Power of positive thinking: A&T turns around dreadful start with 4-game win streak

GREENSBORO, North Carolina -- Just who are these guys, anyway?

Are they the bad team that opened the season with seven consecutive losses, including one at home against a Division III team?

Or are they the very good team that reeled off four wins in a row and sits atop the MEAC standings?

The answer is probably somewhere in between, but N.C. A&T coach Cy Alexander says his Aggies (4-7, 2-0 MEAC) know the beginning of a season does not dictate the end.

“There are no championships won in November,” Alexander says. “Championships are won in January, February and March. At no point did we doubt we were going to be a good basketball team. But, yeah, we were concerned.”

The Aggies still have a long way to go, but they take a four-game winning streak to Greenville for a game against East Carolina at 2 p.m. Sunday.
