Braves Legend Monroe Passes: Alcorn State legend Alfredo Monroe passed away following a long battle with cancer. He was 48. Monroe lettered for the Braves from 1975-79, leading the squad to a 96-20 record over that span, including Alcorn State’s lone undefeated regular season in 1978-79, eventually losing to Indiana in the second round of the NIT. Monroe’s teams claimed two Southwestern Athletic Conference Championships, two NAIA playoff berths and the program’s first NIT berth in history. The program moved to D-I in 1977. [9/2/05]

The Seven C’s of Leadership
Former college basketball coach Mike Jarvis is back with a new book, The Seven C's of Leadership.
"Every one of us has leadership within us and this book offers fascinating principals that work in any setting—from the locker room to the executive board room. In The Seven C's of Leadership, Coach Jarvis lays out the essential ingredients of leadership."
-Jay Wright, NCAA Championship Men’s Basketball Coach, Villanova University
"At a time in America when we are witnessing an epidemic of opioid addictions and deaths, along with suicides, we need Coach Jarvis' Seven C's of Leadership – grounded in the power of Christ alone where we should all make our stand.”
-Lietenant Colonel Allen B. West (U.S. Army, Retired), Bronze Star recipient, and Member 112th U.S. Congress
"The Seven C's of Leadership is a slam dunk! Coach Jarvis has always been an outstanding leader because he has the ability to decipher what true leadership really means.”
-Dale Brown, Head Men’s Basketball Coach, LSU, 1972-1997, Member of the College Basketball Hall of Fame, and Shaquille O’Neal’s college coach
