THE OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE Entering its 63rd year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. For only the second time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois University Edwardsville as the league’s 11th member in 2008. The move expanded the OVC’s geographical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the first change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Samford) in 2003. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the MidAmerican Conferences. The OVC’s proud past 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 Feb. 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 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. A first in the OVC occurred in 2008, when the league had a first round draft pick in both the NFL (Tennessee State’s Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie) and Major League Baseball (Eastern Kentucky’s Christian Friedrich) Drafts in the same school year. The OVC sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle.

TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY The DAVIS BUILDING is topped by its landmark cupola and houses the Department of Languages, Literature and Philosophy and the Thomas E. Poag Auditorium. The building, which once housed the administrative offices, is named after TSU’s second president Dr. Walter S. Davis.

Founded in 1912, Tennessee State University has grown dramatically from a small college to two campuses: the 500-acre main campus and the downtown Avon Williams campus which is located in the heart of Nashville near the State capitol. The diverse student population of more than 8,000 represents 46 states and 45 countries. TSU has been listed for 11 consecutive years in the U.S. News & World Report “Guide to America’s Best Colleges.” Tennessee State University is a comprehensive, urban, coeducational land-grant university offering 45 bachelor degrees and 24 master’s degrees. Doctoral programs include biological sciences, psychology, public administration, computer information systems engineering, administration and supervision, and curriculum and instruction. When you think about Tennessee State University, many things come to mind – a rich heritage and legacy in athletics, academics, entertainment, research and service. Tennessee State University has long been a rising star among universities across the country. It is designated as one of the best public historically black colleges and universities in the nation, and it’s not by accident. Tennessee State University is among the few historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) with a chapter of Phi Eta Sigma, the oldest and largest freshman honor society in the United States and a Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society, the most prestigious honor society comprising all academic disciplines. A great deal of focus has been given to improving the academic environment – strengthening our research reputation, attracting and retaining the best and brightest students, encouraging service-focused programs, engaging and supporting expert faculty in diverse fields, building on our student-centered philosophy and holding steadfast to our motto of “Think. Work. Serve.” Currently, we are improving customer service and setting new standards of excellence in higher education. But with all the many examples of past accomplishments we can share, we are looking toward an even brighter future.

AVON WILLIAMS CAMPUS

TSU President Melvin Johnson, Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen and Nashville Mayor Karl Dean cut the ribbon at the Avon Williams Campus Renovation Opening Ceremony.

The Avon Williams Campus is located downtown, near the center of the Nashville business and government district. Avon Nyanza Williams, Jr., a leading African American lawyer in Tennessee and state senator, represented the plaintiffs in Geier v. Blanton 1972. In 1972, the federal judge, Frank T. Gray, Jr., allowed Sterling Adams and Raymond Richardson (two black professors of mathematics at TSU) and nearly 100 other black citizens from across Tennessee to enter the Geier case as plaintiffs. They formed Tennesseans for Justice in Higher Education. Their complaint centered on the issue that the presence in Nashville of two state supported universities, Tennessee State University a historically black institution and predominately white University of Tennessee at Nashville, perpetuated a state of segregation in higher education in Nashville. In February 1977, Judge Gray ordered the merger of both institutions under the governance of Tennessee State University. This was the first time that a court in a higher education desegregation suite had ordered a historically black college to take over a predominately white one. In 1979 the University of Tennessee at Nashville merged with Tennessee State University, creating an enlarged institution with two campuses and increased enrollment. The original TSU campus, located in North Nashville is designated as the Main Campus and the former UT-N campus was renamed in honor of Avon Williams, Jr.

TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY

SEASON REVIEW

Lady Tiger Basketball A er coming oﬀ the program’s best season in over ten years in 2008-09, the Tennessee State University women’s basketball team had an up and down journey in 2009-10. In a very close OVC race, TSU finished the season in eighth place with a 7-11 league mark. The Lady Tigers recorded an overall record of 10-18.

Okafor Returns A er si ng out the previous season due to injury, Oby Okafor made her return to the court. She led the Lady Tigers in scoring (14.5 ppg) and rebounding (7.5 rpg) and was named to the All-OVC first team for her eﬀorts. She finished her career with 1,622 points and 826 rebounds, ranking third among TSU’s all- me leading scorers and fourth among rebounders.

Passing the mark With a career total of 505, LaDona Pierce surpassed Kim Graves on TSU’s All-Time Career Assists Leaders list. Pierce broke the record a er dishing out a game-high nine assists against Eastern Illinois on February 27, 2010. Graves (1991-93; 94-96) was a member of TSU’s second championship team and had held the assists record for 14 years with 503. Stafford Stood Out A er a slow offensive start, Meredith Stafford finished the season as the team’s second leading scorer. She nearly averaged double digits with 9.8 ppg while pos ng

12.2 points per game in conference only games. Staﬀord only averaged 5.5 ppg the first half of the season but a er a 19-point break-out performance at Jacksonville State (1/19/10), she turned in 15.5 ppg through the remaining 12 games of the season. Road Worries TSU had its share of struggles on the road in 2009-10, and only managed an away record of 2-11 (2-7 OVC). TSU’s only road wins of the season were against Tennessee Tech (1/23/10) and Southeast Missouri (2/25/10). Be er at Home The Lady Tigers had winning records on their home court going 8-5 overall and 5-4 in conference play. Overall, TSU’s numbers were be er in the Gentry Center compared to on the road. The Lady Tigers averaged 65.3 ppg and shot .377 from the field at home compared to 60.6 ppg and a .360 field goal percentage on the road.

Looking for the Right Fit The Lady Tigers used 14 different line-ups in 2009-10. Among the 2010-11 returners, Meredith Stafford was the most consistent starter with a total of 25 starts. Kesi Hess started in seven games while Simone Hopes, Ashley Tate, Des ney Gaston and Avery Jones each registered six starts. 2009-10 STARTING LINE-UP RECORDS Hopes, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford ...........1-2 Hopes, Okafor, Pierce, Smith, Stafford ...........1-2 Hess, Jones, Smith, Stafford, Tate ..................0-1 Hess, Jones, Okafor, Pierce, Stafford .............1-0 Gaston, Hess, Jones, Rumph, Tate .................1-0 Cromartie, Hess, Pierce, Smith, Tate..............0-1 Cromartie, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Smith ......0-1 Okafor, Pierce, Smith, Stafford, Tate ..............0-1 Jones, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford ..........1-2 Hess, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford ...........2-1 Gaston, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford ........2-3 Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Shuler, Stafford .........0-1 Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford, Tate ............1-1 Cromartie, Okafor, Pierce, Rumph, Stafford ...0-2

Close Calls Down the stretch, as every game became more crucial and the OVC tournament drew closer, TSU dropped two close contests to Tennessee Tech and Jacksonville State. Both games went down to the wire as the Lady Tigers fell to the Golden Eagles, 76-73, before a heartbreaking, 67-65, loss to the Gamecocks. EIU again For the third straight year TSU was eliminated from the OVC tournament by Eastern Illinois. As the eighth seed, TSU had to face #1 seeded EIU in the first round in which the Panthers defeated the Lady Tigers 73-56. The previous year saw TSU fall to EIU, 64-48, in the semi-finals (2008-09) a er the Lady Tigers suﬀered a, 65-51, loss in the opening round of the 2007-08 tournament.

TSU OLYMPIAN STATUE

The total height of the monumental icon, the TSU Olympian Statue, is 46 feet. It was constructed using the slip roller technique, a process that allows an artist to bend sheets of metal at incremental degrees between rollers. The artist who designed and constructed the TSU Olympian has been a faculty member at Tennessee State University since 1994, Jane-Allen McKinney, Associate Professor of Art. THE FIGURE: The figure is made of brass, aluminum and copper with a brush textured finish and the figure itself stands 21’ tall. The percentage of each metal used in the sculpture corresponds in direct proportion to the number of Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals won by athletes affiliated with Tennessee State University (Brass for Gold medallist, Aluminum for Silver medallist, and Copper for Bronze medallist).

“The TSU Olympian holds a brass diploma in the right hand as an icon for the educational baton passed from TSU to her students.” All of the TSU Olympic winners earned undergraduate degrees from TSU. The diploma reads “Tennessee State University, Degree Awarded” with this text visible to the viewer standing at the foot of the base. The Olympic torch is in the left hand of the runner. THE COLUMNS: The Olympian stands on two Egyptian papyrus style columns, one 16’-8” for the raised bent knee and one 14’ for the extended leg. The Papyrus columns consist of ribbed aluminum banded with brass, aluminum and copper, representing bundles of papyrus stocks tied together for strength, typical of Egyptian columns. THE BASE: The base of the TSU Olympian is made of pre-cast concrete 11 feet high and nearly 19 feet at its greatest diameter. It is adorned with three metal bands, each band engraved with the names of Olympic medallists from Tennessee State University (Brass for Gold medallist, Aluminum for Silver medallist, and Copper for Bronze medallist). Future Tennessee State University Olympic winners will have their names added to these bands. The base is in the style of a capital from an Egyptian column. Engraved bricks surround the base of the TSU Olympian with names and messages from TSU patrons whose donations for the bricks will support TSU students. All proceeds from the Olympic brick program will be for Tennessee State University student scholarships. est. 2005
