SALISBURY, North Carolina – For the first time in school history, and following a season in which the men’s team repeated as CIAA champions, Livingstone’s men’s and women’s basketball squads have been picked to finish first in the Southern Division of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

The men’s team, led by head coach James Stinson, Jr., finished the 2014-2015 season 19-10,
winning the regular season title en route to a second, consecutive CIAA championship. The Blue
