NEW ORLEANS — Southern University, the Southwestern Athletic Conference West Division champion, defeated Xavier University of Louisiana 9-0 Sunday in a women's dual at City Park Tennis Center.
The Lady Jaguars (9-5) won every set but one and picked up defaults at No. 3 doubles and No. 6 singles to defeat the shorthanded Gold Nuggets (3-14) for the second straight season.
Jo'Vonna Gaines, Carlista Mohammed and Kathryn Curtis won singles and doubles matches for Southern. Gaines and Mohammed defeated sisters Melissa and Nicole DeLoach 8-0 at No. 1 doubles, and Mohammed beat Amber Brown 6-0, 6-1 at No. 1 singles. Curtis and Lois Alexis improved their win streak to 10 matches with an 8-0 decision against Brown and Carmen Nelson at No. 2 doubles.
Nelson won her first set against Demetria Woods at No. 3 singles, but Woods rallied for a 2-6, 6-2, 1-0 (10-6) victory. Freshman Lisbeth Castaneda clinched the dual with her 6-3, 6-0 victory against Ashley McGill at No. 5 singles.
Xavier, an NAIA member, has dropped three consecutive duals — its second in as many days against an NCAA Division I opponent — and 12 of its last 13. Half of the Gold Nuggets' losses this season are against NCAA D-I.
Xavier's women and men will visit William Carey at 10 a.m. next Sunday. Southern will visit Nicholls State at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Alabama State University 2011 Football Schedule Announced
The Alabama State University Athletic Department has announced the 2011 football schedule for the reigning Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Eastern Division Champions. The Hornets will play five home games this season in Montgomery's Cramton Bowl. In addition to the traditional matchups, highlighted by the Magic City Classic in Birmingham and the Turkey Day Classic on Thanksgiving Day, the Hornets will travel to face Eastern Michigan of the Mid-American Conference.
“This game will accomplish several things for the program and the University,” Athletic Director Stacy Danley said. “It provides exposure and visibility for Alabama State in a unique geographical area that contains a high concentration of ASU alumni. It additionally gives us the opportunity to recruit a broader range of students and student athletes. As we continue to take ASU Athletics to new heights, it's not only important for us to play up but to win up. This contest also provides us with the opportunity to generate revenue.”
Former Hornet receiver Reggie Barlow begins his fifth season as head coach at his alma mater, leading his team into another tough nine-game conference slate of games as Alabama State comes off a SWAC Championship game appearance for the first time since winning the title in 2004.
“I think it's a good schedule,” Barlow said. “As a whole, it gives us exactly what we need when we go out and recruit players of what they will get an opportunity to go out and experience here. You get to play in front of large crowds like we do in the Magic City Classic and Turkey Day Classic, as well as the chance to play a Division I opponent in Eastern Michigan. The SWAC schedule is very competitive as it always is. We're excited about it.”
Alabama State will begin the season with back-to-back road games and three of its first four contests away from home in September. The Hornets will begin the season at SWAC foe Mississippi Valley State on Sept. 3 before venturing to Michigan to face the Eagles one week later in the first-ever meeting between the schools.
The Hornets will play their home opener Sept. 17 when Grambling State and new head coach Doug Williams come to the Cramton Bowl. ASU will end the season's opening month at Jackson State on Sept. 24.
Alabama State will face former offensive coordinator and new Alcorn State head coach Melvin Spears on Oct. 1 as the Braves come to Montgomery. The Hornets will then travel to Houston for a SWAC Championship Game rematch with defending champion Texas Southern, before coming home to host Prairie View on Oct. 15.
Following an open week, the Hornets will face Alabama A&M University in the 70th Magic City Classic, held at legendary Legion Field in Birmingham on Oct. 29.
ASU will play its final road game in 2011 on Nov. 5, when they travel to face the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff.
The Hornets will play their final SWAC game of the season at home against Southern in Cramton Bowl on Nov. 12. Following an open date, ASU will conclude the regular season with the 88th Turkey Day Classic against Tuskegee University on Nov. 26th.

Commentary: Dismissing Cole was only option for TSU program seeking legitimacy
Texas Southern University hired Johnnie Cole as its football coach because it wanted to win games. It hired Charles McClelland to be its athletic director for the same reason.
TSU also hired McClelland because it wanted to do things the right way. It fired Cole for the same reason. A college football program should be able to do both: win and do things the right way. Even TSU.
"The university's commitment to compliance is undaunted," McClelland said in a Friday statement that announced the school has parted ways with Cole because of major rules violations that, according to an athletic department official, will be revealed when a report from an NCAA investigation is released.
TSU interim football coach fires an assistant
Texas Southern interim football coach Kevin Ramsey said Saturday that associate head coach/quarterbacks coach Daryl Williams has been relieved of his duties.
Ramsey, the defensive coordinator who was named interim coach Friday after former coach Johnnie Cole was dismissed, informed Williams of the move shortly after being promoted by athletic director Charles McClelland.
Williams was hired by Cole in 2008 after serving as Alabama State’s director of football operations from 2005-07.

ASU Hornets scrimmage marks midway point of spring drills
MONTGOMERY - The Alabama State football team reached the midway point of its 2011 spring football season with an approximately 50+play scrimmage Saturday morning at Hornet Stadium.
"I was so excited last night I couldn't sleep thinking about getting out there and watching these guys play," Hornets' head coach Reggie Barlow said of his anticipation of Saturday's scrimmage. "It was fun to have them out there to see them tackling. They've been itching at the bit to do that."
The defense was impressive in the session, scoring on a safety while making four sacks and allowing just four-of-14 third down conversions and one touchdown. DE Charlie Long led the defense with six tackles, including four for loss, and two sacks.

Albany State: Spring In Their Step
ALBANY, GA — How good are these guys?
Really, just how much better can Albany State’s football team be next fall? It’s seems like it was 15 minutes ago when the Rams were making history, winning the SIAC and marching deep into the Division II playoffs in a season no one in the Good Life City will soon forget.
But could they be better? They sure looked like it Friday night during the annual Blue and Gold scrimmage spring game at the ASU Coliseum, where they made a little April history. That’s what quarterbacks coach Uyl Joyner called it after watching the offense (the Gold) beat the defense (the Blue), 37-19.
“It’s about time,’’ said Joyner, who smiled when he said it. “Defense always rules at Albany State. But the offense finally won. It’s history!’’

FAMU Green Team Dominates Orange in Scrimmage
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (Apr. 2) - The FAMU Rattlers Football Team put on their annual Orange & Green Game today in Bragg Memorial Stadium. Thousands of fans showed up for the preview of who would be the stars of the upcoming season. Coming off a season that ended on a six game winning streak and a share of the MEAC championship, fans were anxious to see where this team stood.
The green team won the scrimmage 40-0, as several first and second string players on both offense and defense were on the green team. Players looking to earn a role on the Rattlers' 2011 squad were on the orange team.
Austin Trainor clearly led the Rattler offense to its best success. Trainor passed for 129 yards, hitting on 12 of 21 attempts, and had one interception. Showing an uncharacteristic fleet-footedness, Trainor rushed for 51 yards and caught one pass for 11 yards.

FAMU defense comes up big in Orange and Green game
Whatever questions coach Joe Taylor might have had about the Florida A&M defense were answered during Saturday's Orange and Green game, which quarterback Austin Trainor used to put a little more separation between himself and Tyler Bass.
Trainor didn't have much of a problem engineering drives that produced points as the Green team defeated the Orange 40-0 at Bragg Stadium. But after the first quarter, the Green defense which is made up of first teamers took over.
Two of the seven touchdowns were scored by linebackers. Brandon Hepburn recovered a fumble in the end zone in the second quarter and the Green's ensuring touchdown came when...
Rattlers should have a potent running back corps
They may not yet remind anyone of legendary runners like Willie Galimore or Rashard Pompey, but the current FAMU running back corps cumulatively hopes to be as effective as the pair of running backs of yore.
James Owens and Eddie Rocker appear ready to take that responsibility as the two ran for a combined 127 yards and a touchdown in the annual Orange and Green game. Both had 11 carries, and Owens may have run for 83 yards, but the redshirt freshman also fumbled.

A Look Back: The day FAMU's Bob Hayes came home an Olympic champion
Joe Livingston, who did public relations for the city, came into the newsroom on the fourth floor of The Florida Times-Union building at 400 W. Adams St. with a release that said in two hours, the city parks and recreation department along with the Florida A&M band would stage a parade downtown to welcome home Bob Hayes.
The Matthew Gilbert High School and Florida A&M football and track athlete was to be welcomed home from the 1964 Summer Olympics in Japan, where he won two gold medals.
Executive Editor John S. Walters happened to be in his office and I took Livingston's release in to him. After glancing at it, Walters told me to put it in the Star Edition's mailbox. The Times-Union started the Star Edition on Jan. 1, 1950, to report on "news for and about the colored people." It was distributed to the city's African-American readers.

USA wins the 4 x 100m relay at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics in a then World Record time of 39.06 seconds. The improbable victory was made possible by the phenomenally swift anchor leg run by Robert Lee "Bullet Bob" Hayes (#702). His leg was quite possibly the fastest ever (8.50 seconds hand timed) according to many pundits. This relay race was Hayes' last race as a track and field athlete, as he permanently switched to NFL football (Dallas Cowboys) after the 64' Olympic games.

After opening the season on the road, the Thorobreds return home to take on Lincoln University (PA) on September 10 and then their first West Division game against Stillman College on September 17. On September 24 KSU travels to Owensboro, Ky. to play their final non-conference game of the season against Kentucky Wesleyan.
The 2011 season is highlighted by KSU's matchup against conference foe Albany State in the 2011 Circle City Classic at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Following their appearance in the Circle City Classic, the Thorobreds return to Frankfort for a homecoming, conference battle against Fort Valley State. Last year the Breds fell 12-14 to the Wildcats on Senior Day.
“This year's schedule is great for fans to witness Thorobred football on our home turf,” said Head Coach Wayne Dickens, who enters his third season as head coach at KSU. “It's always great to play in front of the home crowd and the new SIAC divisional format allows us to play more home games and not have to travel as far for away games.”
The remainder of the season alternates home and away games with KSU traveling to Miles College on October 15, returning home to play Tuskegee on October 22 and then hitting the road again on October 29 to battle Lane College. The Breds conclude the regular season with a home game against Morehouse College on November 5.
The Thorobreds wrapped up the 2010 season with a record of 3-8 overall and 2-7 in the SIAC, but they are focused on building upon their strong recruiting class. “We had a successful recruiting season and now it is time to see the fruits of our labor,” said Dickens. “We are one team, with one vision and that's to win, first our division and then the conference championship.”

NCCU Football Adds Kicker, QB to 2011 Recruiting Class
DURHAM, N.C. – North Carolina Central University has added a place-kicker and a quarterback to its 2011 football recruiting class, bringing the total number of signees to 28 under new Eagles head coach Henry Frazier III.
The additions are Oleg Parent, a 6-0, 170-pound place-kicker from Lake Forest, Calif., and Terry Williams, a 6-5, 205-pound quarterback from Elizabeth City, N.C.
Parent, who was born in St. Petersburg, Russia and came to the United States four years ago, was a place-kicker and punter at Trabuco Hills High School. He kicked seven field goals and 29 extra-points for the Mustangs as a senior, while also blasting 35 of his 50 kickoffs for touchbacks, to earn all-county second team honors. As a punter, he averaged 42 yards per boot, including a long of 73 yards.
Williams, a two-sport standout who led Northeastern High School to its first state 2-AA football championship game in 2010, set single-season school passing records with 2,473 yards and 23 touchdowns through the air as a senior. He garnered all-conference honors as the Eagles posted 13 consecutive victories to finish the campaign 13-3. On the basketball court, Williams averaged 18.9 points and 9.0 rebounds for Northeastern in 2010-11 to repeat as a first-team all-conference pick after being tagged as conference player of the year as a junior on the hardwood.

FAMU's Scott preaches his sermon
LLOYD, FL — After he'd been on the pulpit at Mount Zion AME Church for about 10 minutes, sweat began to roll down Padric Scott's face.
"Let God step in and show out," he urged the congregation that gathered last Sunday to hear him preach his trial sermon at the small church located about 20 miles east of Tallahassee.
Scott, a defensive tackle on the Florida A&M football team, kept his listeners spell-bound. His father, Edward, a prominent Tallahassee dentist who also is the church's minister, sat at his left and hardly batted an eye. Coach Joe Taylor, sitting at his left, seemed captivated. "We make a big deal out of it, especially when...

FAMU players set for the spring game
Players hoping to be starters or at least secure a spot on the three-deep depth chart for the Florida A&M football team will get their job interviews today in the annual Orange and Green game at Bragg Stadium.
The questions will come in the form of plays from coach Joe Taylor and his staff. The players will have to respond by executing on the field. "I've told them that all of them will be evaluated and we'd have it on film," Taylor said.
The attraction, of course, will be the quarterback matchup between designated starter Austin Trainor and Memphis transfer Tyler Bass. They will go head-to-head in the first quarter, with Trainor starting for the Green team, while Bass will be the one under center for the Orange team.

HU Lacrosse Buries A Tough Loss On The Road
HIGH POINT, N.C. – After a tough series of road matches, the Howard lacrosse team fell to High Point, marking their fourth consecutive National Lacrosse Conference loss. Although the Lady Bison (3-8, 0-4 NLC) scored only one goal in the match, the team has one more chance left to gain a win in their six-game road campaign before returning to the nation’s capital on April 9 against fellow NLC opponent Jacksonville. Cynithia Smalls was the only member of the Bison to post a score in the 19-1 defeat. This match marked the first game all season that last year’s NLC Player of the Year Desiree Cox left the field without at least one goal. Cox managed to be a part of the Howard’s lone scoring play however, as she was credited with the assist to Smalls.
Smalls’ goal came in the first half with 16:27 left on the clock. Prior to her score, High Point had tallied six goals within the opening 12 minutes. Following Howard’s goal, the Panthers went on a 7-0 run to lead the Lady Bison, 13-1 by halftime.
Goalkeeper Amber Meeks tabbed six saves for the Lady Bison in the first half.
Howard was unable to outpace the Panthers in shots as HPU posted 31 compared to HU’s ten. Recording the most shots for the Bison was Cox with five. The Panthers also held the advantage in groundballs over Howard (25-18). Leading HU with the most groundballs was Courtland Lackey with four.
The Lady Bison were kept out of the net in the second half and were unable to slow down High Point’s offensive momentum as they went on to score six additional goals by the close of the game.
The Howard lacrosse team will cruise into their sixth straight match on the road against Davidson at 1 p.m. and will look to gain their first win away from Greene Stadium this season. For more updates on the Howard lacrosse team, visit Howard-Bison.com.

Bahamas star Russell doing it all for Jackson State Tigers
Jackson, MS - Desmond Russell arrived in Jackson from his homeland of the Bahamas in August 2009, toward the end of Mississippi's sweltering summer. In his first trip to the Deep South, a couple of things surprised the Jackson State pitcher.One: "It was kind of cold. It will be cold one moment, and it will be hot right away." Two: "There's no conch."
Born and raised on a tropical island, Russell had to get accustomed to Mississippi's sporadic temperature drops - even in the summer - and its lack of the popular Bahamian sea snail dish. But, Russell seems to be fitting in quite nicely here.

Five keys for NSU football team this season
The way Norfolk State's football schedule has worked out the past three years, the team has built hope heading into the next season thanks to late runs against the bottom of the MEAC.The Spartans are looking to show the strides made under new offensive coordinator Joe Blackwell are legit - and not the product of inferior competition - and that they're ready to join the upper level of the conference.
Doing that will require the team to answer five questions as Norfolk State heads into the start of spring practice today.
Who will the new hogs be?
NORFOLK, Va. — Norfolk State’s 2011 spring football practice is scheduled to get underway Friday with a late afternoon session at the NSU practice field.
The Spartans are slated to spread their 15 practices over a three-week period. There will not be a typical spring football game, but rather several smaller intrasquad scrimmages throughout spring practice.
NSU is scheduled to return 14 starters off of last fall’s 6-5 team which became the first team in the program’s Division I history to record back-to-back winning seasons. Included among the returnees are quarterback Chris Walley, who completed an NSU single-season record 61.1 percent of his passes last year; and the top five tacklers off the Division I Football Championship Subdivision’s No. 6 defense, led by linebacker Corwin Hammond (76 tackles, 11 TFL) and nose guard Josh Turner (46 tackles, 12 TFL).

UMES Hawks Earn Eighth Straight Bid To The NCAA Tournament
INDIANPOLIS, IN - The eight-team field competing for the 2011 National Collegiate Women's Bowling Championship was announced Wednesday by the NCAA Women's Bowling Committee and the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) will make their eighth straight trip to the event.
"We are very excited," said head coach Sharon Brummell. "This is a very tough field, very strong and we have a lot of work ahead of us to get to our goal of another NCAA championship."
The championship field consists of all at-large participants, including Arkansas State, Central Missouri, Fairleigh Dickinson, Kutztown, Nebraska, Sam Houston State Vanderbilt and the Hawks.
Videographer: UMESHAWKSATHLETICS; Feature story about UMES senior bowler Kristina Frahm from her hometown.
UMES is one of three teams in the field to have made the field in all eight tournaments since the NCAA offered championship starting in 2004; the others are Nebraska and Central Missouri.
The Lady Hawks are coming off of winning the 2011 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Championship earlier this month in Greensboro, N.C. The last conference title for the Hawks was 2008, the same year they won the National Championship. UMES has three players who were on that squad, Maria Rodriguez (Ibague Tolima, Colombia), Kristina Frahm (Oswego, Ill.) and Martha Perez (Bogota, Colombia). That trio has piled up numerous accolades during their time at UMES, those include a combined seven All-American honors, 11 All-Conference honors and a pair of MEAC Outstanding Performer honors.
"I have mixed feelings," said Perez. "I am excited to go again, but sad that it will be my last NCAA Championship. It is win or go home and we want to go out with a win in our last NCAAs. We have been winning a lot this year, we know we can win, we just have to go out and do what we know."
Printable Bracket
Detroit Mercy and the Detroit Metro Sports Commission will play host to the championship, which will be held April 14-16 at Skore Lanes in Taylor, Mich. Tickets can be purchased by calling (313) 291-6220 before to the championship.
Fairleigh Dickinson captured the 2010 National Collegiate Women’s Bowling Championship at Brunswick Zone Carolier Lanes in North Brunswick, N.J.

Dover, Del. -- Delaware State University head football coach Kermit Blount will lead his first spring football camp with the Hornets beginning tomorrow (Friday). Blount says he expects about 80 players to participate in spring drills, including up to 12 newcomers."This year's spring camp is critical for our program as we introduce new systems to our players," said Blount, who was introduced as the new head coach of the Hornets on February 4. "The camp will also give our coaching staff a better opportunity to evaluate the conditioning and skill of the players." According to Blount, everyone has a clean slate heading into camp.
"As far as I'm concerned, everyone is fighting for a job," Blount said. "I believe the players understand that and are looking to make a good impression on the new coaching staff. We have to make every minute count as we look to rebuild this team."
