Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics at Lincoln University shall be to provide National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) Division II programs for men and women that are equally characterized by excellence. The primary philosophy of the Department of Athletics is that our staff and program develop and hold the concept of the student-athlete at the highest level of significance. This important standard must be encouraged and supported and never compromised, thus emphasizing to the student-athlete the importance of not only obtaining a degree, but also in reaching full academic and athletic potential. The Intercollegiate Athletic program shall reflect due regard for the athletic traditions of Lincoln University, as well as future promise. The program shall fall within Lincoln’s abilities to provide appropriate facilities, along with the location, allows Lincoln to schedule conveniently and competitively and fall within financial capabilities of Lincoln University to fund adequately. The goal of the Department of Athletics is consistent with the core mission of the university: to provide excellent educational opportunities for a diverse student population. Our student-athletes will be viewed as students first, and only then as athletes. The department will focus on producing graduates who are successful, well-rounded and prepared to make positive contributions to society. Academic achievement in the classroom, together with the development of character, individual and team skills, the will to win and a sense of fair play and sportsmanship in athletic competition determines distinction in intercollegiate athletics programs. Such distinction is a source of pride and enthusiasm for Lincoln University, among its constituent groups including students, faculty and staff, alumni, community and friends at all levels of interest. The Department of Athletics will strive to be a leader in areas of ethics, non-discrimination, diversity and authentic fiscal integrity throughout the Lincoln University campus, the state of Missouri and the country. At the same time, student-athletes must be given the greatest opportunity possible to strive for the highest athletic standards through the best preparation, motivation and support.

Jason Gym, Home of the Blue Tigers Jason Hall was originally built in 1958. Over the years, an addition was made to the front of the building, along with several other minor renovations. The first phase of the Jason Hall renovation took place with an installation of a new HVAC system, a new basketball court and bleacher system. In 2008, the second phase addressed safety issues within the building, such as updating the sprinkler system. The Physical Education department received a new office complex, complete with private offices and a conference room. New audio/visual equipment was also installed in the PE classrooms. The coaches' offices were also renovated to allow for more privacy. The locker rooms were completely redone and a new weight room with state-of-the-art equipment was constructed. The restrooms, ticket booth and concessions area were also remodeled. Finally, a new Daktronics scoreboard was installed in the gym to allow fans the chance to see up to the second player points and other stats.

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY 2015-16 WOMEN'S BAKSETBALL MEDIA GUIDE
After engineering the MIAA’s biggest turn-around last season, Nicole Collier enters her fourth season as the head coach of the Lincoln women’s basketball team in 2015-16. In 2014-15, Collier led the Blue Tigers to a seven-win improvement, taking a program that won two games the year before into the MIAA Women’s Basketball Championship. Lincoln went 12-14 last year with four of those losses coming in the game’s final minute. Three Blue Tigers earned All-MIAA honors as Lincoln made its third postseason appearance in the past four years. Lincoln also did very well in the classroom, with 10 Blue Tigers earning a spot on the MIAA Academic Honor Roll. In her first year on the job, Collier led the team to 11 wins and its second-consecutive berth in the MIAA Women’s Basketball Championship tournament. The season was highlighted by an appearance on the MIAA Network, where Lincoln defeated a Northeastern State team that was receiving votes in the national coaches poll, 54-49. The RiverHawks averaged the fewest turnovers per game in NCAA Division II entering that game, but Collier’s squad forced 25 takeaways with 17 steals.

The Collier File - Name: Nicole Collier - Coaching Experience Head Coach Lincoln (2012-Present) Assistant Coach Lincoln (2009-2012) Central Missouri (2004-2009)
Under Collier’s guidance, six Blue Tigers have earned All-MIAA recognition, including third team selection Arriana Walker, who became the first Lincoln player to lead the conference in steals in back-to-back seasons. The others are Freddie Sims, Jennifer Rosado, Kate Frazier, Hunter Yoakum and Kelsey Williams, who was also the recipient of one of the MIAA’s Scholar Athlete Awards. The team’s success in 2014-15 led to Collier being named the assistant coach of the USA Sports Events Division II Select Team, which will play a series of games in Rio de Janiero, Brazil in August. Two of Collier’s players, Williams and Yoakum, were also invited to play on that all-star team. Collier spent three seasons as Lincoln’s assistant coach before being elevated to the head coaching position beginning in 2012-13. Over the past four years, Collier has helped Lincoln transition from playing in the Heartland Conference to playing in the MIAA. After posting a 2-24 overall record, including a 1-21 league mark, in the Blue Tigers’ first season back in the MIAA (2010-11), Collier helped guide Lincoln to 15-13 mark last season and an 83-77 win over No. 12 Pittsburg State in the first round of the conference tournament. The 15 wins tied for the second-most in program history. Additionally, Lincoln won eight MIAA games, the most league wins in a season ever by a Blue Tiger team.

With Collier as an assistant coach, the Blue Tigers posted 12 or more wins twice in three years. In 2011-12, Lincoln defeated two nationally-ranked teams, including beating Pittsburg State for the first postseason win in program history. A vital part of Lincoln’s recruiting process, Collier has helped develop a team that was an eight-point loss away (to Emporia State, 68-60) from playing for a berth in the NCAA tournament in the MIAA Championship game. Two of the players coached by Collier earned All-MIAA honors following the 2011-12 campaign, including Vivian Essuon, who was the only playing in the league to finish in the top five in both scoring and rebounding. Essuon was an All-MIAA First Team honoree while Arriana Walker earned All-Defensive Team and Honorable Mention awards. Before joining the Blue Tigers in 2009, Collier served as an assistant coach with Central Missouri from 2004-2009. At UCM, working with head coach Dave Slifer, Collier helped lead the Jennies to two NCAA Regional appearances and five-straight seasons of 14 or more victories. The Jennies defeated five nationally ranked opponents in that span and made the MIAA tournament field each season. In addition to serving as an assistant at Central Missouri and Lincoln, Collier spent two seasons playing at Missouri Western before graduating in 2003. She was an all-region and all-conference player with the Griffons, ultimately leading Missouri Western a No. 1 national ranking during each season. During the 2001-02 season, she led MWSU to an MIAA title and for 2002-03 she served as a team captain. In October of 2015, Collier was inducted into the MWSU Athletics Hall of Fame. Prior to transferring to Missouri Western, Collier began her collegiate career playing at Jefferson College where, as a freshman, she led the program to its first-ever berth in the National Junior College Athletic Association tournament. Collier also led the team back to the tournament as a sophomore, guiding Jefferson to a third-place finish. Collier was a two-time All-American at Jefferson and, in 2009, was the first athlete inducted into the Jefferson College Hall of Fame. Collier has an undergraduate degree in physical education and a master’s in exercise science and sport administration. She and her husband, Terry, currently reside in Holts Summit with their daughter, Reese.

Alex Wiggs begins his third season as Lincoln’s assistant women’s basketball coach in 2015-16. In 2014-15, Wiggs helped engineer one of the biggest turnarounds in the MIAA, taking a team that had only won two conference games the year before back into the postseason. The Blue Tigers went 12-14 that season, with four of those losses coming in the game’s final minute, and qualified for the MIAA Women’s Basketball Championship tournament for the third time in the past four years. Wiggs joined Lincoln after spending three years as an assistant coach at Moberly Area Community College. He was most recently a member of the Greyhounds’ women’s basketball staff, where he helped the team compile a two-year record of 40-22 after the program had gone 7-24 the previous year. Wiggs helped the team break a 32-year record for scoring defense in 2013, as the Greyhounds gave up just 48.5 points per game. In 2013, the Greyhounds ranked 15th nationally in opponents field goal percentage (.331), 24th in steals (12.6 per game) and 34th in blocked shots (3.7 per game). Thanks to that impressive defense, MACC went 14-1 at home during the 2012-13 season and appeared in the National Junior College Athletic Association Top 25 poll for the first time since 2009.
Alex Wiggs
Assistant Coach 3rd Season at LU 3rd Season Overall
Four players coached by Wiggs over the past two season earned NJCAA All-Region 16 honors while two more were honorable mention selections. Wiggs coached 13 players who later signed with four-year colleges, the most a coach has had in his or her first two years in program history. Wiggs helped MACC achieve finishes of third and second in the NJCAA Region 16 and coached two players who are now on NCAA Division I rosters. Wiggs assisted in organizing and scheduling travel, recruiting, strength and conditioning training and scouting as well as providing players with individual instruction. In addition to helping with game strategy and being an on-floor coach, Wiggs oversaw the team’s academic progress and, over the past two years, helped 18 student athletes earn cumulative grade point averages of 3.0 or higher; nine student athletes earn a spot on the Dean’s List with 3.5 or better averages; and six student athletes selected to the President’s List with perfect 4.0 grade point averages. Before taking over as the assistant women’s basketball coach at Moberly, Wiggs served on the Greyhounds’ men’s basketball staff from August 2010-July 2011. Wiggs helped plan game strategy, scouted opponents and worked as a recruiter for the Greyhounds in addition to his work as an on-floor coach. Wiggs coached two all-region honorees during his lone season with the team and led the Greyhounds to the NJCAA Region 16 semifinals. Wiggs graduated from John Brown University in 2010 and earned a master’s degree in 2012.

Dr. Kevin D. Rome, Sr. earned the Bachelor of Art degree in English from Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia in 1989. He received the Master of Education in College Student Personnel with an emphasis in counseling from the University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, in 1991, and the Ph.D. in higher education administration from the University of Texas at Austin in Austin, Texas in 2001. Dr. Rome’s career has been concentrated in higher education, beginning at Georgia Southwestern College in Americus, Georgia, where he served as the Upward Bound Residence Hall Supervisor in the summer of 1989. While there he led a staff of four tutor counselors, coordinated recreation programs and field trips and coordinated the program’s food service.
Dr. Kevin D. Rome Lincoln University President
From 1989 to 1991, he served as a residence director, Greek advisor and also as a financial aid counselor at the University of Georgia, while pursuing his graduate degree. In 1991, Dr. Rome joined the staff of California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, California as the Coordinator of Student Development. In this position, he was responsible for the administration coordination and program sponsorship of two residential facilities, housing 434 men and women. He also coordinated the curriculum and taught Psychology 251, a course for resident advisors.
In 1992, he was promoted to the position of Academic Development Specialist, in which was responsible for the academic, leadership development and outreach programs of the university’s on-campus residents.

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY 2015-16 WOMEN'S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Since 2003, few teams in any sport have achieved the level of success enjoyed by the Lincoln women’s track & field team. The Blue Tigers continued the dynasty in spring of 2014, when Lincoln won the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field national title. Winners of 11 total national championships over the past 12 years, including five-straight NCAA Division II outdoor titles from 2003-2007, the Blue Tiger track & field program was honored in 2013 by being inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame. Lincoln has established itself as one of the top track & field programs in all of NCAA Division II, having finished in the top three at every outdoor championship meet since 2003. That includes a special 2012 season in which both the Lincoln men and women finished as the national runners-up at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. No team in the MIAA has come close to matching what the LU women have done on the track, as the Blue Tigers have won eight conference indoor and outdoor championship meets since 2010. The Lincoln men's golf team has also experienced the feeling of winning a championship recently, as the Blue Tigers have won the past two PGA Minority Collegiate Championship Division II tournaments. An annual golf tournament sponsored by the PGA and open to all HBCU men's golf programs, Lincoln posted wire-to-wire victories at the championship in 2013 and 2014. In 2015, Blake Lammers continued the tradition by becoming the individual champion at the PGA Minority Collegiate Championship. Over the past four years, 10 of Lincoln's 14 athletic programs have qualified for some form of postseason competition. In 2011-12, the LU women's basketball team came within eight points of playing in the MIAA tournament championship game. In 2013, Twishana Williams became the only female runner in the MIAA to earn All-American honors. The Blue Tiger softball team, which had an athlete selected as an academic all-American in 2013, and the LU tennis team have also qualified for the MIAA championship tournament over the past three seasons while, in 2012-13, Cedric Ridle of the LU men's basketball team was the MIAA's scoring champion.

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY 2015-16 WOMEN'S BAKSETBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Lincoln University History of Lincoln University At the close of the Civil War, soldiers and officers of the 62nd United States Colored Infantry, stationed at Fort McIntosh, Texas, but composed primarily of Missourians, took steps to establish an educational institution in Jefferson City, Missouri, which they named Lincoln Institute. The following stipulations were set for the school: 1. The institution shall be designed for the special benefit of the freed African-Americans; 2. It shall be located in the state of Missouri; 3. Its fundamental idea shall be to combine study and labor. Members of the 62nd Colored Infantry contributed $5,000; this was supplemented by approximately $1,400, given by the 65th Colored Infantry. On January 14, 1866, Lincoln Institute was formally established under an organization committee. By June of the same year, it incorporated and the committee became a Board of Trustees. Richard Baxter Foster, a former first lieutenant in the 62nd Infantry, was named first principal of Lincoln Institute. On September 17, 1866, the school opened its doors to the first class in an old frame building in Jefferson City. In 1869, Lincoln Institute moved to the present campus, and in 1870 it began to receive aid from the state of Missouri for teacher training. College-level work was added to the curriculum in 1877, and passage of the Normal School Law permitted Lincoln graduates to teach for life in Missouri without further examination. Lincoln Institute formally became a state institution in 1879 with the deeding of the property to the state. Under the second Morrill Act of 1890, Lincoln became a land grant institution, and the following year industrial and agricultural courses were added to the curriculum. In 1921, the Missouri Legislature passed a bill introduced by Walthall M. Moore, the first black American to serve in that body, which changed the name from Lincoln Institute to Lincoln University and created a Board of Curators to govern the University. The North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools accredited the high school division in 1925, the teacher-training program in 1926, and the four-year college of arts and sciences in 1934. Graduate instruction was begun in the summer session of 1940, with majors in education and history and minors in English, history, and sociology. A School of Journalism was established in February 1942. In 1954, the United States Supreme Court handed down its ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, and Lincoln University responded by opening its doors to all applicably meeting its entrance criteria. Today, Lincoln University serves a diverse clientele, both residential and non-residential, engages in a variety of research projects, and offers numerous public service programs in addition to providing an array of academic programs.
