Big South Conference Tournament Championship: No. 2 Winthrop continued its mastery of the Big South with a 66-48 win at UNC-Asheville, delivering the Eagles their eighth conference championship and NCAA Tournament bid in 10 years. In the first season after coach Gregg Marshall left the school for Wichita State, new coach Randy Peele continued the winning tradition in Rock Hill. The Eagles held the Bulldogs to 18 points first-half points but only led by four at the half. They extended the lead in the second half, fueled by senior guard Michael Jenkins’ 33 points. He hit six three-pointers, finishing 11-of-19 from the field. [3/08/08]

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.”
