MEAC Moves South: The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference has announced that the men’s and women’s championship tournaments will have a new home starting this season, as the conference will move the tournament to Raleigh, North Carolina. As part of a three-year deal, the MEAC could earn up to $700,000 per year in pledges from the City of Raleigh, Wake County, and the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau, as well as offering the RBC Center for the event itself. The tournament, scheduled for March 6-11 this season, previously was in Richmond, but had to use two different venues due to conflicts with the Colonial Association’s tournament. [9/15/05]

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
