In 2007-08, appalachian state University men’s basketball claimed its second-straight southern Confer-ence North Division championship with a 13-7 record in league action and an 18-13 overall record. the title came on the heels of the record-setting 2006-07 season that saw asU storm through the soCon with a 15-3 soCon mark and a school-record 25 victories. Over the course of the two championship seasons, the Mountaineers posted a combined 43-21 record and won 74 percent of their southern Conference games (28-10). Both marks were the second-best in the league during that time frame. Over the past three seasons, asU is tied with College of Charleston for the second-most league wins over the span, at 37. asU’s 2007-08 title was its ninth soCon crown in school history and the fifth time the apps have claimed a soCon Championship in back-to-back seasons. Head coach Buzz Peterson won three titles in his previous four seasons at the helm. His three titles tie him for the most in program history.

Considered one of the finest on-campus basketball facilities in the southern Conference and southeast, the Holmes Convocation Center provides the Mountaineers with a home team advantage, both on and off the floor. this is the ninth season that the apps have called the Holmes Center home. the arena opened Nov. 17, 2000, when appalachian entertained No. 7 North Carolina. the highest-ranked team to ever play in Boone, North Carolina defeated host appalachian 99-69 before a capacity crowd of 8,325 spectators. asU claimed its first win in its new home two days later with an 86-71 triumph over Robert Morris. In an ever-evolving locker room area, the team’s space adjusts with the needs of the team. the team area provides comfort and convenience for the student-athletes when not in the classroom or on the basketball floor. the general locker room area consists of a team conference room, containing leather couches, tradition-al coaching boards on the wall and a video projector. along with the video projector is a state-of-the-art digital video system that includes DVD and surround-sound speakers. Directly adjacent to the player’s area is the coaches’ lounge and locker area. the traditional locker room area provides full-length lockers and individual mirrors for each member of the team, as well as student-managers. the standard facilities complement the team area. the team also has the full use of four networked work stations, providing computer capabilities in a more relaxed setting. all told, behind the 10-foot locker room doors are more than 1,900-square feet dedicated to the Mountain-eer men’s basketball team.

the Mountaineers’ already superb collection of facilities was enhanced even more with the addition of the renovated Varsity Gym practice facility in the summer of 2008. the venerable arena, which served as the home of the Moun-taineers from 1968-2000, received a facelift and conversion into a fully functional practice facility for the basketball squad. In addition to a new hardwood surface, the floor was re-configured to give the apps four full-sized courts and nearly 20,000 square feet of dedi-cated practice space. the four courts, in addition to eight new goals, gives asU one of the largest and most-dynamic practice facilities in the nation. the ample space allows the Mountaineers to make the most-efficient use of their practice time for both team and individual workouts.

Few programs play a role as essential to the continued success of the Mountaineers as sports medicine. asU sports medicine provides preventa-tive care that helps student-athletes avoid injury and post-injury treatment that allows student-athletes to recover as quickly as possible. Under the direction of head athletic trainer Jason Robey, Appalachian sports medicine has four spacious facilities at its disposal in the appa-lachian athletics Complex, Holmes Center, Varsity Gym and Owens Fieldhouse. each athletic training room is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to ensure the health and welfare of the student athlete. the sports medicine staff is bolstered by one of the finest athletic training education programs in the nation. the program has been in existence for more than 25 years, was one of the first Nata approved programs and is accredited by Caate.

appalachian values academic excellence as well as athletic achievements and insists individuals are students first and ath-letes second. academic services for student-athletes helps students priori-tize academics by providing a comprehensive support system throughout the college career. the staff includes senior associate Director, kim sherill, academic adviser, Pierre Banks, along with NCaa Continuing Eligibility specialist, Jonathan Reeder and CHAMPS/Life Skill Coordinator, erin Justice, who help to guide the office’s efforts for the more than 500 student-athletes who wear the Black and Gold. support services offered to all asU intercollegiate student-athletes include, orientation, academic advising, career and personal counsetling, free tutoring, NCaa eligibility information, priority registration, athletic study hall and progress reports. In addition, academic services attends to the needs of the student-athlete while traveling to road games with laptops that can be checked out by student-athletes to work on assignments while on the road.

2009-10 Preview twelve veterans return from a 2008-09 Mountaineer squad that finished third in the southern Conference North Division at 9-11, 13-18 overall. the up-and-down year included five over-time decisions while 15-of-31 games were decided by six or fewer points. the most notable addition for 2009-10, however, comes on the sidelines as Buzz Pe-terson rejoins the program nine seasons after he led the apps to a league title and berth in the NCaa tournament in 2000. the pieces are beginning to come together for appalachian’s return to prominence in the soCon, as Peterson inherits five seniors and six juniors. along with Peterson, assistant coaches Ja-mie kachmarik and Jason Capel join the staff alongside Matt McMahon, who enters his 10th year on the bench. Peterson said of the staff, “You’re only as good as the coaching staff and I have a good, talented young group of guys in place.” the apps lost guard eduardo Bermudez to graduation after the senior averaged 6.3 points and 3.3 rebounds in 23 games with 16 starts, as well as departed freshmen Quinche Dowdell and Donterious Hughes, who aver-aged 4.7 and 1.6 points, respectively. However, asU returns 87 percent of its scor-ing from 2008-09. While the Mountaineers return much of their offensive punch, Peterson is best known for his tough-nosed defensive style. However, the new head coach maintains that heading into the season, he and his staff will be flexible in searching for an identity for the squad. “I’m a believer in adapting to your person-nel when entering a new situation, rather than coming in and saying ‘this is my style and this is how we’re going to do things.’” “that’s why the trip to the Bahamas (in august) was so beneficial. We really learned about each player’s strengths and weaknesses, what styles work for us and which players can work together for different lineups.” Peterson believes that if the players settle in and do what the coaches ask of them, play tough defense and eliminate easy points for the opposition, the team will experience the success that has come to be expected from appalachian.

Guards Beginning with point guard, the squad looks for leadership from senior Ryann abraham, who made 12 starts in 2008-09 and dished out three assists per contest. the team averaged 76.0 points per game a season ago and nearly one-third of its field goals came from beyond the arc. Junior point guard Donald sims sank 90 three-pointers at a rate of better than 40 percent and finished second on the team with 13.7 points per game. Marcus Wright returns after a freshman campaign in which he saw action in 27 games and worked his way into the backcourt rota-tion as the year progressed. “We need those three guys to be quarter-backs on the floor and get everybody where they need to be, but also limit their mistakes with the ball. Point guard is a very important position and the quicker those guys can adapt to playing smart basketball and executing our game plan, the better this team will be.” the versatile group may be asked to play together at times. abraham and sims have proved their ability to hit the outside shot and Wright continues to expand his range, so each may be called on to play the wing position as well. One of the biggest strengths of this year’s crop of guards is experience with senior kellen Brand leading the way. the team’s top scorer from a season ago returns after starting all 31 games for asU in ‘08-09. the 6-1 Brand earned all-conference honors after scoring 14.8 points per game for the up-tempo Mountaineer attack. He was also first on the team in free throws, second in three-pointers made and third in assists. Peterson said, “I’ve never had a player quite like kellen, who plays the game with a football player’s mentality. He showed in the Bahamas why he is an all-conference performer and we expect another solid year from him on both ends of the floor.” sharpshooters a.J. Highsmith and J.R. archer and all-around threat Jeremi Booth also return to help open up the offense for the post players underneath. “Jeremi has had one of the best fall camps of anyone on the team’” said Peterson. “He is

better conditioned, has made strides in the weight room and once he improves his of-fensive rebounding and shot selection, he has a chance to be a difference-maker for us.” Regarding Highsmith, a former walk-on, the head coach said, “a.J. has done a tremendous job in the classroom and on the court for this program for four years and has been a role model for his teammates and this University. We decided to reward him with a scholarship this year.” “archer is a hard-working player; I love him to death. He is always the first one in line and really gets his nose into everything on the court. Freshman Ryan kilmartin also joins the fold following a successful high school career at Charlotte Catholic. Peterson noted that kilmartin has pro-gressed quickly in a short period of time with his aggressive play and shares a similar work ethic as archer.

FOrwards/centers Isaac Butts and Josh Hunter return as the main components of appalachian’s post play. each member of the tandem ranked among the soCon’s top-10 in rebounds a season ago, as Butts reined in 8.5 boards per game and Hunter added 7.2. “Hunter was the most consistent player in august in the Bahamas. He always finds a way to do the little things and come up with those ugly rebounds, and really complements Butts well.” as a sophomore, Butts finished third in the soCon with nine double-doubles and con-verted just under 60 percent of his field goal attempts to go with his 8.5 points per game and team-high 39 blocked shots. “One of the first things I noticed with Ike is that for such a big guy, he has great hands and footwork. He had a setback with his knee injury (suffered during off-season workouts), but is on the road to a full recovery. We plan to get the ball inside to him almost every time and look to get some high-percentage shots.” Hunter started 24 games as a junior and showed off his scoring prowess with 8.9 points per game in addition to 44 assists, the most among asU big men. He has worked in the

2009-10 Previewoffseason to extend his range. While Butts and Hunter averaged more than 25 minutes per contest in ‘08-09, andre Wil-liamson blossomed as a freshman, grabbing 3.8 rebounds and swatting more than a shot per game in just 12.8 minutes on the floor. “andre is a very talented young man with a lot of upside. We want him to focus on de-fense and extend his range a little bit, but also be meaner in the paint,” Peterson said. senior tyler Webb brings versatility to the position, as the 6-9 forward showed off an outside scoring touch with nine three-point-ers a season ago. Webb made seven starts and converted 47.8 percent of his shots from the floor last season, good for 3.2 points per game. about Webb, Peterson said: “tyler has been very consistent and can extend his game outside. He’s also been a leader for us and has made the most of the fall with his condition-ing as well as time in the weight room.” the Nickelsville, Va. native added a 2.2 rebound average in 15 minutes per game after overcoming an early-season injury. Josh Nirenberg took a redshirt as a true freshman, but played well for Puerto Rico in the U19 World Basketball Championships over the summer and showed a lot of promise in the Bahamas. “the key with Josh is going to be condi-tioning. We want to get him in good enough shape that he can give us quality minutes on a regular basis. there’s no reason he can’t be out there with some meaningful minutes on this team,” Peterson said. appalachian adds a pair of Big south trans-fers in anthony Breeze (Coastal Carolina) and Omar Carter (Charleston southern), but the pair will sit out the season in accordance with NCaa transfer rules. Both players were named to the 2007-08 Big south all-freshman squad and enjoyed successful sophomore campaigns with their respective schools. the apps also welcome 6-7 freshman for-ward Nathan Healy, who led Blair academy to the New Jersey state championship last year. “Nathan is a walk-on who has had a good fall,” Peterson said. “He has a similar game to

tyler Webb, where he can step outside and shoot it. We’re happy to have him here and early on, he’s shown some bright signs for us.”

schedule sixteen home games and tough non-conference opponents highlight the 2009-10 schedule. Peterson likes to break the schedule into three parts: early non-conference games, the southern Conference slate and the soCon tournament. “Our goal is to be playing our best basket-ball when that third part of the season rolls around in March.” “We like to have as many home games as we can and to keep rivalries going with local teams, such as east tennessee state, Winthrop and UNC Wilmington.” asU’s campaign begins with a visit from UNC Wilmington on Nov. 13. the opener is sure to be grudge match after appalachian’s 108-101 overtime setback at UNCW in last year’s opener. the team then hits the road for a game at east tennessee state the following evening. the apps host lees McRae on Nov. 17 before heading out on perhaps the toughest road swing of the year. asU squares off with arkansas on Nov. 20 and at louisville three days later. asU defeated the Razorbacks on a neutral court two seasons ago in little Rock, ark. and played in louisville’s Freedom Hall last December against kentucky. Following the trip, appalachian closes out November with a home game against Morgan state on Nov. 28 and a rematch with last year’s esPNU BracketBuster opponent, Winthrop, in Boone on Nov. 30. the squad briefly dips into league play at home against Furman (Dec. 3) and at Wofford (Dec. 7) before final exams, then Milligan visits the High Country for a second-straight year on Dec. 17. asU closes out the calendar year with a three-game road swing, heading north to play Robert Morris (Dec. 19) and Dayton (Dec. 21) and wrapping up 2009 at Campbell on the 30th.

league play begins in earnest with the lone game of the season against the Citadel in Boone on Jan. 6. From there, the apps take on Davidson at Belk arena on Jan. 9. the apps return home to host division rivals elon on Jan. 13 and UNC Greensboro on Jan. 16. “I hope our fans are excited that we play Davidson twice this season, as it’s a good rivalry in the soCon and also in the state,” said Peterson. asU faces Georgia southern in statesboro on Jan. 20 before hosting Western Carolina three days later. Four of the following five games are on the road, with the Mountaineers visiting samford (Jan. 28), Chattanooga (Jan. 30), Western Carolina (Feb. 6) and UNCG in the Greensboro Coliseum (Feb. 8), sandwiched around a home date with king College (Feb. 1) Davidson returns to the High Country following last year’s sellout game against the Wildcats on Feb. 11 and is followed into the Holmes Center by Georgia southern two days later. appalachian makes the long trip to Charles-ton on Feb. 17 for the only game of the year against College of Charleston in ‘09-10, before participating in the esPNU BracketBuster event for the fourth-consecutive year. asU hosted Niagara two seasons ago and faced Wichita state (2007) and Winthrop (2009) on the road. the opponent for the Feb. 20 home game will be announced early that month. the regular season wraps up with three games against division rivals as the last road game of the season is at elon on Feb. 22. Identical to a year ago, appalachian hosts Chattanooga (Feb. 25) and samford (Feb. 27) before heading to the soCon tournament in Charlotte, March 5-8. “I know Charlotte is excited about hosting the tournament and I hope that we’ll be able to draw a lot of our fans and students down there.”

Buzz Peterson, who led appalachian state University men’s basketball to three southern Conference regular-season championships and an NCaa tournament appearance from 1996-2000, returned to appalachian to once again serve as the school’s men’s basketball head coach on april 29, 2009.

Peterson led the Mountaineers to a 79-39 record, including a 47-12 mark in soCon play, in his first four seasons at asU. His .669 overall winning percentage and .797 winning percentage in conference play are both tops among head coaches in program history (minimum three seasons).

after orchestrating a turnaround from an 8-20 season in the season prior to his arrival to a 14-14 record in 1996-97, Peterson coached the apps to three-consecutive 20-win seasons, soCon North Division titles and appearances in the soCon tournament championship game. the 1999-2000 squad went 23-9 and defeated College of Charleston, 68-56, in the soCon title game to give the program just its second NCaa tournament appearance in school history (the first since 1979).

In his four years at asU, he was twice named soCon Coach of the Year (1998 and 2000) and mentored seven all-conference honorees, including 2000 southern Conference Player of the Year and 2009 asU athletics Hall of Fame inductee tyson Patterson and first-team honorees Junior Braswell, kareem livingston and Marshall Phillips.

Following the 1999-2000 campaign, Peterson accepted the head-coaching position at tulsa. In his only season at tU, he led the Golden Hurricanes to a 26-11 record and the 2001 National Invitation tournament championship. three assistant coaches from that tulsa staff have gone on to head coaching positions, including ed Conroy (the Citadel), kerry keating (santa Clara) and John Phillips (tulsa).

the Golden Hurricane cruised past Memphis, 72-64, in the semifinal and alabama, 79-60, in the title game after advancing in the first three rounds by a combined nine points.

He then moved on to tennessee, where he posted a 61-59 record from 2001-05. the Vols earned two NIt berths in Peterson’s four seasons at the helm.

Following the stint at Ut, Peterson compiled a 35-25 record in two seasons at Coastal Carolina. In his first season at CCU (2005-06), the Chanticleers registered their first 20-win season in 13 years and fell in heart-breaking fashion to Winthrop in the 2006 Big south tourna-ment championship game.

In his 11 seasons as a head coach, Peterson has compiled a 201-134 overall record (.600) and led his teams to four postseason appear-ances.

He left the college game in 2007 to become the Director of Player Personnel for the National Basketball association’s Charlotte Bobcats. the Bobcats won 32 games in 2007-08 before hiring hall of fame coach larry Brown. Working closely with Brown, Peterson served as the organization’s top talent evaluator through the 2009 NBa Draft. the Bobcats won a franchise-record 35 games in the 2008-09 season and finished just four games shy of the team’s first-ever playoff berth.

Prior to accepting his first head-coaching position at asU in 1996, Peterson spent nine seasons as an assistant coach, with stints at asU (1987-89), east tennessee state (1989-90), NC state (1990-93) and Vanderbilt (1993-96). the teams that he served as an assistant coach for made four postseason appearances (two NCaa, two NIt) and were a combined 154-117.

Under head coach tom apke, Peterson helped the Mountaineers to a 16-13 record in 1987-88, including a stretch of nine wins in 10 games late in the season to secure the conference’s sixth seed in the tournament. In 1988-89 the Mountaineers jumped out to a 9-1 record to start the season and finished the year third in the soCon at 8-6, 20-8 overall.

Peterson played for four seasons under legendary head coach Dean smith at North Carolina from 1981-85. During his playing career at

after graduating five players in 2007-08, the Mountaineers entered ‘08-’09 with eduardo Bermudez as the only senior on the roster. the young squad stumbled in the opener with a 108-101 setback at UNC Wilmington before rebounding with a double-overtime triumph over Charlotte. Big men Isaac Butts and Josh Hunter established themselves early on in the post, as the duo accounted for 14 double-doubles on the year and 15.7 of asU’s league-best 39.4 rebounds per game. a sophomore, Butts started all 31 games for the Mountaineers and led the team in rebounding 16 times to go along with a 8.5 ppg scoring average and team-leading 39 blocks. Hunter added 8.9 points per contest in the post and got to the free-throw line a team-best 155 times. Redshirt junior tyler Webb shared time in the post, as did freshmen andre Williamson and Quinche Dowdell to help the Mountaineers lead the soCon in rebounding. each of the five post players shot 40 percent or better from the field. the guards were the beneficiaries of the low-post presence throughout the season, with kellen Brand enjoying a breakout year. the junior guard led the team with 14.8 points per game, including 31 in the apps’ 76-70 win over Western Carolina. He added 29 more at elon and led the team in scoring 13 times. Donald sims opened the season with 24 points at UNCW and closed the year with 29 in the southern Conference

quarterfinal round against Davidson and provided plenty of fireworks from beyond the arc in between. sims’ finest moments of the year came against eventual division and league champion Chattanooga on Feb. 26, as the sophomore sank nine three-pointers and 35 points. sims broke an 82-82 tie late in the game with a pair of bombs to seal the six-point win. the Gaffney, s.C. native sank more than 40 percent of his three-point at-tempts on the season, including a buzzer-beater to send the game to overtime against North Division rival UNC Greens-boro. Bermudez averaged 6.3 points per game in 23 contests for the apps while freshman Marcus Wright learned the nu-ances of point guard and dished out 45 assists with 3.7 points per game. Ryann abraham scored 9.8 points per contest in 12 starts as a junior and posted a positive assist-to-turnover ratio at 1.3 for the season. Off the bench, a.J. Highsmith heated up in the second half of the season and knocked down 39.1 percent of treys on the year, including the game-winner at UNCG. Jeremi Booth showed flashes of brilliance in his sophomore campaign, capped off with 21 points against Geor-gia southern in the soCon tournament’s opening round.

Nov. 14, 2008 • Wilmington, N.C.Trask Coliseum • 5,150

appalachian state University men’s basketball never trailed in regulation after the opening minute but ultimately fell in overtime to UNC Wilmington in overtime, 108-101. appalachian led by 14 points at half-time and 17 points with six minutes left in the contest before a 12-0 UNCW run cut the margin to five, 85-80, with 4:36 left to play on a three-pointer from Chad tomko. tomko finished the game with 27 points, 22 of them after halftime. after cutting the lead to five, the apps kept the seahawks two possessions away until tomko stole an errant pass at midcourt and streaked to the basket for a layup to pull within two points, 95-93 with 45 seconds left. Donald sims extended the lead to three with a free throw 18 seconds later, but missed his second attempt which fell into tomko’s waiting hands and soon into the twine as he stepped up with a three-pointer to knot the game with 20 seconds left. asU set up the offense to take the final shot, but Ryann abraham’s floater in the lane was off the mark to force the extra period. the seahawks tied the game twice before taking the lead for good at 103-100 on one of Johnny Wolf’s five three-pointers on the evening.

the last time appalachian state and Niagara University met on the hardwood the game wasn’t decided until the final second. this time, it didn’t take the full 40 minutes but the result was the same as the Mountaineers fell, 95-80, at Niagara’s Gallagher Center on November 22. the come-from-behind win, Niagara’s (2-1) fifth-straight over the Mountaineers, was fueled by Bilal Benn and tyrone lewis’ 22 points each. appalachian (1-2) was led by 20 points each from Donald sims and kellen Brand. Josh Hunter led all players on the glass with 11 rebounds. the Mountaineers jumped out to a quick 13-3 lead with five points from Butts and abraham in the first four minutes of the contest. the defense kept the eagles silent for nearly three minutes to build up a 17-5 lead with 14 minutes to play before a 5-0 NU spurt evened things a bit. Niagara kept up the pressure to start the second half and took its first lead since the opening minute of the game on a three-point play from Demetrius Williamson less than two minutes in. the squads went back and forth until NU used a 9-0 run resulted in a 67-59 NU lead with nine minutes to play thanks to five points from Benn.

appalachian state University men’s basketball never trailed and led by as many as 19 points en route to defeating Campbell University, 79-66, at the Holmes Center on November 29. Isaac Butts’ dom-inance in the paint with 14 points and 11 rebounds propelled the Mountaineers to their fourth-straight win over the in-state rival. appalachian opened up another big lead as a 9-0 run helped the team take an early 12-2 lead four minutes into the game. the apps kept Campbell at bay for the next four minutes until a 12-0 Moun-taineer run gave asU its biggest lead of the game at 29-10 with six minutes left in the opening half. the apps ran their second-half lead out to as many as 16, 49-33, on a three-point play from Ryann abraham with 13:07 left on the clock before the Camels began to chip away, outscoring the Mountaineers 21-11 over the next seven minutes to pull within six points on a Rodriguez layup. that would be as close as CU would come as asU ran its lead back out into double-digits to cruise in the final minutes to the 13-point victory as all 11 players that hit the floor scored for asU.

Forward Josh Hunter led appala-chian state men’s basketball to a 65-60 come-from-behind victory at Furman to open up southern Conference play on December 3. the junior posted his sec-ond double-double of the season with 13 points and 11 rebounds and sealed the victory with a critical defensive rebound and a pair of free throws in the final 10 seconds. appalachian trailed for the majority of the contest, but closed the game with a 10-0 run to earn its first road win of the season. the homestanding Paladins were led by Jordan Miller’s 17 points in the loss. asU erased a halftime deficit to take its first lead since the opening minute, 53-51, on a Donterious Hughes layup with 7:47 left in the half. the Paladins re-established their lead over the next five minutes to take a 60-55 lead on a Miller three-pointer with 3:05 left. However, that would be FU’s final points of the contest as the Mountaineers closed the game on a 10-0 run. With 1:21 asU claimed the lead for good on a Hunter jumper to pull ahead 61-60.

In a game that was eerily similar to last season’s contest at Wofford, Donald sims was quiet for most of the game but drew the dagger in waning minutes to defeat the terriers, 82-77. the Gaffney, s.C. native finished with 18 points, 15 in the second half to help the Mountaineers hang on after seeing an 18-point lead evaporate. the final minutes were packed with plenty of drama as the apps reclaimed the lead with 2:04 left on a big three-pointer from sims. the next minute was played scoreless until a Josh Hunter three-point play capped a 10-0 run and gave asU a 75-71 lead with a minute to play. Wofford, fueled by the energy from the hometown crowd, answered with a three-pointer from Junior salters and after a timeout, the apps botched the inbound play and salters scooped up the loose ball under the basket to put Wof-ford up 76-75 with 34 seconds to play. the terriers fouled on the ensuing pos-session and sims drained both free throw to give asU the lead back. He would get sent to the line four more times in the final 30 seconds and calmly drained all four to deliver the win for asU.

Despite 13 points, 15 rebounds and five blocked shots by Isaac Butts, appa-lachian state University men’s basketball dropped a 89-70 decision to local-rival east tennessee state at the Holmes Center. appalachian held a 37-35 halftime advantage, but etsU opened the second period with a 15-5 run and led the rest of the way for its second-straight win over the Mountaineers. Butts’ double-double was his fourth in a row and sixth of the season. etsU’s kevin tiggs led all scorers with a career-high 31 points, 10 of them coming at the free-throw line. tiggs combined with Courtney Pigram (29) and Mike smith (18) to score 78 of the Bucs’ 89 points turnovers ultimately doomed the apps as 21 miscues, 12 in the second half, became 29 points for etsU as the Bucs connected on 44.6 percent of their shots from the floor and 88.5 percent of their 26 free throws. the Bucs wasted little time after the break, needing just 1:30 to pull off a seven-point swing to lead 42-37 as the apps coughed up the ball on two of their first three possessions of the half.

a 10-minute texas spurt begin-ning near the end of the first half and extending through the second half ruined a close game as appalachian state University men’s basketball fell 78-43 to the longhorns in 2009’s first game. the longhorns pulled away from the Mountaineers (5-5) after the apps closed an early gap to just three points. after a rocky start over the first five minutes of the game, the shots began to fall for the Mountaineers as the team battled back from a 20-10 deficit with a 7-0 run fueled by five points from kellen Brand and a pair from Quinche Dowdell. the apps pulled within 22-21 before the longhorns regained a bit of momen-tum over the final five minutes with a 10-4 run to close out the half and take a 32-23 advantage to the locker room. Brand hit all four free-throw attempts in the first 20 minutes and 3-of-5 shots from the floor for 10 points, while the team hit just 32.1 of it’s first-half attempts, due in large part to the seven texas blocks in the first stanza.Brand led the team with 12 points on 4-of-8 shooting to go along with four rebounds and an assist.

the Mountaineers cut a 17-point deficit to just five points but were unable to complete the comeback as College of Charleston got the best of appalachian state University men’s basketball, 88-80.

appalachian state University men’s basketball built a 16-point lead and weathered a late Furman run to take a 77-75 win at the Holmes Center. Isaac Butts led the Mountaineers (8-11, 5-6 (soCon) with a career-high 16 points and 16 rebounds - including nine in the first half - in the game. He was 6-for-7 from the floor with an assist. the Mountaineers extended their advantage to as many as 16 points in the second half led by 10 when Donald sims hit a three-pointer with 3:06 to play. How-ever, that would be the apps’ last field goal of the afternoon and Furman (3-17, 1-10 soCon) outscored asU 11-3 over the next 2:48 to cut the deficit to 75-73 with 18 seconds remaining. However, sims hit a pair of free throws with eight seconds to go and Donterious Hughes found a wide open Jeremi Booth on a beautifully-designed inbounds play in the closing seconds to seal the victory. In the first half, kellen Brand hit a pair of three-pointers before he was relegated to the bench with a pair of fouls. It didn’t stop the rest of the offense, however, as the team sank half of their 28 attempts to take a 37-26 halftime lead.

Both totals were career highs for Butts and the double-double was his eighth of the year. Donald sims maintained his hot hand from saturday as he led the team with 29 points, including 6-of-9 three-pointers to go along with three assists. kellen Brand added 18 points on 7-of-15 shooting while Jeremi Booth (14) and Josh Hunter (10) rounded out the double-figure scor-ing for asU. appalachian (9-11, 6-6 soCon) missed its first six field goal attempts in the game before Butts sank two in a row. Fortunate-ly for the Mountaineers, GsU struggled in the first half with seven turnovers, and the apps never trailed by more than five points before the shooters started to heat up. sims sank 4-of-6 from beyond the arc and 5-of-6 from the line to total 19 of the team’s 44 first-half points. Butts helped the cause with eight points of his own to go along with 12 rebounds in the open-ing period.

Donald sims’ three-pointer at the buzzer was off target as appalachian state University men’s basketball suffered a 74-72 setback at the hands of the Citadel at the Holmes Center the win was the Citadel’s sixth in a row but first over appalachian since Jan. 20, 1996, snapping a string of 17-straight asU victories in the series. the Citadel won in Boone for the first time since a 75-71 victory at Varsity Gym on Feb. 13, 1993. the Mountaineers (9-12, 6-7 soCon) opened a seven-point lead in the first half of the game behind eight points from kellen Brand, but the Bulldogs closed out the half on a 10-2 run to take a 35-33 lead into the locker room. the Citadel (14-10, 9-4) regained the advantage after the break and extended it to as many as seven early in the second half. However, the apps cut the deficit to two points in the final minute and had the ball following a Marcus Wright steal with 14 seconds left to play. On their final possession, kellen Brand was unable to break free for an open look and dished to sims, who had a decent look at the would-be game-winning shot, but the attempt bounced off the rim as time expired.

Isaac Butts tipped in a missed shot at the buzzer to send the game to overtime, but Cameron Wells scored six of his game-high 30 in the extra period as the Citadel took a 78-73 win. For the second time in eight days, the Mountaineers (10-13, 7-8 soCon) trailed the Citadel by two points in the final min-ute, when a.J. Highsmith’s three-point attempt from the corner rimmed out with just a few ticks left. Butts hauled in the rebound in the middle of the paint and tipped it in at the buzzer to bump the score to 66-66 and force an extra frame. the Citadel (16-10, 11-4) struck first in overtime with four points before Marcus Wright responded with five points to give the apps a 71-70 lead with just over two minutes left. after a Bulldog free throw tied it, Donald sims hit a jumper to give the apps a 73-71 advantage. those would be the final asU points as the Citadel scored the final seven points of the contest. kellen Brand scored 18 points in the first half and finished the game with 22 points on 4-of-6 three-point attempts to go with three of asU’s six steals. sims picked up the slack after halftime with 12 points in the game after not taking a single shot in the opening 20 minutes.

appalachian state University men’s basketball stormed back from a 14-point deficit with three minutes left to take the lead in the waning seconds, but College of Charleston’s tony White, Jr. hit a three-pointer with 1.6 seconds remaining to hand appalachian a heart-breaking 91-87 defeat at the Holmes Center. appalachian (10-15, 7-10 soCon) trailed 83-69 with 3:05 to go in the ballgame but went on an 18-3 run over the next 2:50, capped by a pair of free throws by freshman Marcus Wright that gave asU its first lead in over 37 minutes at 87-86. However, on the ensuing possession, Charleston (19-7, 11-5 soCon) regained the lead when White, Jr. drilled a three from the corner off an assist from andrew Goudelock. trailing by two with under two seconds to play, the Mountaineers at-tempted to throw a pass the length of the floor following the CofC trey, but the ball sailed out of bounds. Matt sundberg sank a pair of free throws with .4 seconds remaining to seal the Cougars’ triumph. During the appalachian run, the team made 5-of-6 shots.

a.J. Highsmith nailed a three-pointer from the left corner to give appalachian state University men’s basketball a 70-69 lead with 27 seconds left and the Mountaineers held on for the win as UNC Greensboro’s final shot fell short. Highsmith’s final trey was his third of the game as he scored nine points in the game. the junior added a rebound, an assist and a steal as well. appalachian (11-15, 8-10 soCon) held a 45-31 rebounding advantage and com-mitted just four turnovers in the second half as the team snapped a three-game skid. the game started with a physical tone, as the teams combined for 25 fouls and 23 free throws in 35 attempts. the apps led by as many as 11 points before a late barrage of Greensboro three-pointers narrowed the gap to 35-34 at the inter-mission. asU never trailed in the opening pe-riod, and led by as many as 11 points. the spartans (4-22, 3-14) finished the half on a 13-3 run and took their first lead with 11 minutes to go.

For the third-straight season, appala-chian state University men’s basketball’s BracketBuster contest went down to the wire, as Winthrop escaped with 65-63 win over the Mountaineers. the apps scraped back from a nine-point second half deficit and took three late leads in the game before three eagle treys and a pair of free throws gave Winthrop a late three point edge. With the final possession of the game, Marcus Wright drew a foul for three shots at the line with just 0.7 seconds showing on the clock. the freshman missed the first shot and made the second, before in-tentionally missing the third. Josh Hunter grabbed the rebound and tipped it off the back iron before the shot rimmed out to end the game. appalachian (11-16) ended a four-minute scoring drought with a 10-0 run over the next three to take its first lead of the game with just over four minutes at 55-54. Winthrop scored the first eight points of the game before Donald sims found the bottom of the net from downtown to get the apps on the board.

Donald sims scored a career-high 35 points, including two critical three-pointers in the final minute, to lead appa-lachian state University men’s basketball to a crucial 88-82 win over first-place Chattanooga at the Holmes Center. With the victory, appalachian (12-16, 9-10 soCon) remained in the hunt for one of the North Division’s two first-round byes in next week’s southern Conference tournament. a win on saturday versus samford and a Western Carolina loss to Chattanooga (15-15, 11-8) gives asU the first-round bye. No team without a bye has won the soCon tournament since it went to a four-day format in 1993. Having already tied his previous career high of 29, sims snapped an 82-82 deadlock with a long-range three-pointer with 57 seconds left to play. after UtC’s stephen McDowell missed his attempt at a game-tying three and following an asU timeout, sims drained his ninth three-pointer of the evening from 25 feet with 14 seconds remaining to seal the thrilling win. the Mountaineers led by as many as 14 points in the second half, but the Mocs went on a 34-19 run to take its first lead in 26 minutes at 76-75 with 4:09 to go.

kellen Brand scored a game-high 21 points but it wasn’t enough as samford came out strong in the second-half to take a 72-63 win over appalachian state at the Holmes Center. With the setback, the Mountaineers (12-17, 9-11) will play as the North’s fourth seed in next week’s southern Conference tournament. asU will face the south’s fifth seed at 2 p.m. on Friday in Chattanooga, tenn. the opponent will either be Georgia southern or Furman, and will not be decided until Furman’s Monday contest at Wofford. appalachian swept the Paladins in the regular season and won the only meeting against Geor-gia southern, in statesboro. asU held a five point halftime lead but samford outscored appalachian in the second half by a margin of 45 to 31. andy king tied a career-high with 20 points for samford with 14 after the intermission. a 23-4 samford run gave the Bulldogs a 57-46 lead with six minutes to play, and the advantage proved to be too much for the apps to overcome. the Mountaineers got back within seven points at 59-52 on a jumper by Donald sims, but that was the closest asU came as samford made their final five free-throws to ice the game.

Jeremi Booth scored a career-high 21 points - with four three-pointers - to lead appalachian state University men’s basketball to an 86-75 win over Georgia southern in the opening round of the southern Conference tournament. the Mountaineers (13-17) shot a stout 53.7 percent from the floor and sank 10 treys to overcome strong shooting from the eagles (8-22). GsU shot 43.3 percent from the floor but just 30 percent from beyond the arc. the eagles were led by 20 points from tyler troupe. asU’s last 12 points came from the free throw line, where the Mountaineers converted on 18-of-27 attempts. the Mountaineers led a majority of the game and never trailed by more than two points. Josh Hunter and kellen Brand added 16 points each and Donald sims added 12, including three longballs. Hunter and Isaac Butts combined to score asU’s first eight points, before Don-terious Hughes added the next four. the apps built an 8-point lead in the first half and extended it to as many as 13 midway through the second half. Hunter nearly added a double-double, as the junior grabbed a team-leading eight boards. Butts added seven re-bounds and four points to go along with five blocks, matching his career high.

Donald sims scored 29 points and was a perfect 12-for-12 from the free-throw line, but appalachian state University men’s basketball saw its season come to an end in a hard-fought 84-68 setback against Davidson on saturday. the Mountaineers (13-18) trailed by 10 at the half, 44-34, but came out strong after the intermission and scored the first four points of the frame. three sims free throws pulled the apps within 56-55 with 10 minutes to play before a 10-point Davidson (26-6) run closed the door on the potential upset. It took more than eight minutes for a player not named stephen Curry to score for DC in the second half, as the league’s Player of the Year outscored his team-mates 43-41 in the game. the apps held a 44-33 rebounding advantage in the contest, led by nine boards from andre Williamson. the fresh-man played 19 minutes off the bench and added two points and two of asU’s four blocks. Josh Hunter collected seven rebounds of his own to go along with 13 points and a steal. the junior made 4-of-9 shots and five free throws. Fellow starting big man Isaac Butts added six points and six rebounds on 3-for-4 shooting.

the SoCon the southern Conference, which began its 89th season of intercollegiate competition in 2009, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. the southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of fresh-men eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984) and becoming the first conference to install the three-point goal in basketball (1980), the southern Conference has been a pioneer. the southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCaa Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big ten (1896), the Mis-souri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the southwestern athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. academic excellence has been a major part of the southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on esPN the Magazine/CosIDa academic all-america and all-district teams. a total of 19 Rhodes scholar-ship winners have been selected from confer-ence institutions. the Conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCaa Division I Championships. the southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in spar-tanburg, s.C. a textile mill that was in opera-tion from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

MeMberShip hiStory On Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the southern Intercollegiate athletic as-sociation’s (sIaa) 30 members met at atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the southern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the in-augural meeting were officials from alabama, alabama Polytechnic Institute (auburn), Clem-son, Georgia, Georgia school of technology (Georgia tech), kentucky, Maryland, Missis-sippi a&M (Mississippi state), North Carolina, North Carolina state, tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia tech) and Washington & lee. Dr. s.V. sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chairman and N.W. Dougherty of ten-nessee was named secretary. the decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the sIaa by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the sIaa voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play sum-mer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921 and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league including tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, louisiana (lsU), Mississippi, south Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the south-ern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “sally” Miles of Virginia tech, president of the southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932 at the Farragut Hotel in knoxville, tenn. Georgia’s Dr. sanford announced that 13 institutions west

and south of the appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included ala-bama, alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia school of technology, ken-tucky, louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi a&M, University of the south, tennessee, tulane and Vanderbilt. according to the minutes of the meet-ing, Dr. sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdraw-ing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the southern Conference had grown too large. the resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new league which began play in 1932. the southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institutions including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina state, south Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia tech and Washington & lee. the second major shift occurred 20 years later. By 1952, the southern Conference included 17 schools. another split occurred when seven schools including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina state, south Carolina and Wake Forest de-parted to form the atlantic Coast Conference, which began play in 1953. the revamped so-Con included members the Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia tech, Washington & lee, West Virginia and William & Mary. today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 12 institu-tions and a footprint that spans five states: tennessee, North Carolina, south Carolina, ala-bama and Georgia. Current league members are appalachian state, College of Charleston, the Citadel, Davidson, elon, Furman, Georgia southern, UNC Greensboro, samford, Chat-tanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford.

leaderShip John Iamarino was officially named commissioner of the conference on January 2, 2006. Iamarino has promoted the southern Conference through an ambitious agenda which has improved competition, upgraded compliance-related matters and increased the marketing and brand awareness of the confer-ence and its member institutions. the southern Conference named its first commissioner in December 1950. Duke head football coach Wallace Wade made the transi-tion from Blue Devil football coach to athletics administration as the first person at the helm. lloyd Jordan replaced Wade as the com-missioner in 1960 and served a 14-year term until ken Germann became the league head in 1974. Germann was the commissioner for 13 years and orchestrated the league’s expansion to include women’s athletics. In 1987, he was succeeded by Dave Hart who spearheaded the transfer of the league office from Charlotte, N.C., to asheville, N.C.

the SoCon Wright Waters succeeded Hart upon his retirement in 1991. Under Waters’ leadership, the southern Conference expanded to 12 members, added three women’s sports and posted record revenue from the basketball tournament. Waters, who is currently the com-missioner of the sun Belt Conference, was fol-lowed by alfred B. White in 1998. White, a vet-eran member of the NCaa office, introduced the current conference logo and elevated the conference’s commitment to marketing and development of corporate partners. Danny Morrison headed the conference from 2001-2005 and orchestrated the league’s move from asheville, N.C. to spartanburg. Un-der Morrison’s leadership, the soCon increased its marketing and promotional efforts.

ChaMpionShip hiStory the first southern Conference Champion-ship was the league basketball tournament held in atlanta in 1922. the North Carolina tar Heels won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. the southern Conference tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. Commissioner Germann spearheaded the southern Conference’s expansion to include women’s athletics during the 1983-84 season. that year, league championships were held in volleyball, basketball and tennis. Cross country joined the mix in 1985 and the league began holding indoor and outdoor track champion-ships in 1988. Most recently, the conference instituted golf and softball championships in the spring of 1994 and added soccer that fall. the Germann Cup, named in honor of the former commissioner, annually recognizes the top women’s athletics programs in the confer-ence. From its humble beginnings, women’s athletics have become an integral part of the southern Conference and its success. the southern Conference declares champions in 10 men’s sports - football, soc-cer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, base-ball, tennis and golf - and nine women’s sports - soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track & field, tennis, golf and softball.

baSketball Men’s basketball was the first sport in which the conference held a championship. the league tournament is the nation’s oldest, with the inaugural championship held at atlanta’s City auditorium in 1922. Not only was the southern Conference tournament the first of its kind, the league also helped change the face of college basket-ball. In 1980, the league began a season-long experiment with a 22-foot three-point field goal with the approval of the NCaa Rules Committee. Ronnie Carr of Western Carolina made the first three-point field goal in college basketball history in a game against Middle tennessee state on Nov. 29, 1980.

another college basketball tradition that originated in the southern Conference is the traditional cutting of the nets by the winning team. according to Usa today, the practice of net cutting originated in 1947 with North Carolina state head coach everett Case. as a first-year head coach, Case led the Wolfpack to the tournament title. Case celebrated by claiming the nets as a souvenir of the win to commemorate the event. Basketball coaching legend Red auer-bach gives credit to former George Washing-ton coach Bill Reinhart, who coached in the conference for nearly 30 years, as one of the originators of the modern fast-break. West Virginia’s 10 tournament champion-ships are still the most in league history. the Mountaineers were led by the incomparable Jerry West from 1958 through ’60. West, a two-time all-america selection, spurred West Virginia to the Final Four in 1959. the Moun-taineers lost in the championship game that season to California, 71-70, but West earned Final Four Most Valuable Player honors. West was a three-time southern Conference tourna-ment MVP, a two-time league regular season MVP and was twice named the conference’s athlete of the Year. He went on to a spectacu-lar career with the los angeles lakers and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basket-ball Hall of Fame in 1979. He was a 14-time NBa all-star while with the lakers. It is West’s silhouette that comprises the NBa’s globally recognized logo.

Frank selvy set the NCaa record for points in a game while at Furman. On Feb. 13, 1954, the senior scored 100 points in a game against Newberry, a record that still stands. selvy was the southern Conference Most Valu-able Player in 1953 and 1954 and the league’s athlete of the Year in 1954. He went on to a 10-year career in the NBa. Rod Hundley was another West Virginia star during the 1950s. “Hot Rod” made a name for himself as one of the most spectacular players to tour the league during his era. Hundley averaged 24.5 points per game in his three seasons as a Mountaineer and was an all-conference and all-tournament performer in each of those three years. He was the south-ern Conference Most Valuable Player and athlete of the Year as a senior in 1957. He was the first player selected in the 1957 NBa draft and enjoyed a six-year career in that league. east tennessee state’s keith “Mister” Jen-nings made his mark on the college basketball world in the early 1990s. Despite standing less than six feet tall, Jennings was a two-time all-conference choice and the league’s Player of the Year and athlete of the Year in 1991. Jen-nings played with the Golden state Warriors. Besides West Virginia’s team in 1959, the southern Conference has been represented in the Final Four on two other occasions. North Carolina advanced to the NCaa championship game in 1943 before falling 43-40 to Okla-homa state. North Carolina state finished third in the tournament in 1950. Davidson continued the duccess by ad-vancing to the NCaa tournament’s elite eight in 2008.

the magical 1978-79 season of Bobby Cremins and his upstart appalachian team shook the conventions of those soaked in southern Conference tradition. Over its early years in the soCon, asU’s climb finally paid dividends. the Mountaineers finished an amaz-ing 23-6 after opening the season 7-0. an 11-game unbeaten streak highlighted the season heading into the NCaa tournament. all-league performers Mel Hubbard, Darryl Robinson, Charles Payton and Renaldo law-rence led the apps to an 11-3 soCon record. the team’s most-talented player, Robinson averaged a team-high 15.1 points and earned soCon tournament MVP acclaim. the 86-83 win over Furman in the tourna-ment finals signified the Bobby Cremins era had come full circle. thousands of Moun-taineer faithfu l lined up in front of Varsity Gym to welcome the triumphant team home from Roanoke, Va. With Cremins and his first recruits completing their careers, the bus trip to Boone with the trophy gave the apps a taste of greatness. appalachian trav-eled to the Midwest Regional in Blooming-ton, Ind. to face lsU. With little fanfare, asU was ousted by a larger tiger team in the first round, 71-57. talk of the magical 1978-79 season continues to be a season to be remem-bered.

bobby cremins “the trip to the NCaa tournament with appalachian in 1979 ranks as one of my fondest memories. We had an experienced team that played smart. Players like Darryl Robinson and Mel Hubbard helped our cause with their leadership on and off the court.” “the game with Furman was close throughout. they were a good team and really battled us. When we returned home, it was amazing to see all the fans.” “as for the tournament game with lsU, I think we had a bit of stage fright. lsU was a good team and we started slowly. We certainly did not have our best game.” “that season really brought a lot of credibility to our program. It was nice to see those guys set a goal, work hard, and achieve it.”

darryl robinson “that season was one I will never for-get. We were a close knit bunch. We were serious about contending for the southern Conference crown. Coach Cremins pushed us and we believed in him.” “Our team was ready for Furman. We played a good game and had some luck fall our way. It was very rewarding to cut the nets down after working so hard through-out the season.”

Buzz Peterson emphasized team chemistry. During the 1999-2000 season, Peterson combined four seniors with new faces to produce a 23-9 record, a third-consecutive soCon North Division title, and asU’s second NCaa tournament experi-ence. achievements were plentiful, a record-tying 23 triumphs, including a string of 11 consecutive wins highlighted by a perfect January (10-0). the 72-60 win at Clemson was the apps’ first against an aCC foe since winning at Duke, Dec. 5, 1981. In the season’s first outing, the legend of Rufus leach was born with 28 points, including eight treys at Oklahoma state. tyson Patterson claimed soCon regular season and tournament most valuable player honors en route to setting asU single-season and career records. the 5-7 Patterson saved the day in the soCon tour-nament semifinal against Furman. Using everything in his bag of tricks, he amassed 28 points including 12 of asU’s final 14 for the 60-56 win. In the finals, asU defeated College of Charleston 68-56. Patterson and appalachian cut down the nets, and brought another soCon cham-pionship home.

buzz peterson “the success of that season was due in part to the tremendous leadership of the seniors. We started the season out 0-2 but the team fought hard and believed in themselves.” “We had been so close in the two previ-ous years and the third time was a charm. I remember the excitement at the arena and coming back up on the mountain. the cars were lined from Banner elk to the Varsity Gym. to see the players’ faces light up is what a coach likes to see most.” “We were excited about the opportunity to play. that game seemed to take forever to get here. I think we had two weeks to prepare and I tried to get our guys some rest. We played a great Ohio state team.” tyson patterson “that season was special for me. the team wanted to win the soCon title a lot after coming so close the previous two seasons.” “I pushed myself to be a role model for the younger players. Our team had a lot of chemisty. Coach Peterson’s intense work ethic prepared us for the season and ulti-mately helped us win the title.” “the hard work was well worth the experi-ence of winning the southern Conference championship and playing in the NCaa tournament.”

the Mountaineers made history in 2006-07 with a school-record 25 victories and the program’s third postseason appearance with an NIt berth. the groundwork for the record-setting season was laid in san Juan, Puerto Rico where the apps stunned the college basket-ball world with consecutive victories over aCC Champion Virginia, UCF and sweet 16 participant Vanderbilt to win the san Juan shootout championship. D.J. thompson, Donte Minter and Nate Cranford earned all-tournament honors after leading the apps to three of the biggest wins in school history. the Mountaineers remained on the radar for the rest of the season, climbing to as high as No. 6 in the Mid-Major top 25 poll and receiving votes in the esPN/Usa today Coaches Poll. the squad continued to make waves in non-conference action with victories at sweet 16 participant VCU and a win at Wichita state before a stunned crowd of 10,478 and a national-television audience on esPN U. Victories continued to roll in during the stretch run of the season as the team won 11 of its final 12 regular-season games, including an 81-74 victory at Davidson, the Wildcats’ only conference loss of the season. the apps ended the regular season with a 25-6 record and were one of only 13 teams in the nation that didn’t lose consecu-tive games. they entered the soCon tournament as the No. 2 seed and quickly dispatched longtime rival Western Carolina in the quarterfinals, 78-59. the win, asU’s eighth straight and school record 25th win, set up a semifinal showdown with College of Charleston. Unfortunately, the squad would come up just short at the Cougars held on for an 89-87 overtime victory in front of the hometown crowd. the loss created a tense two weeks for the Mountaineers as they awaited ‘selection sunday’ to learn if they would be included in the NCaa tournament’s field of 65. In the two weeks leading up to NCaa selection show various national media outlets and pundits lobbied for the apps inclusion into the field. However, the media surge leading up to selection sunday didn’t sway the commit-tee as asU found itself on the other side of the bubble, but were rewarded with an NIt berth. after not having played in nearly two weeks, the squad traveled to Oxford, Miss. to face Ole Miss in its third postseason appear-ance in school history. Despite a tightly-con-tested first half, an Ole Miss run in the second half of the contest dashed any hopes of asU advancing in the tournament and ended the Mountaineers’ record-setting season.

from the desK of the chAncellor ... there’s a fresh, new excitement buzzing within kidd Brewer stadium – also known as “the Rock,” a fitting term for the solid preparation our student-athletes achieve during their time at appalachian state University. the kidd Brewer stadium Complex behind the west-side stands exemplifies appalachian’s progress in enhancing its athletics facilities. all 20 varsity sports benefit from the facility’s new locker rooms, study areas, and strength and conditioning rooms. there are also new concessions and restroom areas for our fans. I thank our faculty, staff, students, loyal alumni and friends for their support in making this impressive facility possible. Under the complex’s “Big a” sign, there’s a lot to cheer about: the Mountaineers have earned both the southern Conference’s Commis-sioner’s Cup for overall excellence in men’s athletics 29 times since the award was established in 1979 and the Germann Cup, recognizing the top women’s program in the conference, six of the 18 years the award has been presented. In addition, our student-athletes consistently make the southern Conference’s academic Honor Roll. For all students, appalachian aspires to be a model 21st-century, nationally recognized university combining the best characteristics of a liberal arts education with the opportunities afforded by many research institutions. We are committed to attracting, educating and graduat-ing the best students and to producing the highest levels of scholarship. appalachian, an influential world citizen preparing students for life in global and local communities, remains an excellent value. Once again, kiplinger Personal Finance magazine has recognized appalachian in its list of the nation’s top 100 values in public colleges and univer-sities in 2008-09. kiplinger’s rankings are based on a combination of outstanding academic quality and an affordable price tag. We are also committed to improving citizen’s lives in this region, state and nation through research, such as the federally supported ap-palaIR project that monitors air quality and atmospheric conditions and their impact on the region’s ecosystems and climate. Construction of a model house on campus to test innovative technologies and building practices is an example of the energy solutions for which appala-chian is becoming known. In addition, our students are committed to sustainability – as evidenced by their self-imposed Renewable energy Initiative fee that supports projects such as the installation of solar panels at Raley Hall and a solar thermal system for providing hot water to Plemmons student Union. Notable scholarship, excellent teaching and meaningful service define this institution. thank you for your continued support of appala-chian, and I hope you enjoy the game.

With Mountaineer pride,

kenneth e. PeacockChancellor

Boone, north carolina Boone lies nestled in a small valley in the heart of the southern appalachians and is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic adventure magazine’s “Best Places to live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best small towns in america,” Usa today’s “10 Great small towns with Huge Backyards” and U.s. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.s.” Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the town of Boone incorporated in 1872. appalachian state University began as Watauga academy in 1899 to educate the mountain children and ultimately to prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became appalachian state teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina sys-tem in 1971. Boone and appalachian grew up together in the secluded wilderness, with few roads and no railroad linking them to the commu-nities that lay in pockets below. this relative isolation allowed both town and school to develop strong character through overcoming adversity and created a unique heritage for both. Boone is now a bustling university town characterized by beautiful mountain scenery, distinct four-season weather, mountain heritage culture and casual living – and it is the center of tourism and commerce for Watauga County and the surrounding High Coun-try. Outdoor activities, cultural events, fine dining and unique shopping bring visitors from all over the world to experience the friendly, welcoming face of this mountain town. Boone enjoys a low rate of unemployment with the university as its top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction. Boone is a year-round playground for business meetings and conferences, as well as leisure. the cool summers, dazzling colors of fall and serene winters offer something for every nature lover.

an unusually wide array of quality arts and cultural programming enhance the Boone community. the university’s an appalachian summer Festival, a month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2009. Notable performers include lily tomlin, Branford Marsalis, Paul taylor Dance Company, london City Opera, andre Watts, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, appalachian hosts the Performing arts series with artists such as Garrison keillor and the National symphony Orchestra. the jewel of downtown Boone is the university’s turchin Center for the Visual arts. It features six gal-lery spaces and a robust community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of new and historically important artwork, and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the finest artists of the region. Boone offers an uncommon quality of life. that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.

director of Athletics charlie cobb

In his first four years at appalachian state University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has led the department to unparalleled success.

the many achievements enjoyed by appalachian athletics during the first 48 months of Cobb’s tenure include: • ThreeNCAADivisionIfootballnationalchampionships — marking the first time that any program has ever won three- consecutive NCaa Division I Football Championship subdivision (FCs — formerly Division I-aa) and the first NCaa football titles ever won by a team from the state of North Carolina at any level. • Shatteringregular-seasonattendancerecordsat“TheRock” with a school-record 28,227 fans per game piling into kidd Brewer stadium during the 2008 regular season — more than 140 percent of the stadium’s ‘08 seating capacity of 16,650. • A298-percentincreaseinfootballseason-ticketsalessincehis arrival in 2005. • Four-consecutiveCommissioner’sCupchampionships— recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the southern Conference. • TwoGermannCupchampionships—recognizingthetopoverall women’s sports program in the southern Conference. • 35percentoftheathleticsdepartment’sstudentsmakingthe academic Honor Roll (minimum GPa of 3.25). • Fiveteams(men’sbasketball,women’scrosscountry,fieldhockey, women’s indoor and outdoor track and field) earning public recognition awards, based on being among the nation’s top 10 percent in their respective sports based on academic Progress Rate (aPR) scores. • TheYosefClub,whichprovidesscholarshipsforstudent-athletes, raising nearly $2.5 million in 2008-09 — reaching the $2 million threshold for the second-straight year time and up over $1.8 million from the year before Cobb’s arrival. • Appalachian’sathleticsannualbudgetincreasingfrom$7.5 million in Cobb’s first year to $11 million in 2009-10.

additionally, Cobb has spearheaded appalachian’s $50 million facilities enhance-ment campaign, which will come to fruition this fall with the completion of the centerpiece of the campaign, the 120,000-square-foot kidd Brewer stadium Complex. the seven-story complex, located behind kBs’s west stands, includes new football offices and locker room, a strength and conditioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all asU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 suites the facilities enhancements has also included other significant renovations to the Rock. a new ticket plaza, which serves as a grand entrance to the stadium, as well as ornamental fencing that replaced the chain-link barriers that used to surround the stadium and field were completed before the 2007 season, while a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and substantial upgrades to the east and south concourses were com-pleted prior the ‘08 campaign. In addition to the renovations to appalachian’s most visible athletics facility, the campaign has also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball (Jim and Bettie smith stadium), softball (sywassink/lloyd Family stadium) and soccer (at the ted Mackorell soc-cer Complex), as well as the apps’ first-ever indoor practice facility (sofield Family Indoor Practice Facility) and renovations to Varsity Gym that have upgraded the facility to a premier practice and competition venue for asU basketball, indoor track and field, volleyball and wrestling. While Cobb is quick to point out the “total team effort” put forth to achieve the many successes that have been enjoyed since he began his tenure as asU’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 41-year-old Cobb that has steered the Mountaineers to new heights. Prior to his arrival in Boone, Cobb was a member of the athletics department at North Carolina state University from 1998-2005. a four-year football letterwinner at NC state from 1987-90, Cobb served as the Wolf-pack’s senior associate athletics director for external operations for the seven years prior to his arrival in Boone. In that role, he oversaw NC state’s marketing, ticket operations, media relations and student-athlete development operations, as well as serving on the depart-ment’s compact strategic planning initiative, gender equity and facilities committees. During his tenure, NC state increased football season-ticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. the combined ticket revenues ac-counted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more

than $6 million for the department. In addition, Cobb served as NC state’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCaa men’s basketball first and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the southeast region of the NCaa women’s soccer com-mittee. Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the atlanta sports Council, the Chick-Fil-a Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. as an assistant executive director for the atlanta sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCaa men’s basketball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl. as sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the southeastern Conference football championship, the seC and atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCaa men’s basketball championship events, Georgia High school association football playoffs, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events. Cobb graduated with honors with a B.a. in business administration from NC state in 1990. a second-team all-aCC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-aCC selection and collected the prestigious Jim tatum award, presented to the aCC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship. after receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the aCC and NFl Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992. Cobb is married to the former lindsay Brecher, who was an all-aCC goalkeeper for NCsU women’s soccer from 1988-90. they have an 11-year-old son, Harrison, and a eight-year-old daughter, Branan.
