HAMPTON, Virginia -- — Connell Maynor has a new challenge, and success might take longer than it did at his last stop.When Maynor started his head-coaching career at Division II Winston-Salem State in 2010, building a solid program seemed to take only weeks.
At Division I Hampton, the transformation might take longer as Maynor deals with different recruiting rules, a much deeper conference and a bit more pressure.
On Thursday night, Hampton was hoping to catch talented N.C. A&T off guard in a nationally-televised game. But A&T, one of the MEAC’s top teams under Coach Rod Broadway, prevailed 31-14.
“There’s a lot of talent in the MEAC, and there are no days off,” Maynor said. “There’s just no place on the schedule in this league where you can circle a date on the calendar and say that’s a sure win.”
