The Road to Success is Always Under Construction!

The Jacksonville State men’s basketball locker room received a complete overhaul during the summer of 2017 to reflect the Gamecocks’ championship play.

The renovated locker room received brand new lockers, updated shower facilities, hardwood floors and wall graphics that capture the program’s winning tradition. Each locker is personalized for each student-athlete, donning the player’s name, hometown, autograph and action photo.

But the upgrades did not end at the locker room. A connecting team room was added to the locker room, featuring luxurious theater seating, an 80-inch television for watching game film, a 55-inch television for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 and a nutrition bar.

Currently under construction is the Gamecocks’ new practice facility that is set to open during the 2018-19 season. The new practice court will feature offices, large windows facing the campus’ east side and a balcony overlook for those wanting to watch practice from the third floor of Pete Mathews Coliseum.

GAMECOCK BASKETBALL Pete Mathews Coliseum

The home of Gamecock basketball and volleyball, Pete Mathews Coliseum got a $2 million facelift in the summer of 2015 that replaced all seating, scorers tables and the playing surface.

A CHAMPIONSHIP TRADITION

A Championship Tradition Jacksonville State athletics had another stellar season on the fields of competition, while posting its best season ever in the classroom during the 2017-18 academic year. Off the field, the March 19 tornado created multiple challenges that Gamecock student-athletes were forced to overcome, bringing them together to help each other and their community.

The EF-3 tornado packed winds up to 150 miles per hour, damaged much of JSU’s campus and several of its athletics facilities and destroyed the homes of several student-athletes. Those athletes came together, however, with every one of JSU’s 17 varsity teams serving in some capacity to volunteer in the Jacksonville community and on campus.

On the field, the Gamecocks won their fourth-straight Ohio Valley Conference football championship and remained one of the nation’s top programs on the gridiron, while also claiming their 10th men’s golf title and the 15th softball title in school history.

The Gamecocks finished fourth in the OVC Commissioner’s Cup, marking the 10th-straight year the Gamecocks have finished in the Top 6 in the standings. The strong finish by Jacksonville State was led by three Ohio Valley Conference Championships as 15 teams advanced to postseason play in 2017-18, including NCAA appearances by football, men’s basketball, men’s golf and softball.

2018- 2 019 JACK SONV IL L E S TAT E M E N’ S BASKE T BAL L M EDI A GUI D E

Gamecock student-athletes also had its best season ever in the classroom after 16 teams posted a grade point average of 3.0 or higher to give the department a combined 3.26 GPA, the highest ever

by JSU’s student-athletes. It marked the sixth-straight year the department finished above a 3.0, led by five teams with a 3.5 or higher.

Walker Russell Former Jacksonville State guard Walker Russell (2003-06) became the first Gamecock to play in the NBA on Jan. 20, 2012, when he was signed by the Detroit Pistons and made his debut against the Memphis Grizzlies in the same day.

An All-OVC player for the Gamecocks and a member of JSU’s 1,000-Point Club, Russell played the remainder of the 2011-12 season with Detroit after a five-year career in the NBA Developmental league that saw him earn multiple all-star nods and average 15.1 points, 8.3 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game.

GAMECOCK BASKETBALL Former Jacksonville State forward Nick Murphy (2007-11) played three seasons in the NBA Development League, two with the Iowa Energy and one with the Tulsa 66’ers.

Murphy finished his JSU career as the school’s Division I record holder for points and rebounds, while his 1,498 career points ranks him fourth on the school’s all-time scoring list. Murphy grabbed 679 rebounds in his four seasons, just 20 away from landing him in the top 10 on the all-time rebounds list.

reg Seitz was named Director of Athletics at Jacksonville State

by President Dr. John M. Beehler on February 26, 2016 after more than two decades of service to the University.

“We are very excited to have Greg Seitz lead our athletic department,” Dr. Beehler said. “Greg is very well respected in the OVC, the NCAA and nationally, and has proven himself while serving in the interim role. We work very well together.

With his excellent contacts, he will do an outstanding job leading our athletic department into its bright future. I’m pleased to remove the interim title and introduce him as our Athletic Director.”

In Seitz’s three-plus years at the helm, the Gamecocks have seen unprecedented success on the field and in the classroom. The 201516 season saw JSU’s highest ever finish in the men’s Capital One Cup at No. 18, ranking the Gamecocks in the top 20 athletic departments among 347 NCAA Division I athletic programs.

The 2016-17 season also saw JSU finish in the top 40 at No. 39, tied with Louisville, Harvard and South Carolina and 35 spots ahead of the next Ohio Valley Conference program.

The 2015 football season saw the football team post it’s first-ever No. 1 ranking in school history, and earn the No. 1 National seed in the FCS Playoffs before advancing to JSU’s first Division I National Championship Game appearance. The Gamecocks set more than 50 school records and ranked in the top three in attendance at the FCS level after hosting three-straight home playoff games.

The Gamecocks have now won a JSU- and Ohio Valley Conference-record 32 consecutive league games, the longest active streak in Division I football entering 2018 and the second longest in FCS history. They have won four-straight OVC football titles, tying the conference record for consecutive crowns.

In the classroom, the Gamecock student-athletes posted an impressive 3.26 cumulative gradepoint average for last year, the highest mark in program history. It marked the sixth-straight year the student-athletes have achieved at least a 3.0

cumulative GPA. Additionally, 16 of the 17 sports at Jax State posted a team grade point average higher than a 3.0.

deck and service amenities, a new state-of-the-art press box to include radio and television broadcast booths, and a game operations center.

Seitz has been with JSU since 1993, when he began working as assistant sports information director. In 1999, he became Sports Information Director and was promoted to Associate Athletic Director in 2002, before being promoted to Senior Associate Athletic Director in 2011.

The summer of 2017 saw Seitz and the Board of Trustees release their plan to install new state-ofthe-art high definition video boards in BurgessSnow Field, Rudy Abbott Field and University Field, while also placing new scoreboards at the JSU Soccer Field and the JSU Tennis Courts.

“I am extremely humbled and honored to have the opportunity to serve as the Athletic Director at Jacksonville State,” Seitz said. “I would like to thank President Beehler, the Board of Trustees and the entire Jax State family for their trust and faith in me as we continue to move the athletic department forward. It is an opportunity that I do not take for granted, and I will work hard every day to ensure that we continue to be successful, both in the classroom and on the fields and courts of competition.”

Also in 2017, Seitz announced an extension of a 14-year partnership between JSU Athletics and adidas, securing the Portland, Ore., based company as the Gamecocks’ official athletic apparel and footwear brand through the 2021-22 season.

During his term as interim and Athletic Director, the JSU football team has enjoyed a rise to national prominence. The Gamecocks are unbeaten in Ohio Valley Conference play over the past three years, claiming three-straight outright titles and automatic bids into the FCS Playoffs.

During the 2014-15 athletic year, both the Jacksonville State men’s and women’s athletics teams were recognized in the final Capital One Cup standings, which honor the nation’s best Division I athletic programs. The Gamecock men’s team finished 61st, while the women finished 71st out of 347 NCAA Division I athletic programs.

Seitz has been instrumental in many of the facility upgrades at Jacksonville State, including renovations at Rudy Abbott Field, Pete Mathews Coliseum and the lobby of the football field house.

Seitz was also involved in the design and addition of the football stadium, and the recent softball stadium and dressing room expansion.

In the summer of 2016, Seitz unveiled plans for a $7.5 million renovation to JSU’s Baseball Stadium, Rudy Abbott Field. The project will be completed in time for the 2019 season and will include a 1,000seat spectator grand stand with a shade canopy, an elevated, shaded entertainment or hospitality

“Greg has worked tirelessly for a number of years in the athletic department at JSU, and also worked with the NCAA and AHSAA on several projects,” said Mr. Thomas Dedrick, chairman of the Athletic Committee of the JSU Board of Trustees. “In each capacity, Greg has earned the respect of both coaches and administrators. We feel that the work that he has done speaks volumes, and the knowledge of the University and its culture made Greg the best person for the job.”

Seitz has served on the NCAA Men’s Final Four Media Coordinator team for the last eight years and was named to the NCAA FCS Football Committee in 2016. He also serves as a site representative for the NCAA during the Division I Baseball Regionals and Super Regionals.

He has also worked numerous NCAA Championships and Alabama High School Athletic Association events over the last 25 years. In 2002, he became the first SID elected as President of the Alabama Sports Writers Association and currently serves as the organization’s secretary and treasurer.

THE HISTORY From modest beginnings, Jacksonville State University has evolved into the educational center of Northeast Alabama. The Alabama Legislature in the 1882-83 session created a state normal school when Governor Edward O’Neal signed into law a bill creating the school on February 22, 1883.

Jacksonville State Normal School acquired the facilities and equipment of Calhoun College, consisting of 12 acres of land and a twostory brick building. The Board of Directors elected James G. Ryals, Jr., as the first president. The school opened with three instructors: W. J. Borden, Mathematics; Eliza A. Bowen, English; and Ida J. Woodward, primary department. As stipulated in the establishing act, the Normal School administered a preparatory school for children of the town and surrounding areas. At the end of the first year, on August 15, 1884, William Mark Hames, President of the Board of Directors, reported that funds totaling $4,751.25 had been received, including $2,500 from the state; that 25 students were enrolled in the normal school; and that 222 were in the preparatory school.

2018- 2 019 JACK SONV IL L E S TAT E M E N’ S BASKE T BAL L M EDI A GUI D E

The Normal School remained in operation until 1930, when it became Jacksonville State Teachers College. Five years later, the College earned regional accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. The name again changed to Jacksonville State College in 1957 when the first graduate program—the master’s degree in elementary education—was created. On August 2, 1966, the Legislature authorized the State Board of Education to elevate the College to university status.

On August 17, 1967, the Legislature established an independent Board of Trustees for the University and divested jurisdiction from the State Board of Education.

24

Jacksonville State University has been served by 11 presidents: James G. Ryals, Jr. (1883-85), J. Harris Chappell (1885-86), Carleton Bartlett Gibson (1886-92), J. B. Jarrett (1892-93), Jacob Forney IV (1893-99), Clarence William Daugette (1899-1942), Houston Cole (1942-71), Ernest Stone (1971-81), Theron E. Montgomery (1981-86), Harold J. McGee (1986-99), and William A. Meehan (1999-present).

Jacksonville State University has developed into a modern regional university serving Northeast Alabama on a 392-acre campus with 63 buildings.

In addition, the University operates an off-campus center in Gadsden and videoconferencing sites throughout Alabama and Northwest Georgia.

Through its programs of teaching, research, and service, Jacksonville State University has served the region and state for more than 100 years.

April 6, 2016, Gamecocks athletics director Greg Seitz announced the hiring of Ray Harper as the program’s 11th head coach and the fifth to run the Gamecocks at the Division I level.

In his second year as head coach in 2017-18, Harper led Jacksonville State to its most wins in a single season, 23, since the program joined the Division I ranks. It was the first time in the program’s Division I history it won at least 20 games in back-to-back seasons, and the first time a JSU head coach accomplished the feat since legendary coach Bill Jones in 1990-91 and 1991-92 as a member of Division II. The Gamecocks’ 23-13 record represented just the third 20-win season in their D-1 history and the second under Harper.

The 2017-18 season also brought Jacksonville State its second appearance in a national postseason tournament.

After leading JSU to its first appearance in the NCAA Tournament only a year ago, Harper took the Gamecocks to the semifinals of the College Basketball Invitational.

Jacksonville State claimed wins over Canisius and Central Arkansas in the first and quarterfinal rounds, respectively, en route to its first ever wins in a major postseason tournament.

The second-year head coach also delivered a second

consecutive berth in the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament in 2018 - a first in JSU’s OVC history.

Jacksonville State had not appeared in consecutive conference tournaments since making the Atlantic Sun Tournament in 2003 and qualifying for the OVC Tournament in 2004. While at the Ford Center in Evansville, Ind., Harper helped the Gamecocks to a 73-70 win over Tennessee Tech in the first round, handing JSU its seventh OVC Tournament win in school history. Coupled with its three wins in the 2017 OVC Championships, the four-game winning streak stood as the longest undefeated streak in the OVC Tournament in the program’s history.

full-time head coach in early February. At WKU, he went to the NCAA Tournament in 2012 and 2013 and won 20 games in his first three full seasons, making him the first coach in WKU history to achieve the feat.

After taking the helm at Western Kentucky, the

In his first season as head coach, Harper inherited a 2016-17 team that was 8-23 the season prior and had not qualified for an OVC Tournament since 2012.

The Gamecocks were picked to finish 12th out of 12 teams during preseason polling, and since joining the Division I ranks in 1993, JSU had never won a conference championship or appeared in the NCAA Tournament. Less than one year after his hire date, the first-year head coach completely changed the perception of Jacksonville State basketball.

The Gamecocks went on to complete one of the most successful seasons in the program’s history in 2016-17. Harper led JSU to its first ever Ohio Valley Conference title, first appearance in the Division I NCAA Tournament and just the second 20-win season in the program’s Division I history. JSU finished the 2016-17 campaign as the sixth-most improved team in the nation (+10.0 wins).

The Gamecocks clinched a berth to just their fifth OVC Tournament since joining the league in 2003-04 with a 70-61 road win over Morehead State to cap the regular season. JSU entered the conference tournament as the No. 3 seed, earning a first-round bye. Jacksonville State defeated No. 5 seeded Southeast Missouri 74-51 in the first round, upset top-seeded Belmont 65-59 in the second round and downed No. 2 seeded UT Martin 66-55 to claim its first Division I title.

Harper became only the second head coach in JSU history to lead the Gamecocks to a 20-win season as a Division I program. He is just the second Jacksonville State head coach to win 20 games in his first season at the helm, tying Jones who began his tenure in 1974 with a 20-7 clip. Harper is one of three first-year head coaches to enjoy a .500+ record; Jones was the last to accomplish the feat in a premiere season 42 years ago.

A veteran with over 30 years of coaching experience at the collegiate ranks, Harper boasts a 474-155 career record in 19 years as a head coach. That career includes four national championships - two at the Division II level and two in NAIA. His .754 career winning percentage is best among all active OVC coaches.

Harper came to Jacksonville after a five-year stint at Western Kentucky that saw him post an 89-64 mark that included three 20-win seasons and two trips to the NCAA Tournament. After serving over two years as an assistant at WKU, he took over as the Hilltoppers’ interim coach in January of the 2011-12 season and was named the

FASTEST COACH IN NCAA HISTORY TO 200 WINS (224 GAMES) NCAA RECORD FOR MOST CONSECUTIVE 30-WIN SEASONS (6) 1998-2003 Hilltoppers went 11-8 (interim) and 7-1 after he was named full-time head coach, which came after starting the season with a 5-11 record.

His debut with the Hilltoppers saw him rally them to the Sun Belt Conference Tournament title and a win over Mississippi Valley State in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament in Dayton.

A 20-12 record in 2012-13 ended with the Hilltoppers’ second trip to the Big Dance in as many years.

Prior to joining the WKU program as an assistant in 2009, Harper built a head coaching resume that included four national championships, five national runner-up finishes, eight conference titles, five national coach-of-the-year honors and a 342-63 record over 12 years at Kentucky Wesleyan and Oklahoma City University.

Harper was named the NCAA Division II National Coach of the Year four-straight years from 1999-2002, while earning the honor at the NAIA Division I level once with Oklahoma City following the 2008 title run. He was selected conference coach of the year on seven occasions, as well as the region coach of the year twice.

In nine years at his alma mater Kentucky Wesleyan in Owensboro, Ky., Harper laid claim to seven NCAA coaching records, surpassing Division I record-holders in all instances, including becoming the fastest to 200 wins (224 games), holding the most consecutive 30-win seasons (6) and compiling the most wins in each of the first four-through-eight seasons of his career.

With NCAA Division II title game appearances each season from 1998-03, he became the first NCAA head coach since John Wooden to appear in six-straight NCAA National Championship games. He won in ‘99 and ‘01.

The NCAA requires a minimum of 10 seasons at the Division II level to officially qualify for its list of head coaching records, but Harper’s nine-year record of 247-46 at Kentucky Wesleyan would give him the best winning percentage in Division II history at .843.

At Kentucky Wesleyan, he coached two National Players of the Year, seven All-Americans and nine NABC Great Lakes All-Region players. He had 11 players selected All-Great Lakes Valley Conference and two that were named the league’s player of the year.

On February 17, 2008, Harper’s number 12 jersey was retired at Kentucky Wesleyan, and the floor at Jones Gymnasium was named “Ray Harper Court.”

From Kentucky Wesleyan, Harper went to Oklahoma City, where in three seasons at the NAIA Division I institution, Harper put together a 95-17 record that featured back-to-back national titles in ‘07 and ‘08.

He has also coached on the international level, having led USA Basketball men’s junior team to a 7-1 record and a fifth-place finish at the 2003 FIBA World Championships in Greece.

The native of Bremen, Ky., and a 1985 graduate of Kentucky Wesleyan, Harper was a two-year starter for the Panthers after transferring from Texas. He became the school’s first All-American as a senior, and he also earned most outstanding player in the regional as well as all-region and all-conference accolades. The 1981 Southwest Conference Rookie of the Year at Texas after averaging 9.8 points and 3.9 assists per outing, Harper finished his college career with 1,187 points and 605 assists at the two schools.

In April of 2010, Harper was named to Kentucky Wesleyan’s All-Century Team. Harper coached 12 of the 30 players on the All-Century Team Harper scored 3,033 points during his high school playing career, earning all-state honors as a senior and District Player of the Year acclaim twice. He earned his Master’s degree from WKU in 1995.

2 017 O H I O VA L L E Y C O N F E R E N C E C H A M P I O N S

Through seven seasons, he had more victories than any coach at the NCAA Division I and II levels (210). Harper reached 200 wins in 224 games, which was faster than NCAA Division I record holder and Hall of Famer Clair Bee, who won 200 in 231 games.

ASSISTANT COACH

Tommy Wade

Ray Harper added another familiar face to his Jacksonville State bench upon arrival, hiring veteran coach Tommy Wade as an assistant with the Gamecock men’s basketball program.

Wade came to JSU from Saint Louis, where he was named the Billikens’ Director of StudentAthlete Development in April 2016. He went to SLU with head coach Travis Ford, for whom he served eight seasons as the Director of Player Development at Oklahoma State.

Wade returned to Harper’s side just under a decade after helping the JSU head coach as an assistant at Oklahoma City and Kentucky Wesleyan. He and Harper led OCU to back-to-back NAIA Division I championship seasons. With Wade’s assistance, OCU went 95-17 with three NAIA national title game appearances, three Sooner Athletic Conference championships and two SAC Tournament titles in three seasons. He also coached six AllAmericans.

2018- 2 019 JACK SONV IL L E S TAT E M E N’ S BASKE T BAL L M EDI A GUI D E

Prior to OCU, Wade was Harper’s assistant at Kentucky Wesleyan, which won the 2001 NCAA Division II championship, reached four national

championship games, won three regular-season Great Lakes Valley Conference crowns, three conference tournament titles and posted four 30-win seasons in six years. Kentucky Wesleyan went 161-24 during Wade’s tenure as an assistant.

Wade has coached as an assistant at OCU, Kentucky Wesleyan, Missouri State, Murray State, South Alabama and St. Catherine College in Kentucky. He began his coaching career at Hopkinsville University Heights Academy in Kentucky, where he directed the team to the Class A state championship in 1991.

Wade has been a part of four NCAA Tournament teams. At South Alabama, Wade aided in winning two Sun Belt Conference championships and two NCAA Tournament berths working as an assistant coach for Bill Musselman and Bob Weltich. Wade was also part of an Ohio Valley Conference championship team at Murray State, and was an assistant coach for Jacksonville State’s OVC championship.

A native of Hopkinsville, Ky., Wade was an all-state player at Hopkinsville High School as a senior in 1975. He played basketball at Murray State his freshman and sophomore seasons and transferred to Southeast Missouri State for his junior and senior years.

His basketball career continued by playing professionally in Argentina for three years and one season in Europe before entering the coaching ranks.

Wade earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education from Southeast Missouri State in 1992.

Following his playing career at Miami, Morton went on to play professionally in Israel for six years.

Morton’s coaching career began in New York, where he served as a counselor and coach at the Five-Star Basketball Camp, which included future collegiate and NBA stars such as Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul.

He has three children: daughter Catherine Alexis and sons Jalen and Joshua.

Why We Are The Gamecocks “Go Eagle Owls!” would be the resounding cry from Paul Snow Stadium today if ardent fans hadn’t decided 50 years ago that the school mascot should be a bird of a different feather.

Jacksonville State University’s first football team was fielded in the late 1800’s and nicknamed in honor of a rare predatory bird found near the Arctic circle.

The exact details are lost to history, but a group of fans decided it was hard for the school’s image to soar like an eagle if the team’s name was something of a turkey.

People like E.C. Wilson, Bruce Chase and Charles Sprayberry felt a more collegiatesounding moniker would be more appropriate.

The supporters looked to Southern culture rather than the north pole to symbolize the school’s tough spirit. Tongue firmly planted in beak, Gamecock supporters crowed the loudest, and the University found itself with a new identity: a mascot familiar to everyone, including the farm boys who comprised most of the student body back then.

2018- 2 019 JACK SONV IL L E S TAT E M E N’ S BASKE T BAL L M EDI A GUI D E

For nearly a half-century – up until 1946 – the fledgling Eagle Owls hooted with pride from the scanty facilities adjacent to the field at John Forney National Guard Armory.

32

The State Normal School (SNS) team was sparse by today’s standards, but

the gridiron action was competitive from the start. Present day rivalries such as Samford (Howard College) and Troy State were rooted in those early games.

The team had only 23 players when SNS was renamed Jacksonville Teachers College in 1946, with Head Coach Don Salls beginning his first season, but there was a “big school” atmosphere developing in the foothills.

Along with the new name came new colors. The blue and gold were tossed out in favor of the familiar red and white worn by the area high school players.

The story goes that there were two camps - those who wanted to keep the Eagle Owl nickname and those who wanted new colors. Legend has it that a compromise was worked out; new colors for a new mascot.

It was all worked out by 1947

when the Fighting Gamecocks took to the field for the first time. And, as is true to the nature of the warlike bird itself, the football team and other athletes fought their way to respectability in intercollegiate ranks - eventually bringing home a national championship in every major sport.

Tennessee Wesleyan 42, Jacksonville State 100

Jacksonville State 96, Richmond 61

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team began their reign as Ohio Valley Conference champions Friday night with a 100-42 win over Tennessee Wesleyan at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

JSU put on a defensive clinic, forcing 14 turnovers and out-rebounding the Bulldogs 55-43.

Big man Christian Cunningham recorded four of the night’s seven blocked shots. The 42 TWU points were the least scored against the Jacksonville State offense since holding Cal State Fullerton to 38 points in Las Vegas on Nov. 25, 2016.

The offense delivered a balanced attack, as well, as 12 of the 13 Gamecocks to see game action scored points. It was the first time in 380 games the Gamecocks scored 100 or more points. The last time JSU hit triple digits was Nov. 23, 2004 in a 112-94 win over Shorter at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

Five Gamecocks – Jamall Gregory, Maurice Dunlap, Malcolm Drumwright, Jason Burnell and Marlon Hunter – each score 10 or more points in the 58-point victory. Dunlap and Hunter led the way with 12 points each, Gregory and Drumwright both had 11, and Burnell tallied 10. It was also the first time the Gamecocks had five score in double figures since last season at Tennessee Tech.

Tennessee Wesleyan claimed an early 1-0 lead and tussled with the advantage until the 16:34 mark of the first half. Sophomore Ashton Spears knocked down a three-pointer to put the Gamecocks ahead 6-4, and head coach Ray Harper’s squad never looked back.

JSU began a 14-0 run with Spears’ three-ball, to push its lead to 17-4 before the midway point of the first period. Spears ended the first half with eight points, tied for the team lead in scoring with Drumwright’s eight points.

Along with a Tyrik Edwards free throw and Gregory’s ridiculous three-pointer from the first half, the Gamecocks tallied a 41-0 run and held the Bulldogs scoreless for 4:17.

RICHMOND, Va. – An early start time and an arena full of school kids had no ill effect on Jacksonville State in its first road contest of the young season with a dominating 94-61 win over Richmond on Monday afternoon.

The Gamecocks were able to silence the crowd by shooting 57 percent from the field and limiting the Spiders to just 38 percent. The 33-point win is the largest margin of victory for Jax State in a true road contest in its NCAA Division I history. It is also the largest winning margin on the road since beating Alabama-Huntsville 119-81 during the 1989 season under Bill Jones in the NCAA Division II era. JSU moves to 2-0 on the season, while RU remained winless on the season at 0-2.

The Gamecocks led for nearly 38 minutes of the contest and took control of the contest in the final 11 minutes of the opening half with a 35-11 scoring run to close out the half to take a 50-29 lead in to the halftime break. JSU’s ability to shoot 63 percent (19-of-30) from the field, was aided by five of the squads 12 three pointers in the opening 20 minutes.

JSU knew the Spiders would try to make a run to get back in to the contest to start the second half but the hot shooting continued as it shot just over 50 percent from the field.

The Gamecocks pushed the double figure lead out to as many as 35 points just under the midway point of the game at 70-45.

For the second consecutive game, JSU played majority of its roster as 12 players saw action and 10 of the 12 recorded points in a total-team scoring effort. After having five Gamecocks in double digits in the scoring column in the season opener against Tennessee Wesleyan on Friday night, JSU had four players on Monday, led by senior Norbertas Giga with a game-high 18 points. Junior Christian Cunningham turned in his eighth doubledouble of his career with 16 points and 11 rebounds. Cunningham filled up the stat sheet with four blocks and a pair of steal versus the Spiders.

Junior Marlon Hunter, Making his first start in a Gamecock uniform collected 11 points, five rebounds and three assists. Junior Jamall Gregory rounded out the four Gamecock double figure point producers with 10 points.

Jacksonville State 86, Savannah State 71

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Despite a tremendous performance from senior Malcolm Drumwright Wednesday night, the Jacksonville State Gamecocks dropped their first game of the season with an 81-76 loss to Buffalo at the Bulls’ Alumni Arena.

Drumwright was 7-for-13 from the floor and was a perfect 4-for-4 from the line. The point guard sunk three three-pointers during 37 minutes of play, but it wasn’t enough to pulled the Gamecocks from a second-half deficit that reached 12 points.

JSU put the game’s first two points on the board, but Buffalo stormed back with a 12-point run to put the Gamecocks down 12-2 after nearly five minutes of play. The Bulls held the lead until the 6:10 mark of the first half. Drumwright hit a jumper to put JSU ahead 24-23, and a tip-in by junior Marlon Hunter pushed the lead to three, 26-23.

Buffalo tied the contest and reclaimed the lead on its next two trips down the court and took a 33-32 lead into the half. Despite trailing by just one, the Gamecocks again saw their deficit grow by double digits after five minutes. The Bulls extended their lead to a gamehigh 12 points halfway through the second period, proving to be too deep of a hole for Jacksonville State to dig itself out.

Hunter, Jamall Gregory and Norbertas Giga each pitched in 11 points, but foul trouble for Giga, Burnell and Christian Cunningham cost the Gamecocks down the stretch. Each of the three towers finished the night with four fouls.

The Gamecocks return home Nov. 30 to take on Alabama State at 7 p.m. at Pete Mathews Coliseum. Until then, JSU has three road games ahead of it. The Gamecocks are in Chattanooga, Tenn., Nov. 20-21 for matchups with Savannah State and the winner of the Chattanooga/Alabama State game. Sunday, Nov. 26, Jacksonville State takes on Mississippi State in Starkville, Miss., at 2 p.m.

Tickets are now available for purchase online at JSUGamecocksTickets.com, by phone at (256) 782-8499 and on campus at the JSU Ticket Office at Kennamer Hall. Children 18-years-old and under and JSU students are admitted free.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- Senior Malcolm Drumwright became the 24th Gamecock to join the 1000 Point Club Monday night as he led the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team past Savannah State 86-71 in the opening game of the Cayman Islands Classic Chattanooga Bracket, at UTC’s McKenzie Arena.

The Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., native opened the game with a three-pointer from the top of the key to achieve the career milestone. He is the first Gamecock since Darion Rackley (2015) to join the 1000 Point Club.

Junior Jamall Gregory scored a career-best 23 points and swatted a career-best four blocks in the 15-point victory over the Tigers, leading six Gamecocks in double-digit scoring. JSU controlled the game from the start and built up a 49-26 lead by the half. Senior Norbertas Giga tallied 12 points in the first period, while first-time starter Ashton Spears racked up nine first-half points and seven rebounds.

Jacksonville State controlled the boards in the first half, out-rebounding the Tigers 28-15.

JSU snagged 22 defensive rebounds and six offensive rebounds, compared to Savannah State’s two offensive rebounds and 13 defensive rebounds.

Savannah State nearly doubled its points total from the first half, putting up 45 secondperiod points, but the Gamecocks were able to hang on despite being outscored by eight in the half. Tigers’ guard Dexter McClanahan put up a team-best 22 points in the loss.

Gregory (23), Giga (14), Drumwright (13), Christian Cunningham (12), Maurice Dunlap (12) and Ashton Spears (10) each ended the night in double-digit points. It’s the second time this season five or more Gamecocks have scored 10 or more points in a single game.

Jacksonville State will play the winner between tonight’s Chattanooga/Alabama State matchup tomorrow at McKenzie Arena to wrap up the tournament. Tipoff time will depend on the outcome of tonight’s late game.

Jacksonville State 77, Chattanooga 75 Nov. 21, 2017 - McKenzie Arena

Nov. 26, 2017 - Humphrey Coliseum

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – A 27-point performance from senior Malcolm Drumwright lifted the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team to a 77-75 overtime win over Chattanooga Tuesday night at McKenzie Arena.

The OT victory was the Gamecocks’ first since downing Georgia State 80-74 in two overtimes on Nov. 22, 2008 (a span of 272 games), and was the first win over UTC since Feb. 22, 1975. Among the historical milestones achieved, Jacksonville State claimed the Cayman Islands Classic – Chattanooga Bracket championship with the win.

JSU and UTC went to overtime tied 70-70 following a three-pointer hit by Chattanooga’s Rodney Chatman with eight seconds to go in regulation. With 1:42 left on the clock in the five-minute overtime period, Makinde London hit a free throw to put the Mocs up by an OT-best three points, but the 6-foot-10 junior missed the second free throw and Jason Burnell made Chattanooga pay. Sixteen seconds later, the JSU junior hit a big three-pointer to tie the game at 75 with 1:26 to go.

Marlon Hunter delivered the final blow on a layup with 32 seconds to go. The Gamecocks’ defense then stole the ball away and forced an errant three-pointer as time expired.

Drumwright scored 25 of his 27 points following the conclusion of the first half. The senior played a whopping 44 minutes, was 11-for-22 from the floor and hit four of seven threepointers taken.

Jamall Gregory led JSU scorers with 10 points in the first period, scoring five within the first two minutes of play. The junior then hit three consecutive foul shots to help the Gamecocks to a half-best five-point lead.

Chattanooga battled back from the five-point deficit and took a brief lead, but a nine-point run, fueled by a Burnell jumper and three-pointer, erased the Mocs’ advantage and put the Gamecocks back up by five, 24-19, with less than seven minutes to go in the period.

JSU held onto the lead until the 16:21 mark of the second half when a London trey put UTC ahead 42-41 – the Mocs’ first lead since 9:40 in the first. The lead changed hands seven more times before the end of regulation.

Gregory and Burnell each ended the night with 10 points, while senior Norbertas Giga followed tallied 11 points and a team-high 13 rebounds.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team was not able to survive a late Mississippi State rally Sunday afternoon, falling 59-56 to the SEC foe on a last-second three-pointer at Humphrey Coliseum.

Senior Norbertas Giga picked up his first double-double of the season, totaling 15 points and 10 rebounds despite the loss. The seven-footer was six-for-11 from the floor and threw in three assists.

Jacksonville State held the lead for nearly 25 minutes, beginning about halfway through the first half when the Gamecocks began a nine-point run. With 12:47 remaining in the opening period, Jason Burnell hit a layup to pull the Bulldogs within two, 8-6, and a couple a Tyrik Edwards free throws tied the game shortly after.

The momentum swung 100% in the Gamecocks’ favor just 30 seconds later. Burnell rejected Holman at the basket dunked it on the other end of the court to put JSU up by two.

Marlon Hunter followed up with a three-pointer from the corner to put the Gamecocks up 13-8 and force a Mississippi State timeout.

The Gamecocks took a 29-25 lead into the break and jumped out to an eight-point advantage to begin the second half via a four three-point buckets, but the Bulldogs would not go away. Mississippi State reclaimed the lead, 50-49, at the 6:35 mark on a Quinndary Weatherspoon layup.

The two teams exchanged baskets the remainder of the game and saw the score tied until the final seconds of the contest. With 0.4 seconds left on the clock, Weatherspoon stepped back and sunk the game-winning three-pointer. Jacksonville State had the opportunity to inbound, but only to have it touched up fall to the floor to kill the clock.

Nov. 30, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

Dec. 3, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

JACKSONVILLE – Junior Christian Cunningham’s double-double and freshman Cam Martin’s career-best 12 points led the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team past Alabama State 77-69 Thursday at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

Martin scored a career-high 12 points, and Cunningham posted his second double-double of the year with 12 points and 11 rebounds.

“Cam is going to be a good player,” head coach Ray Harper said. “He physical, can make shots and is ready offensively. And I thought Christian got back going tonight. His 11 rebounds were big.”

The Hornets held the advantage for six minutes in the first half until the Gamecocks took a permanent lead at the 11:02 mark. Senior Norbertas Giga hit a turnaround-jumper to give JSU a 16-14 lead and Jacksonville State never looked back.

Giga scored all nine of his points in the first to lead the Gamecocks in the half. Junior Maurice Dunlap hit a couple of three-pointers and Martin found the basket for six points to follow up the seven-footer.

Jacksonville State came out firing on all cylinders to begin the second half. JSU enjoyed a nine-point run to start the period and extended its lead to a night-best 29 three-quarters of the way through the game.

Alabama State outscored the Gamecocks 47-40 in the second, forcing JSU to withstand a late-game rally. The Hornets shortened the lead to six, 75-69, with 32 seconds to play, but junior Marlon Hunter hit the final two free throws of the game with 11 seconds to go to add insurance points to the board.

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team routed Samford 89-58 Sunday afternoon at Pete Mathews Coliseum, and senior Malcolm Drumwright led the way with a 21-point performance.

Drumwright led a pack of six Gamecocks that scored in double-figures. Marlon Hunter and Ashton Spears each had 14, Norbertas Giga scored 12 and Jamall Gregory and Jason Burnell each posted 10.

“I told Malcolm he played like a senior,” head coach Ray Harper said. “He dominated the game, controlled the game and didn’t force anything. There’s no question who the best player on the floor was today, and it was Malcolm Drumwright.”

The senior directed the Gamecocks to their first win over Samford in 11 seasons. The last time JSU was victorious over the Bulldogs was Dec. 8, 2005 in Birmingham, and the last home win against the program came Feb. 24, 2004 – both wins under then-head coach Mike LaPlante.

Jacksonville State took total control of the game at the quarter mark. The score was tied five times and the lead changed hands seven times before JSU took the permanent advantage with 9:38 remaining in the first half.

Drumwright hit one of his five 3-pointers to give the Gamecocks an 18-17 lead halfway through the period, and from there it got out of hand. The Bulldogs went on a scoring drought of three minutes while JSU enjoyed a 12-point run. From that point until the end of the half, Jacksonville State outscored Samford 31-12.

The second half was much of the same with JSU outworking the Bulldogs 40-29. The Gamecock defense held Samford to 17.6% from 3-point range in the period and limited its offense to 12-of-35 from the floor. Again, Drumwright paced the scoring in the second with nine points.

Dec. 9, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

Dec. 12, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

JACKSONVILLE – After trailing by two at the half, the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team responded by holding the University of Louisiana at Monroe to 21 second-half points in route to a 75-56 win Saturday afternoon at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

Junior Christian Cunningham posted a double-double on 12 points and 12 rebounds, and senior Malcolm Drumwright recorded his sixth double-digit scoring contest of the season with a team-best 18 points in the 19-point victory.

The Gamecocks (7-2) and Warhawks (3-5) went toe-to-toe in the first half. At the end of the period, both had 13 field goals and four successful free throws, but ULM’s five 3-pointers compared to Jacksonville State’s three gave the visitors a 35-33 halftime advantage.

Head coach Ray Harper called for some adjustments at the half, and the effect was felt immediately. After scoring just four points in the first, junior Jamall Gregory scored seven of the Gamecocks’ next 13 points to blow the contest open at the start of the second period.

Just before the under-12 media timeout, the JSU defense had forced seven ULM turnovers, kept the Warhawks from sinking a field goal in over three minutes and held them to 2-for10 shooting from the floor.

In total, ULM turned the ball over 13 times, and nine of those came in the second half.

The JSU defense also blocked 10 shots – the second most recorded in a game this season behind the Gamecocks’ 11 against Alabama State on Nov. 30.

Following the half opening 13-point run, Jacksonville State’s lead hit a game-high 19 at the 4:30 mark. ULM and JSU traded baskets for the final 4:51, but Jacksonville native Des Curry got the last word with a jumper in the closing seconds to push the Gamecocks’ lead back to 19 when the final horn sounded.

Including Drumwright and Cunningham, four JSU scorers put up double-digit points.

Gregory was 6-of-9 with a free throw for 14 points, and Marlon Hunter finished with 12.

CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team dropped a heartbreaking game Monday night at Oregon State, falling 70-69 to the Pac-12’s Beavers at Gill Coliseum.

The Gamecocks (7-3) were not able to upend the Power 5 program despite outscoring OSU (7-3) 34-26 in the paint and snagging five additional rebounds. Senior Malcolm Drumwright tallied 20 points for the fourth time this season, while Jason Burnell (14) and Marlon Hunter (12) each recorded double-digit points.

Hunter scored a half-best 12 points that helped the Gamecocks to a 36-33 advantage at the break. Jacksonville State out-worked the Beavers 18-14 in the paint, but lack of free throws kept the contest tight at the half. Oregon State was 10-for-14 from the line in the period, while JSU shot and made just four free throws.

The Gamecocks out-rebounded the home team 19-13 in the period, and their stout defense held the Beavers from hitting a field goal for a six-minute stretch halfway through the opening stanza.

Drumwright posted 12 of his 20 points in the second half, but the Beavers out-scored JSU 37-33 in the closing period to lay claim to the nail-biter. The Gamecocks had an opportunity at a game-winning basket in the final seconds, but the Oregon State defense was too strong in the end.

The loss snaps a three-game winning streak that included victories over Alabama State, Samford and ULM. JSU falls to 2-3 on the road this season.

GAME 11

USC Upstate 61, Jacksonville State 77

Dec. 18, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

JACKSONVILLE – Six Gamecocks scored in double-figures Saturday afternoon in a 77-61 victory over USC Upstate at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

JSU (8-3) accomplished the feat for the third time this season as Malcolm Drumwright (13), Jamall Gregory (12), Jason Burnell (12), Norbertas Giga (11), Marlon Hunter (11) and Christian Cunningham (11) accounted for 70 of Jacksonville State’s 77 points scored.

The Gamecocks dished out 23 assists in helping to spread out the scoring effort, and eight of those belong to Gregory as he set a personal-best for helpers in a single game.

“Coach Harper always talks about making the extra pass, communicating and being unselfish,” Gregory said. “I think we did a good job of that and being selfless today. We have a lot of weapons on offense, and we want to utilize them all.”

Giga and Cunningham completed double-doubles with 10 rebounds each, in addition to their 11 points each. The two towers steered the Gamecocks to outscoring the Spartans (3-10) 43-25, limiting the visitors to just seven offensive boards the entire game.

The Gamecocks improved to 5-0 with the win, marking the first time JSU has been perfect through five home games since the 2014-15 season.

Ray Harper’s squad took a 35-30 to the locker room after jumping out to a quick 8-2 advantage to begin the game. Gregory scored 10 of his 12 points and five of his eight assists in the first period.

An eight-point run carried over from the first half into the second half for the Gamecocks.

Giga scored four during the run and pulled down his final three rebounds during the period to complete his double-double performance. Burnell led the JSU scoring effort in the half with 10 points.

In total, Jacksonville State shot 50% (31-for-62) from the floor for the eighth time this season and held Upstate to 24 points in the paint.

JACKSONVILLE – The Gamecocks survived a late scare to improve to 6-0 at home with a 62-60 win Monday over Howard at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

Jacksonville State (9-3) rallied from a four-point deficit at the half to outscore the Bison (2-11) 39-33 in the second.

The contest came down to the last second with the Gamecocks leading by one. A contested Malcolm Drumwright fell to give JSU the lead, 61-60, and a free throw from the senior just moments later cushioned the lead to two points.

With 23 seconds remaining, Howard’s Michael Obindu snagged an offensive rebound and the Bison called timeout. Shooter Charles Williams, who had one 3-pointer in the game already, fired up a trey with two seconds on the clock. The shot banked off the back of the iron and JSU’s Christian Cunningham pulled down the board to secure the win.

“We got one of their best shots tonight,” head coach Ray Harper said. “RJ Cole is one heck of a player, and he played like it tonight, but I thought Marlon Hunter did a good job of guarding him late.”

Cole finished the night with 27 points and was 6-for-11 from beyond the arc, but the JSU defense was able to keep the ball out of his hands in the dwindling seconds.

“You can learn from wins just like you can losses, “Harper said. “Hopefully we learned a lesson here tonight. We’re 2-2 in these situations. We beat Chattanooga in overtime, but lost to Mississippi State and Oregon State late. We have to come back Thursday and be focused for UTC so we can go into the break on a positive note.”

The Gamecocks had four score in double-figures with Jason Burnell and Ashton Spears leading the way with 14 each. Drumwright posted 12 and Hunter pitched in 11.

Despite being outrebounded 37-31, JSU forced 16 turnovers and totaled 14 assists. The Gamecocks won the battle in the paint 28-12 and scored 18 points off turnovers. The difference in the game came at the free throw line as Jacksonville State hit 17 of 21 freebies while Howard was 6-for-9 from the line.

Dec. 21, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

Dec. 28, 2017 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team dropped a hard-fought 70-67 contest to Chattanooga Thursday afternoon at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

The Gamecocks (9-4) took the Mocs (6-6) down to the wire, but a 3-pointer with 29 seconds left from UTC’s Makale Foreman proved to be the difference in the game. Jacksonville State got the ball back with nine seconds remaining, but the Chattanooga defense was able to keep the ball out of the hands of the hot-shooting Malcolm Drumwright in the final moments to secure the win.

Drumwright missed most of the first half due to foul trouble, but totaled a team-best 17 points in the second half.

“I thought we were very undisciplined and didn’t communicate,” head coach Ray Harper said. “We were in the air on shot fakes and left guys open, and the last three of the game got drained because we left the ball-side corner open. We can’t do that, and that’s what happens when you’re undisciplined.”

Christian Cunningham was nearly unstoppable the entire game. The junior recorded his team-best fifth double-double of the season by way of 14 points and 12 rebounds. He was 7-for-8 from the field and pulled down a game-high seven offensive rebounds.

Jacksonville State led 32-25 at the half following respectable defense performance in the half. JSU forced six turnovers, four coming within a four-minute window, and kept the Mocs scoreless during a five-minute window.

Marlon Hunter hit a layup to push the Gamecocks’ lead to nine following the break, but the advantage dwindled and disappeared at the 12:28 mark. UTC’s James Lewis hit backto-back free throws to give Chattanooga a 43-42 lead – its first since the beginning of the game.

Jacksonville State regained the lead shortly after and managed a four-point cushion with five minutes to play, but more Chattanooga free throws tied the game at 67-67 with 1:19 to go. Foreman’s game-winning three followed less than a minute later.

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State Gamecocks topped Eastern Kentucky 76-58 Thursday night to open their Ohio Valley Conference schedule with a win.

Senior Norbertas Giga posted his fourth double-double of the year and 10th of his career, scoring 14 points with 13 rebounds, while junior Marlon Hunter scored a careerbest 20 points in the 18-point victory.

The Gamecocks (10-4, 1-0 OVC) held the Colonels (6-8, 0-1 OVC) 14.8 points below their season scoring average and nearly matched EKU’s scoring defensive mark of 76.3 points per game.

Jacksonville State allowed just 14 first-half points, outscoring EKU 32-14 in the opening period. The Gamecocks jumped out to an 11-0 lead and did not allow the Colonels to get on the board until a successful foul shot fell at the 11:58 mark. Hunter tallied nine of his 20 points in the first half, while Giga pitched in a second-best eight.

Nine of Eastern Kentucky’s 14 points in the first came from DeAndre Dishman off the bench. Aside from the 6-foot-6 forward going 3-for-4 from the field, Jacksonville State’s defense limited the EKU offense to 18.2% shooting and 0-for-11 from beyond the arc in the first.

EKU picked up the pace in the second half, scoring 44 points, but JSU matched the Colonels’ total to hang onto the 18-point lead. Hunter finished out the second half with 11 points, while junior Christian Cunningham posted all eight of his points in the closing period. Jacksonville State matched it’s 11-0 run in the first with another 11-0 run in the second, jumping from a 42-25 advantage to a 53-25 advantage in a three-minute span.

Jacksonville State improved to 8-7 in OVC openers with the win, having claimed five of their last six openers. The victory also snapped an 0-5 skid against the Colonels, making the first win over Eastern Kentucky since Jan. 22, 2015.

Head coach Ray Harper reached a historical milestone with the win, becoming the fastest head coach in JSU history to record 30 victories. Harper is 30-19 in 49 games at the helm in Jacksonville. His career record now stands at 461-146 in 19 seasons as a head coach.

Morehead State 69, Jacksonville State 76

Jacksonville State 60, Tennessee State 67

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team battled back from a ninepoint halftime deficit to upend Morehead State 76-69 at Pete Mathews Coliseum Saturday night.

Senior Norbertas Giga helped the Gamecocks (11-4, 2-0 OVC) to their second consecutive Ohio Valley Conference victory with his second double-double in as many games. The seven-foot forward deposited 17 points and pulled down a career-high 14 rebounds, tying junior Christian Cunningham for most double-doubles this season (5).

“Morehead State is probably one of the tougher teams in the conference,” head coach Ray Harper said. “They are very aggressive and physical on the glass. I thought they outtoughed us in the first half, but we played like there was one minute to go the rest of the game. We executed better and moved the ball really well in the second half.”

Despite the seven-point margin of victory in the end, Jacksonville State trailed 40-31 at the half. Aside from nine points from Giga, who was 4-for-8 in the first period, Morehead State (4-9, 0-2 OVC) held the Gamecocks to 36.4% shooting in the opening half. Meanwhile, the Eagles were 15-for-31 (48.4%) and knocked down six 3-pointers.

Jacksonville State rallied back in the second half, outscoring MSU a whopping 45-29. Five Gamecocks posted more than five points in the closing period, led by Burnell’s nine. JSU shot 51.9% in the second half, while the Gamecock defense limited the Eagles to just 30.0% in the second.

“We defended a lot better in the second half,” Harper said. “I think we have to do a better job of preparing. I don’t think we were very well prepared for their offense and seemed confused.

Along with Giga’s 17 points, Burnell tallied 16 points and junior Maurice Dunlap scored 10 points off the bench. On the defensive end, Cunningham swatted three shots to bring his season total to 32 blocks.

For the first time in the OVC history of the JSU men’s and women’s basketball programs, both teams are 2-0 to begin conference play. The last time the two programs were each 2-0 in conference action was 2002-03 as part of the Atlantic Sun Conference.

Jacksonville State is now 3-1 in games they trail at the half, and improve to 9-1 when leading with five minutes to go.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team dropped its first Ohio Valley Conference matchup of the season Thursday night, falling 67-60 in a tight contest with the Tigers at Tennessee State.

The Gamecocks (11-5, 2-1 OVC) were forced to turn the ball over 16 times, while the Tigers (6-8, 1-2 OVC) were a perfect 16-for-16 from the free-throw line. Jacksonville State was able to tie the game 54-54 with just under five minutes to play, but TSU went on a 13-6 run to close out the final 4:18 of the contest.

Despite the seven-point loss, three finished the night with double-digit scoring numbers.

Junior Jason Burnell and freshman Cam Martin scored 16 and 11 points, respectively, and set career-high from beyond the arc. Burnell knocked down four 3-balls while Martin pitched in three.

Senior Malcolm Drumwright ended the night with 10 points and a team-best six assists.

For the first time this season, Jacksonville State went to the locker room with a tied score.

The Gamecocks and Tigers were knotted 25-25 at the break following a half that saw the lead change hands seven times.

Of JSU’s 25 points at the half, 14 came from the bench. Burnell shot 100% and knocked down three of his 3-pointers in the period, leading Gamecock scorers with nine points. The 6-foot-7 junior also totaled a half-best four rebounds.

Martin was dominant in the second half, scoring all 11 of his points in the period. The freshman was 4-for-5 shooting, going 3-for-4 from long range, and tallied a half-best four defensive rebounds.

In total, Jacksonville State shot 44.6% and Tennessee State shot 47.9% - nearly eight percent higher than its season average. The Gamecocks won the rebounding battle 33-25.

Jacksonville State 64, Belmont 60 Jan. 6, 2018 - Curb Event Center

Jan. 11, 2018 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team handed preseasonfavorite Belmont just its second ever home Ohio Valley Conference loss Saturday, upending the Bruins 64-60 at Curb Event Center.

Prior to Saturday’s matchup, Belmont was 40-1 in home OVC games, falling last season to Eastern Kentucky. The JSU win is the second in as many meetings with BU, following last year’s semifinals victory in the OVC Championships at Nashville’s Municipal Auditorium.

It’s the Gamecocks’ first win at the Curb Center and just the second all-time road win over Belmont – dating back to Feb. 4, 2002 before the construction of the Bruins’ home court.

“I thought we played really well and were really good defensively,” head coach Ray Harper said. “We forced them to go small late, and they were able to make a run, but we defended well. It’s a really big win for us.”

Senior Malcolm Drumwright led the Gamecocks with 11 points, followed by nine each from freshman Cam Martin and junior Jason Burnell. Burnell also chipped in a career-best seven assists and pulled down a game-high seven rebounds.

The game went to the break tied 25-25 with the Gamecocks’ best lead reaching just seven, but the contest was blown open by the 8:52 mark in the second. Jacksonville State used an 18-5 run over six minutes to take a 17-point advantage.

Martin, who played four scoreless minutes of the first half, was 3-for-4 from the field and 2-for-2 from 3-point range to score all nine of his points in the second half. The ninth was a free throw in the closing minutes of the contest. The Texas native also had two assists.

The Gamecocks’ defense was strong in the first half, holding the Bruins to 36% shooting.

JSU allowed just 10 of 28 shots to fall, and only three were from 3-point range.

Belmont committed 11 turnovers while Jacksonville State totaled five steals. Drumwright picked the pocket of the Bruins twice in the period, and Gregory, Burnell and Dunlap each had one steal.

In total, Jacksonville State shot 50% (27-for-54), while the defense held Belmont to 21-of-59 (35.6%) for the game. The Bruins’ average coming into the game was 47.7% and averaged 11.5 3-pointers per game. Today, Belmont hit just seven from long range on 34 attempts.

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team topped Murray State 76-71 Thursday night at Pete Mathews Coliseum in front of a crowd of 3,004.

The win draws the Gamecocks (13-5, 4-1 OVC) into a five-way tie for first place with Murray State (12-4, 4-1 OVC), Belmont, Tennessee Tech and Austin Peay in the Ohio Valley Conference standings. The victory was just the second over the Racers in program history, bringing the all-time record to 20-2.

“It was a great game, all-around,” head coach Ray Harper said. “Our kids played extremely hard and competed. I thought we were absolutely terrific in the first half. They got a couple of 3-pointers, but we had very few breakdowns in the first half. But I thought they beat us with some 50/50 balls and we weren’t as efficient in the second half.”

Junior Marlon Hunter scored a career-high 21 points, grabbed a career-best seven rebounds and tied his career-high in steals with four. The Memphis, Tenn., native was 9-for12 from the floor and 2-for-2 from long range.

Malcolm Drumwright pocketed 20 points, and Jason Burnell and Christian Cunningham each tallied 12 points. Drumwright accounted for five assists.

The JSU defense was outstanding, forcing 16 turnovers – 10 of which came in the first half.

Along with Hunter’s four steals, Cunningham swatted four shots and had three steals and Jamall Gregory had three blocks. In total, JSU picked 10 passes and blocked eight shots.

Jacksonville State outscored the Racers 43-26 in the first half. The Gamecocks tallied 12 points off the half’s 10 turnovers and outworked MSU 16-8 in the paint.

Murray State got out to a 4-0 lead to start the game, but the Gamecocks hit an 8-0 run after three minutes to take an 11-7 advantage. The defense held MSU to a three-minute scoring drought near the middle of the period, which helped the JSU offense to a 10-point run and 12-point lead. Drumwright scored 13 and Hunter had 12 in the half.

The Gamecocks led by as much as 19 at the 13:54 mark of the second half, but as mentioned by Harper, JSU struggled in the late minutes. The Racers outscored Jacksonville State 45-33 in the closing half.

In the last 1:25, Murray State’s Jonathan Stark hit four 3-pointer to help the Racers to a bring the JSU lead to three with seven seconds to go. The Gamecocks were able to get the ball into the hands of Drumwright on the inbound, forcing the Racers to foul Jacksonville State’s top free-throw shooter. Drumwright hit both freebies to put the game out of reach.

Jacksonville State 58, Morehead State 57

Austin Peay 87, Jacksonville State 67

Jan. 13, 2018 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

Jan. 18, 2018 - Ellis T. Johnson Arena

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team dropped a hard-fought matchup with Austin Peay Saturday evening at Pete Mathews Coliseum. The Governors topped the Gamecocks 87-67 to hand JSU just it’s second Ohio Valley Conference loss of the season.

“We got out-toughed,” head coach Ray Harper said. “They out-toughed us every way possible. They rebounded, grabbed loose balls, had more 50/50 balls and had more energy.

They were the tougher team and deserved to win the game.”

Jacksonville State (13-6, 4-2 OVC) was held to 32.4% shooting, hitting 22-of-68 shots over the contest, while Austin Peay (10-8, 5-1 OVC) was 33-for-54 (61.1%). The Govs won the rebounding battle 40-34, and scored 10 more points in the paint than the home team.

Despite the loss, senior Malcolm Drumwright posted his second consecutive 20-point game, hitting four 3-pointers along the way and going a perfect 6-for-6 from the freethrow line. It was the sixth 20-point of the season for the guard, tying his season-high, and the 16th time in his career he’s scored 20-or-more in a game.

Junior Jason Burnell accounted for 14 of the Gamecocks’ points, shooting 6-for-11 from the floor. He also pitched in two assists, a steal and four boards.

Austin Peay’s Averyl Ugba scored 35 points, hitting 17 of 21 shots taken, and shooter Zach Glotta tallied 20 with four 3-pointers.

Jacksonville State outscored APSU 42-39 in the second half, but it was not enough to overcome a 23-point deficit at the half. The game got off to a promising start with the Gamecocks going up by three at the 17:32 mark, but the Governors would charge back and take a double-digit lead halfway through the period.

The Govs’ lead swelled to 30 six minutes into the second half, prompting a 14-5 Gamecock run to pull within 21, but the two teams traded baskets near-even for the remaining 10 minutes.

MOREHEAD, Ky. – Sophomore Ashton Spears scored a season-high 13 points and knocked down the final two free throws of the game to lead Jacksonville State to a 58-57 victory over Morehead State Thursday at Ellis T. Johnson Arena.

Trailing 57-56 with three seconds remaining, Spears drove to the basket and was fouled.

The sophomore went to the line and hit both free throws, putting the Gamecocks by one.

Morehead State’s Jordan Walker fired up a last-second 3-pointer, but the shot was errant to give JSU its third win in Morehead in as many years.

“Ashton made some plays,” head coach Ray Harper said. “He had a big 3-pointer for us and gave us some screening action. He went and made a great play on the last play of the game to give us the win.”

The nationally-televised game was a whirlwind of lead changes and runs. Both the Gamecocks (14-6, 5-2 OVC) and Eagles (5-13, 1-6 OVC) held leads of nine points, and the lead exchanged hands 15 times.

Junior Jason Burnell set a career-high with 20 points, topping his previous record of 16 scored against Morehead State Dec. 30 in Jacksonville. The DeLand, Fla., native was 8-for-11 and 3-for-6 from long range. Along with Malcolm Drumwright’s back-to-back 20-point performances against Murray State and Austin Peay last week, Burnell extends the Gamecocks’ streak of at least one player scoring 20 points in a game to three.

Fifteen of Burnell’s 20 points came in the first half. The Gamecocks led the Eagles 26-25 at the break with most numbers nearing even between the two squads. JSU outscored MSU 8-6 in the paint and 9-7 off turnovers, but Jacksonville State was out-rebounded 19-14 and out-scored 7-4 on second-chance points.

Jacksonville State jumped out to a 9-point lead to begin the second half, claiming its largest lead of the night at the 16:59 mark. Despite the 34-25 advantage, Morehead State stormed back with a 10-point run to reclaim the lead. The Eagles would then go up by nine, 48-39, with 8:24 remaining in the game.

The Gamecocks chipped away at the Morehead lead, whittling the Eagles’ advantage back to one with a 9-1 run. MSU retained the lead up until the final three seconds when a foul by Lamontray Harris sent Spears to the line for the final two foul shots of the game.

Jacksonville State 68, Eastern Kentucky 60

UT Martin 67, Jacksonville State 63

Jan. 20, 2018 - Alumni Coliseum

Jan. 25, 2018 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

RICHMOND, Ky. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team claimed the program’s first win at Eastern Kentucky’s Alumni Coliseum Saturday night, topping the Colonels 68-60 for the season sweep.

Prior to Saturday’s victory, the Gamecocks (15-6, 6-2 OVC) were 0-13 against EKU (8-13, 2-6 OVC) in Richmond. It’s the second time this season head coach Ray Harper has led JSU to a first on the road, recording the program’s first win at Belmont’s Curb Center on Jan. 6.

“We should have won a game in here last year,” Harper said. “But I thought our guys competed tonight. We’re still a little bit out of sync offensively, but we were great defensively aside from fouls. We have to do a better job of getting away from drivers and putting our hands on guys. We have to be better.”

Malcolm Drumwright posted his third 20-point performance in four games, and extended a streak of at least one Gamecock with 20 points in a contest to four games.

Junior Jason Burnell totaled 15 points, shooting 6-for-14 with a couple of free throws, and senior Norbertas Giga was good for 12 points off the bench. The 7-foot Giga was 4-for-5 from the floor, hit a 3-pointer and was 3-for-5 from the charity stripe.

Jacksonville State took a 31-26 lead into the locker room after the first period, battling back from what had been a half controlled mostly by Eastern Kentucky. The Colonels held the advantage for 11 minutes, trailing the Gamecocks for 6:16.

Drumwright shot 50% in the half, firing up all six of his shots from beyond the arc. The senior led JSU with nine points and three 3-pointers, while Burnell was also 50% from the floor with a second-most eight points in the period.

After leading 7-4, EKU went on an 11-0 run to put the Gamecocks down 15-7 after eight minutes. It wasn’t until the last eight minutes of the half that Jacksonville State scored more than five points in a row.

JSU rallied back from the 8-point deficit with a 16-7 run to go ahead by three, 25-22, with four minutes remaining in the half. Jason Burnell scored eight of JSU’s 16 points during their longest run of the half, helping the Gamecocks to score nine consecutive points.

Despite four stretches of four or more points at a time for EKU, Jacksonville State controlled the second half. The Gamecocks built their lead to as much as 13 halfway through the period and kept a cushion of no less than seven for the remainder of the game.

All 12 of Giga’s points came in the second half. He saw six minutes of action and was 0-for-1 in the first half, but was a perfect 4-for-4 in the last period.

JACKSONVILLE – Malcolm Drumwright’s 22 points were not enough to carry the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team Thursday night, dropping a 67-63 decision to UT Martin at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

For the fifth consecutive game, at least one Gamecocks bucketed 20-or-more points.

Drumwright’s 22 points tonight marks his fourth contest in five in which he has scored 20-or-more, as well.

Despite outscoring the Skyhawks 40-34 in the second half, it wasn’t enough to overcome a 23-point first half. UT Martin’s defense kept JSU to a 21.9 shooting percentage in the first period, hitting seven of 32 shots. Drumwright led the Gamecocks with six first-half points, hitting two of nine attempts.

Jacksonville State began the second half with a 7-4 run, climbing within five points of the UT Martin lead. JSU continued to chip away at the advantage, eventually reclaiming the lead with five minutes remaining in the game. Junior Marlon Hunter picked off a pass, was fouled on a runner, hit the basket and knocked down the free throw to put the Gamecocks up 51-49 – their first lead since the early minutes of the first half.

The lead changed hands six more times before the end of the game, and a loud Pete Mathews crowd was on its feet with less than a minute to go. With 37 seconds remaining in the game, Drumwright stepped back and drilled a go-ahead 3-pointer that put JSU up 63-61. UT Martin immediately called a 30-second timeout, as momentum swung in the Gamecocks’ favor, but the Skyhawks dropped another 3-pointer with 29 seconds to go.

Martin’s Fatodd Lewis hit his only 3-pointer of the night to put the Skyhawks ahead 64-63.

JSU fouled twice in an attempt to regain possession and the advantage, but one of two fouls shot fell for Darius Thompson and Terrence Parker hit both is his free throws to put the game out of reach.

Of the 12 Gamecocks to see playing time, 10 put points on the board. Jason Burnell was JSU’s second leading scorer with seven points, while Ashton Spears, Jamall Gregory and Norbertas Giga each tallied six.

Jacksonville State won the rebounding battle 48-32. Giga led on the boards with 12, and Burnell pulled down a career-high 10 rebounds.

JACKSONVILLE – Marlon Hunter scored a career-high 22 points and Christian Cunningham recorded his team-leading sixth double-double of the season en route to a 78-60 win over Southeast Missouri at Pete Mathews Coliseum on Saturday.

Hunter’s 22 points eclipsed his previous high of 21, scored Jan. 11 against Murray State at home. For the sixth consecutive game, at least one Gamecock has scored 20 or more points in a contest. Meanwhile, Cunningham tallied 10 points and 15 rebounds for his team-best 13th double-double of his career.

Along with Hunter’s 22 points and Cunningham’s 10, a total of five Gamecocks scored in double-digits. Jamall Gregory bucketed 12, and Jason Burnell and Malcolm Drumwright each posted 11. It’s the first time since Dec. 16 that five JSU scorers tallied double-figures against USC Upstate, bringing an end to an 11-game drought.

The Jacksonville State defense held the Redhawks (10-13, 4-6 OVC) to nearly 15 points below their scoring average (75.8), keeping SEMO to a 38.3 shooting percentage for the game. JSU forced 17 turnovers and out-rebounded the visitors from Cape Girardeau, Mo., 39-26.

The Gamecocks (16-7, 7-3 OVC) totaled 39 points in each of the game’s two halves.

Cunningham nearly claimed his double-double in one half, tallying nine points and nine rebounds in the first half alone. His nine points led JSU scorers in the period, followed by eight points each from Gregory and Hunter.

Cunningham entered the game with 527 career boards. His 15 rebounds, pulling his career mark to 542, passed Amadou Mbodji (528) for third on the school’s Division I career rebounding list. Second place is Rusty Brand (543) and first is Nick Murphy (679).

Southeast Missouri held an advantage for just over three minutes the entire game, leading by as much as three points at the 12:29 mark in the opening half. That lead quickly fizzled as JSU jumped ahead two minutes later on a 7-0 run to take a permanent lead.

The Gamecocks led by as much as 14 with 30 seconds to go in the half before a couple of SEMO free throws cut it to 12.

Despite allowing five more points in the second half than the first, the Gamecocks outscored the Redhawks 39-33 to keep the game out of reach. Jacksonville State was 14-for-29 shooting in the second half and kept SEMO to 10-for-24 in the period.

CHARLESTON, Ill. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team used a second-half surge to earn a runaway 75-56 win over Eastern Illinois on Thursday at Lantz Arena.

Junior Christian Cunningham tallied his second double-double in as many games with 12 points and 10 rebounds, while fellow junior Jason Burnell scored 11 of his team-high 17 points in the second half to secure the 19-point win.

Cunningham’s double-double was his seventh of the season and 14th of his career – both team-bests among active Gamecocks.

Jacksonville State outscored EIU 44-27 in the second half and scored the half’s first 11 consecutive points. JSU led by three at the half, but six consecutive points from Cunningham to begin the period helped push the Gamecocks’ lead to eight.

The JSU defense limited the Panthers to 19-for-51 overall, a 37.3 shooting percentage, while the Gamecocks shot 50.8% for the game. Jacksonville State, led by Cunningham’s 10 boards, outrebounded Eastern Illinois 37-30, while the defense forced 14 Panther turnovers.

Despite scoring the game’s first four points, the Gamecocks hit a scoring drought and saw the Panthers go on a 12-0, three-minute run. JSU trailed by as much as 10 at the 11:40 mark, down 18-8 nearly halfway through the first period, but the tides began turning just one minute later.

Following EIU’s 12-point run, the JSU defense tightened up and allowed just four field goals for the remainder of the half. From the 10:51 mark until the end of the half, Jacksonville State outscored the Panthers 21-11.

During the Gamecocks’ near 11-minute, 21-11 run, Burnell totaled a team-best six points and Malcolm Drumwright tallied five. The offense was 8-for-13 during the stretch, while the defense came away with two steals and forced five EIU turnovers, helping Jacksonville State to a 31-29 advantage at the half.

Feb. 3, 2018 - Valdalabene Center

Feb. 8, 2018 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. – A rally before the half and 37 second-period points were not enough to lift the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team over SIU Edwardsville on Saturday afternoon, falling 75-67 at the Vadalabene Center.

Despite struggling to score early on, four Gamecocks ended the afternoon with doublefigure point totals. Junior Jason Burnell recorded his first career double-double, totaling 10 points and 12 rebounds, while Jamall Gregory led all JSU scorers with 14 points and four assists. Norbertas Giga and Malcolm Drumwright had 12 and 11 points, respectively.

The Gamecocks got off to a slow start and found themselves in a 17-point hole after 15 minutes of play. Jacksonville State trailed 33-16 at the 5:37 mark and was shooting just 30% prior to the under-8 media timeout.

JSU began to right the ship within the final five minutes of the first half, hitting a 14-5 run to cut the deficit to eight, 38-30, at the break. Cam Martin pitched in five points during the run, followed by four from Jamall Gregory. During the stretch, the Gamecocks improved their half’s shooting percentage to an even 50%, ending the period 11-for-22 from the floor. Gregory and Martin each tallied seven points in the half.

Averaging nearly two points per minute in the first half, the Jacksonville State defense allowed just five points in the final five minutes. The Cougars began the half shooting 50% and were out-rebounding the Gamecocks 9-4 at the halfway mark, but the JSU defense allowed just two field goals in the last five minutes. Jacksonville State out-rebounded SIUE 9-7 for the final 12 minutes of the period.

Jacksonville State came within three points of tying the contest in the second half, but SIUE kept the pedal down and outscored the Gamecocks 38-37 to close out the game. A Cunningham layup put JSU within five, 64-59, with four minutes left, but an SIUE basket and 3-pointer extended the advantage back to 10 with 1:30 remaining.

The Cougars were led by David McFarland who scored 15 points and was 6-for-11 shooting. He knocked down a team-high three 3-pointers. Keenan Simmons tallied 14 points and Jalen Henry had 13.

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team overcame a slow start to top Tennessee Tech 82-65 Thursday night at Pete Mathews Coliseum. Junior Jason Burnell scored a career-high 22 points and snagged a career-high 12 rebounds en route to his second consecutive double-double.

The Gamecocks (18-8, 9-4 OVC) showed out on ESPNU, turning in their highest-scoring game in conference play this season. JSU’s 82 points against the Golden Eagles (16-10, 8-5 OVC) were the most scored since putting up 89 against Samford on Dec. 3 at The Pete.

The game did not start with as much promise as the 17-point victory would seem as Jacksonville State found itself in a quick 10-0 hole after three minutes of play. TTU’s Curtis Phillips and Shaq Calhoun each hit a couple of 3-pointers that helped put the Gamecocks down by 13 points – JSU’s largest deficit of the night.

Trailing 15-5 at the first media timeout, the Gamecock offense hit another gear and went on to outscore TTU 25-12 for the remainder of the first half. Christian Cunningham’s lone two points Thursday came on a posterizing dunk that permanently swung the momentum Jacksonville State’s way amidst a 6-0 run to pull within seven of the TTU lead.

Following the Cunningham jam at 13:01, the Gamecocks went on the attack. All 10 of Burnell’s first half points came in the final 11 minutes of the period, and junior Marlon Hunter scored a half-best 13. Hunter was 5-for-8 from the floor with a 3-pointer, while Burnell was 4-for-7 with a 3-ball, as well.

Tennessee Tech responded in the second half with 38 points after trailing by 13 at the break, but Jacksonville State continued to pile on points with two more points in the second period than the first with 42. Burnell completed his second career double-double with 12 points and eight rebounds in the second, and junior Jamall Gregory tallied all 12 of his night’s points in the half.

Senior Malcolm Drumwright managed four points and led the Gamecocks with five assists while making his 94tth career start in a JSU uniform. The start ties former Gamecock Brian Williams (2010-14) for the most career Division I starts in program history. Drumwright will become the all-time DI leader with a start Saturday.

Tennessee State 65, Jacksonville State 47

Jacksonville State 60, Murray State 68

JACKSONVILLE – Senior Malcolm Drumwright posted 19 points and recorded a recordbreaking start against Tennessee State on Satuday, but was not enough to overcome the hot-shooting Tigers, falling 65-47 at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

Drumwright was 6-for-8 from the floor and 4-for-6 from long range to lead JSU scorers, and became the program’s all-time, Division I starts leader with his 95th nod tonight. He surpassed former Gamecock Brian Williams (2010-14) who held the previous record with 94.

Aside from Drumwright’s 19 points, the Gamecock offense was held to its second-lowest shooting percentage of the season. JSU (18-9, 9-5 OVC) shot 34% (16-for-47) and totaled less than 30 points in each half. Junior Christian Cunningham bucketed the second-most points with eight, while fellow junior Jason Burnell had seven.

“Tennessee State did a great job,” head coach Ray Harper said. “They cut hard and defended us really well. But at some point you have to finish some plays, and we didn’t do it tonight.”

The Tigers (14-11, 9-5 OVC) outscored the Gamecocks 22-18 in the paint and had three score in double digits. Ken’Darrius Hamilton and Delano Spencer each tallied 15 points, while Kamar McKnight pitched in 11. TSU shot an even 50% and was 6-for-17 from 3-point range.

Jacksonville State jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead on a Drumwright 3-pointer to begin the game, and held an advantage for 2:25, but the lead diminished at the 15:38 mark when TSU’s Hamilton hit the first of his four 3-pointer to tie the game at 5-5. From that point on, Jacksonville State would only come within one point of seeing it tied a second time.

The loss dropped the Gamecocks to a 9-5 league record, putting them in a tie with the Tigers for fourth place in the OVC.

MURRAY, Ky. – A late Murray State rally handed the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team a 68-60 loss at the CFSB Center on Thursday night.

Despite 15 points from Marlon Hunter and 12 points from Christian Cunningham, Murray State’s Jonathan Stark amassed 32 points and proved to be the difference in the game down the stretch.

JSU rebounded from a slow first-half start, turning the ball over eight times and managing just 23 points, to scoring 37 points in the second half with just four turnovers.

“We competed tonight, but we had too many turnovers in the first half,” head coach Ray Harper said. “We did a good job in the second half of taking care of the ball, but Murray State is a good basketball team. They don’t lose much here, and we had a great opportunity to take one tonight.”

The Gamecocks held Murray State to 29 first-half points. It was the second-lowest first-half point total by the Racers this season, and second only to the 26 points they were limited to on Jan. 11 in their first meeting with Jacksonville State.

Defense ruled in the first as both teams were held to under 40 percent shooting.

Jacksonville State was 9-for-28 from the floor and Murray State was slightly better at 11-for28. JSU totaled five blocks in the period, led by three from Christian Cunningham, while the Racers picked up five steals.

The Gamecock offense clicked in the second half and stormed back to take a 45-43 lead late in the contest. Beginning at the 12:56 mark, JSU went on a 12-1 run that lasted nearly five minutes, which included an 8-0 span, that saw Hunter score four points and the Gamecocks erase an 11-point deficit.

The Jacksonville State advantage did not last long, however, as Murray State responded with a big run of its own. The Racers’ Stark scored 10 points in the first and had been held to just three points before the Gamecocks took their two-point lead. After that, the guard went off for 22 points and was responsible for 11 consecutive points to put MSU back in front for good.

“Stark took some tough shots and made them,” Harper said. “We battled and took a twopoint lead,but you have to give him credit. He made some big-time shots.”

Jacksonville State 57, Austin Peay 60

Belmont 67, Jacksonville State 78

Feb. 17, 2018 - Dunn Center

Feb. 22, 2018 - Pete Mathews Coliseum

CLARKSVILLE – Freshman Cam Martin scored a career-high 18 points Saturday, but it was not enough to lift the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team over Austin Peay. The Govs topped the Gamecocks 60-57 despite a strong second-half JSU showing.

Led by Martin’s 18, three Gamecocks (18-11, 9-7 OVC) scored in double figures at the Winfield Dunn Center. The freshman was 5-for-8, hitting a 3-pointer and going 7-for-10 from the free-throw line, while Jamall Gregory and Malcom Drumwright each collected 10 points.

Jacksonville State fought back from a 15-point hole to go to the locker room trailing 31-21.

Austin Peay (16-12, 11-5 OVC) got on the board first and held the lead for the entire first period, building a 19-4 advantage by the 8:27 mark.

Martin helped cut the lead down to eight, scoring nine first-half points. Martin began the game with a couple of free throws and added two more to make a dent in the APSU lead.

Following a Cunningham layup, the freshman knocked down a 3-pointer and hit a layup to pull the Govs’ lead to eight, 21-13, at 6:11. A last-second 3-pointer from Austin Peay’s Tre’ Ivory stretched the lead back to 10 just before the break.

After being out-scored by 10 in the first half, Jacksonville State rallied to out-work the Govs 36-29 in the second half. Five minutes into the second, the Gamecocks tied the game and took a three-point advantage on a Drumwright 3-pointer two minutes later, but it would only last one minute as Austin Peay answered with back-to-back baskets to reclaim the advantage.

“We were 2-for-8 from the free-throw line in the last four minutes,” head coach Ray Harper said. “You can’t miss free throws and turn the ball over and win games this time of year. I thought we competed and did some things to get ourselves back in the game. We executed some plays late and got some good looks, but we didn’t convert at the free-throw line and turned the ball over.”

The Gamecocks were 6-for-12 from the charity stripe in the closing half, while Austin Peay was 14-for-20. Nine of Jacksonville State’s 14 turnovers came in the last period.

JACKSONVILLE – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team claimed its third consecutive victory over Belmont University on Thursday, downing the Bruins 78-67 on ESPNU at Pete Mathews Coliseum.

The win forces a scenario in which the Gamecocks can enter the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament in Evansville, Ind., as the No. 4 seed with a first-round bye, but help will be needed to achieve the higher seeding. Belmont must defeat Tennessee State in its game Saturday night at the Curb Event Center, while Jacksonville State must win on the road Saturday against Tennessee Tech.

Senior Malcolm Drumwright bucketed 11 points to surpass former Gamecock Darion Rackley (2011-15) for second all-time among Jacksonville State’s Division I scoring leaders with 1,348 career points. His final basket, a 3-pointer with 48 seconds remaining in the game, served as the dagger that put the game out of Belmont’s reach.

Drumwright’s nine assists led the Gamecocks in the category as the team totaled 25 helpers. It’s the highest assists total since collecting 25 against Savannah State on Nov. 20 in Chattanooga, Tenn.

JSU went to the half break leading by a narrow two-point margin, 37-35. Junior Marlon Hunter, who went on to lead the Gamecocks in scoring with 21 points, put up eight firsthalf points. Junior Jamall Gregory led the JSU scoring effort in the first with 10 points off the bench, helping Jax State to out-work the Bruins 22-2 in bench points for the period.

Belmont tied the game after three minutes of play in the second and built a three-point lead by the 12:55 mark, but a timely 30-second timeout from Coach Harper halted the Bruins’ momentum and swayed it in the Gamecocks’ favor. Following the timeout, JSU went on an 8-0 run to take a five-point, 52-57, lead halfway through the period.

Jacksonville State stretched its lead to double digits and did not allow the Bruins within less than five points until the 1:24 mark. Belmont’s Dylan Windler hit a couple of free throws to pull the JSU advantage down to 69-65, but it was as close as the Bruins got to seeing another lead change. With 48 seconds remaining in the contest, Drumwright drained a 3-pointer to push the Jax State lead to eight, 75-67, all but securing the Gamecocks’ third win in five games in the past two seasons against the rivals from Nashville.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team topped Tennessee Tech 66-57 on Saturday to claim its second consecutive 20-win season and secure the No. 4 seed in the upcoming Ohio Valley Conference Championships.

The Gamecocks (20-11, 11-7 OVC) are set to play Thursday, March 1 at 6:30 p.m. in Evansville, Ind., and will face the winner of Game 1 between No. 5-seeded Tennessee Tech and No. 8-seeded SIUE. Marlon Hunter led a foursome of Gamecocks to score in double figures at The Hoop on Saturday. The junior totaled 14 points, followed by 12 points from Jason Burnell and 11 points from Norbertas Giga.

Christian Cunningham was the fourth JSU player to register double digits en route to his team-leading eighth double-double of the season. The junior bucketed 10 points and grabbed 13 rebounds.

Six Gamecocks contributed to a 26-point first half, led by seven points from Giga. The big man pulled down a half-best six rebounds – five on the defensive end – was 5-for-6 from the free-throw line and swatted one would-be Tennessee Tech basket.

JSU took care of the basketball in the first period, turning the ball over just five times, and forced six TTU turnovers. The Gamecocks managed six points off turnovers while holding the Golden Eagles to two points on TOs. Jacksonville State led 26-19 at the half and did not relinquish the lead the entire second half. The Golden Eagles managed to pull within three points of the JSU lead with the help of a 7-0 run halfway through the period, but the JSU defense responded by holding TTU to no field goals for the next five minutes of play. During the stretch, the Gamecocks outscored Tennessee Tech 8-4 to regain the cushion.

Saturday’s win locked up the Gamecocks’ first back-to-back 20-wins seasons at the Division I level in program history. The last head coach to lead JSU to consecutive 20-win campaigns was hall-of-famer Bill Jones in 1990-91 and 1991-92.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team topped Tennessee Tech for the third time this season, defeating the Golden Eagles 73-70 in the quarterfinals of the Ohio Valley Conference Championships at Evansville’s Ford Center.

The Gamecocks’ earned their second all-time OVC Tournament quarterfinals win to move into the semifinals for the second year in a row. The win sets up a 7 p.m. matchup with Murray State on Friday on ESPNU. Jacksonville State is 0-1 all-time in postseason play against the Racers, falling 69-60 in 2016.

Four Gamecocks finished with double-digit points scored, led by 18-point performances

by Marlon Hunter and Jamall Gregory. Senior Norbertas Giga finished with 15 points, picking up all 15 in the second half, while Malcolm Drumwright totaled 10.

Jacksonville State shot nearly 12 percent better than Tennessee Tech in the first half, earning 26 points on field goals as opposed to the Golden Eagles’ 16, but foul trouble led a tight two-point lead at the half. TTU shot 15 free throws in the first period and hit 12, while JSU made just three trips to the charity stripe for two points.

Twelve of Hunter’s 18 points came in the first half. The junior was 5-for-8 from the field, knocked down two of JSU’s four free throws and picked up a team-best six rebounds before the break. Jacksonville State went to the half with a 30-28 advantage.

Following a scoreless first half, Giga came alive in the second and led JSU scorers with 15 points. He only took two shots in the first period but came out of his shell with nine shots in the second. He was 7-for-9 from the field and 1-for-2 from long range to help the Gamecocks to their three-point victory.

Tennessee Tech made it interesting in the dwindling seconds of the contest, pulling within two points of the JSU lead, 72-70, on a Kajon Mack basket with two seconds remaining.

Drumwright was fouled immediately after the basket and was sent to the line for two shots. The senior missed the first shot but bucketed the second to push the lead to three.

Despite a last-second, three-quarters court shot from TTU as time expired, the shot fell short of the rim to secure the victory for the Gamecocks.

The Gamecocks are now 6-4 all-time in OVC Tournament action. Including last season’s three wins at Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, Tenn., JSU is riding a four-game winning streak in conference postseason play.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Despite a second-half rally that erased a 20-point deficit, the Jacksonville State men’s basketball team suffered a 70-63 defeat to Murray State in the semifinals of the Ohio Valley Conference Championships on Friday, ending the Gamecocks’ hopes of a second consecutive league title.

The regular-season champion Racers (25-5) relied on a 22-point performance from OVC Player of the Year Jonathan Stark and the hot hand of Terrell Miller to outlast the Gamecocks (21-12) late in the dwindling minutes of the contest.

Miller registered a double-double within the first four minutes of the game, totaling 11 points and 10 rebounds in the first half alone. He was 4-for-4 from the field with three 3-pointers, but the Gamecocks managed to keep pace with the help of junior Christian Cunningham.

Cunningham led Jacksonville State with 10 first-half points and two steals to keep the Racers within striking distance at the end of the opening period. JSU went to the locker room down 37-25 after climbing back from a 15-point disadvantage.

Despite falling into a 20-point deficit at the 14-minute mark of the second half, the Gamecocks mounted a miraculous comeback that saw Jacksonville State take its first lead since the first basket of the game.

Trailing 51-31 with 13:48 remaining in the game, JSU outscored Murray State 29-9 over the next nine minutes to tie the game 60-all with less than five minutes to play. Jamall Gregory scored nine points during the stretch, followed by six from Jason Burnell and six from Cunningham. Following a couple of good Murray free throws, Marlon Hunter gave the Gamecocks a one-point lead with a bucket and and-one foul shot, 63-62.

The Jacksonville State lead was short-lived however as Stark answered the rally with a 3-pointer and back-to-back successful free throws to put the Racers ahead by a nose. Up by four after the Stark shots from the charity stripe, Shaq Buchanan put the game out of reach with another 3-ball and a free throw.

Cunningham ended the night with 16 points, while Gregory totaled a second-best 15 and Hunter finished with 13.

BUFFALO, N.Y. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team downed Canisius 80-78 in overtime Wednesday night to earn a first-round victory in the CBI Tournament.

The Gamecocks (22-12) added another win to their historic year and claimed their first postseason national tournament victory of the Division I era, while seniors Norbertas Giga and Malcolm Drumwright helped kept the Gamecocks’ postseason championship hopes alive with big offensive showings against the Golden Griffins. Drumwright picked up his ninth 20-point performance of the season and Giga pitched in a double-double with 17 points and 11 rebounds.

Jacksonville State led Canisius (21-12) by three points with seven seconds remaining in regulation. Giga, who was 5-for-5 from the free-throw line, knocked down a couple of freebies to give JSU its 71-68 padding. The Golden Griffins brought the ball down the court and Isaiah Reese threw up a last-second three-pointer that banked in to send the game to overtime.

The Griffs carried the momentum into the five-minute period, scoring the first four points of overtime. Four consecutive Gamecock free throws, two by Jason Burnell and two by Drumwright, tied the game 75-75 with three minutes to go, but JSU did not regain the lead until 34 seconds were left in the contest. Marlon Hunter hit a layup to give Jacksonville State a one-point lead and another Burnell free throw made it a two-point game. With one second left, Canisius put up a game-deciding three-pointer, but it missed to the right to give the Gamecocks the win.

Despite being outscored 38-34 in the second, Jacksonville State controlled the game 37-33 at the half. Drumwright led the Gamecocks with 10 points in the first half, going 3-for-7 from the field with two three-pointers and two free throws. Following a six-point second half, the senior scored four of JSU’s nine OT pointson a layup and two free throws.

Giga kept the Gamecocks in the game late, hitting four of his five free throws with less than 16 seconds to go in the game. He put up six points and grabbed six rebounds in the first half before leading JSU with 11 second-half points.

Jacksonville State 80, Central Arkansas 59

Jacksonville State 68, North Texas 90

CONWAY, Ark. – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team advanced to the semifinals of the College Basketball Invitational with an 80-59 win over Central Arkansas on Monday.

Sophomore Jacara Cross led the Gamecocks (23-12) to the 21-point victory with his first career double-double. The forward stepped up and scored 13 points with 13 rebounds in a season-high 18 minutes of play.

Jacksonville State shot 45 percent over the course of the game, posting its best average since hitting 55.6 percent of its shots in the second round of the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament against Tennessee Tech on March 1. Junior Marlon Hunter was 7-for-12 and was 3-for-4 from beyond the arc for 13 points.

The Gamecocks got out to a quick 8-0 lead, holding Central Arkansas (18-17) scoreless for nearly the first minutes of the game. It wasn’t until the 15:09 mark of the first half that the Bears got on the board, going 0-for-9 prior to a layup by DeAndre Jones.

Minus the first nine missed shots, the Bears went on to shoot 54 percent, but JSU runs of nine, four and four kept the Gamecocks’ lead to more than five points for the majority of the period. After reaching a half-best lead of 14, JSU went to the break with a 12-point, 42-30 advantage. Malcolm Drumwright scored 12 of his 17 points in the first half alone.

The first few minutes of the second half didn’t favor the Gamecocks, however, as mentioned by Harper. Within the first two minutes of the final period, UCA went on a 7-2 run to shorten JSU’s lead to seven. Norbertas Giga scored the only two points during the run, while Central Arkansas was 3-for-3 from the field and forced a turnover to momentarily gain momentum.

Following a Jacksonville State timeout to halt the run, the Gamecocks found their groove and picked up where they left off at the end of the first half. Cross led a 9-1 run over the next five minutes with four points to push the Gamecocks’ lead back to 15. The Bears coughed up the ball twice during the stretch and was 0-for-2 from the floor.

Through the final 10 minutes of the game, JSU outscored the Bears 24-13. Hunter scored a team-best 13 points during the stretch to put Central Arkansas away and secure the Gamecocks’ 23rd win of the season.

DENTON, Texas – The Jacksonville State men’s basketball team’s run in the College Basketball Invitational came to an end Wednesday night with a 90-68 loss to North Texas.

Seniors Malcolm Drumwright and Norbertas Giga each tallied double-digits in their final game as Gamecocks. Drumwright picked up his 20th 20-point game of his career, tallying 23, while Giga scored 15. Fellow senior Des Curry earned four points.

Despite strong offensive showings, including 17 points from Jason Burnell, North Texas (1817) outscored the Gamecocks (23-13) by 22 with the help of a 61.5 percent shooting night with 14 three-pointers.

“We looked like a team that’s been on the road for some time,” head coach Ray Harper said. “We were limited with our depth and we weren’t there defensively, but we didn’t quit.

We didn’t stop playing and that is a credit to those guys. It’s going to be kind of nice to get home with everything that has gone on.”

North Texas shot a ridiculous 70 percent in the first half, dropping 21 of 30 shots. Jorden Duffy was 5-for-6 from the field and was 5-for-5 from long range for 15 first-half points. UNT hit 10 of its 14 shot from beyond the arc and was a perfect 5-for-5 from the free throw line in the opening period.

Trailing 57-29 at halftime, Jacksonville State showed signs of life and outscored the Mean Green 39-33 in the second half. The Gamecocks improved on their 9-for-28 first-half shooting with 12 buckets on 29 shots in the second half for 41.4 percent. Burnell got 15 of his 17 points in the second, hitting four field goals and going 7-for-8 from the free-throw line.

Meanwhile, UNT shot an even 50 percent in the second half, cooling off slightly from the first, with 11 makes on 22 attempts. The JSU defense earned 18 points off turnovers in the period, as opposed to the three points off TOs in the first. Of North Texas’ 15 turnovers, 10 came in the closing period.

Jacksonville State ends its season with 23 wins, representing the new mark for most wins in a single season by a D1-era JSU team. The Gamecocks also won two games in the CBI, recording the first postseason national tournament victories since joining the Division I ranks in 1995.

Beth DeBauche Commissioner

black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961 Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans.

After Title IX legislation passed in 1972, women’s athletics began a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC began formulating plans for women’s athletics in 1975 and established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. The conference added women’s golf and softball in 1994 and women’s soccer in 1998.

Through the past 69 years, 15 teams have won or shared the league’s football title. The list is led by Eastern Kentucky, winner of 21 outright or shared football crowns, which is tied for the most in Football Championship Subdivision history (with Massachusetts). Among OVC teams, former member Middle Tennessee is next with 11 titles, followed by Tennessee Tech with 10, and Murray State and former member Western Kentucky with eight apiece. Eastern Illinois has claimed seven football crowns and Jacksonville State has six, while Morehead State, Tennessee State and former members Evansville and East Tennessee State have captured two apiece. Austin Peay, Southeast Missouri, UT Martin and former member Youngstown State have one title apiece.

THE OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE

Now in its 70th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference.

In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gave the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008.

Subsequently, the league has shown its stability over the past decade, seeing only one member institution depart over the past 17 years.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences.

The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles “Turkey” Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged February 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958 Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second

For the second-straight year the Ohio Valley Conference Men’s and Women’s Basketball Championships will be held at the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana.

The Ford Center, which opened in 2011, is a 11,000-seat arena located in the core of Evansville’s downtown district. The 290,000-square foot facility serves as home of the University of Evansville’s men’s basketball team as well as the Evansville Thunderbolts of the Southern Professional Hockey League and the Indiana Freebirds of the National Gridiron League (NGL). The Ford Center also serves as host to numerous sporting events and concerts on an annual basis.

For the ninth year in a row all eight men’s and all eight women’s teams that qualify for the tournament field gather at a single site for the entire tournament (instead of first round games being played on campus sites).

In 2011 the bracket shifted from a traditional 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc. format to a merit-based format that rewards the top teams during the regular season with byes into the quarterfinals and semifinals. The first round of the men’s tournament will feature the No. 5 seed against the No. 8 seed and the No. 6 seed against the No. 7 seed. The winners of those games will advance to the quarterfinals to face the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds (who received a bye). The winners of those quarterfinal matchups will advance to the semifinals to face the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds (who received a pair of byes).

The women’s tournament changed formats in 2015, doing away with the meritbased format; the women’s teams now play in a traditional 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc. bracket.

The 2019 Championship marks the 56th time the men’s event has been held, making it the fourth oldest Division I championship in the country (behind only the Southern, ACC and SEC).

Future OVC Basketball Tournament dates are March 4-7, 2020.

Last season Murray State topped Belmont in the Championship game to win its OVC record 16th championship.

Near Atlanta, Near Birmingham, Near Perfect!

Tucked into the rolling foothills of the Appalachian mountain range in Northeast Alabama, Calhoun County is a growing business center, yet still evokes an atmosphere of small-town America. We are a tranquil community with a fabulous climate of four distinctive seasons, full bloom summers, and brilliantly colored falls. In every direction there are tree-covered mountains, deep canyons, lush valleys, and underground springs. And yet, if you begin to yearn for big city life, we are only 60 miles from Birmingham, and 90 miles from Atlanta.

A surprising variety of experiences await you in Calhoun County. The climate here allows for year round golf, tennis, hiking, or any activity you may enjoy in the great outdoors.

Although our slogan reads, near Atlanta…near Birmingham…near Perfect, our citizens will tell you that the commitment to caring for others combined with a strong work ethic and community spirit makes “Calhoun County… the perfect” place to live.
