Rick Christophel begins his third season as Austin Peay’s head coach with the intent of building the Gover-nors into an Ohio Valley Conference championship contender. In 2007, Christophel became the first APSU head coach since his mentor, Watson Brown (1979), to win as many as seven games in his initial season. Only James “Boots” Donnelly, who won eight games in 1977, won more contests in his initial season. The 7-4 season was the most wins by a Governors scholarship

program since the 1984 team went 7-4. The Governors’ 5-3 Ohio Valley Conference record was APSU’s most league victories since the 1980 team won five. With quarterback-injury problems plus losing defensive coordinator Granville Eastman to immigration issues early in the season, Chris-tophel’s second season took a turn in 2008. Despite the adversity, the Governors ended the season playing their season’s best football. The former Austin Peay quarter-

back became APSU’s 17th head coach in Spring 2007, replacing Car-roll McCray, who resigned in February. Christophel, who had more than 25 years of Division I coaching experi-ence, returned to his alma mater after spending the previous 11 years at the University of Alabama-Birmingham, where he served as the Blazers defensive coordinator in 2006 after serving as the pro-gram’s defensive line coach in 2005 while also serving as assistant head coach. From 2002-2003, he served as assistant athletics director at UAB. He previously served as UAB’s defensive coordi-nator during the 2001 season and the results were impressive. The 2001 UAB defense led the country in

rushing yards allowed at 57.3 per game, ranked No. 5 nationally in to-tal defense (265.9) and was 16th in scoring defense at 18.7 points given up per contest. Christophel long was one of the Blazer staff’s most versatile coaches. He came to UAB with head coach Watson Brown, now at Tennessee Tech, in January 1995, from Missis-sippi State, where he was the wide receivers coach for four seasons (1991-94). From 1996-98, Christophel coached the UAB wide receivers. During that time, he coached junior receiver Darrius Malone, who set the single-season record with an average of 22.1 yards per catch. In 1997, he coached fifth-year senior and former quarterback Kevin Drake, who became the first offensive player in UAB history to go to the National Football League when he signed a free-agent contract with the Arizona Cardinals (Drake later played on the NFL Europe champion Rhein Fire and was signed by the Buffalo Bills). In 1999, Christophel worked with the Blazer offensive tackles and tight ends. He also coached running backs

during his time at UAB. He served as director of football operations in 2000 while also coaching the receivers. Christophel spent a majority of his years in the coaching profession alongside Brown. The two were to-gether for two seasons as assistants at Mississippi State (1991-92); Chris-tophel was an assistant to Brown at Vanderbilt (1986-90), as well as Austin Peay (1979-80), Cincinnati (1983) and Rice (1984-85). During Christophel’s tenure at Mis-sissippi State under Jackie Sherrill, he coached three future NFL receivers –Olanda Truitt, Willie Harris and Eric Moulds. The Bulldogs participated in three bowl games during that span as well (Liberty Bowl in 1991 and Peach Bowl in 1993 and 1995). At Vanderbilt, Christophel coached the offensive backs for three years (1986-88). In 1989, he was the de-fensive coordinator and coached the middle linebackers; a year later, he was the assistant head coach and again worked with the offensive backs.

Christophel served as a graduate assistant at Austin Peay (1975) and

coached three years at Highlands High School in Fort Thomas, Ky., before returning to APSU to begin his college coaching career. A 1975 graduate of Austin Peay, Christophel was a four-year starter on the Governors football team; he played safety in his first season and quarterback during his final three years. He played for Jack Bushof-sky and twice was selected captain. He was one of three Christophel brothers to play quarterback for the Govs, joining Rob and Randy. His name still is la\isted on several of the program’s top 10 single-sea-son career passing lists. A native of Reading, Ohio, Chris-tophel and his wife, Connie, have three daughters, Chrissy, Carrie and Sara. Carrie, in fact, is married to for-mer APSU quarterback Matt Schmitz, who serves as running backs coach at Tennessee Tech.

DAINON SIDNEY — DefensiveBacks

Granville Eastman is in his seventh-season as an Austin Peay assistant, his fifth as defensive coordinator. How-ever, it will be his first season working as the team’s linebackers coach. When Steve Haywood elected to return to the offensive side of the foot-ball after the 2004 season, it was only natural that Eastman was elevated. He previously had served as the right hand to Haywood on the defense. Eastman was instrumental in help-ing a young defense mature in 2006 and elevate its performance to an even higher level in 2007–a sophomore domi-nated group–as APSU finished eighth in FCS for turnovers gained (31). In addition, Eastman again will work with the Govs special teams, an area that has displayed marked improvement in recent seasons. The energetic assistant came to APSU in Spring 2003 from Tiffin (Ohio) University, where he served as a de-fensive assistant for four seasons. Eastman was so impressive in the

interview process, the Govs delayed spring practice so proper paperwork could be finalized in the hiring process for the Toronto, Canada native. Eastman was afforded increased responsibility in each of his four years at Tiffin. In 1999, he was hired as sec-ondary coach while also serving as the program’s academic advisor and recruiting coordinator. A year later, he was elevated to defensive coordinator in charge of the defensive line while continuing to serve as recruiting coor-dinator. In 2001, again he served as defensive coordinator while working with the secondary During Summer 2002, he served an intership with the NFL’s Detroit Lions and he did the same in Summer 2004 with the Arizona Cardinals, learning more about special teams play. With APSU hosting the Tennes-see Titans training camp on campus, Summer 2006, Eastman arranged a third NFL internship with the Nashville-based club, working with former Govs

assistant Ever-ett Withers with the secondary. E a s t m a n was a two-time all-city defen-sive back at Leaock High School in To-ronto before attending Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Canada. There, he was a three-year letter-man as a defensive back. Twice Saint Mary’s played in national title games while he was there. Eastman served one year as a volunteer coach at York University in Toronto before deciding to pursue a coaching career. From 1996-98, he served as graduate assistant at Ar-kansas State (1995-98) before going to working at Tiffin in 1999. He is married to the former Lyn-nette Armstrong. They are the proud parents of sons J.R. and Brandon.

GRANVILLE EASTMAN — DefensiveCoordinator/Linebackers

When Granville Eastman’s immi-gration status changed last fall, leaving APSU without a valuable staff member, head coach Rick Christophel painstak-ingly searched for a person he could trust to help with the Govs defense. He turned to someone whom he formerly coached at UAB, Dainon Sidney. It was a perfect fit for Sidney and Austin Peay. When the former Tennes-see Titans cornerback started working with APSU’s secondary, he realized he found his niche–to be a college football coach. When Eastman’s immigration status was resolved, Christophel knew he also wanted to keep Sidney. When a position opened up after the 2008 season, Christophel hired Sidney as a full-time coach. He will continue to coach the secondary as Eastman moves to linebacker coach.

Sidney’s move into coaching came after he had worked most recently in a private construction business in Nash-ville, where he chose to reside after retiring from professional football. Christophel became familiar with the former NFL player when both were in Birmingham. Sidney played at UAB in 1996-97 while Christophel was serv-ing as an assistant. The Atlanta native originally signed to play football and run track at East Tennessee before transferring to UAB. He left UAB third on the Blazers’ all-time interception list (nine) and was a four-time All-Confer-ence USA track performer. Sidney was drafted in the fourth round of the 1998 draft by the Oil-ers/Titans and played with them from 1998-2002. He played in four playoff games, including Super Bowl XXXIII for the Titans.

He was a member of the Buffalo Bills in 2003 before fin-ishing his ca-reer in Detroit in 2004. He made six career starts and had six in-terceptions, all with the Titans. While with the Titans, he es-tablished Dainon Sidney Children’s Foundation in 2000 which worked in conjunction with YMCA to promote literacy to inner-city children. Sidney, an Atlanta native (River-dale HS) was a former Metro Track-Man of the Year. In addtion to being a football star at UAB (nine career interceptions in three seasons), he also was a decorated track athlete. He has a son, Myles, age 3.

Steve Haywood, the program’s assistant head coach, begins his ninth season in his second tenure as an APSU assistant. Haywood, a former outstanding APSU offensive lineman, has gained a reputation developing standout offen-sive lines through chemistry. In 2006, APSU’s last season as mostly a non-scholarship program, he developed a line that produced for the first time a 1,000-yard rusher and 1,000 passer in the same season–and nearly 4,000 yard in total offense. Using basically the same line that was recruited as non-scholarship players, Austin Peay produced a rusher (Chris Fletcher) who gained nearly 2,000 yards in APSU’s first season back in the Ohio Valley Conference as a scholarship program. In 2008, after the Govs endured a plethora of injuries to skill person-nel, the rebuilt offensive line helped produced an average of 26.4 points per game and a average of 357 yards total over the final five contests. Haywood returned to his alma

mater in 2000 as offensive line coach after serving one season as offensive line coach at the University of the Cumberlands (Ky.). In 2001, his career took a dramatic turn when he accepted the challenge as the Govs defensive coordinator. In a short period of time, he helped develop the defense into APSU’s strength. He also assumed many other duties in his full-time coaching tenure and was named assistant head coach in Summer 2002. He served as director of football operations prior to McCray’s hiring. When Carroll McCray was hired in Winter 2003, he saw Haywood’s indis-pensable attributes and retained him as the program’s defensive coordinator.After serving four seasons as APSU’s defensive coordinator, he initiated the move back to offensive line in 2005. The Huntingdon, Tenn., native has spent a lot of time in Clarksville. He first came to APSU in 1993 starting at tackle as a freshman. A year later he was shifted to his more natural guard position, where he for the next three

(1994-96) years. He earned sec-ond-team All-OVC honors as sophomore and honorable men-tion his senior season. He also was voted team captain as a senior. After completing his eligibility in 1996, he remained at APSU as a student assistant offensive line coach in 1997 and then became graduate assistant a year later, working with the defensive line, giving him a different perspective on line play. Haywood received his bachelor’s degree in health and human perfor-mance in 1997 and his master’s the following spring. A two-way lineman at Huntingdon High School, he was a two-time all-dis-trict and all-West Tennessee offensive line selection. He is married to the former Kim Laub, a former Lady Govs tennis player. They are the parents of Lucy Ellen, age 2.

STEVE HAYWOOD —OffensiveLine/AssistantHeadCoach

MARCUS GILDERSLEEVE —Receivers/RecruitingCoordinator One of the finest Clarksville-area

football players in the last 15 years is in his hometown, serving as an assistant football coach.

Marcus Gildersleeve, who starred at Northeast High School before playing his college football at Virginia Tech (1996-98), came to APSU in 2005 as corner-backs coach after serving two seasons as wide receivers coach at Nebraska-Omaha. He returned to the offense in 2006, coaching APSU’s receivers. His impact was evident as he helped develop a young receiving corps, including Lanis Frederick, who set APSU records for receptions and receiving yards.

He also has proven to be an important factor working with APSU special teams, in particular the kicking block aspect.

In addition, he also serves as the

program’s recruiting coordinator. After receiving his bachelor’s in

Family Child Development (2000), he began his coaching career as the wide receivers and specials teams coach at the University of the South, working with his former prep coach, Rick Butler. In fact, while at Sewanee in 2001 and 2002, his special teams set an NCAA Division III single-game record by returning three blocked punts for touchdowns.

Gildersleeve entered coaching after a solid career at Virginia Tech, mostly as a wide receiver. The Hokies played in five bowl games while he was there, including 2000 AllState Sugar Bowl, that season’s BCS Championship game..

His best season came in 1997 when he caught 17 passes for 286 yards (16.8 ypc) and three TDs. As a junior, he was

involved in two of Tech’s three spe-cial teams TDs, recovering one blocked punt for a TD and block-ing another for a score.

Gildersleeve earned his way to Virginia Tech after a ter-rific prep career. As a senior at Northeast, he rushed for 1063 yards and 21 TDs, including one game where he rushed seven times for 256 yards and five TDs.

He is married to the former Letisha Turner. They have four children, two daughters, Myla, age 7, and Jalea, age 3, and two sons, Jaylin, 8, and Marcus Jr., 5.

JOSH ROBERTS — RunningBacksJosh Roberts is in his fourth season

with the Governors football program. He returned to his hometown in

2006 to serve as a graduate assistant, coaching the running backs. He since has been elevated into fulltime coaching status working with the running backs. He also helps organizing team travel.

Roberts came to APSU after a strong football career at Lambuth where he played three offensive positions–full-back, tight end and H-back, lettering all

four seasons. Known as an outstanding blocking back, his best two seasons came in 2003, when he caught 10 passes for 148 yards, and in 2004, when he hauled in 11 passes for 88 yards.

At Lambuth, Roberts was honored with the Athletic Committee Sportsman-ship Award. He also served as a male student athlete representative to Lam-buth’s athletic committee. Roberts was named to Who’s Who Among American Colleges and Universities.

In addition, he served as a Fel lowship of Christian Ath-le tes Hudd le Leader.

The North-east High School graduate played linebacker and tight end for the Eagles, earning all-area, all-region and all-state honors as a senior.

Ryan Taylor, a former football star during the Governors non-scholarship era, returned to his alma mater a year ago as linebacker coach. He has shfit-ed to defensive line in his second full-time season. Taylor comes back to Clarksville a year ago after serving two seasons as an assistant coach at North Greenville University, Tigerville, S.C. Taylor began his coaching career in 2005 as an APSU graduate assistant, coaching linebackers. That was after an outstanding career at APSU. As a Governor, Taylor was one of APSU’s leading tacklers his last three seasons as a rover/outside linebacker. Despite his 5-9, 185-pound size, Taylor earned a hard-nosed reputation

that resulted in him finishing no worse than sixth in team tackles in each of his final three seasons. His 75 stops as a sophomore ranked second on the team and he was sixth as a senior, despite missing two complete games following emergency surgery to repair a broken blood vessel. During his career, Taylor had a total of 21 tackles for loss, seven intercep-tions–two returned for touchdowns–four fumble recoveries and seven forced fumbles. He also blocked a kick. But Taylor also accomplished much off the field. The mathematics major was an eight-time member of of the Athletics Director’s Honor Roll (3.0 GPA) and two-time first-team member of the Pioneer Football League All-

Academic team. Three times he was nominated for Academic All-America As a result of his outstand-ing career both on and off the field, Taylor was named the 2005 AP-SU’s Male Joy Award recipient as the most valuable senior athlete. The OImstead, Ky., native played linebacker and running back for Gw-ynne Gaddie at Logan County High School. He earned third-team all-state as a senior.

CRAIG CANDETO — QuarterbacksCraig Candeto’s sojourn into col-

lege football coaching is different than most.

Austin Peay’s new offensive gradu-ate assistant coach has spent the last six years in the Navy as a fighter pilot, a member of Strike Fighter Squadron 106 “Gladiators” stationed in Virginia Beach, Va., who flew T-34, T-45 and F/A-18 jets. The former lieutenant retired from the Navy earlier this year and now is going from piloting a $57 million Super Hornet aircraft to taking flight as the Governors quarterbacks coach.

But before his military career, Can-deto was a sports star in his own right who shares an NCAA record. The De-land, Fla., native was a two-sport prep star, earning the 1999 6A Florida State High School Player of the Year award. He also earned first-team all-state in football and baseball.

He earned an appointment to the Naval Academy, where he enjoyed a storied athletic career. In baseball he

was a first-team All-Patriot League out-fielder in 2003 along with being named Thompson Trophy Cup recipient, for the Midshipman who has done the most during the year to promote athletics at the Naval Academy.

However, it was at quarterback where Candeto achieved his greatest stardom. In 2002, he rushed for six touchdowns in Navy’s 58-12 win against Army—those six rushing TDs matched the NCAA re-cord for rushing TDs by a quarterback. In total, he accounted for seven TDs in the game.

Candeto is one of just 26 FBS quarter-back to have rushed and pass for 1,000 or more yards, respectively.

He earned the 2002 and 2003 Rubino Memorial Silver Helmet award as the Outstanding Football Player at the Naval Academy. As co-captain in 2003, he quar-terbacked a Navy football team that won three games in the previous three sea-sons and guided it to an 8-5 record and its first bowl appearance in seven years.

CHAD CREAMER — DefensiveBacksChad Creamer came to Austin Peay

as a graduate assistant last spring after spending three years at Ohio State as a student assistant. Creamer is assisting Dainon Sidney with the Governors’ sec-ondary. He also will assist in post-game video breakdown.

In a sense, Creamer’s calling as a coach came early. After playing four seasons as a safety at Greenview High School in Jamestown, Ohio, he bypassed a chance to play college football to become involved in the Ohio State program.

Creamer started in the weight room,

moved to working with the defensive backs and spent his final year help-ing one of the nation’s most respected defensive coordinators, Jim Heacock. His assignment included working with the defensive line during that two-year timeframe.

Creamer got a keen insight into one of the nation’s top football programs and brings that knowledge and experience to Austin Peay.

Many people see the end result of all the work procured during the week of practices and meetings once the team hits the field on game day.

But Cream-er ’s work al-lowed him to be an insider and gave him an up-close look at how Ohio State pre-pares for games week to week. Game day saw him working both from the field in 2007 and then the coaches box in 2008.

That same Navy team led the na-tion in rushing.

H e w a s 2004 recipient of the Joe Bellino Award present-ed to the team’s top rusher as well as the 2004 Military Quarterback of the Year. Candeto also is a member of the Navy Athletic Hall of Fame.

Candeto gained experience coach-ing while in the Navy. In 2004-05 he was an assistant baseball coach at Navy and in late Summer 2007, he served as volunteer assistant football coach at Northeast Lauderdale High School in Meridian, Miss.

Candeto is married to the former Maribeth Robinson.

Entering its 62nd year, the Ohio Val-ley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I confer-ence. For only the second time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois University Ed-wardsville as the league’s 11th member in 2008. The move expanded the OVC’s geographical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the first change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Sam-ford) in 2003. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences. The OVC’s proud past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athlet-ics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but re-emerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original in-stitutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pio-neer on a much more significant scale so-cially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958, Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Mur-phy, a year later. In 1961, Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportuni-ties to African-Americans. Through the past 61 years, 14 teams have won or shared the league’s football ti-tle. The list is led by Eastern Kentucky, win-ner of 20 outright or shared football crowns, including both the 2007 and 2008 champi-onships, as they compiled a 15-1 league record over that time period. Only one other Football Championship Subdivision school (UMass) has won more Conference titles

than the Colonels. Among OVC teams, for-mer member Middle Tennessee is next with 11 titles, followed by Tennessee Tech with nine, and Murray State and former member Western Kentucky with eight apiece. East-ern Illinois has claimed four football crowns (including winning the title outright in 2005 and sharing the crown with UT Martin in 2006) while Jacksonville State, Morehead State, Tennessee State and former mem-bers Evansville and East Tennessee State have captured two apiece. Austin Peay, UT Martin (which captured its first crown in 2006) and former member Youngstown State have one title apiece. Murray State and Evansville tied for the initial football championship, and the Rac-ers participated in the first-ever bowl game by an OVC team, tying Sul Ross State 21-21 in the 1948 Tangerine Bowl. From 1948 to 1975, OVC teams played in 15 bowl games, winning eight of them. Eastern Ken-tucky and Western Kentucky were also par-ticipants in the NCAA Division II playoffs in the early and mid-1970s prior to the NCAA’s reclassification of football programs into Division I-AA. The term “I-AA” lasted until the end of the 2006 season when it was changed to Division I Football Champion-ship Subdivision (FCS). The first Division I-AA/FCS football playoff was held in 1978 with only four teams, which is the only year through pres-ent day that the OVC did not field a playoff representative. In 1979, four of the nation’s top teams were invited to the playoffs, and two of them - Eastern Kentucky and Murray State - were from the OVC. Murray dropped its semifinal game to Lehigh, but the Colo-nels nipped Nevada-Reno in double over-time and claimed the national championship a week later with a 30-7 victory over Lehigh. EKU was coached by former all-America quarterback Roy Kidd, who was in his 16th year at the helm of his alma mater and who skippered the Colonels to a second national title three years later. Following the 2002 season, Kidd retired after 39 years at EKU, a one-school tenure unmatched in all of Di-vision I. Upon retirement, he ranked sixth

all-time among Division I coaches with 315 victories, earning him a spot in the College Football Hall of Fame. EKU’s 19 FCS playoff appearances are tied for the most all-time. In addition to Kidd, other coaching legends in the OVC include Charles (Bubber) Murphy, who coached at Mid-dle Tennessee from 1947-1968, West-ern Kentucky’s Jimmy Feix (1968-83), Wilburn Tucker (1954-67) and Don Wade (1968-82) of Tennessee Tech, Bill Ferguson (1967-77) of Murray State, Guy Penny (1959-67) of More-

head State and Boots Donnelly (1977-78 at Austin Peay; 1979-1998 at Middle Tennes-see). Current Eastern Illinois head coach Bob Spoo has compiled 78 wins while his program has been a member of the OVC; that currently ranks sixth all-time in league history. A sampling of former OVC football stars, some of whom were All-Ameri-cans during their collegiate careers be-fore achieving stardom at the professional ranks, include Jim Youngblood and Larry Schreiber (Tennessee Tech), Phil Simms (Morehead State), Virgil Livers and Dale Lindsey (Western Kentucky), Myron Guy-ton and Chad Bratzke (Eastern Kentucky), Cortland Finnegan (Samford) and Tony Romo (Eastern Illinois). In 2008, former Tennessee State standout Dominique Rod-gers-Cromartie became just the fourth NFL First Round draft pick in OVC history when he was selected 16th overall by the Arizona Cardinals. He would break into the starting lineup halfway through his rookie season and started at cornerback for the Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII. The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female ath-letes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Com-missioner’s Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Directors of American (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 179 stu-dent-athletes honored with the award, in-cluding 25 over the last three years (2006-07 to the present). Through the early years of the league, administrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which

developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsman-ship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation, and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commis-sion to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics. Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State stu-dent-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior student-athlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the characteristics of sports-manship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team Sportsmanship

Awards, which are presented to one institu-tion and 18 sport-specific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the stan-dards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. The vision of leadership demonstrated by the Founding Fathers in 1948 remains alive today as the Ohio Valley Conference prepares for the future. One example is in regard to the current trend in collegiate ath-letics administration for increased involve-ment of university presidents in setting policies and making rules. The presidents of OVC institutions, however, have always governed the Conference, long before presidential governance became a national theme. The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball

for women. In addition, the OVC also spon-sors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle. Now in its seventh decade of competi-tion, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Cur-rent league representatives include char-ter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological Uni-versity and the University of Tennessee at Martin.
