2011-12 Men’s Basketball Roster


Season Outlook

Benedict College head men’s basketball Coach Fred Watson knows there is a big target on the Tigers this season. And the Tigers are not backing down

from the challenge. Benedict, the defending SIAC conference champions, was picked to repeat as conference champion in a poll by the league’s head coaches. Nationally, the Tigers were picked No. 13 in the preseason poll by the National As-sociation of Basketball Coaches, and were picked as the No. 6 team in the DII preseason poll by national sports publication The Sporting News. And with good reason. Benedict returns center Mar-cus Goode, who led Division II in rebounding and was second in blocked shots last season as a sophomore. The Tigers also bring back two other starters in All-Conference point guard Xavier Collier and sharpshooting guard Antrjuan Albright from last year’s 21-8 team. Also returning are four other letterwinners to go along with a collection of talented newcomers. “We embrace it, we like the expectations; we’re not going to shy away from it,” Watson said. “I think the guys are primed and ready. We’ve got a lot of returning guys, those guys are veterans, and they want those expecta-tions. This team could be really special.” But there is a price with those high preseason ex-pectations. Watson knows every team in the SIAC and their two early-season non-conference opponents will be gauging their success on how they do against Benedict. “We’ve got to be sharp every day,” Watson said. “Coming in, you’ve always got a target on your back. The good teams really want to beat you. The teams that are not as good as you really get up for those games. So you really have no days off. We’re prepared for that.” Goode, a 6-10 junior, developed into one of the most dominant big men in Division II last year. He led Bene-dict in scoring, averaging 17 points per game. His 11.6 rebounds per game led all of Division II, and his 3.8 blocks per game were second. He was named the SIAC Newcomer of the Year, Player of the Year, first-team All-Conference and All-Tournament. He was also named to the Daktronics All-South Region second team. Watson said he expects Goode to be an even more dominant player this year. “Marcus is our guy. He’s going to be our go-to guy,” Watson said. “He’s the guy that gives us the best chance of winning when he goes. We’re going to do a lot of things with Marcus Goode. He actually has to step up big-ger and play an even more larger role (in the fall semes-ter).” The Tigers open the season with four games before the exam and holiday break, and expect to be without Collier, who injured a wrist in a preseason exhibition

game. Some other minor nagging injuries could also ham-per the Tigers in the first semester. “Marcus as well as other guys will have to step up and play huge for us,” Watson said. Collier was second on the team in scoring last year, averaging 14.2 points per game, and led the team with 5.6 assists per game, which ranked 17th in the nation. “It was more important to get him back 100 percent healthy for next semester,” said Watson. “I think we have the tools and the talent to continue to win without him dur-ing this time. With him, we’re a great team. Without him, our expectations don’t change, we still expect to go in and compete and win basketball games. When someone goes down, the next person gets an opportunity to step up and show what they can do.” Backing up Collier at point guard are freshman guard Justin Peeples, junior Cassius Bell, who started the first five games last season, and senior Mark Young. “I know it’s asking a lot of a redshirt freshman, but I think he can come in and be solid and get us in our

Marcus Goode


Season Outlookoffense and get the ball to Marcus Goode and Antrjuan Albright and do some good things,” Watson said of Peeples. “Mark Young, he’s a guy who didn’t play much last year, but he’s going to get a good opportunity to play some good minutes this first semester.” At shooting guard, the Tigers have a dangerous weapon in Albright, who led the conference in 3-pointers last season, connecting on 69-of-181 attempts (.381), aver-aging 10.1 points per game. “Antrjuan actually can put up big numbers any given night, but he just accepts being on a winning program and he had to sacrifice some of his offense,” Watson said. “But make no bones about it, Antrjuan Albright is a 20-point scorer on any other team. He takes advantage of his opportu-nities when he gets them, and that’s what makes us pretty good.” At small forward will be junior college transfer Rickie Jackson, who was named team MVP and was one of the nation’s top 3-point shooters at Aiken Technical College. “Rickie is pretty special. He can play multiple positions. He’s going to be solid,” Watson said. “He’ll prob-ably be the newcomer of the year.” At the power forward position, Watson will add another transfer in Lamar Adkins, a 6-8 forward who last played collegiately in 2008 at Norfolk State. Watson is optimistic that the sec-ond semester will see the addition of 6-10 forward/center Trevor Eichel-berger, who averaged 10 points per game for the Tigers two years ago. “That lineup (Collier, Albright, Jackson, Eichelberger and Goode) is a national championship type of lineup,” Watson said. “You’ve got the size, got the speed, got the length, got the shooting ability. Then getting some guys who are going to have

to play extended minutes the first half because of guys being out is going to bode well for us by building our bench.” Some of the key bench players will be Branden Herring, a 6-2 guard who played in 25 games last year; Chance Rucker, a 6-3 freshman; and Lynden Davis, a 6-6 freshman who played on the Bahamas national team. “We have a special young guy in Chance Rucker. He’s going to be re-ally, really special. He’s the most ath-letic guy we have on our team. He’s really talented. He’s going to come in and do good things for us,” Watson said. “Lynden Davis is another redshirt freshman. He’s going to come in and do good things for us.” Also returning for the Tigers is Charles Taylor, who saw action in 23 games last season. Taylor can play multiple positions and is a hard worker. “He’s just a guy who works his butt

off. He’s going to give you every-thing he’s got and he’s going to contribute,” Watson said. The Tigers added Allen Elmore after holding a walk-on tryout. El-more was a highly recruited guard from Augusta before suffering a seri-ous knee injury his senior season. “He’s completely recovered from that injury. He looks really great,” Watson said. “I think he’s going to step in and probably play some good minutes. He’s going to be a solid kid in our program. He was a good blessing in disguise.” Along with Eichelberger, Watson expects to add Tydran Beaty and David Brailsford to the lineup for the second semester. Beaty averaged 9.4 points per game last season and started nine games. “They call him Mr. Excitement,” Watson said of Beaty. “He’s a high-flyer.” Brailsford will “compete for minutes, if not a starting position,” Watson said. With a full, healthy team, Watson is excited about the possibilities for the 2011-12 season. But he knows the Tigers have to produce and live up to that potential. “The number six ranking, we didn’t let that get to their heads. That’s just potential; performance still has to meet that potential. That’s what they say we can become, but we haven’t become that, we haven’t played a single game yet. So our performance has to meet up with our potential, and we probably can achieve those goals. “Coming in, we knew we were going to be pretty good and that number six ranking was without the injuries and without the academic issues. When our team is complete, I am confident that nobody will be able to put the talent that we put on the court in January.”

Benedict College Founded in 1870 by Rhode Island native Mrs. Bathsheba Bene-dict, Benedict College was an 80-acre planta-tion when purchased as the Benedict Insti-tute. The investors’ - Mrs. Benedict and the Baptist Home Mission - long-term goal was to educate emancipated African-Americans and produce citizens “pow-ers for good in society”. Nearly 141 years later, Benedict College has been one of the fastest growing of 39 United Negro College Fund Schools. Of the 20 independent colleges in South Carolina, Benedict has the largest undergraduate student body and is the second largest overall. The College has students enrolled from every county in South Carolina. More than 2,800 students currently study at the school and is distinguished by its continued commitment to facilitate the empowerment, enhancement, and full participation of African Americans in a global society. The school’s growth is more than an expanding student

enrollment. Benedict College is also involved in an ambi-tious building program. The beautiful park-like campus is located on the corners of Harden and Taylor Streets. The campus has undergone substantial renovations to its Antis-del Chapel, the Benjamin E. Mays Human Resource Center, Morgan Hall, Pratt Hall, and all of its dormitories. But the school’s growth is not limited to its historic area. Benedict College is also erecting a multi-million dollar, 60-acre sports complex off of Two Notch Road in Columbia. The new facility will include tennis courts, baseball fields, fitness trails, and running track. The heart of the complex is

the 11,000 seat Charlie W. Johnson football stadium. After a 30-year hiatus, football re-turned to Benedict College in 1995. And with football came its comple-ment, the marching band. While credited by some as a boost to male student enrollment, according to Dr. David H. Swinton, president of Benedict College, the move back to football was a way for students to feel a “community esprit de corps”, and to boost the “spirit and quality of the school”. The spirit and quality have attract-ed their share of additional success. The average SAT scores, Honors College enrollee rate, capital giving dollars and the number of research grants awarded to Benedict College have all increased. Also growing are

the numbers of valedictorians and high achievers choosing the school as their first choice for higher education. Students attending Benedict College have the opportunity to earn four-year, liberal arts degree from 30 different dis-ciplines. These include: accounting, art, biology, business administration, chemistry, child and family development, computer science, computer/information science, criminal justice, early childhood education, economics, elementary education, English, environmental health science, history, mathematics, music education, physics, political science, recreation, religion and philosophy, and social work. Receiving an academic education is only part of the Benedict College experience. Service to the community also defines their students. To encourage their community toward fairness and equality, Benedict College started The Center of Excellence for Community Development in 1997. This center is comprised of four programs: Educational Excellence, Child and Family Program, Business and Eco-nomic Development, the Democracy and Government. Each program is designed to help solve a distinct set of problems afflicting American society and in particular African-Ameri-cans. The goal of the Education Excellence Program is to improve the standardized test scores and performance of African-American students. Innovative test-taking skills will be taught to participating students using a variety of life experiences as teaching and learning aides. Success in searching this goal will assist the program in reaching an-other important goal of reducing the dropout rate of African American students. Solving problems associated with growing up in a disadvantaged home is the mission of the Child and Fam-

ily (Excellence) Program. This part of the Excellence Center develops strategies, tactics, and programs to help African Americans deal with problems related to poverty, drug addiction and child abuse. Encouraging small business ownership, and business improvement, particularly among African-Americans, is the goal of the Business and Eco-nomic Development Program. The Excellence Center focuses on teaching the principles and practices of entreprenuership and equates ownership with em-powerment. Community participation in the governmental process is the overall goal of the Democracy and Government portion of the Benedict College Center of Excellence. Of particular interest are the efforts this program makes to encourage voting. The eventual

goal is to “enable our American democracy to work effective-ly not just for some of its people, but for all of its people”, said Swinton. Benedict College has a long history of producing high achievers. Some notable alumni include: Maj. Gen. Matthew Zimmerman, Dr. LeRoy Walker, and president emeritus of the US Olympic Committee. Other distinguished graduates include: I.S. Leevy Johnson Esq., the first African American President of the SC Bar Association; Modjeska Simkins, of-ten referred as the mother of the South Carolina Civil Rights Movement; and Maria Pyles, 1990 SC Teacher of the Year and the National Teacher of the Year finalist. Benedict College has also hosted many distinguished entertainers and visitors as part of its performing arts and lecture programs. Additionally, Benedict has hosted several political and community leaders such as Michelle Obama; Senator Hillary Clinton; John Edwards, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Congressman James E. Clyburn and Former Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun.

Administration


Dr. David H. Swinton, President Dr. David Holmes Swin-ton is the 13th president of Benedict College in Colum-bia, South Carolina. As pres-ident, Dr. Swinton oversees all areas and departments of the 141-year-old Institution with a record student enroll-ment that exceeds 3,140, the highest enrollment in the College’s history. Benedict College’s enroll-ment has more than dou-bled since the arrival of Dr. Swinton in 1994. The College has experienced a dramatic increase in its male student populations going against the national trend of recruiting African-American male scholars. As a result of this tremendous growth, Benedict has one of the largest undergraduate populations of the 20 private in-stitutions in South Carolina, and has been ranked the fourth largest HBCU in The College Fund/UNCF network. Recently, Benedict College was ranked one of the Top 10 Colleges in the nation to promote social mobility, cutting edge research and community service by Washington Monthly magazine. Born in New Haven, Connecticut, Dr. Swinton moved with his family to Timmonsville, South Carolina at an early age where he attended the Brockington School. He moved to New York City at 12 years of age and graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in Brooklyn. In 1968, he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from New York University; in 1971, he was awarded a Master of Arts degree in Economics from Harvard University; and in 1975 he was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Econom-ics from Harvard University. Dr. Swinton’s professional experience includes seven-year tenure as Dean of the School of Business at Jackson State University. Prior to his appointment at Jackson State, he was Director of the Southern Center of Studies in Public Policy and Professor of Economics at Clark College in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Swinton is renown for his scholarly writings; most notably his analysis of the economic status of African Americans. His economic analysis was published in the National Urban League’s The State of Black America in 1983 and each year from 1989 through 1993. His works have also been published in such professional journals as the American Economics Review, The Review of Black Political Economy, Minority Youth Employment, and Public Admin-

istration Review, Journal of Urban Analysis, and Business and Society.

Willie Washington, AD In 1988, Willie Washington arrived on the campus of Benedict College as the Head Men’s Basketball Coach and Assistant Athletic Director. Washing-ton had spent the previous twelve years as the Head Men’s Basketball Coach and Athletic Director across the street at Allen University. After building a successful basketball program at Allen University it was time to turn his attention to revamping the Benedict College Program. Under his leadership, the Tigers were the scourge of the EIAC, winning six Commissioner’s Cups, the hallmark of excellence for the school with the best athletic programs. Benedict won six out of seven during their stay in the EIAC since the inauguration of the award. Washington was named the 1999 National Associa-tion of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Southeast Region Athletic Director of the Year by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics. During his tenure as bas-ketball coach, the Benedict College team never had a losing season. He reached the 200 win-plateau during the 1997-98 seasons and guided the Tigers to the NAIA national tournament four times during the nineties. He was named the winner of eight EIAC Coach of the Year awards and was inducted into the EIAC Hall of Fame in 1998. In 2004 in the coaching category, Washington was inducted into the Benedict College Hall of Fame. Washington, who performed well in both roles winning nine straight Eastern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Championships (EIAC) and expanding the athletic program from 8 to 14 sports including the return of football, realized that the growth of the athletic department demanded his full attention. After 11 years of wearing two hats, that of Men’s Basketball Coach and Athletic Director, Mr. Wash-ington is entering his 22nd year as Athletic Director. Benedict is currently a member National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) affiliate and a member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC). During

the 2003-2004 year the athletic program had three teams to advance to the NCAA Regional Tournaments during the spring season of competition, more than any other SIAC member institution. Under Willie Washington’s leader-ship, Benedict College served as the host institution for the 2003-2004 SIAC Spring Sports Championships, the first in the college history. In 2010 the Athletic Department won the NCAA Division II National Community Engagement Award of Excellence. Washington is a graduate of Tougaloo College in Touga-loo, Mississippi. He holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance and received a Masters Degree from Jackson State. In college, Wash-ington was co-captain of the basketball team during his junior and senior years, another testimony to his leadership abilities. After college he played in the European Profes-sional Basketball League with the Carlos Basketball Club in Brussels, Belgium. He is married to the former Genoise Gaylor and they are the parents of four children, Willie, a 2002 Benedict Alumni and Jurist Doc graduate from Michi-gan State, Gerard, a 2006 Benedict graduate and Defensive Back Coach for the Tigers, Chad also a Benedict graduate who played football and track and field. He is completed graduate school at Grambling University in the area of sports administration. Kimberly, the youngest, will become a member of the Benedict College family in the future. Currently, Washington serves as Chairman of the Palmetto Capital City Classic Committee and serves on a number of athletic committees, boards and foundations. Washington is a four year member on the NCAA Division II Management Council, Chairman of the SIAC Athletic Director Committee, the NCAA Honors Committee, and the NCAA Diversity and Inclusion Committee.


The SIAC The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) was founded in 1913 and today, 97 years later, the confer-ence still flies high as one of the nation’s most viable forces in intercollegiate athletics.

The representatives formed a permanent organization (The Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Con-ference) which has had a continuous history to the present. In 1929, they changed the name of this organization to The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Two institutions have held continuous membership in the conference: Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University) and Tuskegee University.

At the Outdoor Track & Field Championships, Alabama A&M’s men finished 10th and the women claimed their second consecutive national title. The SIAC is also home to both the longest running rivalry and the winningest team in black college football. More-house and Tuskegee have been doing battle since 1902 and will hit the field for the 99th time in the 2008 season. Tuske-gee will be celebrating its 115th season this fall and they have amassed over 600 victories – first among Historically Black Colleges and Universities. All SIAC member institutions have a rich athletic his-tory. They rely heavily on past leadership to help them face today’s challenges as they continue their quest to excel in collegiate athletics.
