Dear Broncos and Supporters:

It’s hard to believe that another Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) Tournament is just around the corner. It seems like only yesterday that we were in Charlotte cheering for our beloved Broncos, supporting our student-athletes, and celebrating what has become known among CIAA fans as “Homecoming Part II.” I want to take a moment to thank our coaches and student-athletes for their performances this year on and off the court. A true indication of a successful athletic program and team is not determined solely by wins and losses, or by trophies and championships. Character, sportsmanship, and community service also are indicators that the team and program are at the top of their game. By serving as mentors to boys and girls and visiting

The Bronco CIAA Experience

with the elderly in nursing homes, our teams have shown that they indeed are winners.

To make certain you don’t miss out on any of the revelry and splendor that the CIAA Tournament has to offer, we have provided this guide for you. In it is information about how to obtain tickets, the host hotel for Fayetteville State University alumni and friends, and the popular annual scholarship fund-raising gathering. It has everything you will need to plan your stay in the Queen City and to make your CIAA experience one that you won’t soon forget. I think you will find it quite useful.

Safe travels and I will see you in Charlotte!

In the Bronco Spirit,

James A. Anderson Chancellor

We are extremely excited about our annual alumni gatherings at the hotel and at our other special CIAA events. We’re hyped!

We have enjoyed an exciting season thus far! Veteran leaders Tyrrel Tate and Akysia Resper have continued to display a high level of basketball; while new Broncos such as Joshua Dawson and Amber Calvin have stepped up to lead the charge this season. Our Broncos are poised for continued improvement as the tournament draws near and we need you to STAND BY THE OL’ WHITE AND BLUE in Charlotte!

Thanks to you, the CIAA Tournament is one of the highest attended tournaments in the country.

Annually on the morning of the Championship, Broncos from far and wide gather to celebrate Bronco Pride at the Chancellor’s Brunch.

Enclosed please find ticket information for this special event.

Over the last decade, both our men’s and women’s teams have had a strong showing in the tournament. Last year, our Lady Broncos fell in the title game against defending Champion Shaw University.

Proud to Be . . .

Fayetteville State University sits on the precipice of increasing its influence as a commanding force in shaping the future of our region, state, and nation. We provide students with the highest quality learning experiences that will enable them to become citizens and leaders as change agents in this new technologically advanced global society. Our core values are student success and the pursuit of excellence, shared governance, global responsibility and collaboration. We work tirelessly to advance these values as we continue to transform FSU into a vibrant 21st Century University each and every day.

Our ambitions are high for FSU and will require continued investment to be realized. To pursue these aspirations, the university is embarking on a $25 million Capital Campaign so that we can support our diverse student body, increase the competitiveness and caliber of our academic and student life programs, and continue the investment in our community. We are proud to be partners in this exciting endeavor with the greater Fayetteville and Cumberland County communities as well as the surrounding communities in the southeast United States and beyond.

The Campaign for Fayetteville State University seeks to grow the following strategic areas: • Scholarships for Deserving Students $13,000,000 • Support for Scholar Athletes $ 1,000,000 • Professional Development for Faculty and Staff $ 3,000,000 • Student Enrichment and Global Enhancement $ 3,000,000 • Military and Veteran Partnerships $ 2,000,000 • Center for Defense and Homeland Security $ 3,000,000
