Community Involvement Preparing for life after college sports is a major focus of the Johnson C. Smith University Athletics program. Student-athletes are given the opportunity to develop the foundation for a lifelong commitment to volunteerism through a variety of local organizations. In recent years, JCSU student-athletes have been actively involved in many community service activities, including Habitat for Humanity, Loaves and Fishes projects, and the Great American Cleanup.

to promote support amongst teams. The SAAC sends a representative to the CIAA-SAAC meeting each semester to discuss ideas with other schools in the conference. Officers are elected each August.

Each year, all 13 JCSU athletic programs and cheerleading participate in group and individual community service activities. The Golden Bulls have participated in projects ranging from planting trees and tutoring school children to visiting nursing homes and serving meals to the homeless. Being a student-athlete at Johnson C. Smith University is much more than just games and practices. Serving the community is an important part of each student’s life at Johnson C. Smith University. Student-athletes find that participating in community service activities is a great way to help others and gain valuable leadership skills. Student-Athlete Affairs (SAA) The NCAA Student-Athlete Affairs unit provides life skills support in the areas of academics, athletics, personal development, career development and service through the distribution of accessible resources, strategic partnerships and customized programming at little or no expense to member institutions. Student-Athlete Affairs programs, resources and events are designed to promote the wellbeing and development of student-athletes and to provide on-going education and training to athletics professionals who identify and serve student-athlete needs.

The Student-Athlete Advisory Committe (SAAC) offers student-athletes the opportunity to enhance their experience as Golden Bulls through leadership opportunities. The SAAC is an organization comprised of student-athletes from all varsity teams as JCSU. The goal of the committee is to inform all student-athletes, through their team representatives, of what is going on in the athletic department as well as campus-wide issues that directly affect the student-athlete. The SAAC is made up of at least two representatives from each team. The committee meets once a month to discuss relevant issues, plan upcoming events, organize community projects, and

Season Preview


Season Outlook - Rebuilding Excellence The Golden Bulls of Johnson C. Smith University embark on a journey to rebuild a squad that lost four seniors, including two All-conference performers and three of their top scorers. Head coach Stephen Joyner, Sr. has won two of the last three CIAA Championship and is use to replenishing talent after being at the helm as head coach for 23 seasons. “We have a lot of new additions this year and we’ve recruited young men that we hope to become outstanding studentathletes for us (JCSU),” said Joyner. “We’ve enjoyed some success over the years, but our last two teams had large groups of seniors, which means we’re starting new in a lot of aspects.” There will be a few familiar faces, including the team’s third leading scorer and top three pointer shooter, Ronald Thornhill. Thornhill is a 5-foot-10 shooting guard from Alberta, VA, who averaged 13.2 points per game and made 82 3-ptrs shooting 40 percent. “We’re really hoping Thornhill will come forth this season and showcase his leadership ability,” commented Joyner. “He’s been our scorer in the past, but we’ll need contributions on several levels this year.” Also returning in the backcourt are senior guard Ryan Carter and junior guard James Otey. Carter, a 5-foot-11 Charlotte, NC native played in 28 games last season and started in 13. He led the team in assists with 105. Carter will be transitioning over from football season; he is currently the JCSU starting quarterback. Otey saw action in 28 games last year and started in 15. He is known for being an accurate three-point shooting, despite only averaging 2.6 ppg last season. Returning in the frontcourt will be senior forward Earl Jackson, junior forward Michael Cooper, and sophomore forwards Calvin Smith and Delonta Boyd. Jackson, a 6-foot-6 native of Temple Hills, MD averaged 5.3 minute per contest in 23 games played last season. Jackson can be a strong defensive presence in the post and capitalizes on limited opportunities. Cooper, a 6-foot-8 post from New Rochelle, NY, has progressed each season at JCSU. Last season, he played in all 28 games and has worked this offseason to improve his footwork. Smith, a 6-foot-6 native of Auburn, AL, played in 25 games last season, but only averaged five minutes per contest. Boyd, a 6-foot-6 native of District Heights, MD returns to the squad after only seeing action in eight games during the first semester. Boyd scored 31 points in those games and has become more leaning since last season after dropping 15 pounds. New to the Golden Bulls are two transfers and six freshmen. Transferring in will be junior forward Terrell Barrett and sophomore guard Trevin Parks. Barrett, a 6-foot-6, 225 lbs, native of Farmville, North Carolina, is transferring into JCSU from Tallahassee Community College in Tallahassee, FL. While at TCC, Barrett received All-conference honors as a starter

for two consecutive seasons. Barrett averaged 20 points, 10 rebounds, and four assists in his senior season at Farmville Central HS. Parks, a 5-foot-9, 165 lbs, native of Hickory, North Carolina, joins the Golden Bulls after seeing limited playing time as a freshman at UNC-Charlotte. Parks was the NCBCA District 10 Player of the Year and averaged 24 points, three rebounds and five assists his senior season at Hickory. The incoming freshmen including forwards Robert Williams, Antwan Wilkerson, Terrance Hampton, Zachery O’Brien well at guard will be Richard Daniels, Jr. and Thaddeus Williams. Williams, a 6-foot-4, 190 lbs, native of Atlanta, Georgia, was listed on the Prep Zone as one of the top 50 offensive players for high school students in the state of Georgia. Williams led Sandy Creek High School in scoring, assists, and rebounds his senior season. Wilkerson, a 6-foot-6, 205 lbs, native of Greensboro, NC, averaged 18 points and nine rebounds in his senior season at Western Guilford HS. Wilkerson earned All-conference and All-area first team honors as a senior. Hampton, a 6-foot-6, 230 lbs, native of Charlotte, NC, averaged 22.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks in his senior season at Providence High. He led the team in scoring, rebounding, and blocked shots. Hampton was the fourth player to score 1,000 points at Providence (1,115 career points). O’Brien, a 6-foot-3, 190 lbs, native of Warren, NJ, set a county record by scoring 552 points in his senior season at Watchung Hills Regional HS. O’Brien was offensive player of the year, AllState, and first team All-County. He averaged 19 points and nine rebounds in his final season. Daniels, a 5-foot-10, 180 lbs, native of Winston-Salem, NC, averaged 20 points, 10 boards, and six steals in his senior campaign at Carver HS. Williams is 6-foot combo guard from nearby Salisbury, NC. Williams enrolled last season, but this will be his first season on the court. “We’re looking to develop the program into a national championship contending team, but that takes all parties being focused and on the same page,” said Joyner. “Competitiveness has shown upward mobility and institutions strategically plan to win the CIAA. Winning is no easy task, but one that can be accomplished with hard win, determination, and focus.” Johnson C. Smith will begin home action as host of the JCSU Tip-Classic on November 20th versus Washington Adventist University at 8:00 p.m. J.C. Smith begins CIAA play on December 13th when they host St. Paul’s College at 7:30 p.m. The CIAA tournament begins at Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte, N.C. on Feb. 28.

Coaching Staff


Stephen Joyner, Sr. Head Coach JCSU, 1973 • 24th Season at JCSU

Stephen Joyner, Sr. is in his 24th season as head coach of the JCSU Golden Bulls men’s basketball team. A native of Winston-Salem, NC Joyner’s success in basketball began at Atkins High School where he was the second leading scorer on the 1969 undefeated North Carolina State 4-A Championship Team. With a stellar high school career, Joyner became the star point guard for the Golden Bulls from 1969-73. After a stint as an assistant coach at Virginia Union University, he received his first head coaching position with Smith’s women’s team in 1980, building the Golden Bulls into one of the CIAA’s most competitive programs. He guided the women’s team to its first appearance in the NCAA South Atlantic Regional Tournament. To get there, Smith won its first CIAA Southern Division Championship and finished second in the conference tournament. After compiling a 92-87 record with the women’s team, Joyner took over as the head men’s coach in 1987. For over two decades, he has taken the men’s program to unprecedented levels, establishing Smith as one of the most feared teams in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association. His career record is 420-245 (as of 10/07/10). Throughout his 23-year tenure as coach, Joyner has collected numerous accomplishments during his career. Joyner is the winningest men’s basketball coach in Golden Bulls history, having recorded over 400 victories. He led the Golden Bulls to the CIAA Western Division Title in 1992, 2001, 2002, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. In 2000, his team finished fourth in the CIAA, third place finishes in 1991, 1993 and 2003, second place finishes in 1992, 1998, 2002, and 2006. Coach Joyner has captured the CIAA

Tournament Championship in 2001, 2008, and 2009. He was selected as the CIAA Coach of the Year and (1992, 1997, 2001) and NCAA Division II South Atlantic Region Coach of the Year in 2001. In the 2000-01 season, he led the team to victory in the Harbor City Classic in Baltimore, Maryland, the Legacy Classic in Charlotte, North Carolina, the CIAA Western Division Championship, the University’s first ever CIAA Tournament Championship, the University’s first ever NCAA South Atlantic Regional Championship and first appearance in the NCAA Elite Eight National Tournament held in Bakersfield, California. His Golden Bulls completed their historical season by being ranked #10 in the final NCAA poll and #2 in the Final Sheridan Broadcasting Network poll of black colleges. In all, Joyner has taken the Bulls to seven CIAA Divisional Titles and has produced 25 All-CIAA performers and five All-Americans, many who received those honors multiple times. In addition, his up-tempo style produced JCSU’s top two career scorers, Columbus “Green Light” Parker and Mark Sherrill, who now serves as Joyner’s top assistant coach at Smith. Joyner is an active member of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association Basketball Coaches Association (CIAA-BCA) and National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). Joyner is an NCAA Division II Congressmen and member of the All-American Committee. He previously served as a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) South Atlantic Regional Ranking Committee. He serves as a member of the McCrorey YMCA Board. The Bulls success on the court is matched by the success of the student-athletes in the classroom. Joyner strongly believes that students who excel in academics give him an advantage as a coach. “Watching an athlete mature is an accomplishment in its self,” said Joyner. “When athletes graduate, you know that you have developed the student spiritually, physically, and mentally.” Under Joyner, Smith consistently ranks at the top of the CIAA cumulative grade point average. At Smith, where academics are always priority, Joyner is a vindicator for education first for all players. Joyner earned a bachelor’s degree in health and physical education from Johnson C. Smith University and a master’s degree in guidance and counseling from Virginia State University. Joyner and his wife Narell live in Charlotte, North Carolina. They have two sons and a daughter: Steve Jr., who serves as the top assistant women’s basketball coach at Florida A&M University, Brian, and Janel, a graduate from The University of North Carolina. The Joyners are also the proud grandparents of a baby girl (Alicia).

Presidental Vision

Johnson C. Smith’s 13th President, Dr. Ronald L. Carter, has issued a challenge to faculty, staff, students, staff, alumni, trustees and friends. He has envisioned a path to move JCSU from good to great on the educational landscape so that we may live on our growing edge. In his vision, he has six priorities that will outline the way we move forward: • • • • • •

Academic Excellence – Shift the weight between quantity and quality in the University’s policies and procedures that currently lean toward quantity, which in effect has led to inconsistent levels of Smith’s programs, faculty and students. Operational Performance – Develop a focused University strategy that is based on a comprehensive management information system and measureable outcomes. Advising Research Mastery – Attract, hire, and maintain a differential faculty of teacher-advisers, teacher scholars, and applied researchers. Diversity – Attract a critical mass of highly motivated, high achieving students across racial, ethnic, and national boundaries. Distinctive Student Experience – Accelerate the University’s scheduled maintenance plan, especially in the classrooms and dormitories. Community Engagement – Lead sustained and actionable conversations with the City and coalitions of developers concerning the revitalization of the Urban Distinct that is Johnson C. Smith’s front door.

While at Boston University, Dr. Carter pursued graduate studies, earning both a Master of Theology degree and a Ph.D. in philosophy of religion. In the late 1980s, Dr. Carter’s interaction with relatives of Nelson Mandela compelled him to put his abilities to work in South Africa. Prior to Mandela’s release from prison in 1990 and the abolition of apartheid, Dr. Carter was named senior administrator of the Health Services Development Unit at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. The program he served was dedicated to improving the health of local communities through the development of model approaches based on primary health care principles and decentralized rural health systems. Within five years at the university, he again defied the status quo by becoming the school’s dean of students— and one of the first black administrators at the traditionally white institution. As dean of students, he created and received funding for the Wits Black Schools Partnership Programme that brought the university together with more than 4,000 high school students to enhance learning in township schools that were disadvantaged by apartheid. In addition, he helped raise $500,000 to support an initiative between the BookSmart Foundation and the university to provide five computer centers and more than four million books to children, schools, and libraries in South African townships. Dr. Carter returned to the United States in 1997 as the provost and dean of faculty at Coker College in Hartsville, S.C. His almost 11-year tenure at Coker College included key roles in the private liberal arts college’s strategic planning, academic and student development, financial management, and fund-raising. At Coker College he created a Distinguished International Visiting Scholars Program and a Distinguished Lecture Series. He also provided guidance and oversight for the college’s Center for Leadership and Community Development, which partnered the college with community-based organizations, governmental departments, and funding organizations. A conceptual

framework he worked with at Coker College for assessing and evaluating student learning outcomes in general education has been published in Assessing Student Learning in General Education. His many community involvements have included serving as ethicist for the Pee Dee Regional Center Ethics Committee, chairman of the Darlington County Disabilities and Special Needs Board, member of the Greater Timmonsville Friends United Board of Directors, chair of the Darlington County Habitat for Humanity board, first vice-president and director of education of the Palmetto State and Baptist Convention, member of the Pee Dee United Negro College Fund Advisory Board, member of the Coastal Carolina University Dalton and Linda Floyd Mentoring Program Advisory Board, and vice president of the Hartsville Rotary Club. With research and teaching interests in the areas of medical ethics, ethical theory, and philosophic-religious issues, Dr. Carter has held faculty positions at both Coker College and Boston University. While at Boston University, he was director of the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Career, Educational and Counseling Services and served as senior editor of Debate and Understanding, a scholarly journal for the study of minority Americans’ economic, political, and social development. His expertise in medical ethics and community involvement have brought him several national appointments, including moderator for the National Meeting of the Medical Institute for Sexual Health (2004-2006), chair of expert panel for the Connecting Parenting Adults and Youth Project funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2006), and chair of expert review panel of scientific measurement for an abstinence rating tool funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2007). He has appeared on numerous television and radio programs in South Africa and in the U.S., discussing educational issues and policies. Among his many honors and awards, Dr. Carter was appointed a Sloan Scholar at Morehouse College, a Danforth Fellow at Boston University, and a Merrill Scholar, Robert College, Istanbul, Turkey. He was a senior fellow at the Stedman Graham Leadership Institute of Chicago, and nominated by South Carolina Governor Jim Hodges to serve as a member of the John De La Howe School Board of Trustees. In 2006, Dr. Carter was the recipient of the 2006 South Carolina Dance Association President’s Award for promoting and supporting dance in South Carolina. He was recognized in the 2005/2006 edition of Blackbook as an outstanding citizen who is making a difference in Eastern South Carolina. Since becoming president, Dr. Carter has become very involved

in the Charlotte community. Currently, he is a board member with the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce, Chair of the Charlotte Street Car Advisory Committee, Charlotte Center City Partners, Charlotte Museum of History, and Foundation for the Carolinas. He is the father of a daughter, Tumelo Rosalind Carter, and has been the foster parent of four other children.

Director of Athletics

Stephen Joyner, Sr.

Stephen Joyner enters his sixth full season as Johnson C. Smith University’s Director of Athletics, a position he has held since April 1, 2005. Joyner previously served as the University’s assistant director of athletics. He also holds his longstanding position as JCSU Men’s Head Basketball Coach. “In my role as Director of Athletics, my primary focus has been and will continue to be the day-to-day operations and supervision of the departmental staff, while striving to promote effective communication amongst JCSU faculty, staff, studentathletes, alumni, media, and the general public,” says Joyner. JCSU has enjoyed unparalleled success under Joyner’s watch. During the 2005-06 season, JCSU won three CIAA Western Division Championships. The Golden Bulls claimed CIAA titles in men’s tennis, women’s basketball, and men’s basketball. In addition to a strong year in the CIAA, two Golden Bulls teams advanced to NCAA post-season competition (men’s and women’s basketball). Men’s and women’s basketball repeated this success during the 2007-08 season and again last season, when both teams captured the CIAA Tournament Championship (2008-09). Along with their excellence on the field, JCSU student-athletes have reached new heights in the classroom during Joyner’s tenure at the helm of the athletics program. Since his arrival, nearly 200 student-athletes have received their undergraduate degrees, half have graduated with honors, and several have gone on to pursue graduate degrees. The Class of 2010 Valedictorian and Salutatorian were studentathletes from the men’s tennis team and women’s track and field, respectively. The Salutatorian has been student-athlete three times from the previous four graduating classes. During the 2008-09 season, Joyner earned his 400th career coaching victory, his third CIAA Tournament crown (2001, 2008, 2009), and he was named Athletic Director of the Year by the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Joyner recently completed his 22nd season as head coach of the JCSU Golden Bulls Basketball Team. His career record is 420-245. A native of Winston-Salem, NC, Joyner was the standout point guard for the Golden Bulls from 1969-73. For more than two decades, he has taken the men’s program to unprecedented levels, establishing J.C. Smith as one of the most competitive teams in the CIAA and NCAA DII basketball. Joyner earned a bachelor’s degree in Health and Physical Education from Johnson C. Smith University and a master’s degree in Guidance and Counseling from Virginia State University. Joyner and his wife, Narell, live in Charlotte, North Carolina. They have two sons and a daughter: Steve Jr., who serves as the Head Women’ Basketball Coach at Winston-Salem State University, Brian, and Janel, a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

CIAA Basketball History in the Making The Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association is the oldest African-American athletic conference in the United States. Founded in 1912 on the campus of Hampton Institute (now Hampton University), the CIAA embodies a history rich in tradition which epitomizes the fortitude of its 10 colleges and universities. When the conference was founded it was originally known as the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Its founding fathers were Allen Washington and C.H. Williams of Hampton Institute; Earnest J. Marshall of Howard University; George Johnson of Lincoln University (PA); W.E. Atkins, Charles Fraser and H.P. Hargrove of Shaw University and J.W. Barco and J.W. Pierce of Virginia Union University. Student-athletes who compete in CIAA basketball this season continue a legacy of excellence that culminated in a competitive frenzy that began a half century ago. That culminating event was the first CIAA basketball tournament. Today, it is highly regarded as model for sports promotion. The first CIAA tournament was held at the end of the 1945-46 season in Turner’s Arena in Washington, D.C., where the North Carolina College men’s team reined victorious over that inaugural tournament. Lem Graves, who chronicled the tournament’s events for a weekly newspaper, wrote that it was the “all-time sports thrill of a lifetime.” Graves should receive a chorus of affirmation. The CIAA, which is comprised of 13 member institutions: Bowie State University, Chowan University, Elizabeth City State University, Fayetteville State University, Johnson C. Smith University, Lincoln University (PA), Livingstone College, Saint Augustine’s College, Saint Paul’s College, Shaw University, Virginia State University, Virginia Union University, and Winston-Salem State University, is divided into Northern and Southern Divisions, and sponsors sixteen annual championships. The men’s championships are football, cross country, basketball, indoor track, golf, outdoor track, baseball, and tennis. The eight women’s championships are cross country, basketball, indoor track, outdoor track, softball, volleyball, bowling and tennis. CIAA teams are recognized as national contenders in sports. In basketball, Virginia Union won NCAA Division II national titles in 2005, 1992, and 1980. North Carolina Central University (former affiliate) also won the national championship in 1989. CIAA basketball teams have appeared in the NCAA tournament each of the last thirty

years, and the conference has distinguished itself by having more teams compete for the national basketball title than any other conference at the Division II level. Division rivalries and heroic finishes are CIAA hallmarks. This season, more than any other, the legacy will surely continue… CIAA Sports Information Directors Association Greg Goings Sports Information Director Bowie State University goings@bowiestate.edu (301) 860-3574
