The University

Eastern Kentucky University is known as the Campus Beauti-ful, and for good reason.

The EKU campus is one of the most scenic college campuses in the nation and it features several striking features. From the James E. van Peursem Music Pavilion and the Ravine, to the Chapel of Meditation and the Keen Johnson Building, EKU features some of the most diverse and att ractive locales on any college campus anywhere.

However strong Eastern Kentucky University’s reputation is for its visual aesthetics, the real character of the University can be found in its students, faculty and staff , and outstanding academic programs.

EKU off ers more than 160 degree programs and features an excellent 17-1 student-to-faculty ratio. The University serves more than 16,500 students, which represent almost all 120 counties in Kentucky, all 50 states and over 60 countries worldwide.

The University, which celebrated its centennial in the spring of 2006, had humble beginnings. EKU’s origins can be traced back to a confl ict between the northern and southern branches of Ken-tucky’s Presbyterian Church.

A group of alumni and supporters from the Southern branch lost control of Centre College in Danville and set out to start their own institution of higher learning. From that confl ict, Central Col-lege was chartered in 1873 and the school opened in September of 1874.

Financial problems led to Central College’s consolidation into Centre College in 1901, but Richmond’s place in higher education did not move with Central College. Walters Collegiate Institute of-fered a preparatory curriculum for college-bound men and served as a transitional institution between Central College and what would become Eastern Kentucky University.

In 1906, the Kentucky General Assembly approved a bill that would establish two normal schools in the eastern and western parts of the state in order to prepare teachers to enter the class-room. The eastern school, which was located in Richmond, was called the Eastern Kentucky State Normal School, later evolving into the regional institution now known as Eastern Kentucky University.

Modern-day EKU now encompasses three branch campuses in Corbin, Danville and Manchester. The University also boasts one of the state’s strongest distance learning programs, giving students from around the world an opportunity to receive an EKU education.

EKU is also home to the College of Justice and Safety, which educates students from around the world. As EKU’s Program of Distinction, the College of Justice and Safety is involved in numer-ous worldwide research projects. It also educates a vast majority of the law enforcement offi cers in the Commonwealth.

The University also boosts 17 championship sports at the NCAA’s Division I level, competing in the Ohio Valley Confer-ence. The Colonels’ history includes several national champion-ships, conference titles and NCAA Tournament appearances. However, the best is yet to come as the school’s athletic depart-ment is committ ed to ensuring that EKU student-athletes are given the necessary resources to continue to compete at a national level.

All told, Eastern Kentucky University provides a safe and at-tractive environment in which its students can learn and become productive members of society. The lessons learned at EKU will follow students for a lifetime and the performance of its graduates will, in turn, continue to enhance the already strong regional and national reputation of the University.

With more than 100 buildings in Richmond on the National Register of Historic Places and three areas on the National Regis-ter of Historic Districts, it is one of Kentucky’s fi nest restored 19th Century commercial districts.

Arts and entertainment take center-stage with the Eastern Kentucky University theatre program. They off er several shows each year from classical theatre to modern musicals.

There is never any lack of recreational activities in Richmond. An array of parks and recreational centers across the city off ers something for everyone. Lake Reba Recreational complex includes golf, litt le league baseball and softball fi elds, soccer, fi shing and a water park which opened in the summer of 2008.

If it’s shopping you want, downtown Richmond can accom-modate you. Locally owned businesses line the historic streets of downtown Richmond with everything from fi ne antiquities to exquisite jewelry. There is a wide variety of stores at the brand new Richmond Centre as well. The outdoor mall off ers shoppers convenience and style.

Dining isn’t hard to fi nd either. Family-owned and major chain restaurants give Richmond a unique variety of menus.

Never far from mainstream, Richmond off ers the comforts of simplicity with the convenience of the city.

Only 29 miles from Lexington and the Bluegrass Airport, Richmond is easily accessible to all travelers. Interstate 75 is a major artery of both state and national motor transportation. Rich-mond’s location on I-75 makes it an important factor in making the city a commercial hub.

In fact, the ease of travel to and from Richmond makes the city an ideal spot for those who enjoy outdoor activities.

Fort Boonesborough State Park is located only 12 miles from EKU’s campus, while Natural Bridge State Park (63 miles) and Cumberland Falls State Park (100 miles) are located nearby.

Also within easy driving distance of Richmond are the Ken-tucky Horse Park, the state capital in Frankfort, Herrington Lake, My Old Kentucky Home at Bardstown, White Hall State Shrine and thoroughbred horse racing at Keeneland.

A Brief Richmond HistoryRichmond was founded in 1798 by Colonel John Miller, a

Revolutionary War soldier. In 1798, the Kentucky Legislature authorized the moving of the Madison County seat from nearby Milford to land owned by Colonel Miller.

The move was bitt erly opposed by about 300 residents of the Milford area and a fi ght to retain the seat resulted between Dave Kennedy, who represented the Milford location, and William Kearly, who represented the new site.

Although history does not record the results of the brawl, the county approved the move in March of 1798 and two acres of land were purchased from Colonel Miller. Court was held in his barn.

On July 4, 1798, the site was offi cially named Richmond in honor of Miller’s birthplace, Richmond, Va.

2010-11 Season Preview

The Eastern Kentucky University men’s basketball team will have an entirely new look in 2010-11 as 10 of the 15 players on the roster are either new to the program or did not see any game action last season. Four transfers and fi ve freshmen have to integrate themselves into the EKU program.

“We had a really good summer session, especially the second one,” Eastern head coach Jeff Neubauer said. “There is still a lot of learning to be done, but the chal-lenge now is to get all of the players up to speed with the Division I game and to get everyone on the same page.”

There are a few familiar faces who return from the 2010 postseason trip to the College Basketball Invitational. Senior Justin Stommes was one of just two OVC players to total at least 400 points and 100 assists in 2009-10. Fellow senior Josh Daniel brings another veteran presence to the table. Senior Spencer Perrin and sophomore Willie Cruz can both rebound and are adept at passing the basketball. Meanwhile, junior Joshua Jones does all of the litt le things well on the court.

“Our returnees do give us a level of comfort heading into preseason practices,” Neubauer said. “They give us a good starting point and will need to help the newcomers learn our system.”

As always under coach Neubauer, the Eastern Kentucky off ense will revolve around unselfi sh play and the ability to shoot the basketball. The Colonels ranked second nationally in three-pointers made

Four seniors hope to lead the Colonels back to the postseason for the second straight year – Josh Daniel, Devin McDon-ald, Spencer Perrin and Justin Stommes.

Daniel, a 6-5 guard, was a member of the last EKU team to qualify for the NCAA tournament, back in 2007. A steady three-point shooter, Daniel’s role on the team has continually grown since his freshman season.

McDonald spent last season playing for the University of New Orleans. The 6-1 true point guard could be an important piece to the success of the 2010-11 team.

Perrin is probably the team’s best defender and rebounder. His athleticism is hard to match in the Ohio Valley Confer-ence. The 6-6 forward averaged a team-high 4.9 rebounds per game as a junior.

Stommes is quickly closing in on 1,000 career points. The 6-7 guard needs just 39 more tallies to become the 30th Colonel to reach that milestone.

Only one of the three juniors was on the roster last season – Joshua Jones. The 6-4 guard can fi ll a variety of roles on the perim-eter for coach Neubauer. As a sophomore, Jones ranked fourth on the team in scoring (8.9 ppg) and second in assists (2.5 apg).

Juniors Jeff Allgood and Jaron Jones are new additions to the roster. Allgood, a 6-2 guard, is another long-range threat while Jones, a 6-6 guard, adds length and athleti-cism to the guard position.

Willie Cruz and Ruud de Jong make up the sophomore class. Cruz, a 6-4 guard, is a crafty rebounder and excellent passer who posted a 3-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio in 33 games as a freshman. De Jong did not see any playing time last year, but his 6-8 frame

The 2010-11 schedule does not give the Colonels much time to work on their cohe-sion. EKU begins the year at a three-day tournament hosted by Loyola Chicago on Nov. 12-14. There, Eastern will face one of the bett er Horizon League teams in Loyola, an up-and-coming Missouri Valley Confer-ence team in Indiana State and UTPA.

In early December, Eastern has the op-portunity to play an important home game against OVC favorite Murray State. The Racers were one possession away from advancing to the 2010 NCAA Sweet 16.

As always, the Colonels take to the road to face some of the top teams in the nation. This year, EKU travels to Minnesota (Dec. 11) and Georgia (Dec. 31).

This year’s OVC tournament will feature a new format as the top eight league teams all advance to Nashville with a chance to earn a berth in the NCAA tournament.

“I think this is a great change for the OVC,” Neubauer said. “College basketball is a tournament game. I think the entire OVC tournament should be played at a neutral venue just like the NCAAs.”

The Outlook (9.9 per game) and 11th nationally in three-point shooting (39.7 percent) one year ago. Stommes, Jones and Daniel are all proven shooters who fi t well into the off ense. Newcomers Jeff Allgood, Jeff Johnson and Ryan Parsons have the ability to hit the long range shots as well.

Players are needed to step up in the post area. Perrin is the lone returning true forward on the roster. Johnson, Taylor Filipek and Deverin Muff are three new additions who will batt le for playing time alongside of Perrin. All three players are true freshmen and will need to adjust to the pace and play of collegiate basketball very quickly.

“We will spend lots of time on defense in the preseason,” Neubauer said. “We have to be a bett er one-on-one defensive team this year. On off ense, we have to get everyone to understand the system.”

The Players

gives the team a big body to play in the post. The freshman class features fi ve suc-

cessful players at the high school level. Taylor Filipek, a 6-6 guard/forward, aver-aged 20 ppg, 9 rpg and 5 apg as a senior at Willmar High in Minnesota. Jeff Johnson, a 6-8 forward, was a part of the 2009 Illinois 3A state championship team at Centennial High. Deverin Muff is a 6-8 forward who fi nished second on his team in both scor-ing and rebounding as a senior.

The fi nal two freshmen – Jabs Newby and Ryan Parsons – are guards. The 6-2 Newby is more of a point guard who can also slash to the basket to score. Parsons, standing at 6-3, is an outside shooting threat.

Mike DiNunno, a 6-0 guard who spent the previous two years at Northern Illinois, has to sit out this season due to NCAA transfer rules.

Jeff NeubauerJeff Neubauer

Head Coach • 6th Year at EKU (87-70)

Alma Mater: La Salle, 1993

The 2010-11 season will be Jeff Neubauer’s sixth year as head coach at Eastern Kentucky University. The Colonels have twice reached the postseason in fi ve years under Neubauer and twice reached the 20-win plateau. Last March, EKU earned a spot in the 2010 College Basketball Invitational thanks in part to sett ing a program single-season record with 15 home victories.

In Neubauer’s second season at EKU, the Colonels went danc-ing in the 2007 NCAA tournament after defeating Austin Peay in the Ohio Valley Conference championship game, 63-62. The 2006-07 Eastern squad won the OVC title without a fi rst team all-conference player on the roster.

“We have been very fortunate here at EKU to att ract and coach a group of outstanding young men,” Neubauer said. “We have been incredibly pleased with the way that our teams have compet-ed and represented the University throughout our fi rst fi ve years. It is our intention to continue to build on the unselfi shness and consistency that we have continually encouraged here at EKU.”

Neubauer, 39, is quickly moving up the all-time EKU coaching win chart. He is currently fourth on that list with 87 victories and a .554 career winning percentage at Eastern Kentucky. This past season, the Colonels ranked among the top 15 Division I schools nationally (out of 334) in three-point shooting (11th at 39.7 per-cent), three-pointers made per game (second with 9.9 per game) and fewest turnovers per game (third at 9.7).

In 2008-09, the Colonels were especially impressive against op-ponents from the Mid-American Conference (MAC) with victories over Ball State, Ohio and 2009 NCAA tournament participant, Ak-ron. Former EKU player Mike Rose led the nation in three-point shooting that year at 48.1 percent.

Under Neubauer’s guidance, the Colonels went on an amaz-ing run at the end of 2006-07, winning 11 of 13 games to earn a

spot in the NCAA tournament. During that stretch, EKU shot 47.5 percent from the fl oor while holding the opposition to just 59.8 points per game.

The 2006-07 Eastern Kentucky team led the nation in fewest fouls per game (13.6) and also paced the Ohio Valley Conference in fi eld goal percentage (46.2).

In his fi rst season as head coach, Neubauer and the 2005-06 Colonels qualifi ed for the season-ending OVC tournament. Along the way, EKU tallied fi ve conference road victories, the most by an Eastern squad in over 30 years. The Colonels nearly pulled off a dramatic upset over Big Ten opponent Wisconsin at the Paradise Jam tournament in the U.S. Virgin Islands, but fell to the Badgers in double-overtime.

Neubauer has coached six all-conference players, an OVC Co-Freshman of the Year, an OVC tournament MVP and the pro-gram’s top two all-time leading scorers in his fi ve years at Eastern Kentucky.

Before arriving at Eastern Kentucky, Neubauer served three seasons as the top assistant at West Virginia under head coach John Beilein where he helped fuel the Mountaineers’ rapid rise to national prominence.

The rebuilding process at West Virginia culminated in the Mountaineers’ dramatic run through the 2005 NCAA tournament. WVU earned triumphs over fi ve top-20 programs in the regular season that year before reaching the Big East tournament’s cham-pionship game. Then, after upsett ing second-seeded Wake Forest in double overtime in the NCAA tournament’s second round, the Mountaineers knocked off Bobby Knight’s Texas Tech team in the Sweet 16. The spirited march came to a halt when the University of Louisville prevailed in overtime to complete a highly-contested Elite Eight batt le. West Virginia fi nished 2004-05 ranked 12th in the country.

In 2003-04, West Virginia secured its fi rst NIT victories since 1997 while also defeating a pair of nationally-ranked opponents.

Neubauer followed Beilein to Morgantown, W.Va., in 2002 after the two enjoyed similar success together for fi ve years at the

The Jeff Neubauer File

University of Richmond, where the Spiders won 100 games. While at Richmond, Neubauer helped recruit and coach numerous all-conference players, a pair of league rookies of the year, a confer-ence player of the year and a student-athlete of the year.

In Neubauer’s second season at Richmond, the Spiders quali-fi ed for the NCAA tournament and then proceeded to surprise SEC foe South Carolina in the opening round, 62-61. Richmond earned a winning record in fi ve of the six years Neubauer was on staff while notching NIT victories in both 2001 and 2002.

“I’ve been doing this for 30 years and I’ve had a lot of assis-tants, and Jeff ’s basketball IQ is just terrifi c,” Beilein said. “He understands the game and is not afraid to be innovative, but he also knows how important it is to be fundamentally sound.”

Prior to Richmond, Neubauer served three seasons as a gradu-ate assistant coach at The Citadel, where he also earned an MBA degree.

A native of Slidell, La., Neubauer was an outstanding student-athlete at La Salle University in Philadelphia, where he played point guard under head coach William “Speedy” Morris. The Explorers went 30-2 and earned an NCAA tournament berth in Neubauer’s freshman season. La Salle accumulated two more post-season berths and an overall record of 83-36 during his four years on the squad. Neubauer, team captain as a senior, earned honorable mention GTE All-Academic accolades as a cum laude graduate in fi nance.

He is married to the former Karen Feret of Hackett stown, N.J.

“Give Eastern Kentucky credit because they kicked us for about 12 to 14 minutes there and we were on our heels off ensively. We were turning the basketball over and we could not stop them defensively.”--Roy Williams, North Carolina head basketball coachAfter EKU went on a 32-9 run midway through the game in the fi rst round of the 2007 NCAA Tournament

“I watched Jeff through the years as an assistant at The Citadel, Richmond and West Virginia, and he has all of the tools to be an outstanding head coach. Jeff understands the game, how it should be played, and he knows how to teach it. Under Jeff Neu-bauer, all fi ve guys will play as one on both ends of the fl oor, and they will be disciplined and hard to beat. Eastern Kentucky hired one heck of a coach in Jeff Neubauer.”--Jay Bilas, ESPN basketball analyst

“Jeff is refreshing and great for the business. He’s a man full of integrity, work-ethic and he’s passionate for the game of colle-giate basketball. He will never get out-worked, he will be totally dedicated to EKU and he will fi nd a way to get his team into the NCAA Tourney!”--Joe Mihalich, Niagara head basketball coach

“He understands the game and is not afraid to be innovative, but he also knows how important it is to be fundamentally sound. [Colonel supporters] are really going to be pleased. He is absolutely ready, and he’ll do it the right way.”--John Beilein, Michigan head basketball coach

EKU in McBrayer Arena

Alumni Coliseum (Paul S. McBrayer Arena) has been the home arena for East-ern Kentucky University basketball since the 1963-64 season when the team moved from the Weaver Health Building where it had a record of 225-51 in the previous 31 years.

Located on a southern slope of the EKU campus, Alumni Coliseum forms the nucleus of a thoughtfully-planned sports complex. The Coliseum is a massive physical plant and features a great triumph in architectural design with its wooden laminated cross-arched roof — the world’s largest of its kind — spanning 309 feet and providing an unobstructed view of events held in the main auditorium. A total of 616,276 board feet of lumber form the 170 beams and roof, which arches gracefully 81 feet above the fl oor level. The wood is southern pine fi nished in its natural beauty.

In addition to the main auditorium, which seats 6,500 for basketball games and 8,000 for other programs, the building con-tains four basketball courts in an auxiliary gymnasium on the east end, numerous athletics offi ces, both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, shower and locker rooms, a projection room, an athletic train-ing room and a weight room. A hydraulic-operated stage is located at the east end of the main arena fl oor.

Since the basketball team began playing its games in Alumni Coliseum, the Colo-nels have compiled an overall record of 393 wins and 203 losses. In the 47-year his-tory of McBrayer Arena, EKU has suff ered only eight losing seasons on the fl oor.

Eastern was a perfect 14-0 in McBrayer Arena in 1990-91 and nearly achieved the same feat on four other occasions, when the Colonels lost only one home game.

Before the start of the 2006-07 season, the basketball fl oor was redone with new Eastern athletic logos, brand new score-boards were added above the north and south bleachers and new shot clocks were installed above the basketball rims. The arena lighting was updated prior to the start of the 2009-10 campaign.

Season Highs

2010 College Basketball Invitational

Eastern Kentucky was one of 16 teams invited to play in this postseason tour-nament. The Colonels drew an opening round home game against College of Charleston on St. Patrick’s Day, but unfor-tunately the Cougars edged EKU, 82-79. Senior Josh Taylor tallied a career-high 28 points in his fi nal game as a Colonel.

The 2009-10 season was fi lled with both ups and downs for the Eastern Kentucky University basketball team, but in the end there were certainly more ups for the Colonels as they advanced to a postseason tournament for the second time in fi ve years under head coach Jeff Neubauer. Below are some more highlights from the 2009-10 campaign …

20-Win Plateau

Eastern Kentucky reached the 20-win pla-teau for just the seventh time in program history and the second time under head coach Jeff Neubauer. The Colonels fi nished 20-13 overall.

New OVC Record, Again

For the second consecutive year, Eastern established a new OVC single-season record for three-pointers made (327). The Colonels made at least 10 three-pointers in 19 games, including a season-high 17 long range shots in the victory over West Virginia Wesleyan.

Home, Sweet Home

Eastern won a program record 15 games in the friendly confi nes of McBrayer Arena. The Colonels won all three home games during CBE Classic in late November, including a 74-72 thriller over UTSA which came courtesy of a late Justin Stommes three-pointer.

Double-Digit OVC Victories

Eastern Kentucky went 11-7 against conference competition, marking the sixth straight year the Colonels have posted double-fi gure league victories. Only Mur-ray State (seven) has a longer active streak.

Taylor Leaves Mark on Program

Senior Josh Taylor, a second team All-OVC honoree, played in 127 games throughout his collegiate career, the most ever by an EKU player. The native of Pitt sburgh, Pa., also became the 29th Colonel to reach 1,000 career points when he scored 20 in the win over Winthrop on Feb. 20. Taylor conclud-ed his EKU career with 1,058 points.

In the National Stats

The Colonels were ranked among the top-15 nationally in three-pointers made per game (2nd – 9.9), three-point shooting (11th – 39.7 percent) and fewest turnovers per game (3rd – 9.7).

MVP Honors for Stommes

Junior Justin Stommes was named MVP of the CBE Classic (Richmond sub-regional). Stommes led the team in scoring (14.2 ppg) and assists (3.5 apg). He was also one of just two OVC players to total at least 400 points and 100 assists in 2009-10.

BracketBuster Success

Thanks to a 20-point win over Big South foe Winthrop on Feb. 20, Eastern Kentucky improved to 3-2 in BracketBuster games. The Colonels have won their BracketBuster game three years running.

Josh Taylor scored a career-high 28 points in his fi nal game as a Colonel in the College Basketball Invitational.

Beth DeBaucheOVC Commissioner

Kyle Schwartz Asst. Commissioner for Media Relations

Entering its 63rd year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. For only the second time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois Uni-versity Edwardsville as the league’s 11th mem-ber in 2008. The move expanded the OVC’s geographical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the fi rst change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Samford) in 2003.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28. She is currently one of just fi ve females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-Ameri-can Conferences.

The OVC’s proud history past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Ken-tucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, fi rst broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC.

In 1955, the OVC became only the sec-ond six-member league nationally to earn an automatic bid to the prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, which, at that time, was limited to only 24 partici-pants. The Conference quickly proved worthy of that bid, as Morehead State de-feated Marshall (107-92) and Wayne State (95-84) in the 1956 tournament.

Fifteen years later, former OVC member Western Kentucky became the fi rst and only Conference team to reach the Final Four. The Hilltoppers defeated Jackson-

ville, Kentucky and Ohio State before los-ing to Villanova in double overtime. WKU went on to fi nish in third place after beat-ing Kansas 77-75 in the consolation game.

Since that time, the OVC has recorded some of the biggest upsets in the history of the NCAA Tournament. In 2009-10, Mur-ray State made OVC history by winning a record 31 games (31-5) on its way to the league’s regular season and tournament championship. In the fi rst round of the NCAA Tournament, the No. 13 seed Rac-ers topped Vanderbilt in thrilling fashion when senior Danero Thomas hit a jumper as time expired to lift MSU to a 66-65 victory. In the second round the Racers pushed eventual national runner-up Butler to the brink before losing 54-52.

Through its 62 years, 12 teams have won or shared the league’s regular season men’s basketball title. Murray State heads the list with a conference-record 21 out-right or shared basketball crowns. Other past champions include former member Western Kentucky (19), Morehead State (9), Austin Peay (8), Eastern Kentucky (6), Tennessee Tech (5), former member Middle Tennessee (5), Tennessee State (2), former member East Tennessee State (2), Southeast Missouri (1), UT Martin (who won its fi rst in 2008-09) and former member Akron (1).

Among the coaching greats in men’s basketball have been Western Kentucky’s E.A. Diddle, who retired with 759 victories and 10 OVC titles; John Oldham, who was a member of the very fi rst All-OVC squad and went on to win seven OVC crowns during his coaching tenure at Tennessee Tech and Western Kentucky; Paul Mc-Brayer, who guided Eastern Kentucky to 219 wins and three OVC crowns; and Cal Luther, who is the only person in confer-ence history to win men’s basketball Coach

of the Year honors at two league schools – Murray State and UT Martin.

There have been an equal number of great players including Western Kentucky’s Clem Haskins, who is the only three-time OVC Player of the Year. Several players have won OVC Player of the Year honors twice: Western Kentucky’s Jim McDan-iels (1969-70 and 1970-71), Murray State’s Les Taylor (1971-72, 1972-73), Jeff Martin (1987-88, 1988-89), Popeye Jones (1989-90, 1990-91) and Marcus Brown (1994-95, 1995-96), Austin Peay’s Otis Howard (1976-77, 1977-78), Middle Tennessee’s Jerry Beck (1980-81, 1981-82), Akron’s Joe Jakubick (1982-83, 1983-84), Tennessee State’s Carlos Rogers (1992-93, 1993-94) and UT Martin’s Lester Hudson (2007-08, 2008-09).

The OVC also has the honor of being the only conference to boast the nation’s leaders in scoring, rebounding and assists all in one season. That feat was accom-plished in 1991-92 by Morehead State’s Brett Roberts (28.1 ppg), Murray State’s Popeye Jones (14.4 rpg) and Tennessee Tech’s Van Usher (8.8 apg).

In 2007-08, UT Martin guard Lester Hudson became the fi rst men’s Division I player to record a quadruple-double in a game, when he registered 25 points, 12 re-bounds, 10 assists and 10 steals in a victory over Central Baptist College.

The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basket-ball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifl e.

NCAA Tournament

Josh Daniel and the rest of the Colonels shot 66.7 percent from the fi eld in the second half against Col-lege of Charleston, but EKU still came up just short in its fi rst ever meeting with the Cougars.

Behind the eff ort of a 20-win season, Eastern Kentucky earned a berth in the 2010 College Basketball Invitational. However, the College of Charleston ended EKU’s postseason with an 82-79 victory in the opening round.

Matt Sundberg’s three-pointer with 28 sec-onds on the clock broke a 77-77 tie and gave the Cougars a lead they would not relinquish.

Senior Josh Taylor scored a career-high 28 points and connected on 4-of-8 three-pointers in the fi nal game of his Colonel career.

Both teams shot the ball well as the Colonels shot 59 percent (31-of-52) from the fi eld and 50 percent (9-of-18) from three-point range. The visiting Cougars, out of the Southern Confer-ence, shot 57 percent (29-of-51) from the fi eld and 48 percent (13-of-27) from three point range.

A bucket in the paint by Taylor tied the game at 75-75 with 1:30 remaining, but Tony White, Jr. responded on the ensuing possession with two free throws to put the Cougars ahead, 77-75. Taylor scored on the opposite end and was fouled, but missed his free throw allowing the game to stay tied at 77-all.

Sundberg then nailed a three-pointer from the left wing with 28 ticks on the clock to break the tie for good. Stommes brought the Colonels back to within one point on a put-back with 12 seconds left only to see Andrew Goudelock push the advantage back to three points with two free throws.

EKU was able to get Taylor one fi nal look at a tying three-point att empt, but the shot was slightly off target.

Colonels in the 2010 College Basketball Invitational

Darnell Dialls went 8-of-9 from the fl oor to fi nish with a season-high 17 points versus UNC.

After trailing by as many as 27 points in the fi rst half, the Eastern Kentucky men’s basketball team fought back to within four before falling to top-seeded North Carolina, 86-65, in the open-ing round of the 2007 NCAA Tournament.

Darnell Dialls led EKU with a season-high 17 points, 13 coming in the second half, includ-ing his fi rst-ever three-point fi eld goal. Adam Leonard added 14 points and a team-best three steals.

With 8:46 remaining in the fi rst half, the Tar Heels took their largest lead of the period (27) off a Ty Lawson three-point fi eld goal, but East-ern Kentucky responded with six unanswered points to ignite a 15-4 scoring run. During the six-minute span, the Tar Heels turned the ball over fi ve times and managed to get off just two shots.

Eastern Kentucky scored the fi rst seven points of the second half, cutt ing its defi cit to single digits (47-39) off a Julian Mascoll fast-break dunk, before a reverse lay-up from Mike Rose got the Colonels within four (48-44) just prior to the fi rst media timeout.

North Carolina responded with seven straight points to keep control of the contest. From there, the Tar Heels put together a few more runs to pull away from the Colonels.

Career Coaching Records 219-144 (.603) 1946-62

McBrayer, who coached at EKU from 1946-62, is the winningest coach in Eastern history. For his achievements in college athletics, he was inducted into the Ken-tucky Athletic Hall of Fame in 1987 and more recently, into the inaugural class of the EKU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2006.

A native of Anderson County, Ky., and 1930 All-American guard at the University of Kentucky, the veteran cage coach guided the Maroons from the “small college” status to a nationally-recognized basketball power.

McBrayer immediately produced at EKU as he guided Eastern to 11 consecutive victories to begin the 1946-47 season. That team went on to fi nish 21-4. Two years later, Eastern Kentucky climbed to 24th in the na-tional polls before the 1949-50 squad missed by a mere half point of fi nishing in the na-tion’s top 10 as it compiled a 16-6 record.

During his 16 seasons at Eastern, McBrayer-coached teams won three Ohio Valley Conference regular season titles and made two trips to the NCAA Tournament, losing games to Notre Dame and Louisville.

The arena inside Alumni Coliseum was formally dedicated “Paul S. McBrayer Arena” on Jan. 14, 1989.

100 Years of Basketball

Members of the EKU Men’s Basketball All-Century team were honored on the court at halftime of the Morehead State game on Jan. 23, 2010.

On Dec. 14, 2005, Eastern Kentucky University announced the creation of an Athletics Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame’s mission is to commemorate and honor student-athletes, other individu-als and teams whose accomplishments have contributed to the esteemed tradition of Colonel Athletics and whose character has refl ected positively on the University.

The inaugural class of the EKU Athletics Hall of Fame, featur-ing 38 distinguished individuals, was inducted during an evening ceremony on Nov. 3, 2006, in the Keen Johnson Ballroom. Almost 300 people att ended the induction ceremony. The honorees were also recognized prior to EKU’s home football game against Mur-ray State the following day.

The inaugural class was comprised of The Founders, a group of 25 who were previously honored at the 1974 Centennial Athlet-ics Awards Banquet, and 13 members who were chosen by a selec-tion committ ee.

The Department of Athletics accepts nominations for the Hall of Fame on a rolling basis. Nominations must be received by March 1 to be considered for that year’s class.

This year’s induction ceremony was held on Friday, Oct. 8 with the inductees also honored the next day at the home football game against Eastern Illinois.

Including the 2010 induction class, there are 12 men’s basket-ball players/coaches enshrined in the EKU Athletics Hall of Fame – Jack Adams, John Allen, James Baechtold, Eddie Bodkin, Carl Cole, Fred Lewis, Paul McBrayer, Charles Mrazovich, Ralph Rich-ardson, Goebel Ritt er, Bobby Washington and Larry Wood.

Eastern Kentucky University athletic teams were known as the Maroons until 1966 and even survived one att empt to alter the school mascot to the Leopards.

In 1963, Eastern Kentucky University President Robert Mar-tin was at a loss as to how he could create a physical “Maroon” to excite the audience. A man of vision and intelligence, Martin began searching for a mascot that would embody the glorious Bluegrass State.

He found it in the honorable Kentucky Colonel.The military title of “Colonel” had begun being used as an

honorary title in the state by the late 1800s and by 1931 the now-famous Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels had been formed.

The fi nger-lickin’ Colonel Harlan D. Sanders himself was inducted in 1935.

Like Minutemen of Mas-sachusett s and Sooners of Oklahoma, the Kentucky breed of Colonel was a unique symbol of the state and so Martin selected it to accompany the school color as Eastern’s mascot.

Further cementing the connection with Eastern was the fact that Centre Col-lege’s mascot was already the Colonel and a faction of that school had occupied the Richmond campus before Eastern’s founding.--Courtesy of The Eastern Progress
