcats shot a cold 28.6 percent in the second half and lost, 59-52. Davidson hoped its 26-7 record might be good enough to earn a spot in the NCAA tournament field, but it wasn’t to be. The Wildcats accepted a bid to the NIT and a first-round date at South Carolina of the Southeastern Conference. Davidson took the fight to the favored Gamecocks from the get-go and built an 11-point lead midway through the first half only to see the margin reduced to two points at halftime. The second half showed much more offense on the part of both teams. Davidson led the entire half except for 30 seconds when South Carolina took a one-point cushion. The Wildcats held South Carolina star guard Devan Downey to 5-of-14 from the field while Curry scorched the nets for 32, as Davidson advanced, 70-63. Impressive road win against a good team that tied for first in the East Division of the Southeastern Conference.

The reward was a trip to Moraga, Calif., and a game with Saint Mary’s of California in tiny McKeon Pavilion. The headline of the game, which ESPN snatched up to show nationally, was a shootout between Davidson’s Curry and Saint Mary’s star guard Patrick Mills. Attendance for the game was announced at 3,500. Every inch of standing room in the old building was taken. When asked if the atmosphere was similar to when conference rival Gonzaga comes to town, the locals replied it was more raucous for the Wildcats. The crowd was uproarious the entire evening, and the shootout came as advertised with Saint Mary’s leading 36-33 at halftime. Davidson’s biggest lead of the half was five points, while Saint Mary’s built its biggest lead at 21-14. Saint Mary’s broke a tie with 17:52 to play in the second half and never lost the lead the rest of the way, winning 80-68. Mills scored 23 points and had 10 assists while Curry, in what turned out to be his last Davidson game, scored 26 points, and had nine rebounds and five assists. Both Mills and Curry would enter the draft with Curry going seventh overall to Golden State and Mills taken in the second round by Portland. It was also the last game for Davidson seniors Andrew Lovedale, Max Paulhus Gosselin and Can Civi. Their class won 105 games in four years, lost only 31, went to the postseason each year and will have the lifetime memory of the journey that took them to the Elite Eight. The 2009 Davidson team won 27 games, lost eight and won the regular-season SoCon title, as the college made its fifth consecutive trip to basketball’s postseason.

2008 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM WILDCATS DEFEAT THREE GIANTS EN ROUTE TO BERTH IN ELITE EIGHT Jason Richards, Davidson’s outstanding senior point guard for 2007-08, was emphatic when he talked about team goals before the start of a rugged non-conference schedule. “We want to go back to the NCAA tournament,” he said, “but going back to play just one game would be a disappointing end to my Davidson career. We’ve been to the tournament two years in a row. We’ve experienced that. Now we want to return and win some games.” Coach Bob McKillop took steps to prepare his team for that dream by scheduling outside opponents that included North Carolina, Duke, UCLA and NC State. Davidson wanted to test itself against the best, knowing that playing those teams would expose any weaknesses and give them a chance to correct them before tournament time. It’s not a strategy that’s recommended if the goal is merely to impress outsiders by the number of wins and losses. But if the goal is to get better – and that was Davidson’s mission from Day One – then the challenging schedule made sense. After cruising past Division III opponent Emory 102-56, the Wildcats went to downtown Charlotte and Bobcats Arena to take on No. 1 North Carolina. A full house showed up for the game — 19,299 — fairly equally split between those wearing Davidson red and black and Carolina blue. The atmosphere of the game was

Jason Richards tied an NCAA Tourney regional semiﬁnal record with 13 assists against Wisconsin.

e 2007-08 team won 25 straight games en route to a third straight SoCon Tournament Championship and an NCAA Tourney bid. e Wildcats won their ﬁrst NCAA Tournament game since 1969, advancing to the Elite Eight and a shot away from the Final Four.

electric: great crowd, intense competition, close game that raged back and forth. Davidson’s last lead came with 6:40 to play when Stephen Curry hit a 3-point basket to put the ‘Cats up 57-56. The Tar Heels found themselves hanging on to win 72-68. While the loss was disappointing, the Wildcats showed they could compete against the nation’s best. It was a valuable lesson that would come in handy in March. The next six games served as a roller-coaster ride for the Wildcats. Davidson traveled to Kalamazoo, Mich., and lost to Western Michigan 83-76 while allowing the home team to shoot 59.1 percent from the field. Practice the next day – on Thanksgiving morning – was intense. If the Wildcats were going to be special, performances like that one couldn’t occur. Lessons had to be learned. Davidson routed North Carolina Central, won by 11 in its conference opener at Appalachian State with Curry scoring 38, and then lost back-to-back games against Duke and Charlotte. Davidson was competitive against Duke, losing by six, but not very good in a seven-point loss to Charlotte. The Wildcats went to California on Dec. 8 to play mighty UCLA. Davidson led by 17 – 32-15 – with 7:48 left in the first half. The crowd in Anaheim was stunned. But the Bruins fought back to cut the deficit to four at halftime en route to a 75-63 win. Another scrappy effort against a powerhouse team – but also another loss.

After beating Citadel by 21, Davidson traveled to the RBC Center in Raleigh to take on NC State. Curry hit a 3-pointer with 43 seconds to play to give Davidson a 65-64 lead. NCSU’s Ben McCauley shot and missed, but his teammate Gavin Grant came down with the rebound and was fouled with three seconds to play. Grant made two free throws, and Davidson missed at the buzzer to take a one-point loss and a 4-6 record with them into the Christmas holidays. It was a keen disappointment, coming so close and yet losing to another widely known team. But playing in the RBC Center would eventually help Davidson. Stay tuned for that development. Davidson began a run of 16 consecutive Southern Conference games on Jan. 3 with a smashing 92-67 win over Georgia Southern. The Wildcats won all 16 of those games, most of them by wide margins. The exception was a 59-57 win at Elon in a game that it appeared the Wildcats would lose. Davidson rode the winning streak into the ESPN BracketBusters game at Winthrop. Davidson won that one by 13 and returned to conference play where it ended regular-season play with a home win over Appalachian State and a 20-point road win on Senior Night at Georgia Southern. The Wildcats took a 19-game winning streak into the Southern Conference tournament in Charleston where they had to prove themselves all over again to be sure of a bid to the NCAA tournament.

2008 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM They proved themselves, all right. They beat Wofford 82-49, UNC-Greensboro 8252 and knocked out Elon in the championship game 65-49. Their NCAA tournament ticket was punched for the third consecutive year. But would this trip be different? A crowd of students and friends of the college gathered in the Student Union late on a Sunday afternoon to hear the pairings for the tournament. Davidson was seeded 10th and would play 7th-seeded Gonzaga in Raleigh’s RBC Center in the first round. A roar went up in the Davidson union when the Davidson road map was announced. Davidson was a determined team heading into the tournament. They certainly caught a break by getting to play in Raleigh, but Gonzaga was the regular season West Coast Conference champions and brought a record of 25-7 to Raleigh. Playing on the road would not intimidate them. Meanwhile, the Wildcats had a 22-game winning streak and were feeling pretty good. With a partisan crowd of 19,722 pulling for them in Raleigh, Davidson saw Gonzaga lead 28-17 with 8:17 to play in the first half and by 41-36 at halftime. The Zags continued to dominate seven minutes into the second half with a 58-48 advantage. But then the game began to turn Davidson’s way. The closer the Wildcats came, the louder the crowd. A Curry 3-pointer tied the game at 62 with 9:46 to play. The two teams swapped leads until Davidson got the ball with just over a minute to play. Max Paulhus Gosselin, who played a terrific game, missed a 3-point attempt, and as the ball headed towards the right corner of the court and appeared to be going out of bounds, Andrew Lovedale raced from the free throw line to the corner, grabbed the ball inches before it went out of bounds, turned and passed to Curry who hit a 3-pointer for a 77-74 Davidson lead. The Wildcats never trailed again and won 82-76. Curry had 40 points, 30 in the second half. Lovedale captured 13 rebounds, and Richards recorded nine assists. It was Davidson’s first NCAA tournament win since 1969 and set up a showdown with the second-seed from the Midwest Regional, Georgetown. The Hoyas were big, athletic,

won the Big East regular season title, ranked No. 8 in the nation, No. 1 in the nation in field goal percentage defense and No. 5 in scoring defense. As the two teams lined up facing each other on the court as the national anthem played, Georgetown’s Patrick Ewing, 6-9, reached over and pounded the chest of 7-2 teammate Roy Hibbert and said something to him. The favored Hoyas were ready – but so was Davidson. The Wildcats had played UNC, Duke, UCLA. They weren’t intimidated by Georgetown. The Hoyas had quick athletes who could defend, and they made life miserable for Curry in the first half and led 38-27 at the break. Lefty Driesell, the former Davidson coach, appeared on the school’s radio network at half and said, “Curry’s going to have to get more shots in the second half, but this game isn’t lost. Davidson can come back and win it.” It certainly didn’t look that way early in the second half, as Georgetown roared to a 46-29 lead with 17:52 to play. Then the game turned, almost dramatically so. Down by 16, the Wildcats went on a 7-0 run. Then down by 11, the ‘Cats scored nine in a row to make it a 50-48 game with 8:45 to play. You could see it in the faces of Georgetown’s players: they had a feisty opponent that was not going to be knocked out. Paulhus Gosselin tied the game at 57 with 5:06 to play, and once again, the RBC Center crowd roared its support of the underdog Wildcats. When Curry hit a tough layup and then the ensuing foul shot with 4:35 to play to give Davidson a 60-58 lead, their first in the game since the score was 11-9. Once down by 17 in the second half, McKillop’s team suddenly led by two. Davidson never trailed again and defeated the Hoyas 74-70 to earn a spot in the Sweet 16 and a trip to Detroit to play in massive Ford Field, home of the NFL Detroit Lions. Next up: Big Ten regular-season and tournament champion Wisconsin, with 31 wins, the most in school history. The Badgers were giving up only 53.9 points a game, which led the nation in scoring defense. The Wildcats were riding a 24-game winning streak. Something would have to give. Someone would have to blink.

2008 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM Davidson belonged on this stage and knew it. Please, don’t call them Cinderella. With more than 57,000 fans in attendance at Ford Field, including Cleveland Cavaliers great LeBron James who wanted to see Curry play in person, the Wildcats and Badgers traded punches in the first half and went to the locker rooms tied at 36. Davidson owned the second half – lock, stock and barrel. Richards hit a 3-pointer with 12:13 to play to put Davidson up 5745. Curry’s layup with 9:07 left gave Davidson a 63-46 lead. This was Davidson’s game, pure and simple. The Wildcats were better than the Big Ten champions and no one who saw the game would dare dispute it. Curry continued his scoring rampage with 33 points. Lovedale had 12 points, and the poised Richards had 13 assists and no turnovers in a spectacular performance. Final score: Davidson 73 Wisconsin 56. The Wildcats won the second half by a whopping 17 points to earn a spot in the Elite Eight against the Kansas Jayhawks, the tournament champions of the tough Big 12. Kansas coach Bill Self had never taken a team to the Final Four, and a lot of fans and media people in his own state reminded him of it. Davidson was looking to go to

the Final Four for the first time in school history. So much was at stake. The game was as close as pages in a book. The biggest lead by either team in the first half was four points with seven ties. The Jayhawks sprinted off the court at halftime with a 30-28 lead, but this was anybody’s game. It had the smell of a game that was going down to the last second. Kansas took its biggest lead of the second half with 12:11 to play at 43-37. But then Bryant Barr came off Davidson’s bench and thrilled most of the crowd of 57,563 by making three 3-point field goals in two minutes to give Davidson a 49-45 lead with 9:33 to play. Kansas had talent and determination, too, and pushed to a 59-53 lead with 1:15 to play. Davidson’s Thomas Sander, who was playing with a painful injury to the thumb on his shooting hand, made a free throw, and when he missed the second Davidson rebounded and Richards passed to Curry for a 3-pointer to make it 59-57 with 55 seconds to play. Kansas ran some clock on its next possession but when Sherron Collins missed a 3-pointer, Davidson rebounded and took timeout with 17 seconds to play. Coach McKillop put the ball in the hands of Curry in the backcourt and when Curry got to the frontcourt, Kansas jumped him with a double team. With the clock winding down and no cracks open to get off a shot himself, Curry passed to Richards who took a long, contested shot that missed at the buzzer. Missed left, but just barely. Kansas won 59-57 and went on to win the national championship. The Wildcats covered themselves with glory, won the hearts of basketball fans from coast to coast, and finished the season with 29 wins and seven losses. Richards got his preseason wish. A return to the NCAA tournament and some huge victories on the game’s biggest stage. And all of those people who once had to ask where Davidson was located? After the tournament, they didn’t need to ask anymore. omas Sander notched eight points and four reThey knew the answer.

2007 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM SURPRISING ‘CATS SCARE MARYLAND The day after Davidson was picked to finish fourth in the SoCon South Division 2006-07 preseason poll, coach Bob McKillop walked among his players as they were stretching on the court before the start of practice. “Fourth in the South Division,” he exclaimed, loud enough for all of the players to hear. “How does that make you feel? You proud of that? They picked you fourth in the division.” As preseason predictions go, this one really wasn’t that unreasonable. Davidson had graduated seven seniors from the conference championship team of 2006. Not just seven ordinary seniors, either, but players that comprised most of Davidson’s scoring, rebounding, passing and ballhandling, as well as its best defenders. Davidson's leadership and experience walked down the aisle in caps and gowns the previous May to get their diplomas. Like it or not, 2006-07 was rebuilding time for the Wildcats. When you’re used to winning, as Davidson is, rebuilding is not synonymous with failure -

or defeat. Especially not with Bob McKillop. He had warned his players at the team banquet the previous April that experts would count them out the next season. “But we have something for them,” the coach told the packed room, “and that is … SURPRISE!” It turned out to be a storybook season for the Wildcats, all right. Three experienced juniors Thomas Sander, Jason Richards and Boris Meno took on the role of leadership and excelled at it. Max Paulhus Gosselin, a sophomore warrior, inspired the team with his unrelenting effort and defensive prowess. Paulhus Gosselin was first in line to accept any small job that would help his team win. And then there was a precocious freshman by the name of Stephen Curry, a 61 package of dynamite that wasn’t afraid of the devil himself. Another freshman, Will Archambault, came off to bench to play in 33 games and average eight points. When Archambault couldn't play against rival Charlotte Boris Meno posted nine points and nine rebounds against Marydue to injury, freshman land in Buﬀalo.

teammate Bryant Barr stepped into his role and scored 11 points. Also coming off the bench and creating havoc for opponents was Davidson's “Big Cat,” Andrew Lovedale. His energy, ability to beat much smaller players down the court and defensive and rebounding skills sparked the Wildcats on a consistent basis. Redshirt freshman Steve Rossiter, freshman Dan Nelms, sophomore Can Civi and seniors John Falconi and Lamar Hull made significant contributions in ways that impressed the coaching staff. The chemistry on the team was about as good as it gets. The players genuinely liked each other, hung out together, stuck together in tough times. Davidson stood at 4-3 when it opened its Southern Conference season against Elon on Dec. 1. The Wildcats sent a message that night that resonated throughout the conference: Davidson 86 Elon 61. Then the Wildcats went on a tear: 12 wins in a row, including the championship of a tournament hosted by Pac-10 member Arizona State. After Davidson won 8378 at Wofford, Terriers coach Mike Young said, “They lost seven really good players from last year, and somehow they're better now than they were then. It's amazing.” McKillop’s young team seemed to be on cruise control when Appalachian State came to Davidson on Jan. 20. Before a large, loud crowd, Appalachian State won one of the most exciting games of the season, 81-74. It was an emotional game, and the defeat was a slap in the face to the Wildcats, one that maybe they 89

It was a road game for the Wildcats, a tough deal when an NCAA tournament berth is on the line supposedly in front of a non-partisan crowd. Playing in front of 8,000 boisterous fans, about 80 percent of which supported the home Cougars, the two teams put on a special game. Davidson led by two at halftime. Back and forth went the second half before Davidson prevailed, 72-65. Curry, the tournament’s MVP, had 29 points. Meno tallied 14 and 10 rebounds. Richards had six assists, one turnover. It was a team victory. Each Jason Richards (left) and Stephen Curry (right) combined for 41 points and 10 assists in Davidson’s loss to Maryland in the NCAA Tourney ﬁrst round in Buﬀalo.

2006 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM JOHNSON LEADS IN UPSET DRIVE The players on Davidson’s 2005-06 basketball team had decided well before the first shot was taken that the only way to have a successful season would be to win the Southern Conference championship and qualify for the NCAA Tournament. The seven seniors made sure every player on the team understood the mission. Nothing less would do. It was coach Bob McKillop’s 17th Davidson team, and it’s doubtful that he ever had one that had better chemistry. Team unity was enhanced by a summer trip to Italy where the Wildcats went sightseeing and played six exhibition games, including one against one of the best teams in the world – the Italian National team.

With championship trophy in hand, McKillop would take his third Davidson team to the NCAA Tournament, and overall, this would be Davidson’s eighth team to make the Big Dance. Given a 15th seed by the NCAA Selection Committee, Davidson was sent to Dayton, Ohio, to play against second-seeded Ohio State, the regular-season Big Ten champions. With its campus in Columbus located only a short bus ride from Dayton, the game was for all intents and purposes a road game for the Wildcats. They weren’t the least bit intimidated. In talking to his players at the pre-game meal, Coach McKillop said, “We have a real chance to win this game. We are going to attack Ohio State and knock them on their heels.” Davidson did just that. The 12,945 fans in attendance, most in garnet and gray, were silenced as Davidson led by four at halftime.

Matt McKillop was one of seven seniors who led the ‘Cats to the 2006 NCAA Tournament.

Davidson stayed close for most of the second half, but the Buckeyes put together enough offense to win, 70-62. Johnson was brilliant for Davidson, as he thoroughly outplayed Ohio State star Terence Dials. In addition to the seven seniors, Davidson received outstanding performances from sophomores Thomas Sander, Boris Meno and Jason Richards. Freshmen Andrew Lovedale, Max Paulhus Gosselin and Can Civi made major contributions to the team’s success, as did junior John Falconi. Steve Rossiter received an injury redshirt, and he and Lamar Hull were superb practice players who helped Davidson prepare for upcoming opponents. Davidson ended the season with 20 wins, 11 losses, a Southern Conference championship and the invitation to the Big Dance. The Wildcats didn’t just show up for the NCAA Tournament, either. They went to Dayton to win the game - and almost did it. It was a season of great memories for all of the Wildcats, especially for the seven seniors, all of whom earned their degrees.

2005 NIT TEAM DAVIDSON GETS TWO NIT WINS The 2004-05 Wildcats had some close calls in Southern Conference regular-season play, but always found a way to win in compiling a sparkling 16-0 record, a full four games better than the second-place team in the South Division and six games better than the North Division champion. Davidson is the first conference team ever to go through the regular season at 16-0. How impressive was that unbeaten conference record? Only one Division I basketball team in the nation other than Davidson went unbeaten in its conference regular season — the University of the Pacific. “Our 16-0 record in conference play is an experience that will stay with the players forever,” coach Bob McKillop said. “It was a magic carpet ride.” Unfortunately for the Wildcats, after topping Elon 67-53 in the quarterfinals of the Southern Conference Tournament in Chattanooga, Tenn., they ran into a red-hot UNC Greensboro team in the semifinals and lost, 73-

The defeat left Davidson with a record of 218 and the bitter disappointment of not making the 65-team NCAA Tournament field.

road contests. The team’s final record was 23-9. “In order for us to respond so well in the NIT after not making the NCAA Tournament, it had to be an internal response from our team. It was a credit to our seniors, Logan Kosmalski and Conor Grace, as well as an outstanding class of junior leaders,” McKillop said. “It’s a great statement about the kind of people we have in our program.” It was also a year of superlatives for the

’Cats. Kosmalski and team-leading scorer Winters made the All-Southern Conference team, with Winters also being named the conference’s Player of the Year. Winters was named honorable mention All-America by the Associated Press and selected to the USBWA All-District III team, the only non-ACC player to make the squad. McKillop capped his 16th year as head coach of the Wildcats by taking conference Coach of the Year honors for the fifth time.

2002 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM ‘CATS LOSE SQUEAKER TO BUCKEYES Coming off a 15-17 record in 2001, and with virtually the same players back for the 2001-02 season, coach Bob McKillop felt game experience would help restore Davidson basketball to its winning ways. There was a catch: Davidson needed to stay healthy. Injuries had ravaged the ’Cats’ chances in 2001, and McKillop was looking for better luck. He knew he had experienced players in seniors Michael Bree, Emeka Erege, Martin Ides and Fern Tonella. In addition, Chris Pearson, Wayne Bernard, Peter Anderer and Michel Lusakueno were juniors, most with game experience. Unfortunately, injuries struck the team again. Erege endured a painful leg injury while Bree hurt his elbow in the Southern Conference Tournament, which kept him out of the NCAA Tournament. “This team will be remembered for fighting through many challenges, yet finding a way to succeed,” Coach McKillop said. “We had injury after injury, but the resilience of the players was inspiring. For instance, when (Bree) was hurt, Wayne, Terrell (Ivory) and Fern took over as a point guard committee and did a terrific job.” McKillop also praised the senior leadership

Martin Ides tallied 20 points and seven rebounds against the 12th-ranked Buckeyes.

on the team. “The team bonded in a way that those seniors are still extremely close to this day,” he said. The Wildcats ended the regular season tied with UNC Greensboro and East Tennessee State atop the Southern Conference North Division standings with a league mark of 11-5. Davidson headed to Charleston for the conference tournament knowing that it had to win three tough games in order to get an invitation to the NCAA Tournament. After beating The Citadel, 71-58, and Wildcat nemesis UNC Greensboro, 68-58, Davidson found a way to overcome a 28-24 halftime deficit and rally to beat Furman in the championship game, 62-57. Anderer picked up the ’Cats in the second half, hitting five three-pointers, and in one stretch, scoring 17 of Davidson’s 19 points. He dropped in two clutch free throws with eight seconds left to seal the victory. His sterling play netted him the tournament’s MVP award. The win sent Davidson to Albuquerque, N.M., for the NCAA Tournament as a 13 seed to face Ohio State. The 13,661 fans in The Pit quickly jumped on the side of the underdog Wildcats, who fought and scrapped and trailed only 33-32 at halftime. Davidson got a sensational game from Ides, who scored a career-high 20 points and grabbed seven rebounds. Davidson led the game late at 59-58, but senior Brian Brown scored Ohio State’s next

eight points to give the Buckeyes a 65-61 lead with 2:35 to play. An Anderer 3-pointer with 35 seconds on the clock shaved the deficit to one point. After two OSU free throws, Bernard broke open down the lane off the dribble, but his layup attempt tantalized the crowd by rolling off the rim. Ohio State prevailed, 69-64, yet the fans gave the Wildcats a standing ovation as they left the court. “It was a special team,” Coach McKillop said, “one that left us with many extraordinary memories.” Including one of the biggest wins in the program’s storied history, a 58-54 win over North Carolina in the Smith Center in Chapel Hill. davidson vs. no. 12 ohio state March 14, 2002, albuquerque, n.M. — The Pit DAVIDSON Booker Pearson Ides Tonella Bernard Anderer Erege Ivory White Grace Team TOTALS OHIO STATE Williams Radinovic Darby Brown Savovic Fuss-Cheatham Connolly Dials Dudley Martin Team TOTALS

1998 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM MICHIGAN ENDS DAVIDSON’S SEASON The Wildcats had high hopes for the 199798 basketball season. A strong cast of players returned, led by senior guards Mark Donnelly and Billy Armstrong, junior point guard Ali Ton, junior forwards Ben Ebong and Chadd Holmes, and sophomores Landry Kosmalski, Stephen Marshall and Davor Halbauer. Davidson finished 18-10 the previous season. Recent Davidson teams had produced 20win seasons, trips to the NIT, but the goal for 1998 was to get over the hump: win the Southern Conference Tournament and go to the NCAA Tournament. Davidson and Appalachian State finished tied for first place in the SoCon’s North Division with records of 13-2. In the quarterfinals, the Wildcats got their tournament legs in a 7468 defeat of Georgia Southern behind 20 points from Ton. The Citadel focused on shutting down Davidson’s perimeter game in the semifinals, so the ’Cats went inside and highlighted Stephen Marshall, who hit nine of 12 shots and scored 27 points. Ben Ebong came off the bench for 11 points and 10 rebounds, as Davidson won 68-59 to advance to the title game, fittingly against rival Appalachian State. It was a terrific game, back and forth the entire way. Ebong’s shot in the lane late kept

e 1997-98 Wildcats were the ﬁrst team to advance to the NCAA Tournament under Coach Bob McKillop. Davidson defeated Appalachian State in the SoCon Tournament championship.

Davidson ahead and directed the Wildcats to a 66-62 victory and the conference championship. Ebong was named tournament MVP and joined teammates Marshall and Donnelly on the all-tournament team with Ton making the second team. Appalachian State lost only three games all season to Southern Conference teams — all of them to Davidson. The Wildcats were off to Atlanta to play Michigan of the Big Ten in the first round of

the Southeast Region of the NCAAs. Riding a 12-game winning streak, Davidson kept it close for a while before the powerful Wolverines and Robert “Tractor” Traylor pulled away for an 8061 victory. “Mark Donnelly and Billy Armstrong were our senior leaders,” coach Bob McKillop said. “The team hit the wall with a demanding schedule early, and we struggled in December. But we turned the corner the first week of conference play and really got going.” It was the Davidson team that returned the Wildcats to the national spotlight in the NCAA Tournament – for the first time in 12 years. “This team accomplished a lot for our program,” McKillop said. davidson vs. no. 12 Michigan March 13, 1998, atlanta, Ga.

1996 NIT TEAM WILDCATS FALL TO SOUTH CAROLINA Fans who have followed Davidson basketball for many years probably would say that the 1995-96 team is one of the best in school history. The team had a little bit of everything: five gifted seniors, explosive scoring that saw four players average double digit scoring for the season, three outstanding shot blockers, a defensive stopper in Jeff Anderson, quality depth and an offense that produced 123 more assists than its opponents on the way to a scoring average of 84.3 points a game. On average, Davidson outscored opponents by 16 points a game. Examples: 88-56 over East Tennessee State, 106-57 over Marshall, 71-46 over Georgia Southern, 90-68 over Appalachian State.

1994 NIT TEAM ‘CATS DROP NIT OPENER TO WEST VIRGINIA Davidson’s 1993-94 basketball team wasn’t viewed in the preseason as one that would make a serious run at the Southern Conference championship or a berth in a postseason tournament. The Wildcats were coming off a 14-14 season in 1993, and coach Bob McKillop’s rebuilding job was still a work in progress. But Davidson’s players saw things differently. They wanted a taste of postseason basketball and thought they could achieve it. With seniors Janko Narat and Jason Zimmerman leading the way with their skills and leadership, Davidson defeated UNC Charlotte twice, beat Clemson and won a one-point game at NC State. Sophomore Brandon Williams gave Davidson athleticism and 14.4 points and 6.3 rebounds a game, but Narat was the team’s go-to guy. He averaged 17.7 points while shooting 51.2 percent from the field and 81.9 percent from the free throw line. A versatile player, he could score from the perimeter or back his defender inside for some deadly turnaround jumpers. Junior center George Spain used his lefthanded shooting skill to average 10.1 points while Chris Alpert, the point guard, chipped in with 8.1 points and a team-leading 130 assists. Quinn Harwood, 6-9, sophomore, averaged 7.9 points and Zimmerman, 6.8 points. The defensive stopper was Jeff Anderson, a versatile sophomore who could guard three positions on the court.

It received a bid to the NIT where it lost to West Virginia, 85-69. “Our disappointment of losing in the conference championship game and not making the NCAA Tournament was tempered somewhat because our team overachieved,” McKillop said. “We got great leadership from Zimmerman, who became an even better leader when he was removed from the starting lineup. Our lack of postseason experience, on the part of coaches and players, was very evident in our game against West Virginia. We were just so happy to be in the NIT that we didn’t play our best. But we had an excellent senior class (Narat, Zimmerman, Ron Horton, Chris Shields) and a terrific season.” There were superlatives, too.

1986 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM KENTUCKY STOPS DAVIDSON IN NCAAS The 1985-86 Wildcats of coach Bobby Hussey lost their last two games of the regular season on their way to championship dreams in the Southern Conference Tournament. Davidson lost 66-57 at Marshall and 76-70 at VMI to finish that part of its season with 17 wins and 10 losses. Maybe it was a good omen, because when Davidson traveled to Asheville, N.C., to open play in the SoCon Tournament four days later, VMI was the first-round opponent. Davidson would be ready. Davidson finished 10-6 in the Southern Conference regular season, tied with Marshall for second place behind 12-4 Chattanooga. The Wildcats had not played in an NCAA Tournament since 1970, a long dry spell for a program that had lived in the national spotlight under Lefty Driesell in the 1960s. Davidson and VMI had split two regularseason games with the ’Cats winning by seven at home and losing by six in Lexington, Va. In the rubber game, Davidson’s Derek Rucker scored 17 points, and Gerry Born had 14 points and 10 rebounds as the ’Cats took their first SoCon Tournament win since 1982, by the score of 7162.

Davidson had five players score in double figures: Tanner with 17, Born, Rucker, and Himes with 12, and Jim McConkey with 10. The championship game opponent was Chattanooga. Davidson led by 10 early in the game, but UTC rallied to take a second-half lead in a low-scoring game. The game was tied with just seconds remaining when Born hit a 22-foot shot to win it for the Wildcats, 42-40. Born was named the tournament’s most valuable player and was joined on the all-tournament team by teammates Rucker and Tanner. The 20-10 record heading into the NCAA Tournament was Davidson’s best in 16 seasons. Rucker led the ’Cats in scoring at 14 points a game, followed by Born at 11.0, Himes at 10.2, Chris Heineman at 9.0 and Tanner at 7.9. The reward for the conference championship was a trip to Charlotte to face another breed of cat — the mighty Wildcats of Kentucky. Davidson battled Kentucky close for much of the first half but fell behind by 12 at halftime. Kentucky was never threatened in the second half en route to an impressive 75-55 victory. Born and Himes led Davidson’s scoring with 13 points each while Rucker added 10. Kentucky had a massive advantage on the backboards, 39-19.

Anthony “Ace” Tanner averaged eight points a game in the 1985-86 season, helping the ‘Cats reach the NCAA Tourney.

1972 NIT TEAM DAVIDSON IN NIT FOR FIRST TIME As a young coach, Terry Holland was outspoken and optimistic about his outlook for his Davidson basketball teams. Before the start of Davidson’s 1971-72 season, Holland was quoted, “Our returning veterans, Eric Minkin, Joe Sutter and John Pecorak can give us the leadership and experience we need to go with the youthful enthusiasm of the sophomores. As coaches we feel this combination is capable of 20 wins and an NCAA berth.” Holland’s prediction came within a game of being correct. Davidson ended the season 19-9 and 8-2 in the Southern Conference regular season, which put the Wildcats atop the league standings. After beating Appalachian State, 8777, in the opening round of the Southern Conference Tournament, the Wildcats lost a heartbreaker in the semifinals to East Carolina, 81-77, thereby losing out on an NCAA trip. It was an interesting season for Holland and his Wildcats. In his third year as Davidson’s head coach, the former Wildcat star player and assistant coach welcomed back a roster of one senior, two juniors and 10 sophomores. Freshmen were ineligible for varsity play, so this represented one of the youngest teams in major college basketball. Sutter, a 6-7 junior, averaged 15.9 points and 7.6 rebounds the previous season when the Wildcats finished 15-11. Minkin averaged 10.8 points and 7.7 rebounds and Pecorak scored 7.4 points a game and pulled 6.4 rebounds. The most ballyhooed of the sophomores was John Falconi, who averaged 25.5 points for the Davidson freshman team. “We expect him to do equally well against varsity competition,” Holland said. Falconi didn’t disappoint anyone in red and black, as he led the ’Cats in scoring at 16.1 points a game. davidson vs. syracuse March 18, 1972, new york, n.y. — Madison square Garden DAVIDSON J.

Terry Holland led Davidson to its first NIT appearance in 1972 after the Wildcats suffered an 8177 setback to East Carolina in the SoCon Tournament semifinals.

Sophomore T. Jay Pecorak (John’s brother) averaged 9.6 points a game. While the team’s goal was the conference tournament championship and an automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament, Davidson was invited to the National Invitation Tournament for the first time in the school’s history. It should be understood that in this era the NIT was almost as prestigious as the NCAA Tournament. In fact, in the late 1960s, coach Al McGuire of Marquette turned down an NCAA bid to accept one to the NIT. Davidson went to New York to play in Madison Square Garden, maybe the most famous building in the world for basketball. The opponent was Syracuse, which defeated Davidson in a squeaker, 81-77. Falconi led the Davidson scorers with 21 points while Minkin hauled down 13 Eric Minkin averaged nearly 11 points and eight boards a rebounds. New Yorkers Falconi and game for Terry Holland’s second consecutive postseason Sorrentino were thrilled with the team.

1970 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM ‘CATS UNABLE TO HOLD LEAD The storybook era of Davidson basketball under coach Lefty Driesell ended in the spring of 1969 when he resigned to become basketball coach at the University of Maryland, which he vowed to turn into “the UCLA of the East.” Driesell’s first recruit at Davidson and his former assistant coach, Terry Holland, was chosen to replace him as the Wildcats head coach. It was a good year to take the job. Davidson was 27-3 the year before, and returning were stars Mike Maloy, Doug Cook and Jerry Kroll, plus precocious sophomore Bryan Adrian. Holland was excited. Before the season began, he said, “There isn’t any limit to what we can do. A national championship is a possibility.” Davidson made Holland look good when it ran the table in the Southern Conference, going 10-0 in the regular season and then romping through the conference tournament without playing in a close game. Outside the league, Davidson defeated Michigan, Georgia, Syracuse, Princeton and South Carolina, and lost by three points to Duke in overtime before a sellout crowd in the old Charlotte Coliseum.

All-America selection Mike Maloy averaged 17.4 points and 12.7 rebounds a game in the 1969-70 season.

e 1969-70 Wildcats made their third consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament under ﬁrst-year head coach Terry Holland.

Champions of the Southern Conference, the Wildcats played St. Bonaventure in a first-round NCAA tournament game. Going against a St. Bonaventure team that featured 6-11 superstar Bob Lanier, who would go on to have a great career in the NBA, Davidson led 36-34 at halftime but eventually lost, 85-72. Lanier was just too much. He had 28 points, 15 rebounds, and his shot-blocking prowess made it tough on Maloy and Cook inside, as they combined to take only 24 shots, 11 of which were made. Davidson went to the perimeter game with Adrian taking 26 shots and making 12 en route to a 28-point performance. Davidson didn’t help itself by making only 16of-26 free throws. With four offensive stars on the team, Holland wisely directed his offense to suit them. Of the 846 field goals that Davidson scored during the season, Maloy, Cook, Kroll and Adrian hit 660 of them. Adrian averaged 20.2 points a game, Maloy 17.4, Cook 15.6 and Kroll 13.4. Cook led the team in field-goal percentage at .500. Maloy averaged 12.7 rebounds and Cook 10.2 The era of Maloy, Cook and Kroll ended with a 22-5 season. Over their three varsity seasons, Davidson won 73 games, lost only 13, and played in the NCAA Tournament each season, twice advancing to the Elite Eight, where they lost to North Carolina each time. The Wildcats were prominently in the national picture during the entire Maloy-CookKroll era. It was a special time in the village.

1969 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM SCOTT’S SHOT BEATS WILDCATS Sometimes Lefty Driesell, the former Davidson coach who guided the Wildcats to the rarefied air of the nation’s Top-10 basketball teams, sits in his beachfront house in Virginia Beach, Va., looking out at the ocean and wondering which of his many Davidson basketball teams was his best. Was it the brilliant 1964-65 team of Fred Hetzel, Don Davidson, Barry Teague, Dick Snyder and other standouts that finished the season with 24 wins against only two losses? It well could have been. Sports Illustrated picked Davidson number one in the nation in the preseason. That team beat Wake Forest twice by seven points each time, hammered Ohio State by 23, beat Virginia by 12, Alabama by 17 and dominated the tough Southern Conference, going unbeaten against the league in the regular season. It included two victories over conference rival West Virginia by nine and 23 points. What galls Driesell to this day is that team, as splendid as it was, didn’t even get a chance to play in the postseason when it lost by two points to West Virginia in the conference tournament championship game, a loss that broke a 23-game winning streak. The ’Cats were ranked sixth in the nation in the final poll of the season. “That team was good enough to make a serious run at the national championship,” Driesell said. “It had everything: good shooters, excellent rebounders and scorers, good ball handlers, and we could flat out play some defense.” Or maybe it was Davidson’s 1968-69 powerhouse team, which won 27 games and lost three, and was mere seconds away from going to the NCAA Final Four. “This is the team that won more games than any team I coached at Davidson,” Driesell said, “so maybe it was the best we ever had.” Certainly, a good case could be made for it. The ’Cats finished third in the nation in the final poll. It was a team that had experience, depth, great rebounding, scorers, excellent ball handlers and defensive stoppers. In an effort to build his program and put it on a national stage, Driesell never ducked tough nonconference games. The 1968-69 team demonstrated the truth in that statement, as it defeated Vanderbilt, South Carolina, Maryland, Texas, Michigan, Wake Forest, Duke and Princeton. Again unbeaten in regular-season conference play, the Wildcats had to prove it all over again in the conference tournament, which it did by routing VMI, Richmond and East Carolina. It was a veteran and gifted team that Driesell took to the NCAA Tournament. Three juniors that came to Davidson in the same recruiting class made up the starting frontcourt: Mike Maloy, Doug Cook and Jerry Kroll. They complemented

each other perfectly. Maloy was quicker than bad news and almost impossible to guard in the post and keep off the offensive glass. He was a ferocious rebounder and shot blocker. Cook was competitive, tough, liked to get inside and bang for position, and he could score from the low block. He and Maloy formed a rebounding tandem that gave opponents fits. Kroll was more of a finesse player, a player with savvy who could score, defend and rebound, and never lost his cool. The senior backcourt was special, featuring Wayne Huckel, 6-3, at the two-guard, and Dave Moser, 6-1, at the point. Those two had played on the varsity together for three seasons and fit like a hand in a glove. Two excellent seniors — Mike O’Neill and Mike Spann — were available off the bench. Davidson opened NCAA Tournament play with a 14-point win over Villanova. Then it was off to College Park, Md., for the East Regionals. After defeating St. John’s, 79-69, old nemesis North Carolina stood between Davidson and the Final Four. Ironically, one of UNC’s stars was Charlie Scott, a superstar who had verbally committed to Davidson during his high school recruitment but changed his mind. The game that ensued was befitting of two superpowers. Close the entire way and hotly contested, Davidson had the ball with under a minute to play in a tie game and was holding for the final shot. Kroll reversed his dribble near mid-court, and when he moved in the opposite direction, he collided with North Carolina’s Gerald Tuttle, who had positioned himself to take a charge, which was the official’s call. Possession to North Carolina. In the UNC timeout huddle, coach Dean Smith told Scott, “They will be looking for you to

take the final shot, so be patient, and if you see an open teammate, get him the ball.” Scott controlled the ball and never intended to give it up. It was a final shot that he later said he wanted badly. With the scoreboard clock beating down to zero, and the score tied at 85, Scott got just inside the foul circle, jumped and fired. Nothing but net. The shot had such important meaning to so many people that some, including Driesell, believe Scott took the shot from deep on the court, from what would now be well beyond the 3-point arc. Tapes of the game, however, show that the winning shot was from about 18 feet, just inside the foul circle. Whatever the recollections of fans of both schools, everyone remembers Scott’s great game as he led all scorers with 32 points, which overshadowed the superb 13-rebound performance by Maloy. As the North Carolina bench exploded with joy on the home court of the Maryland Terps, Lefty Driesell dropped to his knees in front of Davidson’s bench, buried his head in his hands and stayed there for what seemed like an eternity. “We played great, and it was a tough loss to take,” Driesell said. It was the second year in a row that North Carolina had denied Davidson a trip to the Final Four. The 1968-69 Wildcats won more games (27) than any Davidson basketball team in history. So, was it Davidson’s best basketball team ever? “It could be,” Driesell said. “It won more games than any of my teams there. But some of my other teams were really good, too, so it’s hard for me to say.” The game with Carolina turned out to be Driesell’s last at Davidson. In the spring of 1969, he left to accept the head coaching position at the University of Maryland.

1968 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM WILDCATS STOPPED SHORT OF FINAL FOUR Davidson’s 1967-68 Wildcats were an exciting blend of youth and experience, a combination so lethal that it had coach Lefty Driesell and the team’s fans thinking of a trip to the NCAA Final Four. Rodney Knowles, 6-9, was a senior frontcourt player, who averaged 18.4 points and 12 rebounds as a junior, a season in which the rebuilding Wildcats won 15 games and lost 12. Key returning players from the 1966-67 team also included starting point guard Dave Moser (8.9 points), sharp-shooting wing Mike O’Neill (11.1 points, 5.4 rebounds), the swashbuckling Wayne Huckel, 6-3, who averaged 16.8 points as a junior and was so tough that he wore baseball sliding pads to help survive the skid marks he received from diving on the floor. Tom Youngdale (10.7 points), and Mike Spann (5.5 points) also returned, among others. Joining those talented players were sophomores Doug Cook, Mike Maloy and Jerry Kroll (freshmen weren’t eligible to play varsity basketball in this era). As usual, the Wildcats under Driesell didn’t dodge a fight. They played the likes of Michigan, Vanderbilt, Memphis State, St. Joseph’s, St. John’s, Temple, Wake Forest and Duke. It was a splendid team, defensively tough and one of relentless rebounders. Davidson, led by Maloy’s average of 11.7 rebounds a game, out-rebounded opponents on a average of nine a game, and the stifling manto-man defense that Driesell drilled into his players each afternoon resulted in opponents shooting only 39.8 percent for the season, as opposed to Davidson’s 49.4 percent. Stopping the ’Cats on offense was a complicated equation. Five players scored in double figures, led by Maloy’s 15.6 points, with Moser just out of double digits with an 8.6-point average. Driesell was a firm believer in attacking inside with high-percentage shots, which resulted in Davidson taking 134 more foul shots than its opponents. Davidson went through the Southern Conference regular season with a record of 9-1 and then won the conference tournament to qualify for the NCAA Tournament. The ’Cats beat St. John’s in the NCAA opener, 79-70. It was off to Reynolds Coliseum in Raleigh for the East Regionals, where Davidson was to meet Columbia of the Ivy League and North Carolina was to play unbeaten and third-ranked St. Bonaventure. North Carolina had a surprisingly easy time with Bob Lanier and St. Bonaventure (91-72) while Davidson eked out a 61-59 overtime win over Columbia. It set up a showdown between UNC and Davidson, a game Driesell had been clamoring for publicly. North Carolina coach Dean Smith had a policy that he would not play in-state schools

Davidson’s 1967-68 squad defeated St. John’s and Columbia to set up the ﬁrst of two showdowns with North Carolina. Mike Maloy recorded 18 points and 13 boards, but the Tar Heels came away with the win.

during the regular season other than the ones in the ACC, and it galled Driesell, who accused Smith of ducking him. Reynolds Coliseum was filled to capacity (12,600) on Saturday night, March 16, 1968. A heavyweight battle was expected by fans and the media, and one resulted. Smith’s philosophy was to play his bench and keep fresh players in the game. Tired players could remove themselves from the game and put themselves back in when they were rested. Driesell, on the other hand, believed in playing his five starters and maybe one or two reserves. In this game, North Carolina played eight players and Davidson six. Davidson’s starters of Moser, Huckel, Maloy, Kroll and Knowles were relieved by O’Neill, who scored seven points and pulled five rebounds in a superb performance. It was scintillating game from the outset. With the crowd roaring and often standing, Davidson took the early lead behind its defense and led at halftime, 34-28.

first half to Davidson’s 41.9 percent. However, North Carolina also prided itself on its defense, and while Driesell preferred straight man-to-man, with no switching, North Carolina went with a defensive smorgasbord of man-to-man, half-court traps and a point zone. North Carolina turned the tables in the second half, holding Davidson to 29.4 percent shooting from the field while the Tar Heels connected on 48.3 percent of its secondhalf shots. North Carolina won the game, 70-66, for the right to advance to the NCAA Final Four. But it was a sensational battle, one so good that an encore was needed. Moser and Maloy played all 40 minutes in the game for Davidson, with Knowles going 39 minutes. Four Wildcats scored in double figures, led by Maloy’s 18 points and 13 rebounds. Knowles cashed in 12 rebounds as Davidson dominated the backboards, 47-37. Ironically, North Carolina’s two leading scorers in the game, Rusty Clark (22 points, 17 rebounds) and Charlie Scott (18 points, six rebounds), were recruited extensively by Driesell. “People need to remember that the NCAA didn’t seed teams in those days,” Driesell said. “They kept you in your own section of the country. There were very few good teams in the West then and a bunch of good ones in the East. If the system had been in place then that’s in use now, Davidson and North Carolina both would have been No. 1 seeds. We wouldn’t have met before the Final Four. It’s a shame that we did, because both of us had great teams, in 1968 and 1969.” Davidson ended its season with a record of 24 wins, five losses. With so many talented players returning, the best was ahead, another great season that would result in yet another classic battle with the team from Chapel Hill.

1966 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM LEFTY GETS TEAM TO NCAAS Coach Lefty Driesell believed that his Davidson basketball team faced a mammoth rebuilding in 1965-66, which was true. After all, the Wildcats had lost to graduation All-America and Southern Conference Player of the Year Fred Hetzel as well as stars Don Davidson and Barry Teague from the previous year’s team that compiled a record of 24-2. Hetzel scored 2,032 points in his three varsity seasons, while Davidson was a tough defender and double-digit scorer and Teague was a talented, reliable point guard. The three had started for the Wildcats for three years and catapulted Davidson into the national basketball picture. To continue on the national stage in 1966, Driesell would have to depend on three inexperienced sophomores (freshmen were not eligible to play varsity basketball in those days). But there was some good news, too. Some very good news. Back for his senior season was Dick Snyder, one of the greatest players in Davidson basketball history. Snyder had averaged 15.9 points a game as a sophomore and 20.2 points as a junior. In addition, he was one of the best defensive players in all of college basketball. “I can’t think of a man I’d trade him for,” Driesell said before the start of the season. But if Davidson were going to succeed, Snyder couldn’t do it alone. New faces would have to step up. They included Phil Squier, 5-11, an inexperienced senior, and sophomores Rodney Knowles, 6-8, Tom Youngdale, 6-10, and Bobby Lane, 6-3. “We lacked experience, but those guys certainly achieved a lot,” Driesell said.” That they did. Davidson won seven of its first eight, losing the opener to Wake Forest by one point before dropping a five-point decision to Navy in the Charlotte Invitational Tournament. The ’Cats entered the Southern Conference Tournament with a record of 17-5, meaning they would have to win the tournament championship in order to advance to the NCAA tournament. They were up to the task, defeating conference rivals The Citadel, Richmond and West Virginia. That sent Driesell’s team to the NCAA tournament and a date with Rhode Island, which Davidson won easily, 95-65. Then it was off to the Eastern Regionals, where Syracuse defeated Davidson 94-78. A consolation game to decide third place was played in the regionals in those 104

days and Davidson lost to St. Joseph’s, 92-76, to end its season. It was a good year, maybe even an overachieving one, as Davidson finished with 21 wins and seven defeats. The Wildcats accomplished their mission of keeping Davidson basketball in the national spotlight, while giving Driesell time to load up with more talent. “Twenty-one wins is about as much as anyone could have expected from that team,” Driesell

recalls. “They accomplished a lot.” Snyder won All-America honors with an absolutely sensational season. Even with all opponents gunning for him and often double-teaming him, he averaged 26.9 points a game while shooting 56.3 percent from the field and 79.7 percent on his free throws. But offense was just part of Snyder’s game. He pulled 9.2 rebounds a game and was Davidson’s best defensive player. “He was an absolutely great defensive player,” Driesell said. “I usually put him on the other team’s top scorer, and it was normal for him to hold the guy to 10 points less than his season’s average.” A master recruiter, Driesell said that the father of one of his Davidson players, Don Davidson, had seen Snyder play a high school football game in North Canton, Ohio. “Mr. Davidson called me,” Driesell said, “and told me he saw this great quarterback play, and the kid had jumped over a tackler in the open field on his way to a touchdown.” Dick Snyder was a consensus second-team All-America Intrigued by a football athlete with selection in 1966 on Driesell’s ﬁrst postseason squad. such speed and jumping skills, Driesell

1966 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAM was off to North Canton to recruit Snyder. Ranked as one of the best high school football quarterbacks in the country, the big football schools were lined up to recruit him, including Ohio State and Notre Dame. But on the recruiting trail, Driesell took a back seat to no one, including Notre Dame football. He and Snyder had a great visit, the coach recalls, but Driesell said that Snyder told him he was going to the U.S. Naval Academy. “I gave him my telephone number and told him to call me if he changed his mind,” Driesell said. Not long afterwards, Driesell got the call he coveted. Snyder, Driesell said, was color blind and couldn’t be admitted to Annapolis. He wanted to come to Davidson and join the basketball revolution. “The day he signed with us,” Driesell said, “Notre Dame had people in his house trying to talk him into playing football for the Irish.” Getting Snyder to come to Davidson was worth all the work that Driesell put into it. He ended up as an All-American, the 1966 Southern Conference Player of the Year, and scored 1,703 points in just three seasons of varsity basketball. He went on to an extremely successful career in the NBA. He held Oscar Robertson, who many people think is the best guard in the history of basketball, to 14 points in one NBA game while scoring 14 himself. After the game, Snyder said, “Playing defense in the pros hasn’t been an especially difficult transition for me because Coach Driesell taught me how to play it at Davidson.” While Snyder was the unquestioned leader and star, the 1965-66 Wildcats also got a sterling performance from sophomore Knowles, who averaged 19.4 points and led the team with 9.9 rebounds. Fellow sophomores Youngdale and Lane both averaged 10.2 points a game, while senior Squier scored 7.6 points a game. This Davidson team shot an impressive 51.2 percent from the field while holding opponents to 40.6 percent, and averaged 82.8 points a game. Pretty impressive for a rebuilding season. It was a typical Driesell-coached team: competitive, tough and defensive-minded, with good shooters and led by a superstar. They called Snyder “super horse” at Davidson. He was that and more, one of the greatest players ever to wear the red and black. “He was special, that’s for sure,” said Driesell. For good measure, Snyder also starred in baseball for the Wildcats. “When it came to athletics,” Driesell said, “Dick could do just about anything he wanted to. That even included riding a bicycle better than anybody else.”

He led Davidson to records of 17-8, 19-9, and 18-8 (5425) in his three seasons with the Wildcats. Cheek was the first Davidson player to score 1,000 points in his career (including a freshman season at Tulane). He was an all-state and All-Southern Conference selection as a center in basketball and a third team Helms Foundation All-America selection in 1949. Cheek also played offensive and defensive end for the ’Cats in football, leading the team with 16 receptions in 1948.

SOUTHERN CONFERENCE The Southern Conference, which began its 90th season of intercollegiate competition in 2010, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984) and becoming the first conference to install the 3-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a Fred Hetzel ‘65 (left), pictured here with major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern ConferJohn Iamarino, Southern Conference ence student-athletes have been recogCommissioner, was the ﬁrst Davidson nized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA athlete to be inducted into the SoCon Academic All-America and all-district Hall of Fame in 2010. teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions. The Conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. Men’s basketball was the first sport in which the conference held a championship. The league tournament is the nation’s oldest, with the inaugural championship held at Atlanta’s City Auditorium in 1922 and was won by North Carolina. Not only was the Southern Conference Tournament the first of its kind, the league also helped change the face of college basketball. In 1980, the league began a seasonlong experiment with a 22-foot 3-point field goal with the approval of the NCAA Rules Committee. Ronnie Carr of Western Carolina made the first 3-point field goal in college basketball history in a game against Middle Tennessee State on Nov. 29, 1980. Another college basketball tradition that originated in the Southern Conference is the traditional cutting of the nets by the winning team. According to USA Today, the practice of net cutting originated in 1947 with North Carolina State head coach Everett Case. As a first-year head coach, Case led the Wolfpack to the Southern Conference Tournament title. Case celebrated by claiming the nets as a souvenir of the win to commemorate the event. Basketball coaching legend Red Auerbach gives credit to former George Washington coach Bill Reinhart, who coached in the conference for nearly 30 years, as one of the originators of the modern fastbreak. West Virginia’s 10 tournament championships are still the most in league history. The Mountaineers were led by the incomparable Jerry West from 1958-60. West, a two-time All-America selection, spurred West Virginia to the Final Four in 1959. The Mountaineers lost in the championship game that season to California, 71-70, but West earned Final Four Most Valuable Player honors. West was a three-time Southern Conference tournament MVP, a two-time league regular season MVP, and was twice named the conference’s Athlete of the Year. He went on to a spectacular career with the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1979. He was a 14-time NBA All-Star while with the Lakers. It is West’s silhouette that comprises the NBA’s globally recognized logo. Frank Selvy set the NCAA record for points in a game while at Furman. On Feb. 13, 1954, the senior scored 100 points in a game against Newberry, a record that still stands. Selvy was the Southern Conference Most Valuable Player in 1953 and 1954 and the league’s Athlete of the Year in 1954. He went on to a 10-year career in the NBA. Rod Hundley was another West Virginia star during the 1950s. “Hot Rod” made a name for himself as one of the most spectacular players to tour the league during his era. Hundley averaged 24.5 points per game in his three seasons as a Mountaineer and was an all-conference and all-tournament performer in each of those three years. He was the Southern Conference Most Valuable Player and Athlete of the Year as a senior in 1957. He was the first player selected in the 1957 NBA draft and enjoyed a six-year career in that league. East Tennessee State’s Keith “Mister” Jennings made his mark on the college basketball world in the early 1990s. Despite standing less than six feet tall, Jennings was a two-time all-conference choice and the league’s Player of the Year and Athlete of the

Year in 1991. Jennings played with the Golden State Warriors of the NBA. Besides West Virginia’s team in 1959, the Southern Conference has been represented in the Final Four on two other occasions. North Carolina advanced to the NCAA championship game in 1943 before falling 43-40 to Oklahoma State. North Carolina State finished third in the tournament in 1950. Davidson continued the record of success by advancing to the NCAA Tournament’s Elite Eight in 2008 and coach Bob McKillop’s Wildcats came within a basket of making the Final Four behind the play of sophomore guard Stephen Curry.

PRESIDENT TOM ROSS It was, Davidson’s 17th president points out, the toughest decision he’s ever made – and in a lifetime of service as an attorney, judge, teacher, chief of staff in a congressional office, foundation director and college president, he’s made a lot of tough ones. Tom Ross leaves the post as Davidson College president in early December to become president of the 17-campus University of North Carolina, a position that many leaders say is even more important to North Carolina’s future than the office of governor. While Ross will follow professional giants such as Bill Friday, Dick Spangler and Erskine Bowles to the prestigious position of overseeing the state’s highly-acclaimed university system, it didn’t make his decision to leave Davidson any easier. “Davidson changed my life and made me who I am,” Ross said. It’s a family thing, built and nurtured over a lifetime. Tom and Susan Ross’ son graduated from Davidson in 1999 and their daughter received her Davidson degree in 2001. When both were enrolled at Davidson at the same time, a friend asked Ross if it was worth the cost to have two children at Davidson at the same time. “Davidson will make them people that we will admire and be proud of,” Ross replied. “And it turned out to be the case, as they are wonderful, caring people.” Ross graduated from Davidson in 1972 and then from the University of North Carolina Law School. The vast experience he gained over a successful, interesting and varied career – plus the love he held deep in his heart

142

for his alma mater – made him a natural choice to succeed Bobby Vagt as Davidson president, a post he assumed on Aug. 1, 2007. “Every experience I’ve had with Davidson has been a positive one,” Ross says. His runs the gamut from student, to parent of Davidson students, to college trustee, and finally to college president. “The three and a half years that I’ve held this job are maybe the happiest years of my entire life,” Ross said of leading Davidson from the president’s corner office in Chambers Building. “I am passionate about what I do. The students here are remarkable, and my interaction with them has inspired me.” As an example, Ross calls the name of former Davidson basketball player Andrew Lovedale. “It so happens that Andrew was an athlete, but he is quite an amazing human being. The many conversations that I’ve had with our students have been great for me.” Ross made sure he was accessible to students, as he tried to have dinner at least once with each Davidson senior and often dropped in unannounced to eat lunch with students and listen to ways they thought Davidson life could be improved. The Davidson College president lives in a picturesque white house on campus that is a two-minute walk across brick sidewalks to Chambers Building. Ross saw it as part of his job as president to be accessible to students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of the college. Since the college and the town work closely together in planning and overall governance, Ross came to know many of the townspeople. His walks down Davidson’s Main Street took quite some time as he stopped frequently to talk to residents and hear what they had to say. Any morsel of information that Ross could capture that might lead to an improved college and community was worth his time. “This really is a community of trust and respect,” he said. “The people have been generous and wonderful to me, my wife and entire family. I’m struggling with the concept of not being here.” When Davidson trustees approached Ross about succeeding Vagt as college president, Ross told them that he would accept the job if offered, but added:

“Don’t offer it to me unless you’re positive I can do it.” He did the job with a flourish. A bleak economy engulfed virtually Ross’ entire Davidson tenure, but he and his colleagues deftly navigated the rough times and he leaves the institution in a better place. That’s no small accomplishment as many of the country’s leading colleges and universities have struggled mightily just to get through the most serious recession in modern American history. Ross faces this new chapter in his life – the one that takes him to the top post at the University — with many of the same questions he entertained as Davidson’s president. He wasn’t sure he could do the Davidson job and didn’t hesitate talking about it. “Sometimes I wonder if I have what it takes to be here and do this job properly,” he said in an interview with this publication 18 months into his presidency. “I have such a love for this place, such a passion for it. The college has had such an impact on my life that it would hurt me deeply if I ever did anything to harm it.” While some are understandably disappointed that he will not remain at Davidson, he will leave to a standing ovation. His tenure has been that good. As he prepares for his move to Chapel Hill to assume the presidency of the University of North Carolina system, he faces a laundry list of challenges that would make a lesser person blink and run the other way. Ross, in fact, asked members of the University of North Carolina Board of Governors – the board that

PRESIDENT TOM ROSS oversees the university system – why he should consider leaving a position he loves for one that faces so many problems, some of which seem virtually insurmountable. In a nutshell, the consensus was: “In a critical time in its history, the state of North Carolina needs you.” Ross answered the bell. “The challenges the University faces at this point in its history are real and significant,” Ross said. “The importance of the University to our state and its future can’t be overstated.” Ross accepts the University baton from the talented Erskine Bowles, who before he became university president was largely credited with saving the Clinton presidency by his work as White House chief of staff. Bowles hands off to Ross at a time of budget cuts, enrollment pressures, increased student tuitions and fees and a demand from society for better education opportunities to meet the demands of a complex global economy. In other words, Ross steps in as the University is being asked to do much more with significantly less. Ross will have help from a talented staff, but the main responsibility for figuring this out will rest on his shoulders. He knows it won’t be a slam dunk. “There’s no question that the University is at a critical time,” Ross said. “Our mission will be to make the University more relevant and nimble enough to produce graduates that can

Tom and Susan Ross.

be effective in today’s world.” The University presidency will be more complex and plenty different from the one he’s held at Davidson for the past three and a half years. Instead of overseeing one campus, he’s going to have 17, plus a public health system and public television. He will be asked to deal with a diverse General Assembly whose members are also under pressure to find funding not only for the University, but for all state-supported agencies. But one reason Ross was recruited for the University position was because of his ability to solve difficult problems and unite politicians of different beliefs – Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives. He has to find a way to get this diverse group to support the University’s mission and understand its importance to every corner of the state – and then stand tall in tough times for the institution that’s probably more important than any other to North Carolina’s future. “When it comes to supporting the University, it has to be non-partisan,” Ross insists. “Even if I grow to like the job,” he said, “it won’t be as much fun as this one because I won’t have the interaction with students that I’ve had at Davidson. It’s a risk for me to go to the University. I don’t know if I can do the job, but I do know it’s an important challenge for our state and I’ve been asked to tackle it.” While Davidson searches for the person that will become its 18th president, the college asked one of its great leaders to return serve as interim president. Former Davidson president John Kuykendall will serve as his alma mater’s interim president while a search for Ross’ successor is conducted. Meanwhile, Ross will have his headquarters and residence in Chapel Hill while supervising campuses located all over the large

state, from the mountains of Western Carolina University to the beaches of UNC Wilmington to the thriving business center of UNC Charlotte. One more question for Tom Ross. Why take on this enormous challenge when things were going so well at Davidson and he was having so much fun doing the job? “Davidson teaches its students to lead lives of leadership and service,” he replied. “I felt a sense of duty and responsibility to my state to take this on.” Ross had a unique basketball experience at Davidson. He was a student when former coach Lefty Driesell introduced the Wildcats to the national basketball stage for the first time in the school’s history. He was school president when coach Bob McKillop and AllAmerican Stephen Curry led Davidson back to the Elite Eight where they lost by only two points to eventual national champion Kansas. The 2008 trip to the NCAA Elite Eight brought Davidson millions of dollars worth of positive publicity, Ross said. “Some people wondered where Davidson was located before that tournament,” Ross said, “but they knew where we were by the time it was over.” As Ross packs up to leave for a new challenge, one of his favorite sayings will always remain on the tip of his tongue. “It’s a great day to be a Wildcat.”

Prior to his appointment at Davidson, Murphy, 54, spent 10 years as executive associate athletic director and chief financial officer for the Georgia Tech Athletic Association. An Atlanta native, Murphy played football and baseball during his freshman year at Davidson. His experience has been invaluable as he guides a program which is unique in its desire for excellence in both athletics and academics and has one of the smallest enrollments among NCAA Division I schools. Reflecting his support of academics, Davidson’s NCAA graduation rate of 91 percent was the highest in Division I in 2001-02, second in 2002-03 with a rate of 97 percent and continues to be above 90 percent each year. Davidson has claimed the Southern Conference Graduation Rate Award for the last nine years, sharing the honor with Wofford in 1999-2000. In addition, Davidson has won the SoCon's Barrett-Bonner Award, given to the school that places the highest percentage of its student-athletes on the league’s academic honor roll, 16 times in the award's 18-year history. “I firmly believe Davidson represents the ideal in college athletics and think the success of Davidson’s students, both in competi- Murphy (left) along with John Gerdy and Bob McKillop present tion and after graduation proves Stephen Curry the game ball after he broke Gerdy’s school career that,” said Murphy. “It’s true that scoring record.

The Davidson Athletic Foundation’s primary purpose is to raise operating, scholarship and capital funds to support student athletes and the Division I athletic programs of Davidson College. A corollary purpose is to strengthen the broader academic-athletic community of Annie Porges alumni, athletes and coaches, Director of DAF faculty and staff, parents and neighbors through the hosting of events throughout the year and through communications that engage the DAF’s external and internal constituencies and complement the DAF’s development efforts. Tax-deductible contributions to DAF are a vital source of strength for Davidson’s 21 NCAA Division I athletic teams, providing the operating budget and scholarship funding necessary to support a Division I athletics program. Volunteers are the lifeblood of Davidson fundraising efforts. Not only do Davidson alumni, friends and parents contribute financially to the well-being of the athletics program, but they contribute their time and efforts as well. Without the phone calls, contacts, and endless support of our volunteers, the DAF’s effectiveness is significantly reduced. The Davidson Athletic Anna Mitchell Foundation hosts a multitude Athletics Gift of events throughout each calOﬃcer endar year. These events focus on connecting and reconnecting alumni and friends of Davidson Athletics to the college, to student athletes, and to the campus. w The Davidson Athletic Foundation hosts team reunions. w The Davidson Athletics Hall of Fame Ceremony is hosted by the Davidson Athletic Foundation. w The Hendrix Award is given to a former football letterman who has gone on to success in his chosen profession. w The Dr. Tom Scott Memorial Golf Tournament takes place every April.

The history of the Wildcat On November 10, 1917, a small cohort of 22 football players traveled to Atlanta to represent Davidson College against Auburn, one of the most formidable teams in the South. The Plainsmen had massacred their first four opponents, outscoring teams, 141-6. According to one account, they were “big, quick and undefeated” and heavily favored in the day’s matchup. Davidson was 2-4 and started a line averaging 20 pounds less. Not surprisingly, Auburn dominated the game, outgaining the “Red and Black” 240 yards to Davidson’s 91 yards. Astoundingly, Davidson pulled together an offensive attack through the efforts of running back A.R. “Buck” Flowers and quarterback Henry Spann, delivering a “bewildering array of forward passes.” Davidson defeated one of the most powerful teams in the South that day, 21-7, with scrappiness that captured the awe and respect of Atlanta sportswriters. They wrote of the “Wildcats” from David-

son College, whose small stature and ferocious style proved overwhelming. One account notes that Morgan Blake of the Atlanta Journal remarked of the Davidson team, “No other team ever put together in these United States of the same weight as Coach Fetzer’s team could ever get the verdict over the flock of wild men from North Carolina.” The Davidsonian picked up on the nickname, and it has been used ever since, replacing former, milder references such as “Red and Black,” “Presbyterians” and “Preachers.” — revised and rewritten from an account in the Davidson College archives
