2011-12 OUTLOOK


Delaware State University’s 2011-12 squad will bear little resem-blance to the team that posted a 9-20 overall record and a 10th place finish in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (5-11 MEAC) last season.

The Lady Hornets will return just four players who saw action dur-ing the 2010-11 season, although two were starters a year ago.

Ed Davis, who is in his 12th year as head coach of the Lady Hor-nets, faces the challenge of replacing his top two scorers, leading rebounder and best three-point shooter from last season.

His 2011-12 active roster features seven freshmen, four sopho-mores, one junior and zero seniors.

Davis is hoping his team will make up in quickness and athlet-icism what it lacks in experience.

“We will have the youngest squad since I’ve been at Dela-ware State,” said Davis, who has led the Lady Hornets to a 171-159 overall record in his first 11 years with the team. His tenure at DSU has been highlighted by the 2008 MEAC Tournament cham-pionship and four other title game appearances.

“I’m certain we will have our ups and downs this season, but I like the potential of this team,” Davis said.

Topping the list of returning players is point guard Tasia Bristow (so., 5-5, Baltimore, Md.), who was third on the Lady Hornets in scoring (8.1 ppg) and second in three-point field goals (38) during the 2010-11 season. Bristow scored a team season-high 25 points (10-13 FGs) in a victory over St. Francis (N.Y.) last season.

Versatile Deanna Harmon (so., 5-7, Owings Mills, Md.) returns for her second season. Last year, Harmon was tops on the Lady Hornets in assists (82) and steals (50), and fourth in scoring (7.3

ppg). She was seventh in the MEAC in assists (2.8 pg) and 11th in steals (1.7 pg) as a freshman last season.

The other returning players from last season are guard Crystal Pitt (jr., 5-7, Ft. Washington, Md.) and center Uchechi Ahaiwe (jr., 6-3, Riverdale, Md.).

Pitt averaged 2.5 points in 27 games (12.1 minutes-per-game), but will not play this season due to injury.

Ahaiwe appeared in 21 contests (4.0 mpg), averaging 0.8 points.

Topping the list of 2011-12 newcomers is forward Tierra Hawkins (fr., 6-2, Clinton, Md.), a former standout at Washing-ton, D.C., area power Riverdale Baptist. Hawkins, who sat out last season, helped lead River-dale to two conference champi-onships. She averaged 13 points and eight rebounds per-game in her final season at the school. Her twin sister Tianna plays for the University of Maryland.

The Lady Hornets have bolstered their front line with the addition of Morgan Woodruff (fr., 6-2; Bloomington, Ind.). Woodruff was a Top 10 Indiana recruit following a successful career at Bloomington South High School.

Guard/forward Keyanna Tate (fr., 6-0, Beltsville, Md.) was a 2010-11 McDoanld’s All-America nominee at Bowie (Md.) High School before signing with the Lady Hornets. Tate is a two-time All-District of Columbia Inter-

scholastic Athletic Association First Team selection.

Baltimore (Md.) standout Chel-sea Dukes (fr., 5-11) also joins the Lady Hornets this season. While at Maryland’s St. Francis Acade-my, Dukes helped lead the team to a 23-3 record and No. 1 state ranking (No. 21 nationally) as a senior. She was an All-Baltimore County First Team selection dur-ing her junior year.

Delaware State will also welcome forward Alexis Thornton (fr., 5-9, El Paso, Texas) to the squad. Thornton averaged 11 points and nearly three rebounds per game as a senior at Montwood H.S.

Former Delaware high school standout Coreenah Redden (fr., 5-7, Wilmington, Del.) joins the Lady Hornets this season. Red-den helped lead Hodgson Vo-Tech to four Blue Hen “Flight B” championships and two overall conference titles. A 2010-11 Mc-Donald’s All-America nominee, she was also listed as a Delaware North Top 10 honoree. Hodgson lost just one conference game during her four varsity seasons.

The Lady Hornets have also added forward Nadirah Durr (fr., 6-0, Avenel, N.J.) to the ros-ter. Durr averaged averaged 13 points and seven rebounds per game as a senior at St. Anthony’s High School. She helped lead the team to a 44-13 record dur-ing her junior and senior sea-sons.

Junior college transfer Tarshaye’ White (so.; 5-0, Suitland, Md.) is expected to add speed and quickness to the backcourt. She helped lead Patrick Henry Com-munity College (Martinsville, Va.) to district, regional and con-ference championships last year.

“Despite our youth, I believe our athleticism has improved,” says Davis. “The challenge for our team is to develop the chemistry and commitment to the hard work it takes to succeed at this level.”

Davis is in his 12th season as head coach of the Lady Hornets. Since accepting the post prior to the 2000-01 season, he has led DSU to the most successful run in the history of the program.

The Washington, D.C., native has an overall record of 171-159 (.518) at DSU, including a 117-73 (.616) mark in MEAC regular season contests. The Davis years at Delaware State are high-lighted by a MEAC Tournament championship and NCAA Tour-nament berth (2007), a MEAC regular season co-championship (2003-04), five MEAC championship game appearances and the only 20-win seasons (four) in team history.

Davis further enhanced his credentials after a hard fought loss to No. 2 seed Vanderbilt in the 2007 NCAA Tournament. His 15th seeded Lady Hornets trailed by just four points at the half and by six with eight minutes left to the heavily favored Commo-dores.

Now in his 20th season as a collegiate head coach, Davis sur-passed the 300-win mark for his career and became Delaware State’s all-time leader in women’s basketball victories during the 2007-08 season. He owns a career record of 342-211 (.618), highlighted by nine seasons with 20-or-more wins.

Delaware State has been particularly tough at home under Da-vis. The Lady Hornets an 89-39 (.695) mark at home during the Davis era. He led the team to a school-record 23 straight home wins from 2003-05.

Delaware State led the MEAC in scoring defense for seven straight years before the string was snapped last season.

During the 2006-07 season, Davis led the Lady Hornets on a 13-2 late-season spurt, including a three-game MEAC Tournament sweep en route to the first league championship in team history.

In 2005-06, Davis led the Lady Hornets to a 21-9 overall record and an appear-ance in the MEAC Tournament title game. The 21 wins matched the most in team history, tying the mark set by his 2003-04 squad. On February 27, 2006 Davis reached a milestone by posting his 100th win at Delaware State.

One year after setting a national record for scoring defense, Delaware State was tops in the MEAC and sixth among all Division I teams in scoring defense at 53.4 points-per-game during the 2005-06 season.

During the 2004-05 campaign, Dela-ware State set a national record for scoring defense. That season, the Lady Hornets became the first Division I women’s team to hold opponents to less than 50 points per game in a sea-son, allowing 49.6 per contest.

Davis also served as the university’s interim Director of Athletics during the 2004-05 academic year.

The previous season (2003-04), Davis led the Lady Hornets to new heights, recording a school-record 21 wins (21-

9) and capturing a share of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference regular season title for the first time in team history. His 2003-04 team was defeated by regular season co-champ Hampton in the MEAC Tournament championship game. That season, Delaware State was 11-0 at home including a 59-56 win over West Virginia, Delaware State’s first against a Big East opponent.

Davis was rewarded by being named MEAC Coach-of-the-Year for the 2003-04 season.

In 2002-03, Davis led the Hornets to the first 20-win season (20-10) in team history. Along the way, the 2002-03 Lady Hornets also set team records for consecutive wins (10) and conference victories (16-2). In addition, the team’s second-place finish in the final MEAC regular standings was the best in the program’s history at the time.

The team was particularly tough at home, winning its last 10 games in Me-morial Hall that season.

During the 2000-01 season, his first at DSU, Davis guided a Delaware State that was picked to finish 10th in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference to within minutes of a conference championship.

In the four years prior to Davis’ arrival, the Lady Hornets were 36-85, and failed

to advance beyond the quarterfinals of the conference tourney.

Prior to taking over the Delaware State job, Davis was head coach at Bowie State University (Md.).

In eight seasons at Bowie, he posted an overall record of 171-54 and turned the Bulldogs into one of the top Division II programs in the country . His tenure was highlighted by three Central Inter-collegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) championships, three NCAA Tourna-ment appearances, and numerous “coach of the year” awards.

Although Bowie State posted a record of 6-19 in 1992-93, Davis’ first season, it marked the most wins by the team in four years.

The following season, 1993-94, Bowie improved to 14-11, its first winning team in 10 years.

Davis’ 1994-95 team was 19-9 and advanced to the championship game of the CIAA Tournament. He captured his first CIAA Coach of the Year award fol-lowing the season. The next four years Davis led Bowie State to an unprecedented run of suc-cess in the CIAA. From 1995 to 1999, the Bulldogs posted a remarkable

110-10 record and a CIAA championship “three-peat.” His 1995-96 team was 28-2 and advanced to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA. The squad also ranked first among all Division II teams in scoring defense. The 1996-97 team had a 28-game winning streak en route to a 29-2 overall mark and the CIAA Tournament champion-ship. The team also qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the second straight year. The following year, 1997-98, the Bulldogs posted a 28-2 re-cord and captured their second straight CIAA Tournament. The team was ranked as high as number six in the national polls.

Davis’ 1998-99 team was 25-4 and captured a third consec-utive CIAA championship before advancing to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA Tournament. In 1999-2000, Bowie State was 22-5 and reached the cham-pionship game of the CIAA Tournament.

From 1995 to 2000, Davis’ teams won 40 consecutive games on their home court.

Davis has earned a number of awards for his coaching suc-cess, including CIAA Coach of the Year in 1995 and Wom-en’s Basketball Coaches Association District II Coach of the Year in 198 and 1999. He was CIAA Tournament Outstand-ing Coach in 1997, ’98 and ’99.

Prior to his years at Bowie State, Davis was a teacher and successful high school coach in the Washington, D.C. area.

Davis was a four-year letterwinner on the West Virginia State men’s basketball team that set NCAA and National As-sociation of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) scoring records in the late 1960s and early 70s.

He holds a master’s in education from Howard University and a bachelor’s in education from West Virginia State College. Davis was inducted into the West Virginia State Athletics Hall of Fame in October 2008.

THE MEACThe Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) begins its 42nd year of intercol-legiate competition heading into the 2011-12 academic school year. Located in Norfolk, Va., the MEAC is made up of 13 outstanding historically black institutions across the Atlantic coastline: Bethune-Cookman University, Coppin State Uni-versity, Delaware State University, Florida A&M University, Hampton University, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State Univer-sity, Norfolk State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University, Savannah State University and South Carolina State University.

The MEAC sponsors 15 Division I (FCS) sports with automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason competition in baseball, bowling, men’s and women’s bas-ketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s track and field, softball, and volleyball.

MEAC student-athletes excel on and off the field and several have been recog-nized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America and All-District teams. The MEAC awards two post-graduate scholarships of $5,000 each annually to one male and one female student-athlete who have excelled academically and athletically and are in their final season of intercollegiate athletics eligibility and competition under MEAC and NCAA regulations.

HISTORYIn 1969, a bold ad hoc group of innovators long associated with intercollegiate athletics met in Durham, N.C., to discuss the feasibility of organizing a new con-ference. From these discussions, they formed a steering and planning committee to fully investigate the idea, present a detailed report with recommendations to interested collegiate institutions and construct a workshop to outline proposals.

After selecting a proposal and adopting a program, seven institutions (Delaware State College, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University and South Carolina State College) agreed to become the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Their major objective was to establish, organize and super-vise an intercollegiate athletic program among a compact group of educational institutions of high academic standards with a sound philosophy of co-curricular activities. The conference agreed to seek Division I status for its sports.

The conference was confirmed in 1970, kicking off its first season of competition in football in 1971.

In 1978, the MEAC reached a milestone when it selected Kenneth A. Free to be its first full-time commissioner. Free served the conference for 18 years before stepping down in May of 1996. In July 1996, Charles S. Harris was named com-missioner and served in the capacity until April 2002. On September 1, 2002, Dr. Dennis E. Thomas was named commissioner and has served in the position for nine years.

The conference’s first expansion occurred in October 1979 when Bethune-Cookman College and Florida A&M University were voted into the MEAC as new

members. Original members Morgan State, North Carolina Central and Maryland Eastern Shore withdrew from the conference at the end of the 1979-80 fiscal year. Maryland Eastern Shore was readmitted in 1981 and Morgan State returned in 1984. Florida A&M opted to resign in 1984 but rejoined the conference in 1986. Coppin State College was granted admittance in 1985, becoming the ninth member institution.

The MEAC expanded again in the 1990s with the inclusion of Hampton University (1995) and Norfolk State University (1997). The conference expanded once again in 2007, adding Winston-Salem State University. Following the 2009-10 academic/athletic season, however, Winston-Salem State withdrew from the conference and returned to Division II. On July 1, 2010, the MEAC made its most recent expansion with the admittance of North Carolina Central and Savannah State University.

On June 8, 1980, the MEAC was classified as a Division I conference by the NCAA. Prior to that year, the conference operated as a Division II conference. The month after it achieved Division I status, the MEAC received an automatic qualification to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. Currently, the confer-ence has automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason play in baseball (since 1994), men’s basketball (since 1981), women’s basketball (since 1982), football (since 1996), softball (since 1995), men’s and women’s tennis (since 1998), and volleyball (since 1994).

The MEAC initiated cross country in 1980, and North Carolina A&T earned the in-augural men’s crown. The first women’s cross country championship took place a year later, with Howard winning the first of its seven titles. Indoor Track and Field was also added in 1981, with South Carolina State capturing the men’s title and Howard winning the women’s crown.

Tennis and golf returned as MEAC-governed sports in 1981 after a five-year hiatus. South Carolina State won all seven of the conference’s golf championships from 1972-1983 before the sport was discontinued after the 1983 championship.

Baseball, which began in 1972, was discontinued following the 1977 season. It was brought back as a MEAC-governed sport along with women’s volleyball in 1983. Women’s softball became a MEAC-sanctioned sport in 1992.

Bowling was officially sanctioned as a MEAC sport in 1999. The MEAC was the first conference to secure NCAA sanctioning for women’s bowling by adopting the club sport prior to the 1996-97 school year.

SPORTS HIGHLIGHTSThe MEAC has enjoyed tremendous athletic success over the years. In 2008, Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) defeated Arkansas State 4-2 to win the NCAA Women’s Bowling National Championship, a first for the conference and institu-tion. With the victory, Lady Hawks’ Head Coach Sharon Brummell became the first female head coach to win an NCAA bowling title. The Lady Hawks repeated the feat in 2011 to win the team’s second NCAA title. During the same season,

UMES won the United States Bowling Congress (USBC) Intercollegiate Team Championships (ITC), becoming the first team to win two national championships during the same season.

In men’s basketball, UMES became the first historically black college/university (HBCU) to participate in the 1974 National Invitational Tour-nament (NIT). The Hawks defeated Manhattan, 84-81, in the first round before falling to Jackson-ville by two points in the second round. Before the Jacksonville loss, UMES had the best record in the nation at 27-1. That same year, Morgan State won the NCAA College Division II National Champi-onship and junior center Marvin “The Human Eraser” Webster was named the Division II Player of the Year.

THE MEAC


The 1981 tournament champion Howard Bison became the first MEAC team to play in the NCAA Division I Basketball Championship.

Coppin State and Hampton made history in the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament with first-round victories. The No. 15 seeded Coppin State Eagles defeated No. 2 South Carolina in 1997, and No. 15 seeded Hampton defeated No. 2 Iowa State in 2001. ESPN Sports Center ranked both victories ranked among the Top 10 greatest tournament upsets of all time

In women’s basketball, South Carolina State won the Association for Intercolle-giate Athletics for Women (AIAW) Division II National Championship in 1979. In 1982, Howard became the first MEAC women’s team to participate in the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Championship. South Carolina State earned the conference’s bid in 1983 and became the first MEAC team, men or women, to win an opening-round game in the NCAA Division I Basketball Tournament.

In 2010, The North Carolina A&T Lady Aggies defeated Wake Forest and Charlotte before falling to Miami in the third round of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament (WNIT). North Carolina A&T became the first MEAC team and historically black college/university to win two consecutive basketball games in a national postseason tournament.

The No. 13 Hampton Lady Pirates faced No. 4 Kentucky in the 2011 NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Tournament. The 13th seed was the highest seed earned by a MEAC women’s basketball program since the inception of the 64-team bracket in 1994.

In football, the MEAC was instrumental in constructing the Freedom Bowl All-Star Classic, the Heritage Bowl and the Gold Bowl. Prior to Division I competition, the MEAC competed in the Gold Bowl, held in Richmond, Va., which matched the MEAC champion against the champion of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). South Carolina State represented the MEAC in 1976 and 1979, winning both outings over Winston-Salem State and Norfolk State respectively. In addition to the 1976 and 1979 crowns, South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83, 1994, 2004, 2008 and 2009. South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83,1994, 2004, 2008 and 2009. They were also named co-champions along with Bethune-Cookman and Florida A&M during the 2010 season. During the 1981 and 1982 seasons, South Carolina State reached the second round of the I-AA championships.

On the track, Hampton’s Francenca McCorory set an American record in the 400m dash with a time of 50.54 and defended her national indoor title at the 2010 NCAA Indoor Championships. McCorory, a two-time All-American and three-time MEAC indoor champion in the 400m dash, became the first back-to-back NCAA indoor 400m champion since Suziann Reid of Texas (1998 and 1999). Mc-Corory was named the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Division I National Athlete of the Year for the 2010 Indoor Track and Field season.

In outdoor track and field, North Carolina Central won the first three MEAC titles. The quartet of Melvin Bassett, Robert Ouko, Julius Sang and Larry Black set the world record in the sprint medley relay with a time of 38.19 in the 1972 Olympics. The Eagles finished fourth in the 1974 NCAA Division I Men’s Outdoor Track and Field Championship. MEAC women began outdoor track and field conference competition in 1980. In 1982, South Carolina State won the AIAW Division II Out-door Track and Field National Championship.

The MEAC has showcased more than 27 athletes in the Olympics. Among them, 11 have earned medals during the Summer Games.

In 2003, Florida A&M became the first MEAC school to win a volleyball match in the NCAA Championship, with a first-round win over Winthrop. In 2004, the Lady Rattlers became the first historically black college/university to rank in the Top 25 of the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) national poll.

South Carolina State’s women’s tennis team earned the conference’s first Intercol-legiate Tennis Association (ITA) ranking in a 2005 poll, reaching No. 72.

In softball, Bethune-Cookman earned the conference’s first-ever at-large bid to the NCAA Softball Championship in 2005. The Lady Wildcats defeated Florida, Central Florida and South Florida in the Florida Regional to become the first MEAC school to win an NCAA Division I Softball Regional. Bethune-Cookman ended the 2005 season with the conference’s first-ever rankings in the final soft-ball polls, reaching No. 18 in the NFCA/USA Today Coaches poll and No. 23 in the USA Softball/ESPN.com Poll.

Florida A&M was the first MEAC baseball team to advance to NCAA postseason play in 1994. The Rattlers took on Southeastern Louisiana in a best of three play-in series, falling after two games, 11-10 and 8-7. During the 2002 campaign, Bethune-Cookman advanced to the Gainesville Regional and became the first MEAC team to win in the NCAA Tournament with a 7-4 victory over Florida Inter-national. The Wildcats had previously lost to Florida in their first game 13-1, and the team was eliminated from the regional with a 21-10 loss in its second matchup against the Gators.

Carter Year by Year

Derek Carter was appointed as Delaware State Univer-sity’s Director of Athletics on April 9, 2009. Carter imme-diately began strengthening all aspects of DSU athletics, including academic services for all student-athletes, fund raising, facility improvements and community support.

Since coming to Delaware State, Carter has reached out to alumni, students, businesses and the community at large to solicit support for the university’s athletics programs. He has traveled throughout the state and region to share his vision for athletics at the university. At the same time, Carter has challenged all DSU teams and student-athletes to give back through community outreach. Hornet student athletes, coaches and staff members performed hundreds of community service hours during Carter’s tenure, ranging from home repairs to mentoring.

Delaware State’s school-record 122 student-athletes listed on the 2010-11 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Com-missioner’s All-Academic Team, tops among all league schools, highlighted Carter’s second full academic year at the university. The MEAC All-Academic Team recognizes non-freshmen student-athletes with a cumulative grade-point-average of 3.0 or higher.

During the 2010-11 academic year, Carter launched the inaugural Athletic Director’s Commencement Breakfast to honor graduating DSU student-athletes. The event included academic achievement awards, highlighted by recognition of three senior athletes who earned perfect 4.0 grade point averages throughout their career.

Carter was also appointed to the NCAA Football Cham-pionship Subdivision (FCS) Tournament Committee in 2010.

In Carter’s first full year at Delaware State, the Hornets placed 98 student-athletes on the MEAC Commissioner’s All-Academic Team (then a school record). Delaware State also earned national recognition under Carter for the selection of senior Kalyn Washburn as the 2010 NCAA Elite 88 Award recipient for women’s bowl-ing. The Elite 88 is presented to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average participating at the finals site for each of the NCAA’s 88 champion-ships. In addition, Washburn was named the 2010 MEAC Woman of the Year. The award, selected annually by MEAC senior woman administrators, celebrates the achievements of female senior student-athletes who have excelled in academics, athletics, service and leadership.

In addition, Carter fully endorsed the establishment of the Delaware Diamond Extravaganza, an annual event to celebrate the achievements of women in athletics.

Carter’s influence at Delaware State has also been evi-dent on the fields of play. During the 2010-11 athletic year, Delaware State captured the MEAC softball Northern Division crown en route to an appearance in the league championship game.

Also in 2010, Hornet volleyball team advanced to the MEAC Tournament championship match for the first time since 1986.

Delaware State’s equestrian team made history last year by sending its English and Western squads to the sport’s national championship competition for the first time.

The DSU track and field teams have continued their dominance during Carter’s tenure. The Hornets captured MEAC indoor titles in men’s 1600-meter relay and the 800-meter run this past year. In addition, the Hornets achieved All-America First Team status in the outdoor 1600-meter relay and second team recognition in the 400-meter hurdles. Also last year, Kendra Mayers (long

jump) became the first DSU female to compete in the NCAA National Championship since 2002.

Delaware State also featured the MEAC softball (Jordan Reid) and baseball (Scott Davis) players-of-the-year dur-ing the 2010-11 athletic season.

Highlighted by second place finishes in basketball and cross country, Delaware State was runner-up for the 2009-10 MEAC Talmadge Hill Award for top overall performance in men’s sports during Carter’s first full year at the university. The Hornet men’s outdoor 1600-meter relay team also captured the MEAC title and qualified for the NCAA championship for the second straight year. On the women’s side, Delaware State claimed its second consecutive MEAC championship and NCAA Tournament appearance in women’s bowling during the 2009-10 ath-letic year. Hornet sophomore Jordan Reid was also named MEAC Softball Player of the Year. Carter brought a wealth of experience in athletics admin-istration to Delaware State. Prior to his appointment at DSU, he served as athletics director at Bowie State University in Bowie, Md., for six years beginning in 2003. Under Carter’s leadership, Bowie State achieved a great deal of success. The bowling team won two-straight CIAA titles (2005 and 2006) and was the conference runner-up in 2009. The squad also claimed the Eastern Division title in 2006. The softball team claimed CIAA championships in 2007 and 2008, earning bids into the NCAA Division II Tournament each of those years. The women’s basketball team earned CIAA Eastern Division titles in 2008 and 2009 and was conference runner-up in ‘09. In 2005, the football team claimed the league’s Eastern Division championship. Prior to his tenure at Bowie State, Carter served from 2001 to 2003 as the athletics director at Virginia State University in Petersburg, Va. His resume’ also includes two stints at his alma mater, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. From 2000 to 2001, he was director of Virginia Tech’s Mono-gram Club, an organization designed to foster fellowship among student-athletes. From 1994 to 1998, Carter was an assistant athletics director at Virginia Tech in posts that focused on spring sports, compliance and student life.

In between his Virginia Tech stints, Carter served as the director of athletics at Patrick Henry High School in Ashland, Va., from 1998 to 2000. Carter earned a Bachelor of Science degree in marketing education from Virginia Tech (’85) and a Master of Sci-ence degree in sports management from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville (’91). He is also a 1997 graduate of the “The Executive Program” of the Sports Management Institute. Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Carter was a football and basketball standout at DeMatha High School in Hyattsville, Md., before enrolling at Virginia Tech. He was a four-year football letterman at Virginia Tech (1981-1984). After performing at wingback in his first season with the Hokies, he was a starter in the defensive backfield his final three years. Carter was a defensive teammate of former Buffalo Bills defensive lineman and a 2009 NFL Hall of Fame inductee Bruce Smith. As a result of his defensive exploits, Carter was named to the 1980s Virginia Tech All-Decade Hokies’ Football Team. He also earned an opportunity to try out as a free agent with the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles in 1985. Carter is a member of the National Association of Col-legiate Directors of Athletics.

He and his wife, Karen, are the parents of two sons – Bryce (11) and Cole (6).

COMPLIANCEDelaware State University, by virtue of its membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), is responsible for ensuring complete compliance of all constituencies (i.e. university staff, student-athletes, alumni, fans, boosters and friends) with all NCAA and MEAC rules and regulations. Under NCAA rules, par-ents, alumni, fans and friends may be categorized as “representatives of athletics interests.”

Delaware State University strives for academic and athletic excellence. Pursuant to that goal is an on-going commitment to ethical conduct by all members of its staff and supporters. Even the simplest, inadvertent ac-tions on the part of a booster or supporter may jeopar-dize the eligibility of student-athletes and/or prospects and the compliance of the university with NCAA or MEAC regulations.

FOR MORE INFORMATION

Extra BenefitsExtra benefits (as defined by the NCAA) – “any special arrange-ment by an institutional employee or representative of athletics interest to provide a student-athlete a benefit not expressly authorized by NCAA legislation. Receipt of such a benefit is not considered an NCAA violation if that same benefit is generally available to the institution’s students or their relatives and/or friends or to a particular segment of the student body deter-mined on a basis unrelated to athletics ability.”

Employment Rules Delaware State University and its Director of Athletics ask that all boosters, prior to employing or arranging for the employ-ment of a prospect or enrolled student-athlete, check first with the DSU Athletics Department. The department is permitted to make arrangements for summer employment for prospects prior to their enrollment as freshmen and to enrolled student-athletes during summer and semester breaks. Accurate record keeping must be maintained regarding employment. Therefore, the Department of Athletics asks for your cooperation. * A booster is prohibited from providing employment transportation for prospects or student-athletes unless such transportation is available to all employees. * A booster is permitted to pay student-athletes em-ployed for work actually performed and at a rate commensurate with the going rate for similar services in the community or business.

WHAT YOU CAN’T DO: * A booster is prohibited from making in-person, on-or off-campus recruiting contacts, or written or tele-phone communication with a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardians. * A booster is prohibited from contacting any enrolled student-athlete at another institution for the purpose of encouraging transfer to Delaware State University and participation in its athletics program. If a prospect approaches a DSU booster regarding the athlet-ics program, please explain that NCAA rules prohibit such a discussion and suggest to the prospect that he/she contact the head coach of the sport for more infor-mation. * A booster is prohibited from contacting the pros-pect’s coach, principal or counselor for the purpose of obtaining information about the prospect. * A booster is prohibited from picking up film or transcripts from the prospect’s educational institution. * A booster is prohibited from entertaining a pros-pect and/or relatives and friends of a prospect at any site, either on-or off-campus. * In addition, a booster is prohibited from providing tickets at no or reduced cost to any Delaware State home or away athletic or non-athletic event for prospects, their relatives or friends. Only the DSU Department of Intercol-legiate Athletics can provide complimentary admissions to prospects and only for HOME events. * A booster is prohibited from paying or arranging for transportation for a prospect and/or relatives and friends of a prospect to visit campus. While it is permis-sible for a friend or neighbor to transport a high school or community college student who is NOT an athlete to the campus, NCAA regulations prohibit the activity for a prospect.

WHAT YOU CAN DO: * A booster is permitted to send newspaper clippings or any other information regarding a prospect to the respective Delaware State coaching staff. * A booster is permitted to attend high school or community college athletic(s) events. You simply can-not have any contact with prospects or relatives and/or friends. * A booster is permitted to continue established family relationships with friends and neighbors. Contact with sons and daughters of these families is permitted as long as they are not made for recruiting purposes. * A booster is permitted to have a telephone con-versation with a prospect ONLY if the prospect initiates the call. However, the booster is not permitted to have a recruiting conversation with the prospect and an institu-tional staff member cannot prearrange the call.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONINGMISSION STATEMENTDelaware State University Strength and Conditioning is committed to developing the total student-athlete through their experiences with-in a competitive training environment. This will be accomplished by focusing on reducing the risk of injury and maximizing athletic potential through individual evaluation and program design.

FACILITIESDelaware State University student-athletes benefit from a first-rate strength and conditioning facility. The first phase of the DSU’s $50 million Strength and Conditioning/Wellness Center/Student Union opened during the fall of 2008. A dedication ceremony for the facil-ity was attended by local and state elected officials and many former DSU student-athletes, including NFL standouts, Jamal Jackson and Darnerien McCants.

The strength and conditioning center is a 17,000 feet, state-of-the-art complex with all the amenities of a major college facility. The center is connected to the north end of the Memorial Hall main gymnasium and is solely for the use of Hornet student-athletes. The facility in-cludes a weight room, laundry room, offices for conditioning coaches and locker rooms for men’s and women’s basketball. The addition also includes a two-story entrance and lobby with ticketing area.

Phase II of the project involved the construction of a Wellness Center specifically for the general student population and the general pub-lic. This section is located on the southeast end of Memorial Hall and includes the renovation of an existing auxiliary basketball court and construction of a new basketball court as well as new offices, conces-sion space, men’s and women’s locker rooms and a swimming pool.

TRAINING PRINCIPLES 1. Reduce as many injuries as possible 2. Maximize athletic ability Exercise selection is based on the following criteria: | Ground-based | Multi-joint | Three-dimensional

EQUIPMENTSome of the equipment used in the strength and conditioning center include: 18 Power Lift racks and platforms 18 Power Lift power bars 18 Power Lift lever action benches 18 Uesaka training bars 18 sets of Uesaka bumper plates 18 Power Lift lever action benches 3 sets of 5-100lb Iron Grip dumbells 1 set of 105-150lb Iron Grip dumbells


memorial hall

Constructed in 1982, Memorial Hall Gymnasium has been home to the DSU men’s and women’s basketball programs as well as the volleyball team for over three decades. The facility was christened by the men’s basketball team on December 7, 1982 with a 96-92 double-overtime victory over U.S. International. Since then, the facility has been a part of many exciting con-tests.

DR. HARRY L. WILLIAMSDr. Harry L. Williams became the 10th

President in the 119-year history of Delaware State University on January 10, 2010, after serving as the institu-tion’s provost and vice president for academic affairs. Shortly after beginning his tenure as president, Dr. Williams convened a Blue Ribbon Commission that crafted a new vision statement and a set of core values to establish DSU as one of America’s most highly respected His-torically Black Colleges and Universi-ties (HBCUs). During the first eight months of his tenure, Dr. Williams held more than 200 meetings with constituencies, including White House officials, Governor Jack Markell, the Delaware Congressional delegation, state legis-lators, alumni groups, community or-ganizations and others. Dr. Williams also took two trips abroad to sign new collaborative agreements with institutions of higher education in China and South Africa. Under Dr. Williams’ leadership as provost, the University established a new general education program, a distance education strategic plan and a Middle States Monitoring Report plan and successfully completed searches that led to the hiring of a new dean of the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, a director of distance learning, a direc-tor of the honors program and an as-sociate vice president for sponsored programs. Prior to his arrival at DSU, Dr. Wil-liams served the University of North Carolina General Administration as interim associate vice president for academic affairs beginning in September 2007. He was elevated in

March 2008 to interim senior associ-ate vice president for academic and student affairs in which he focused on access and outreach for the 17 campuses of the UNC system. Dr. Williams also progressed from an associate director to associate vice chancellor posts in the areas of academic affairs, enrollment and diversity at Appalachian State Univer-sity from 1988 to 2000 and from 2004 to 2007. He served as interim director of admissions for North Carolina A&T University from 2000 to 2004. In addition to his experience within institutions of higher education, from 2002 to 2008 Dr. Williams was a national marketing and recruitment associate consultant with Noel-Levitz, the top national consultation firm for enrollment and management solu-tions in the country. In that capacity, Dr. Williams provided consultation expertise to 14 different institutions of higher education, including Dela-ware State University. Dr. Williams earned a Bachelor of Sci-ence in communication broadcasting and a Master of Arts in educational media, both from Appalachian State University. He earned an Ed.D. in educational leadership and policy analysis from East Tennessee State University. He is married to Dr. Robin S. Wil-liams, and they have two children: Austin, 15, and Gavin, 11.

Dr. Harry L. WilliamsPresident, Delaware State University

Now in its 120th year, Delaware State University has eagerly moved into the new millennium by embracing today’s new technology, assuming its role as an insti-tution of research and preparing its students for the global market.

Delaware State University’s beginnings date back to 1891, when the 58th General Assembly of the State of Delaware passed “An Act to Establish and Maintain a College for the Education of Colored Students in Agri-culture and the Mechanic Arts” by virtue of the Second Morrill Act of Congress approved Aug. 30, 1890. The University began enrolling students in early 1892 and offered courses of study in agriculture, chemical, classi-cal, engineering and scientific.

DOVERVisitors to Kent County, Delaware are pleasantly surprised by the variety of historical and cultural attractions, beauti-ful farmland and coastal scenery, and curious mix of old traditions and mod-ern high-tech cul-ture. In Kent County, visitors can find Amish buggies on city streets, delicate shorebirds and giant C-5 Galaxy military cargo planes, quiet museums and excit-ing NASCAR races, arts and antiques, Colonial history, slots and harness racing.

Dover, the capital of the First State, invites you to ex-perience life in a small American city – history, tax-free shopping and ambiance, all in a clean safe and friendly environment. You can spend the day shopping or strolling the quaint tree-lined streets to take in the city’s historic architecture, and spend the evenings at the theater or try-ing your luck at a gaming facility.

You can step back in time, literally, by standing on the very corner where in 1787, delegates to Delaware’s Consti-tutional Convention ratified the U.S. Constitution – thus

giving Delaware its “First State” moniker. The area’s collection of small towns as well as the natural beauty of places such as Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, provide hours of fun and adventure for visitors of all ages.

Dover’s central lo-cation in Delaware makes Kent County the perfect place for regional meetings and conventions, and a great overnight desti-nation for tours of the

state. Wilmington and the Brandywine Valley attractions are only one hour’s drive to the north. Delaware’s beach resorts, including Lewes, Bethany, and Rehoboth, are only one hour’s drive to the south. Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. are all within a two-hour drive. Kent County puts you right in the middle of the charm and excitement of “America at its Best.”

DOVER AIR FORCE BASEDover Air Force Base is important to the country’s defense, as it represents one-fourth of the nation’s strategic airlift capacity. Approximately 7,000 people are stationed at the DAFB. Dover is home to 36 giant C-5 Galaxy cargo planes, which are used to transport troops and equipment wherever they are needed around the world. The C-5 is the largest airplane in the U.S. military. Each plane is nearly as long as a football field, and could carry six motor coaches in its hold. The base cargo terminal known as the “Superport” is the largest anywhere in the US military, processing more tons of cargo than Kennedy airport in NY. The Air Mobility Command (AMC) Museum on the DAFB has over 24 aircraft on display, and features more multi-engine aircraft than the National Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC. Vet-eran aircraft on display include a C-47 “Gooney Bird” that dropped paratroopers over Normandy on D-Day.



DOVER INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAYDover Downs International Speedway hosts two NASCAR Sprint Cup/Nationwide Series race weekends each year. Dover has the largest seating capacity (140,000 seats) of any sports facility between New York and the Carolinas. The “Monster Mile” has challenged many professional driv-ers as they compete for the checkered flag. The concrete track with 24 degree banking is the first and only concrete superspeedway in NASCAR history, providing awesome racing action. NASCAR weekends at Dover are typically scheduled for the second weekend in May and the fourth weekend in September. Qualifying takes place on Friday, Nationwide Series drivers race on Saturday, and the Sprint Cup stars race on Sunday. Dover Downs, along with nearby Harrington Raceway, also features top flight harness racing.

ATTRACTIONSBombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge is a 16,000-acre ha-ven along the Delaware Bay coast east of Smyrna, with salt marshes, ponds, fields, and forests. Visitors come from all over the world to see the variety of migratory shorebirds and waterfowl that stop to feed at the refuge, an impor-tant feeding stop on the Atlantic Flyway.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITESThe Delaware Bay, just East of Dover, offers some of the best fishing and crabbing in the region. The bay serves as a breeding ground for many aquatic species, including horseshoe crabs. The bay is also a prime oyster ground. The area also features first-rate golf courses, bike trails, scenic paths, boating, state parks, conservation areas, lakes and greenways.

EVENTSThe Old Dover Days Festival has existed in one form or an-other in the capital city since 1933. It is held on The Green and Legislative Mall, two beautiful outdoor parks in the historic downtown district. Traditional elements and new components bring in thousands of visitors each year with attendance reaching 15,000. Old Dover Days is a celebra-tion of the First State’s Capital City and features a parade, maypole dancing, food court, re-enactors, walking tours, free entertainment and much more.

The Amish Bike Tour, African-American Festival, Delmarva Folk Festival, Jazz & Blues Festival, Diamond State BBQ Championship and Wyoming Peach Festival are other events that bring thousands to Central Delaware each year.

ARTS & CULTUREThe Greater Dover is rich in arts and cultural activities. The Schwartz Center for the Arts, of which DSU is a partner, is one of the premier performing arts venues in the state. From live performances, films and special events, to meet-ings and receptions, the Schwartz Center offers something for all tastes.

The Dover Symphony Orchestra is a regional organization founded in 1967 and comprised of professional and ama-teur musicians of all ages.

The Johnson Victrola museum is a tribute to Delaware’s native son, Eldridge Reeves Johnson, who founded the Victor Talking Machine Company in 1901. Exhibits include phonographs, recordings, memorabilia, trademarks, ob-jects, and paintings that highlight Mr. Johnson’s success-ful business enterprises and chronicle the development of the sound-recording industry.

In 2004, under the leadership of Board Chair Dr. Scott D. Miller (President of Wesley College), a strategic alliance was formed to partner the resources of Wesley College, Delaware State University, and The Friends of the Capi-tal Theater, to maximize usage and position the historic treasure as the premiere performing arts center south of Wilmington. In January 2007, the relationship was formal-ized with the three becoming equal partners in the opera-tion, management and programming of the Center.
