For more than 20 years, the Big South Conference has been a progressive, NCAA Division I athletic conference reflecting the energy and growth of the Southeastern United States. Founded in 1983, the Big South has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence both on the field of play and in the classroom. Based in Charlotte, N.C., the Big South Conference s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic league is evident by competitive success on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, the enhancement of the quality of the student-athlete experience and strategic planning that has carried the Big South through the first decade of the 21st century. Entering its 24th year of existence in 2007-08, the Big South Conference continues to emerge by providing quality athletic competition, and intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. The league consists of eight member institutions: Charleston Southern,, High Point, Liberty, UNC Asheville, Radford, Virginia Military Institute and Winthrop. Two new members will join the Big South footprint in 2008-09 with the addition of Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, which began its transition to Division I athletics in 2006.

The Big South also had its first-ever women s cross country All-American in 2006-07, as well as its first women s golf All-American in 10 years. Additionally, Radford tennis player Martin Sayer was selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship for the second-straight year.

In addition, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes achieve at least a 3.0 grad point average each year. The Big South Conference was formed on Aug. 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry initially began recruiting members into the Big South. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the league's first commissioner and continued to solicit new members. The league's seven charter members were Armstrong State, Augusta, Campbell, Charleston Southern,, Radford and Winthrop. In 1989, George F. "Buddy" Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as commissioner. Under Sasser s leadership, the conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men's basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. Sasser was so integral to the growth and foundation of the league that in 2000, the Commissioner's Cup -- the annual award given to the institution with the most successful athletic year -- was renamed the George F. Sasser Cup. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the league s third commissioner, and in his 11 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the conference to new levels. He developed the Big South Marketing Group, which has resulted in increased revenues and exposure for the conference and its members. He also brought television coverage to Big South women's basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in conference history and created the Big South Television Network in 2001 as a television syndicate for the league. Under Kallander's leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the league's vision as a distinctive athletic conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. In addition, Kallander has solidified membership with the addition of High Point in 1999, Virginia Military Institute in 2003 and future members Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian in 2008. Kallander s long range vision has also included technological advancements, as the conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to most sports. Kallander has also successfully integrated the conference s profile with the member institutions general student body, notably through the development of the Big South Academic Consortium, which sponsors the annual Academic College Bowl among league members and the Big South Undergraduate Research Symposium. 90 2007-08 Liberty Flames Basketball

Big South Championship After a successful trial season of home sites for all quarterfinal match-ups during the 2003 Big South Men s and Women s Basketball Championships, the Big South Conference expanded the home court advantage throughout the entire three-game tournament as each game of the 2004 Advance Auto Parts Big South Men s and Women s Basketball Championships was hosted on the higher seed s home court. The Big South Conference saw some of its greatest attendance totals in the history of the tournament under the continually-evolving format, including a 51.1 percent growth rate in total attendance on the men s side of the tournament and a near sell-out crowd for the 2004 championship game. A total of 8,515 fans packed the Vines Center on March 6, 2004, watching the Flames claimed their second-ever title with a dominating victory over second-seeded High Point on ESPN2 s national television coverage. With the outstanding success of the 2004 Big South Men s and Women s Basketball Championships, the Big South Conference extended the trial period for another year under the home site format. That made the 2004-05 Big South Conference regular-season race more important than ever as each team had the opportunity to host the entire tournament on its home court, including a championship game in front of its hometown supporters. Over 20,000 fans attended games during the 2006 Big South Basketball Championships, including 6,250 in attendance at the Winthrop Coliseum as the Winthrop Eagles picked up their seventh title in the last nine years in front of their hometown enthusiasts. The 2008 Advance Auto Parts Big South Men s Basketball Championship will begin on March 4 with quarterfinal match-ups at the four higher-seeded teams arenas with games scheduled for four simultaneous tip-offs at 7 p.m. Winners will advance to one of two semifinals on March 6, which will be broadcast on the ESPNU at 6 and 8 p.m. at the site of the regular-season champion. The championship game will be played at 2 p.m. on March 8 and will be broadcast LIVE on ESPN as part of Championship Week with the winner being crowned Champion of the 2008 Big South Men s Basketball Championship and earning the coveted automatic bid to the 2008 NCAA Tournament. The 2008 Advance Auto Parts Big South Women s Basketball Championship, for the secondstraight year will follow a one-site format for the entire tournament. UNC Asheville won the right to host the 2007 and 2008 Advance Auto Parts Big South Women s Basketball Championships. The 2008 Advance Auto Parts Big South Women s Basketball Championship will start up six days following the crowning of the men s champion as the women s tournament will kick off action with four quarterfinal games on Friday, March 14. The four winners will advance to square off in two semifinal games on Saturday, March 15, for a pair of contests at 6 and 8:30 p.m. Both semifinal contests will be broadcast LIVE on the SportSouth Television Network. The championship game will be played on Sunday, March 16, with a 2 p.m. tip-off at the Justice Center on the campus of UNC Asheville. The game, being broadcast LIVE on SportSouth, will see the victor climbing up the ladder to cut down the championship net at the conclusion and laying claim to the highly sought-after automatic bid to the 2008 NCAA Tournament. With home court advantage on the line throughout the entire Big South Basketball Championship, the level of excitement surrounding each Big South regular-season game should be at an all-time high during the 2007-08 season as EVERY GAME COUNTS!!!! 2007 Big South Men s Basketball Championship Home Sites March 1-5, 2004 Quarterfinals February 27 (Games played at the home of the higher seed) Game 1: #1 Winthrop 72, #8 Charleston Southern 42 Game 2: #5 UNC Asheville 77, #4 64 Game 3: #2 High Point 90, #7 Radford 73 Game 4: #6 VMI 78, #3 Liberty 78 Semifinals - March 1 (Games played at the home of the regular-season champion) Game 5: #6 VMI 91, #2 High Point 81 Game 6: #1 Winthrop 79, #5 UNC Asheville 60 Championship -- March 3 (Game played at the home of the higher seed) Game 7: #1 Winthrop 84, #6 VMI 81 All Tournament Team Michael Jenkins, Winthrop Reggie Williams, VMI Travis Holmes, VMI K.J.
