Bethune-Cookman Wildcats Football Inks 23 to NLIs on Signing Day

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida  --  Bethune-Cookman University inked 23 young men to National Letters of Intent to play football for the Wildcats in 2013 on Weds., Feb. 6 as part of National Signing Day for collegiate football. The Wildcats held a live announcement show on BCUathletics.com through the CatEye Network from 10-11 a.m. in the Harold V. Lucas Hall of Fame inside the Larry R. Handfield Athletic Training Center.

B-CU head coach Brian Jenkins was excited about the incoming class, and he was quick to praise the job his staff did in getting this large amount of student-athletes to come to Daytona Beach and he Maroon and Gold Nation.

"The class we have this year is tremendous, and my staff did a great job getting out and really developing great relationships with the young men that signed here - and even with those that we lost to other schools," said Jenkins during his press conference Wednesday afternoon.

"When you look at the amount of kids we signed and the talent we have coming in, it's going to build competition - and that's exactly what we need here at B-CU in all of our positions on the gridiron - competition."

The faxes began rolling in at 8 a.m. for the Wildcats, and the group of 23 is one of the largest, and said to be one of the most talented, in school history.

The Wildcats focused a lot of their attention along the offensive and defensive lines, picking up a total of nine linemen. They also added depth at the quarterback position as they signed two more true quarterbacks, in addition to another that can play the position. Six wide receivers entered the mix on signing day, with the addition of four running backs and a kicker/punter.

 

In all, the Cats kept their lock on the football-rich state of Florida as they signed 17 players from the "Sunshine State", adding two from Pennsylvania, three from Georgia and another from Tennessee. Only four players are coming from two-year institutions, while 19 are high school student-athletes.

"I am just very happy about this signing class," continued Jenkins. "We really filled some holes in key areas, and we are continuing to build a team that will fight for not only MEAC titles, but help us continue to reach towards our goal of winning a national championship as well."

Bethune-Cookman Announces 2013 Football Schedule

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida  --  Bethune-Cookman University officially released the 2013 football schedule on Wednesday, Feb. 6, as announced by B-CU Director of Athletics Lynn W. Thompson.

The 12-game regular season slate is the first of its kind for B-CU since 2002.

Under the direction of head coach Brian Jenkins, recently completing his third year at the helm in Daytona Beach, the 2012 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference champion Wildcats will host five games inside Larry Kelly Field at Municipal Stadium on the 2013 slate.

"This year's schedule will definitely be a challenging one, but it's one we're all looking forward to," said B-CU head coach Brian Jenkins. "Our Director of Athletics, Lynn Thompson, has done a tremendous job in making sure we have a strong schedule, and we still have another game to add. So, it's going to be one that all Wildcat fans will enjoy."

The 2013 campaign opens with a trip to Tennessee State on Sunday, Sept. 1, as the Wildcats meet the Tigers for the John Merritt Classic at L.P. Field in Nashville, Tenn. The Tigers took a hard-fought 21-14 game from the Wildcats last year in front of a near-capacity crowd in Daytona Beach. The Cats then return to Daytona Beach for their home-opener against the Virginia Union Panthers on Sept. 7.

The following weekend, B-CU continues its new tradition of playing at least one BCS opponent as the Wildcats travel to Miami to face the FIU Panthers on Sept. 21. Network television will determine the kickoff time for that game up to 10 days out. B-CU will conclude the month of September with a game to be determined by next week.

"We have a big announcement coming with the open game we have right now on September 28," said Lynn W. Thompson. "Our fans need to stay tuned to BCUathletics.com because it's definitely going to be big news that they'll want to read about."

The Cats stay on the road for the first two weeks in October as they open Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) play at Delaware State (Oct. 5) and Howard (Oct. 12). The games against the Hornets and Bison see resurgence in contests against those teams as they replace North Carolina A&T and Morgan State, respectively. It'll be the first time in two years B-CU has faced Howard and Delaware State.

Bethune-Cookman returns home to host Savannah State for the Third Annual Biker Classic on Oct. 19, followed by one of the biggest Homecoming weekends in recent history as the Cats welcome South Carolina State to Municipal Stadium on Oct. 26. Both of those games have kickoff set at 4 p.m.

B-CU hits the road to open its November slate with a trip to North Carolina Central (Nov. 2), before returning home for a pair of games against Virginia Tidewater-area foes Norfolk State (Nov. 9) and Hampton (Nov. 16), respectively. The month closes with the annual Florida Blue Florida Classic against Florida A&M at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando on Nov. 23.

Six freshmen join UMES Hawks baseball for 2013

PRINCESS ANNE, Maryland  -  University of Maryland Eastern Shore head baseball coach Pedro Swann will have six freshmen on the team for the 2013 season, bolstering the pitching and infield ranks.

Of the six, four will serve primarily as pitchers for the team, while the other two will man the left side of the infield. "This class is going to greatly help our team," says Swann, "I am excited to see these players grow and develop as their careers progress."

J.P. Black - RHP - R/R - Elkton, Md. - North East H.S.
Black joins the Maroon and Gray after being an all-around athlete at North East High School. He lettered in baseball, soccer and cross country with the Indians, serving as a relief pitcher for the school. He also is a strong student, graduating in the top five percent of his class.

"He is a very hard working guy, he gives you 100% everyday. He has very good command of his pitches, especially his changeup, and I see him as a middle relief/setup guy and a future starter."

 Connor Breslin - IF - R/R - Saylorsburg, Pa. - Pius X H.S.
Breslin comes to Princess Anne after a strong career at Pius X High School and is expected to compete in the left side of the infield. Batting .416 in his senior year, he competed with the Lehigh Valley Baseball Academy and helped the Royals win a pair of district championships.

"He is one of our best defensive infielders with great hands and a cannon for an arm. He will develop his hitting and he has great upside."

James DiBuo - RHP - R/R - Bishopville, Md. - Stephen Decatur H.S.
DiBuo remains on the Eastern Shore to play for UMES, serving as a pitcher for Stephen Decatur High School. Earning sportsmanship awards in his sophomore and junior years, he also played for American Legion Post 94 in summer ball.

"He has a strong work ethic, and that makes him better everyday. He will likely come out of the bullpen and his ceiling is very high."

Mike Escanilla - IF - S/R - Waldorf, Md. - North Point H.S.
Escanilla will fight for a place on the left side of the UMES infield after being one of the top players in southern Maryland. Helping North Point High School finish ranked 18th in the state last year, he finished as an all-county player the last three years and earned all-conference honors as a senior.

"He reminds me of Jerry Hairston, very athletic and quick plus will do whatever he needs to do: drop a bunt, make a fielding play, steal a base. He is a double threat as a switch hitter and will be a great player."

Chris Lopez - RHP - R/R - Vineland, N.J. - Vineland H.S.
Lopez will serve as the Garden State's representative to UMES after being a great all-around baseball player at Vineland High School. Earning all-area and all-conference honors as a senior, his final season he led Cape-Atlantic League with a 1.90 ERA in over 50 innings and batted .395.

"He has one of the livest arms on our team for a small guy. With his great fastball he should be a reliever this season, and he will be a future starter."

Will Turley - RHP/IF - R/R - Greensboro, Md. - North Caroline H.S.
Turley suits up for the Hawks after being one of the best pitchers on the Eastern Shore. At North Caroline High School, he helped the team win a state championship in 2011 and was an All-Bayside Conference player as a senior. He finished his career with a 10-0 record and hit .375 his senior season.

"His pitching style is controlling; everything he throws moves, including his fastball. His role will be middle relief, and he has a good bat so he can play third base."

SC State Football Signs 15 Prospects

COACH BUDDY POUGH

ORANGEBURG, South Carolina  --  South Carolina State, Wednesday, announced the signing of fifteen (15) football prospects to national letters. Only four of the signees are from South Carolina. Six are from Georgia, four from Florida and one from North Carolina.

The four Palmetto signees included Shrine Bowl running back Harold Atkinson of Carolina Forest High in Conway, QB Kylen Binn of Columbia, a North-South All-Star Game selection, and LB Michael Wamer of St. George, a High School Sports Report (HSSR) All-State performer and a Times and Democrat newspaper Elite 11 pick, and offensive lineman Justin Evans of Florence.

The Bulldogs were looking to strengthen their defense and add some speed on offense, according to SC State head coach Buddy Pough.

“We did well generally on defense and really helped ourselves on the defensive front”, Pough said. The defensive people we signed up front are really athletic and good solid players. We got two linebackers that are really special and a good group of defensive backs as we were really in need of safeties and corners.

“We also signed two wide receivers that are both skilled guys and can do a lot after catching the ball,” Pough continued. “And, we signed a tall quarterback we are excited about and a tight end that's really athletic and hard-nosed.”

Defensive end Victor Ismael of Miami, whose dad played at SC State in the mid 80s and currently an assistant strength coach for the Miami Hurricans, and Trayshaun Watkins of Mooresboro, NC, lead the defensive linemen Pough spoke of.

The talented linebackers are Dayshawn Taylor of Lincolnton, Ga., and Wamer; Kolby Gray of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. and Devondre Powell head the list of defensive backs.

Others lauded by Pough were receivers Chris Trimmings of Brunswick, Ga., and Bernard Morrison of Stone Mountain, Ga.; tight end Zane Fields of Jonesboro, Ga., Binn, the quarterback of Columbia and only offensive lineman among the signees, Justin Evans of Florence.

Hampton football announces 2013 signing class

HAMPTON, Virginia  --  Hampton University head football coach Donovan Rose announced his 2013 class of signees on Wednesday, a slate of five players that includes one student-athlete from the Commonwealth of Virginia.

“We’re committed to continuing to recruit character guys, and I think this year’s class fits that mold,” Rose, coming into his fifth season, said. “We’re anxious to see these kids come in and compete and begin working toward getting back to where we need to be as a program.”

This year’s signees:

-Bryan Bailey (6-2, 185, QB, Woodruff, S.C., Woodruff HS): was named All-Region and All-Conference, as well as earning WSP Player of the Week honors. He chose Hampton over Western Carolina.

-David Holley (5-11, 225, LB, Stockton, Calif., San Joaquin Delta College): was All-State in high school and played in the Dade-Broward All-Star Game. He was also a junior college All-American, recording 96 tackles (15 for loss), two sacks, and three forced fumbles. Holley chose Hampton over a number of schools, including MEAC rivals Howard, Bethune-Cookman, and South Carolina State.

-Blake Porter (6-3, 285, OL, Charlotte, N.C., West Charlotte HS): was an All-Conference and All-Region selection. He was also named Student-Athlete of the Year and was a member of the Charlotte Touchdown Club.

-Paul Robertson (5-10, 204, RB, Richmond, Va., LC Bird HS): rushed for 2,935 yards this past season and was named VHSL Player of the Year. He earned All-District, All-Metro, All-Region, and All-State honors. Robertson chose Hampton over such schools as Delaware and Massachusetts.

-Tyric Robinson (5-11, 170, WR, Columbia, S.C., Ridge View HS): was named All-Conference and holds the South Carolina record for longest touchdown reception at 99 yards. He chose Hampton over Alcorn State and Coastal Carolina.

“Our recruits this year were very need-specific,” Rose said. “We still have a few more slots left open, but I feel like we’re in good shape in being a little more selective.”

The Pirates will open the 2013 season on Aug. 29, when they head to Macomb, Ill. to take on Western Illinois. For more information on Hampton University football, please call the Office of Sports Information at (757) 727-5811, or visit the official Pirates website at www.hamptonpirates.com.

SAU Falcons Ranked No. 1 In NCAA Division II Men's Indoor Track and Field Poll

Legendary Head Coach George Williams
Has  His Men's Team Ranked No. 1
 in the Nation.

RALEIGH, North Carolina  --  Saint Augustine's University took over the top spot in the NCAA Division II Men's Indoor Track & Field Rankings, which was released by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association on Tuesday, Feb. 5, 2013.

The Falcons head the men's poll for the first time since the third week of the 2011 season. They have 203.23 points in the computer-based rankings to lead Ashland (188.07 points) and Grand Canyon (170.03). Adams State, ranked No. 1 last week, fell to fourth with 128.70 points.

This was the first week the preseason times, marks and scores were removed from the ranking formula. It helped the Falcons move up two spots from No. 3 last week despite being idle this past weekend. The Falcons put on scintillating performances in the sprints at the Winston-Salem State Open Jan. 20 and the Penn State National Invitational Jan. 25-26 to put themselves in position to grab the top ranking.

“We accomplished our goal of earning the No. 1 ranking,” said iconic Head Coach George Williams, whose St. Aug men's and women's teams have combined to win 31 NCAA indoor and outdoor titles. “Now our goal is to win the national championship.”

The Falcons continued their hold on the Atlantic Region rankings. Their 466.22 points lead the regional poll followed by Shippensburg (345.78) and Slippery Rock (247.47).

Winston-Salem State Hires Henderson as Head Volleyball Coach

Coach Andi Henderson

WINSTON-SALEM, NC – The Winston-Salem State Lady Rams volleyball program welcomes its new leader with the hiring of head coach Andi Henderson. She will make her head coaching debut at Winston-Salem State after assistant coaching stints at her alma mater, Catawba College and nearby Greensboro Colleges. She will take the reins of the Lady Rams program immediately and will look to take it to new heights.

“I am really excited about the opportunity that WSSU has given me. I want to especially thank Mr. William ‘Bill’ Hayes and Mrs. Tonia Walker for giving me the opportunity to lead this program,” WSSU head volleyball coach Andi Henderson said. “I am excited to get in the gym for training and to start moving this program in a different direction.”

Henderson joins the Winston-Salem State staff after spending three seasons at Catawba College. Prior to joining the Catawba staff, she served as an assistant coach at nearby Greensboro College. Henderson began her coaching career in 2008 when she coached for the Cherry Point Women’s Military Team. As a coach, Henderson has guided the development of many top players, including producing two all-conference players at Greensboro College and five all-conference players at Catawba, including two NCAA Division II All-Southeast Region players. In 2011, she was a part of an Indians staff that took the team to the second round of the NCAA Division II Southeast Regional Tournament.

As a player, Henderson was a three-year all-conference performer at Catawba College, graduating in 2008 with a degree in sports management. During her career, she set school records for assists in a match (83), per set average (12.94), and in a career (4,119). She also ranked second for assists in a season with 1,605.

Henderson is no stranger to Lady Rams volleyball as she earned a spot on the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) All-Rookie team as a freshman with the Lady Rams. She will take over a Lady Rams program that posted an 11-24 overall record last season, but finished third in the CIAA Southern Division, just one game out of second place in the division for a second straight season. The Lady Rams reached the semifinal round of the 2012 CIAA Volleyball Championship Tournament.

Henderson and the Lady Rams will begin spring training and preparation for the upcoming season, immediately. For more information on Lady Rams volleyball, contact the WSSU Office of Athletic Media Relations at (336) 750-2143 or log on to www.WSSURams.com.

NCCU Eagles Add 13 Football Recruits on National Signing Day

DURHAM, North Carolina -- North Carolina Central University head football coach Henry Frazier III identified two positions of need for the 2013 recruiting class, defensive line and wide receiver, and those needs were met during Wednesday’s college football signing day.

Frazier announced the addition of 13 recruits, including seven defensive linemen and four wide receivers, along with an offensive lineman and a tight end. The seven defensive linemen boast an average size of 6-2, 259 pounds.

“We knew we needed defensive linemen and wide receivers,” said Frazier. “That was our focus.

“We are definitely pleased with this class,” he added. “It’s a small class in numbers, but that’s just an indication of us signing two large classes in our first two classes. We were able to keep those kids in school and have a program in place where we are now able to add pieces as we see fit.”

Of the newcomers, three are from North Carolina, three from Virginia, three from South Carolina, two from Florida, and one each from Maryland and New York.

The recruiting class includes 10 high school seniors and three transfers, including two NCAA Division I-FBS transfers and one from a junior college.

NCCU kicks off the 2013 season on Aug. 31 at Duke University in the “Bull City Gridiron Classic.”

Woods 31 Points Lift Talladega Tornadoes over Dillard Bleu Devils

NEW ORLEANS  --  Dillard entered tonight's game prepared to showcase its seniors, but instead it was Talladega's Phillip Wood who stole the show and put on a shooting clinic as he led his Tornadoes to a 68-59 victory over the Bleu Devils on senior night. Wood buried six three pointers and finished with a game-high 31 points and added 12 boards in the victory.

Dillard (2-16 overall, 1-8 GCAC) was led by freshman Tyrone Williams who finished with a team-high 23 points, six rebounds, two steals and one assist in 35 minutes of action. Williams hit 9-of-12 shots from the field and nailed all four of his free throw attempts for Dillard.

The Bleu Devils had a solid first half and led 27-26 at the half, but the Tornadoes turned up the heat as they outscored Dillard 42-32 in the second half.

Senior Terry Church had a quiet game and finished with only two points in 11 minutes before he suffered an ankle injury which kept him sidelined for the remainder of the game. Dillard's only other senior, Kelth Cameron, picked up three first half fouls and was forced to sit out for most of the game.

Freshman Jarrain Jenkins had a solid game for the Bleu Devils and scored 18 points and grabbed six boards while sophomore Jordan Kilson finished with seven points, two rebounds, five assists, five turnovers and one steal in 32 minutes of action.

On Saturday, February 9, Dillard continues conference play as they travel to Nashville to face Fisk University. Tip-off is at 5:00 p.m.

It's a pair of 11's for Xavier teams in NAIA top-25 rankings

NEW ORLEANS -- Both Xavier University of Louisiana basketball teams were 11th in the NAIA Division I Coaches' Top 25 polls announced Tuesday afternoon.

Since the start of 2000-01 season -- that's the extent of the poll data in XU's sports information archives -- it's the first time that both the Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets were 11th or higher in the same week. It's also the first time during that period that both XU teams possessed the same ranking in a particular week.

There's something else the Rush and Nuggets share: continued appearances in the top 25. For the XU men, it's their 19th consecutive appearance and their 32nd in the last 33 polls. The XU women's staying power is even stronger -- this is their 39th consecutive top-25 appearance, a streak which began in the final week of January 2010.

Xavier is one of three schools with both basketball teams among the NAIA's top 11. The others are Lee (men No. 2, women No. 7) and Westmont (men No. 6, women No. 8). Six other schools -- Westminster (Utah), Bethel (Tenn.), Faulkner, Rogers State, MidAmerica Nazarene and Georgetown (Ky.) -- have both teams in the top 25.

The Gold Nuggets made the biggest upward move, three places, in this week's women's poll. The ranking is their highest in four weeks and the same as their preseason position. The XU men moved up two places to equal their highest ranking of the season; they've improved eight spots since the preseason poll.

Unbeaten Columbia (Mo.) is the top-ranked men's team for the fourth consecutive week. The women of Freed-Hardeman and Oklahoma City share No. 1 and replaced Lubbock Christian, which fell to fourth after its second loss to Oklahoma City this season.

Both XU teams concluded brief home stands Monday. Both will be on the road for the next four games before playing their home finales Feb. 23 against Dillard in the Crosstown Classic at XU's new Convocation Center.

The Gold Rush are 21-4 overall and 8-1 in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference to lead the league by two games. The Gold Nuggets are 19-4 and 7-2 and share second place in the GCAC with Talladega. They trail SUNO by one game.
Xavier's next opponent will be Philander Smith on Saturday in Little Rock, Ark. The Gold Rush will play the 24th-ranked Panthers at noon, and the Gold Nuggets will play the Lady Panthers at 2 p.m. The Nuggets are closing in on a 12th consecutive 20-victory season and their 20th in 21 seasons.
