4 Season Outlook A new era begins this season for the Delaware State women s basketball team. The Lady Hornets bid farewell at the end of last season to one of the most successful senior classes in recent team history. The departed seniors Raquel Collier, Katreem Palmer and Ashlee Burbage helped lead the team to a overall record, including a mark in Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) games. During the trio s tenure, DSU made two MEAC Tournament championship game appearances, capturing the league title and reaching the NCAA Tournament for the first time in Collier left as the Lady Hornets sixth all-time scorer with nearly 1500 points, while Palmer and Burbage tallied more than 950 points each. The Lady Hornets return 10 players from last year s squad, although just fivewere regulars in the rotation. Head Coach Ed Davis hopes to make up in depth and athleticism what his team may lack in experience. Davis squads are typically strong on defense, and this year should be no exception. The Lady Hornets have led the MEAC in scoring defense in each of the last six seasons. Topping the list of return players is guard Keyhana Wakefield (sr., 5-8), who is in her second year on the squad after two seasons at George Mason University. The versatile Wakefield was in the top three on the Lady Hornets in seven major categories last season, ranking third on the team in scoring (8.7 ppg) and points (277), first in assists (92) and assists-to-turnover ratio (1.00), and second in steals (54), blocks (13) and three-point field goals (18). Two of the MEAC s top defensive players also return Guards/Swing Players Pos Cl Ht Hometown Alexis Abraham G So. 5-9 Bowie, Md. Tonya Clark G Fr. 5-9 Virginia Beach, Va.

Denyse Moore G Fr. 5-8 Newport News, Va. Morgan Rowland F Fr. 5-9 Albany, NY Jameka Smith G/F Sr Woodbridge, Va. Keyhana Wakefield G Sr. 5-8 Albany, N.Y. for the Lady Hornets. Center Thea Littlepage (jr., 6-2) was second in the MEAC in blocks at 1.6 per game last season. She holds the school record for blocks in a game, swatting away six shots in a contest in each of the last two seasons. During the season, Littlepage led the team in rebounding (7.4 pg), while averaging 3.3 points-pergame. Guard/forward J a m e k a S m i t h (sr., 5-10) ranked among the MEAC leaders in steals in each of the last two seasons. She was also sixth on the team in scoring at 4.4 points-per-game a year ago. Smith will likely be called on to increase her scoring this season. She showed off her offensive skills by scoring a team-high 15 points in the Lady Hornets MEAC Tournament win over Morgan State last season. Two players who were freshmen on the MEAC championship squad return for their third season on the club. Speedy point guard Selena Galloway (jr., 5-8) shook off a slow start to finish fifth on the team in scoring (5.1 ppg) and fourth in three-point field (15) during the campaign. As a freshman, she averaged 7.2 points, while the team was 13-4 after she was inserted into the starting line-up. 4

5 Season Outlook Head Coach Power forward Ashley Thompson (jr., 6-0) has been a reliable reserve since joining the team. Last season, she averaged 2.9 points and was third on the team with 11 blocks. Five players who saw limited action in their first year with the team last season are expected to play bigger roles during the campaign. Post players Brittany Washington (so., 6-1), Sade Bowen (sr., 6-10 and Candice Stewart (so., 5-11), along with guards this season Cortney Crockett (so., 5-6) and Samantha Koonce (r-fr., 5-7) will compete for more playing time this season after gaining valuable Division I experience last year. The newcomers are expected to add quickness and athleticism to the team. Center Alex Stewart (jr., 6-2), sister of DSU sophomore Candice Stewart, joins the team after sitting out the season following her transfer from North Carolina-Wilmington. During the season at UNC-Wilmington, Stewart was third on the team in scoring (7.9 ppg) and rebounding (5.1 pg), while leading the squad with 27 blocks. Alexis Abraham (so. 5-9), a transfer from Towson University, brings a three-point shooting threat to the team. Sonia Johnson (fr., 5-10) is projected as a big-time scorer from the guard or forward positions. A McDonald s All-America nominee, she tallied 1,670 points during her career at Heritage High School in Virginia. Tonya Clark (fr., 5-9) is a solid all-around. She was the conference Defensive Player-of-the-Year, while averaging 11 points, 7.5 rebounds and four assists per game as a senior at Princess Anne HS in Virginia Beach, Va. Denyse Moore (fr., 5-8) will give the Lady Hornets much needed size at the guard position. The schedule is one of the toughest in team history. Contests against Atlantic Coast Conference, Big East and two Big Ten opponents highlight the slate. The 29-game schedule includes 17 road games, including visits to Atlantic Coast Conference power Maryland, Big East member Syracuse and Big Ten foes Ohio State and Michigan State. This schedule is as tough as our slate, which featured No. 2 North Carolina, UCLA and Texas A&M, said Davis. Our non-conference schedule will certainly be a challenge, but hopefully makes us stronger for the MEAC race. Post Players Pos Cl Ht Hometown Sade Bowen F 6-1 Sr. Orange, N.J.

44 MID-EASTERN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE University and Winston-Salem State University. The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), a NCAA Division I Conference, is in its 38th year of operation heading into the academic school year. Housed in the Armada Hoffler Tower at Town Center of Virginia Beach, Virginia, the MEAC is made up of 12 outstanding, historically black institutions across the Atlantic coastline: Bethune- Cookman University, Coppin State University, Delaware State University, Florida A&M University, Hampton University, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, Norfolk State University, North Carolina A&T State University, South Carolina State HISTORY In 1969, a bold ad hoc group of innovators long associated with intercollegiate athletics met in Durham, N.C., to discuss the feasibility of organizing a new conference. Dissected from these discussions, a steering and planning committee was formed to fully investigate the idea, present a detailed report with recommendations to interested collegiate institutions, and then construct a workshop to outline proposals. After adopting a program, seven institutions (Delaware State College, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University and South Carolina State College) agreed to become the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Its major objective was to establish, organize and supervise an intercollegiate athletic program among a compact group of educational institutions of high academic standards and with a sound philosophy of co-curricular activities. The conference was confirmed in 1970, kicking off its first season of competition in football in Dr. Dennis Thomas MEAC Commisisoner In 1978, a milestone was reached when the MEAC selected Kenneth A. Free to be its first full-time commissioner. He had been preceded by three interim (parttime) commissioners: Dr. Leroy Walker ( ); who later had the distinction of serving as the President of the United States Olympic Committee, the late Earl Mason ( ) and the late Dr. James Young ( ). Kenneth A. Free served the conference for 18 years before stepping down in In 1996, Charles S. Harris was named commissioner and served in the capacity until April Longtime MEAC administrator Brenda H. McCoy served two stints as Interim Commissioner, one in 1996 and again in On September 1, 2002, Dr. Dennis E. Thomas was named the commissioner and has served in the position for six years. The leagues first expansion occurred in October 1979 when Bethune-Cookman College and Florida A&M University were voted into the MEAC as new members. Original members Morgan State, North Carolina Central and Maryland Eastern Shore withdrew from the conference at the end of the 1979 fiscal year. Maryland Eastern Shore was readmitted in 1981 and Morgan State returned in Florida A&M opted to resign in 1984, but was readmitted in Coppin State College was granted admittance in 1985, becoming the ninth member institution. The MEAC expanded again in the 90 s with the inclusion of Hampton University (1995) and Norfolk State University (1997). The final expansion occurred in 2007, with the addition of Winston-Salem State University. On June 8, 1980, the MEAC was classified as a Division I conference by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The following month the MEAC received an automatic berth to the NCAA Division I Men s Basketball Championship. Currently, the league has automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason play in baseball (since 1994), men s basketball (since 1981), women s basketball (since 1982), football (since 1996), softball (since 1995), men and women s tennis (since 1998), and volleyball (since 1994).

56 Media Outlets THIS IS DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY Delaware State University looks to the future by embracing modern technology, while forming partnerships with universities around the world, along with government and private entities to better serve the higher education needs of all learners. Founded in 1891 as a land-grant institution, Delaware State University is located in the state capital of Dover. A product of the Morrill Act of 1890, the institution was created in 1891 as a land grant institution by the 58th Delaware General Assembly and named the State College for Colored Students. When it opened it door to students for the first time in February 1892, it offered courses of studies in agriculture, chemistry, engineering, science and classical. As the institution expanded its programs and infrastructure, the name was changed to Delaware State College in 1947 and to Delaware State University in 1993.What began in the late 1800s as a 100-acres that included two buildings and a workshop has evolved into a 400-acre site that was redesigned as a pedestrian campus in the mid-1990s. The university landscape currently has more than 30 buildings that includes nine academic buildings, 10 residential halls, two dining facilities, a six-floor library, an athletics/gymnasium facility and a modern main administration building. In addition to the main campus central location in Kent County, DSU also has satellite sites in Wilmington (New Castle County) to the north and in Georgetown (Sussex County) to the south. In October 2007, the university completed construction of a new 17,000 square feet, stateof- the-art Strength and Conditioning Facility for its student-athletes, the first phase of a $21 million Student Complex project. The construction of Phase II (a newwellness Center for the general campus population and the community) and Phase III (a new Student Center) were both underway by early The two-story Wellness Center slated for completion by September 2009, and the student center s completion is estimated to occur by the winter of In May 2008, Delaware State University conferred a school-record 591 degrees during its 116th Commencement Exercise, including 115 honors scholars as well as the first four graduates of its Educational Leadership Doctoral Program. DSU is accredited by the Commission on Higher Education of the Middle State Association of Colleges and Schools, as well as eight specialized academic accrediting agencies. The institution has made extraordinary progress towards fulfilling his visionary goals. A new academic structure has been put in place to more effectively organize the institution s 20 departments and 86 majors under its six colleges. Over the last four years, the university has established its first five doctoral programs Interdisciplinary Mathematics and Mathematical Physics, Educational Leadership, Applied Chemistry, Neuroscience and Optics. Over that period the University has also added five new master s degree programs in the areas of Sports Administration, Nursing, Educational Leadership, Art Education and Applied Optics. Currently the institution offers 63 undergraduate degrees, 22 master degrees and five doctoral programs. Delaware State is the only HBCU nationwide with a Department of Airway Science that has its own planes and instructors. The Airway Science Program offers degree programs in the concentration areas of aircraft systems and airway science management. The DSU students who complete the certified flight school have a 96% pass rate on FAA flight examinations and many of them land jobs with major airlines. The departments of Education, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Nursing, Social Work, and the Didactic Program in Dietetics each hold national accreditations meaning they continue to maintain the high national standards that their respective disciplines require in the preparation of future professionals in these fields. In December 2006, the College of Business earned its initial accreditation from the Association of Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International. The achievement placed DSU inthe top 10% of business schools worldwide to possess the accreditation, which confirms that the College of Business maintains the highest international standards established for business schools around the world. The institution s William C. Jason Library is the largest repository of books and reference materials in Lower Delaware, containing more than 310,000 printed volumes. Along with its collection of micro books, microfiche, audio-visual volumes, bound periodicals, as well as its offerings of electronic books and journals, the library has a total holding of nearly 546,791. The university is rapidly expanding its global reach to facilitate faculty/students exchanges, joint conferences, and research collaborations. Over the past few years, DSU has signed partnership agreements with institutions of higher education in Nigeria, Bangladesh, Serbia, Egypt, Cuba, China, England, Mauritania, Senegal and Uganda. These partnerships are added to the existing agreements DSU has with institutions in the countries of Namibia, Mexico, France, Senegal, Panama, Trinidad, and the Netherlands. Connections to the community thrive under DSU s Arts Center/Gallery, which annually hosts Scholastic Arts and Writing Awards Exhibition, a 56

57 THIS IS DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY statewide middle and high school program. DSU also serves as host sponsor and home base of VSA Arts of Delaware, an arts program for disabled citizens. The center is also the site of a variety of art exhibitions each year. The Colleges of Mathematics, Natural Science and Technology, College of Agriculture and Related Sciences, and the College of Humanities and Social Sciences have collaborated with the State of Delaware and several other institutions of higher education to become part of an Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research in Delaware. The DSU team of researchers received $1,936,000 in grant funding in April of 2005 to support the multiyear initiative and develop an Integrated Ecosystems Studies Program at the university. A Dual Admissions Program now allows students enrolled at Delaware Technical and Community College to transfer seamlessly from their successfully completed two-year program to a connected undergraduate degree program at DSU. Many DSU faculty members are conducting important research, enhancing DSU s landgrant mission and DSU s contributions to the nation s research enterprise, while at the same time enhancing the learning of students by giving them hands-on experience in the research work. A sampling of ongoing research activity includes: The Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources is studying the feeding preferences of the American Oyster, the use of flow cytometry and sample preservation in Marine Phytoplankton analyses, harmful algal impacts on Oyster restoration, and enhancing the aquaculture and aquatic sciences program at DSU. In another research project, the same department is studying the use of native oyster as a biological filter that removes excess sediment, algae, nitrogen and phosphorus that pollute the Inland Bays in Sussex County, Delaware. The department of Mathematics is currently conducting research for the U.S. Department of Defense in an effort to improve penetrating radar capability to better protect troop in Iraq, Afghanistan and other areas of wartime conflict. Through a $5 million grant from the National Science Foundation, DSU has established a Center for Research and Education in Optics Science and its Applications that will expand its existing research and capacity for optics technology enhancements and development. Research projects include the study of optical waves, the development of novel applied laser spectroscopy and data mining techniques as well as other research. The DSU Applied Optics Center is investigating novel techniques in integrating various lightweight photonics and optical elements through its research in ground penetrating radar imaging, signal processing in data mining, and other areas. The research to take place from has been funded by $4 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Defense. Federal funding has enabled the DSU Department of Chemistry to establish a Center for Hydrogen Storage Research. The department is researching ways in which hydrogen may be stored more effectively, which could lead to the development of energy-saving alternative fuel sources. The department is also researching and developing technologies to effectively recycle platinum and DuPont-manufactured Nafion from end-of-life fuel cell systems. A biotechnology project currently underway to research how the wolf snail brain works that will assist in the further development of a model system for studying neurobiology of sensory systems and learning. The Department of Biology has established a virus and molecular biology research laboratory where studies are being conducted on how plant viruses could be used to help in the application of plant vaccines. With the Atlantic sturgeon s survival as a species challenged by poor water quality and past excessive fishing practices, a Natural Resources project is researching whether the Atlantic sturgeon is still spawning in the Delaware River area, which could lead to ways of restoring the population of the endangered fish. DSU has established a Scanning Electron Microscopy Facility that will provide science faculty and students with an ultra-high magnification capability for its research and teaching activities. The state-ofthe-art SEM can magnify three-dimensional objects and capture the record image areas as small as one-billionth. In addition to Division I-AA football, the university fields NCAA Division I teams in men s and women s basketball, cross country, baseball, softball, track and field, tennis, wrestling, volleyball, soccer, bowling as well as its newest sport women s equestrian. During the academic year, Delaware State celebrated its first Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference football championship since The 2007 Hornets also made the first NCAA playoff appearance in team history, was recognized as American SportsWire Black College National Champs and ranked 15th in the final poll of all Football Championship Subdivision teams. The Hornets also celebrated their first MEAC softball championship and NCAA Tournament appearance last season. Softball senior Jessica Chrabaszcz became the first DSU student- athlete selected to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All- America First Team. The equestrian team, in just its second year of competition, competed in the Varsity Equestrian National Championships in Waco, Texas., while the bowling team ranked 11th in the final National Tenpin Coaches Association weekly poll. With a school-record 82 academic all-conference honorees, Delaware State University topped the MEAC Commissioner s All- Academic List. The all-academic team recognized 585 studentathletes from the conference s 12 member institutions who achieved academic success during the academic school year. It marked the first time that Delaware State led all schools in the yearly list of MEAC scholar-athletes. Working with the university s Division of Libraries and the athletics department academic support staff, Delaware State plans to launch a new Student- Athlete Academic Enrichment Center in the William Jason Library this fall. The NCAA Division I Committee on Athletics Certification announced on July 31, 2006 that Delaware State University s Department of Athletics has been fully re-certified as an institution that operates in substantial conformity with the operating principles of the governing certification body. 57
