Season Outlook

ith six veterans returning and a large cast of transfers, redshirts and talented true freshmen, the Benedict College Lady Tigers are ready to make another run at the conference title that slipped from their grasps last season. Benedict finished 18-10 last season. For other programs, and other teams, that may be cause for celebration. But for the 2010 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tournament champions, it was a classic case of close, but no cigar. The Lady Tigers lost two conference games in overtime, and another by one point. So in essence, Benedict was four points away from 18-4 and in first place in the SIAC standings instead of 15-7 and fourth. Benedict was knocked out of the tournament in the semifinal round by topseed Fort Valley State. That experience should pay off for the Lady Tigers, who return five players who started a significant amount of games. “That intense mode should automatically kick in, that re- Bridget Williams fuse to lose mode should automatically kick in,” said coach Felecia Jenkins, who is starting her seventh year at Benedict College. “Those particular games, we faltered on that. Those are some of the things we are rectifying. Inside the four lines, coaches can call time out and make subs. We can’t get in there inside the four lines and get that intense mode that should automatically kick in, that refuse to lose intense mentality.” Senior point guard Bridget Williams will take over the leadership reigns and will direct the offense once again for the Lady Tigers. She has averaged nearly 10 points per game in each of the last two years, and led Benedict in assists last year. Also returning for Benedict is junior forward Brittany Jackson, who was named the 2010 SIAC Tournament MVP after helping lead the Lady Tigers to that championship. Last year, she averaged 8.8 points and a team-high 8.3 rebounds per game. “The bulk of the weight on this team will be placed on their respective shoulders. We will look for some heavy minutes from these young ladies; we will look for them

to be leaders, coaches on the floor, which will make the game much easier for the young ladies surrounding them,” Jenkins said. “Their skill set is unquestionable, but the thing we love about both of these young ladies is they do play defense and they know how to run a team, they know how to keep a team together. That’s the biggest upside.” Another returning starter is junior guard Alexus Jones. She played in 20 games last year, starting nine. She averaged 7.8 points last season, but her primary contribution is on the defensive side of the court. “She’s probably one of the best defenders I have ever coached while at Benedict, and this is going into my seventh season here,” Jenkins said. “Lex is so quick on her feet, she puts pressure on the ball. Along with Brittany and Bridget Williams, Lex is going to be a pivotal piece of the puzzle as well.” Another key returnee is junior forward Santera Grooms, who started eight games, including the final six of the season. She averaged 4.6 points and 2.4 rebounds per game. “I’m looking for Santeria Grooms to have a breakout season,” Jenkins said. “When we got her last year, she was kind of feeling her way, still kind of out of shape, so she kind of deferred her talents to the ones around here. This will be a great year for her to step out and take ownership of this program. She has that kind of knowledge; she has that kind of skill set. But that player has to be the one to make that step. We can push and probe all day long, but she has to be willing to take that step and take that ownership, and when she does, it is going to be a beautiful thing. She’s the best skill-wise I have coached.” Junior guard Monique Weathers started 14 of 28 games last season and was one of the team’s top 3-point shooters. Jenkins said Weathers will have an important roll once again. “Mo is probably one of the most basic-skilled players I have coached. She goes hard, she plays defense hard. Mo is one of those quiet weapons that an opposing team does not prepare for. And when you don’t prepare for her, she can be deadly to your defense because she can shoot

Season Outlook

the long ball, she can put the ball on the floor, she can pass. She spots up and she’s ready to hit the open jump shot. If you close out too hard on her, she can take you off the dribble.” The final returning veteran is junior guard Chelsea Passante. She played in 25 games last year, but was limited due to injuries after starting as a true freshman the year before. Passante had off-season knee surgery, and Jenkins is hoping to have a healthy Passante ready for the second half of the season. “She is one of the most potent shooters. When she’s on, it’s going to be a long night for the opposing team because she can put the ball in the basket,” Jenkins said. “She is a huge piece to this puzzle. I’m just hoping she works hard enough to get back from these injuries.” Alexus Jones Joining the team this year is junior guard LaTeia Brailey, a transfer from South Carolina State University. “LeTeia is definitely an upgrade,” Jenkins said. “She was a steal. I’ve seen Teia play since she was in high school and always enjoyed watching her play. She is one of the most savvy, aggressive players I have seen in the game. She brings a lot to this program. The kid can play, and she plays on both sides. I’m excited and ready to see her play.” Another transfer addition is Chelsey Peterson, a Columbia native who joins Benedict from USC Upstate. Other new additions are juniors LaTayvia Mack and senior Ruth Ann Simms, a pair of volleyball players who will be joining the basketball team. Mack hasn’t played basketball since high school, but Jenkins is eager to add Mack, a big body with incredible jumping ability and the SIAC’s reining volleyball Offensive Player of the Year, to the roster. “We are excited about her. We are going to bring her along slow. She will stay around here Christmas break, so she can work to get into basketball shape,” Jenkins said. “LaTayvia can post, she can step out and hit the 15 to 17foot jumper.” Simms, who also plays softball, is an all-around athlete who played junior college basketball. “When Rudy and LaTayvia step inside the four lines, that is definitely going to be a matchup problem for the conference, because they can play. A lot of people don’t know

about Rudy. She can play,” Jenkins said. Other new faces are sophomores Cierra Moore and Maura Wood. Moore is returning to the game after a two-year break after having a baby. “I know Cierra is hungry. She’s ready to go,” Jenkins said. “She’s one of the most patient post players I have coached. When the ball is in her hand, she takes her time, she makes the right pass, she makes the right play. I’m just ready to see how she finds her way around all this other talent and to be successful. I’m excited about Cierra Moore as well.” Four freshman join the roster in guards Taylor Carter and Genesis Montilla and forwards Kaiya Elliott and Ashley Gadsen. “We really don’t expect a whole lot from our freshmen, but whatever they give us is always going to be a bonus and we’ve got some freshmen who can step up and actually give us some things,” Jenkins said. Benedict led the SIAC in 3-pointers made last year, and the Lady Tigers expect to make that a big part of their offensive arsenal again. “We’re going to put up some threes if they leave us open,” Jenkins said. But the key to Benedict’s success under Jenkins – two SIAC tournament titles and three 20-win seasons in six years – has been defense. Last year, the Lady Tigers ranked third in scoring defense and first in rebounding defense. “Offense will keep you in games and win you a few games. But I know if you defend, it gives you a better chance at winning championships, putting yourself and your team to be in a championship game,” Jenkins said. “To me, that’s what you train for. You don’t train hard to finish second, third or fourth. We were right there last year and we faltered. Hopefully, prayerfully, these young ladies look back at all those heart-felt losses, those ones that we felt we allowed to happen to us, and we can rectify those things and go in this year with a different mindset, a different charge. That’s what we’re focusing on this year, to not let games slip through our hands. “This year we’re looking to do some big things. We’re excited about it and we’re just ready to let them go and let them play.”

Benedict College Founded in 1870 by Rhode Island native Alumni Hall Mrs. Bathsheba Benedict, Benedict College was an 80-acre plantation when purchased as the Benedict Institute. The investors’ - Mrs. Benedict and the Baptist Home Mission - long-term goal was to educate emancipated African-Americans and produce citizens “powers for good in society”. Nearly 141 years later, Benedict College has been one of the fastest growing of 39 United Negro College Fund Schools. Of the 20 independent colleges in South Carolina, Benedict has the largest undergraduate student body and is the second largest overall. The College has students enrolled from every county in South Carolina. More than 2,800 students currently study at the school and is distinguished by its continued commitment to facilitate the empowerment, enhancement, and full participation of African Americans in a global society. The school’s growth is more than an expanding student

enrollment. Benedict College is also involved in an ambitious building program. The beautiful park-like campus is located on the corners of Harden and Taylor Streets. The campus has undergone substantial renovations to its Antisdel Chapel, the Benjamin E. Mays Human Resource Center, Morgan Hall, Pratt Hall, and all of its dormitories. But the school’s growth is not limited to its historic area. Benedict College is also erecting a multi-million dollar, 60acre sports complex off of Two Notch Road in Columbia. The new facility will include tennis courts, baseball fields, fitness trails, and running track. The heart of the complex is the 11,000 seat Charlie W. Johnson football stadium. After a 30-year hiatus, football returned to Benedict College in 1995. And with football came its complement, the marching band. While credited by some as a boost to male student enrollment, according to Dr. David H. Swinton, president of Benedict College, the move back to football was a way for students to feel a “community esprit de corps”, and to boost the “spirit and quality of the school”. The spirit and quality have attracted their share of additional success. The average SAT scores, Honors College enrollee rate, capital giving dollars and the number of research grants awarded to Benedict College have all increased. Also growing are

the numbers of valedictorians and high achievers choosing the school as their first choice for higher education. Students attending Benedict College have the opportunity to earn four-year, liberal arts degree from 30 different disciplines. These include: accounting, art, biology, business administration, chemistry, child and family development, computer science, computer/information science, criminal justice, early childhood education, economics, elementary education, English, environmental health science, history, mathematics, music education, physics, political science, recreation, religion and philosophy, and social work. Receiving an academic education is only part of the Benedict College experience. Service to the community also defines their students. To encourage their community toward fairness and equality, Benedict College started The Center of Excellence for Community Development in 1997. This center is comprised of four programs: Educational Excellence, Child and Family Program, Business and Economic Development, the Democracy and Government. Each program is designed to help solve a distinct set of problems afflicting American society and in particular African-Americans. The goal of the Education Excellence Program is to improve the standardized test scores and performance of African-American students. Innovative test-taking skills will be taught to participating students using a variety of life experiences as teaching and learning aides. Success in searching this goal will assist the program in reaching another important goal of reducing the dropout rate of African American students. Solving problems associated with growing up in a disadvantaged home is the mission of the Child and Fam-

ily (Excellence) Program. This part of the Excellence Center develops strategies, tactics, and programs to help African Americans deal with problems related to poverty, drug addiction and child abuse. Encouraging small business ownership, and business improvement, particularly among AfricanAmericans, is the goal of the Business and Economic Development Program. The Excellence Center focuses on teaching the principles and practices of entreprenuership and equates ownership with empowerment. Community participation in the governmental process is the overall goal of the Democracy and Government portion of the Benedict College Center of Excellence. Of particular interest are the efforts this program makes to encourage voting. The eventual goal is to “enable our American democracy to work effectively not just for some of its people, but for all of its people�, said Swinton. Benedict College has a long history of producing high achievers. Some notable alumni include: Maj. Gen. Matthew Zimmerman, Dr. LeRoy Walker, and president emeritus of the US Olympic Committee. Other distinguished graduates include: I.S. Leevy Johnson Esq., the first African American President of the SC Bar Association; Modjeska Simkins, often referred as the mother of the South Carolina Civil Rights Movement; and Maria Pyles, 1990 SC Teacher of the Year and the National Teacher of the Year finalist. Benedict College has also hosted many distinguished entertainers and visitors as part of its performing arts and lecture programs. Additionally, Benedict has hosted several political and community leaders such as Michelle Obama; Senator Hillary Clinton; John Edwards, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Congressman James E. Clyburn and Former Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun.

Washington had spent the previous twelve years as the Head Men’s Basketball Coach and Athletic Director across the street at Allen University. After building a successful basketball program at Allen University it was time to turn his attention to revamping the Benedict College Program. Under his leadership, the Tigers were the scourge of the EIAC, winning six Commissioner’s Cups, the hallmark of excellence for the school with the best athletic programs. Benedict won six out of seven during their stay in the EIAC since the inauguration of the award. Washington was named the 1999 National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Southeast Region Athletic Director of the Year by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics.

He was named the winner of eight EIAC Coach of the Year awards and was inducted into the EIAC Hall of Fame in 1998. In 2004 in the coaching category, Washington was inducted into the Benedict College Hall of Fame. Washington, who performed well in both roles winning nine straight Eastern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Championships (EIAC) and expanding the athletic program from 8 to 14 sports including the return of football, realized that the growth of the athletic department demanded his full attention. After 11 years of wearing two hats, that of Men’s Basketball Coach and Athletic Director, Mr. Washington is entering his 22nd year as Athletic Director. Benedict is currently a member National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) affiliate and a member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC). During

The SIAC The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) was founded in 1913 and today, 97 years later, the conference still flies high as one of the nation’s most viable forces in intercollegiate athletics. On December 30, 1913, representatives of the following institutions met at Morehouse College to consider the regulations of intercollegiate athletics among black colleges in the southeast: Alabama State University, Atlanta University, Clark College, Fisk University, Jackson College, Morehouse College, Morris Brown College, Talladega College and Tuskegee Institute. The representatives formed a permanent organization (The Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference) which has had a continuous history to the present. In 1929, they changed the name of this organization to The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Two institutions have held continuous membership in the conference: Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University) and Tuskegee University. Other institutions which have held membership are Alabama A&M University, Allen University, Benedict College, Bethune-Cookman University, Edward Waters College, Fisk University, Florida A&M University, Jackson State University, Knoxville College, Morris Brown College, Rust College, Savannah State University, South Carolina State University, Tennessee State University and Xavier University. The present membership is composed of thirteen different institutions in five states (Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennessee): Albany State University, Benedict College, Claflin University, Clark Atlanta University, Fort Valley State University, Kentucky State University, Lane College, LeMoyne-Owen College, Miles College, Morehouse College, Paine College, Stillman College and Tuskegee University. The SIAC also has a provisional member, Claflin University. The SIAC is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and participates at the Division II level. On an annual basis, the SIAC sponsors seven men’s championships (baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, outdoor track & field and tennis) and six women’s championships (basketball, cross country, outdoor track & field, softball, tennis and volleyball). SIAC teams and its athletes are known for being staunch competitors and for excelling on the national level. The conference as a whole has claimed over 50 team and individual national championships.

He guided Florida A&M to six black college national championships and his Rattlers won the SIAC Championship 22 of the 25 years he coached college football. Cleve Abbott coached all sports at Tuskegee in 1923, and he served there continuously from 1923 to 1955. He won eleven SIAC football championships and seven black college football national championships. Abbott had a total of six undefeated seasons, and his Tigers went 46 consecutive games without a loss in the mid 1920s. From 1936-56, Abbott’s track teams at Tuskegee participated in 36 national AAU championships and won 25. Two of the first four blacks selected to play in the NBA were from the SIAC. Some of the former stars who have enjoyed success in the NBA include the Jones brothers – Caldwell, Charles, Major and Wilbert of Albany State, Clemon Johnson of Florida A&M and Harold Ellis of Morehouse. On the coaching side the late Ed Adams coached at Tuskegee and during his 23-year span, he won 645 games and only lost 153 for an .811 winning percentage. Adams was a member of the 1934 Tuskegee team that won the first SIAC Basketball Tournament Championship and he was the first black basketball coach to win 500 games. Also, current Temple University Head Coach John Chaney is an SIAC alumnus. Chaney was one of the SIAC’s outstanding players in the late 1950s at Bethune-Cookman. The first black female to win a gold medal in any Olympic Sport, Alice Coachman, came from the SIAC. Coachman won an Olympic gold medal in the high jump at the 1948 Olympic Games in London with a jump of 5’6-1/8?. She also won the AAU high jump title for 10 consecutive years.

In 1957, Althea Gibson of Florida A&M became the first black to win the singles title at Wimbledon, and she is a member of the National Lawn Tennis Hall of Fame. The SIAC also has had its share of success on the baseball diamond, which includes a World Series MVP. Donn Clendenon of Morehouse was the MVP of the 1969 World Series when he played with the New York Mets. Andre Dawson of the Chicago Cubs and Vince Coleman of the St. Louis Cardinals played at Florida A&M. Other A&M Rattlers that made it to the big show include Greg Coleman and Bill Lucas. After concluding his major league baseball career, Lucas became the first black general manager in baseball with the Atlanta Braves in 1978. A banner year for the SIAC was 1993 when member institutions competed for NCAA Division II Championships in eight different sports. In football, Albany State went 11-0 during the regular season and made its first trip to the playoffs; Alabama A&M’s men and women competed in the Indoor Track and Field Championships and both finished in the top five. In men’s basketball, Alabama A&M made a national playoff appearance as did Fort Valley State’s women’s squad. Alabama A&M’s men’s cross country team won the southeastern regional title and finished eighth at the nationals. At the Outdoor Track & Field Championships, Alabama A&M’s men finished 10th and the women claimed their second consecutive national title. The SIAC is also home to both the longest running rivalry and the winningest team in black college football. Morehouse and Tuskegee have been doing battle since 1902 and will hit the field for the 99th time in the 2008 season. Tuskegee will be celebrating its 115th season this fall and they have amassed over 600 victories – first among Historically Black Colleges and Universities. All SIAC member institutions have a rich athletic history. They rely heavily on past leadership to help them face today’s challenges as they continue their quest to excel in collegiate athletics.

We have joined institutions across 22 conferences and independents in committing to safe, fun, and entertaining sporting experiences on Division II campuses. We have signed the pledge to create and continue family-friendly experiences for everyone.

NCAA Division II presidents and chancellors affirm that athletics events should reflect the values of higher education and the mission of each institution. Division II emphasizes learning and development in a personal setting. As chancellors and presidents, we are concerned about the uncivil behavior exhibited at college athletics contests and thereby pledge to work together to make respectful, familyfriendly events a standard of the Division II experience.
