7 2008-09 Chattanooga Basketball NCAA West Regional • March 19-21, 2009 • Philadelphia, Pa. SCRAPPY Named after legendary football coach A.C. “Scrappy” Moore, Scrappy, the Chattanooga mascot, is a fi xture for the Mocs. A re-design in 2008 puts Scrappy in the image of the State Bird of Tennessee, a Mock- ingbird. The mockingbird is known as a fi erce protector of its nest and environment. It is sometimes seen swooping down on a dog, cat or predator that may be venturing too close to the bird’s protected territory. Scrappy symbolizes that competitive passion. WHY MOCS? Faced with politically sensitive issues and in need of a stronger core identity to help establish a strong brand as Chattanooga’s Team, the athletics depart- ment embarked on a comprehensive identity program in 1996. A new direction for the athletics identity was determined, moving away from the politically incorrect Native American Indian imagery. Several identities have been used in the past. With the old nickname “Moc- casins,” a snake was used in the 1920s and an Indian was used until the year of major change in 1996. A moccasin shoe was even used in the 1980s. In 1996, it was decided to adopt the State Bird of Tennessee, the Mocking- bird, as the core of the new identity, while incorporating the strong regional imagery of Chattanooga’s vast railroad history. The mascot “Scrappy” was born and a new emphasis was placed on the athletics department’s role in the region. The committee also recognized the need for the word “Chattanooga” to have a great emphasis in the logo. The nickname “Moccasins” was shortened to simply “Mocs.” Thus established, Chattanooga could rebuild its athletics pro- WHAT IS A MOC? grams and initiatives around this new identity.

A highlight night

Doaks, Goffney bookend big Chattanooga Mocs plays Wednesday, March 11, 2009

By: David Uchiyama (Contact) The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga won the opening tip and called a play designed for Kevin Goffney.

He drove to the rim, but a College of Charleston player stepped in his way, leaving Nicchaeus Doaks open.

Goffney passed it, Doaks dunked it with two hands and the pro-Moc crowd roared its approval as the Southern Conference championship game began Monday night in McKenzie Arena.

Goffney got an impressive dunk near the end as UTC won 80-69.

“We got that ball to Goffney, and I’ve got a separate column for Goffney plays,” coach John Shulman said about the beginning. “We isolated him, they helped and we scored two the easy way with Doaks. And we got off Staff Photo by Dan Henry Chattanooga fans to a great start.” celebrate after their 80-69 win over Charleston during the Southern Convference Championship game between the Mocs and the Cougars. The Chattanooga Mocs won over the College of Charleston's Cougars 80-69 during the SOCON Champoionship Game held at the McKenzie arena in Chattanooga, Tenn., Tuesday, March 10, 2009.

SoCon all-tournament teams The Mocs earned an automatic trip to the NCAA tournament by finishing a few more plays than the Cougars did. Many First Team were as fundamental as a box-out. Some were as detailed as defensive pressure toward the sideline, and a few should be placed in a time capsule for future generations to enjoy. Stephen McDowell, UTC (MVP)

One even made the ESPN’s “SportsCenter” top 10 plays of Tony White Jr., College of Charleston the day — a prayer shot by Ty Patterson. Stephen Curry, Davidson The junior-college transfer from Dodge City (Kan.) Community College flipped up a 40-footer from the left side Kevin Goffney, UTC with a dainty leg-kick with one second to go on the shot clock, giving UTC a 50-34 lead with a little more than 14 Bryan Friday, Samford minutes to play. Second Team The Mocs’ highlight reel from the championship game started in the first minute with Doaks and continued through Nicchaeus Doaks, UTC the first half with freshman Dante Harvey impersonating Doaks by scoring on a difficult layup, a dunk and another Dustin Scott, College of Charleston

tough shot while his mentor sat on the bench in foul trouble. Jeremy Simmons, College of Charleston

“Coach told me before the game to get ready, so I said, ‘I Download a copy of the March 06, 2005 got you, Coach,’” said Harvey, who felt no pain from a Sports front page midseason injury to his right foot. “I was determined to come in and play big.”

Freshman Chris Early also played at the power forward spot in place of Doaks and grabbed five rebounds in four minutes. The 6-foot-7 transfer from Oklahoma used his muscle to rip away rebounds from the Cougars and scored on a putback of a missed free throw.

The points helped UTC, but the Mocs were tied with Charleston at halftime because a Patterson follow dunk at the buzzer slammed through the rim a fraction of a second after the backboard blared red lights. Had it counted, he may have had two spots on “SportsCenter.”

The Mocs (18-16) opened the second half with a 20-0 run that included Patterson’s prayer and three 3s by the Anderson, S.C., resident. The Mocs held a 20-point lead. But they’d blown an 18-point lead on the road earlier this season. So anything was possible.

Charleston mounted a comeback. The Cougars hit Download a copy of the NCAA Basketball Bracket four 3s and another field goal without UTC scoring at all to pull within 54-48. Then Charleston pulled within five points with 8:30 to play.

Doaks didn’t care about the shrinking of the lead. He grabbed an airballed 3-point attempt by tournament MVP Stephen McDowell and put the ball through the rim for two easy points to stem the tide.

“I’ll remember Doaks’ offensive rebound off an air ball because that was a big play,” Shulman said. “All of a sudden things weren’t rolling at that time. We were a little scattered and shaky, and I think Doaks grabbing that ball and putting it in was a big play.”

The putback gave UTC a 58-51 lead with 6:32 to go.

After a series of misses from both teams, Goffney rose in front of UTC’s rim to slam home another missed McDowell 3. Patterson’s 40-footer may have made “SportsCenter,” but Goffney’s second dunk of the season turned a Charleston victory into an impossibility.

“I thought KG’s dunk was what sealed the deal,” Shulman said. “It said we’re not backing down and we’re not losing this.”

Wiedmer: Celebration was Waffle House meal

Wednesday, March 11, 2009

By: Mark Wiedmer (Contact) Scattered.

Smothered.

Covered.

Peppered.

That’s how John Shulman celebrated the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga’s second NCAA tournament berth in his five years on the job late Monday night.

No champagne toasts or lavish parties for the Mocs basketball coach. No loud music, except the UTC pep band’s repeated rousing renditions of the ESPN theme song.

Just the coach and his brother Jim sharing a booth at an otherwise empty Waffle House two and a half hours after the Mocs’ Southern Conference tourney win over the College of Charleston.

“I got the double cheeseburger platter with hashbrowns,” Shulman said Tuesday at the start of more than two hours worth of interviews, most of them national in nature.

And how does he take his hashbrowns?

“Scattered, smothered, covered and peppered,” he said with a grin. “Is there any other way?’

When you’re from a true mid-major league like the SoCon, there is only one way to reach March Madness. You win you conference tourney, as UTC did, or you hope for an NIT bid.

But now that the Mocs are in, speculation is running rampant concerning what seed they will be assigned and what region they’ll be placed in. ESPN even has them traveling to Dayton, Ohio, for the play-in game next Tuesday.

That contest pits the 64th and 65th teams in the 65-team field, with the winner emerging as a 16th seed in one of the four regionals. Because Dayton also is a first- and second-round site this year, the play-in winner presumably would remain there for those games.

But at least one former selection committee member with strong ties to the SoCon cautions against Moc Maniacs making any travel plans to Ohio next week.

“It’s very premature to be considering who’s in that play-in game,” Les Robinson, the retired Citadel athletic director, said Tuesday evening. “ESPN’s job is to speculate. But I can promise you that there’s way too much basketball left to be played this week to know right now about the play-in game.”

What Robinson thinks he knows is that “this just might be the toughest job the committee’s ever had. Not just for the NCAA tournament, but the NIT, as well. Parity has reached an all-time high.”

Much as the NCAA tourney selection committee will hunker down in Indianapolis beginning tonight, Robinson will also

http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/2009/mar/11/wiedmer-celebration-was-waffle-house... 3/11/2009 Page 2 of 2

travel to the Hoosier State later this week as a member of the NIT selection committee, since the NCAA also oversees that event.

When it comes to where the 18-16 Mocs will be placed, Robinson said every fact and statistic will be used.

“Everything’s looked at,” he said. “It’s your whole body of work. And it’s not all about the RPI (Ratings Power Index, which some liken to the BCS formula). The committee uses the RPI ratings for conferences and individual teams as a tool, but computers don’t know everything. If it was all RPI, you wouldn’t need a committee.”

Shulman said he’d prefer to pass on the play-in game. He also said, “But if we’re there, I’ll have our guys mad about being disrespected.”

It is worth noting that the selection committee has never disrespected the Southern Conference in such a way. No previous SoCon champ has been placed in the play-in game. And with a conference RPI of 21 out of 31 leagues, it’s doubtful the Mocs will become the first.

A personal hunch? UTC will face No. 1 North Carolina in Greensboro on March 19.

Still, knowing the details is five days away.

Late Monday, Shulman wanted only to escape to a Waffle House booth where all he was asked was, “What do you want to drink? ‘Diet Coke.’ Otherwise, they don’t know you and they don’t give a rip. And that’s just fine with me.”

Besides, he’d experienced his warm and fuzzy memory a few minutes earlier.

“I go in the locker room, our team’s just sitting there,” Shulman began. “Everybody’s got their championship T-shirts on. Everybody’s exhausted. (Wife) Amy Shulman’s there. (Sons) Max, Tanner and J.C. are in there. Our trainers are there. Our managers are in there. I’m just talking to them. It was one of those moments I didn’t want to end.”

Wiedmer: Shulman’s faith in Harvey and Early a stroke of genius

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

By: Mark Wiedmer (Contact) Let’s say you had been coaching the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga basketball team instead of John Shulman on Monday night in the Southern Conference tournament title game.

You’ve got five senior starters who each play at least 26 minutes a game. You’ve got a capable reserve who is on the court almost that often. You’ve got a couple of other guys hitting the floor for about eight minutes a game.

Then, down near the end of your bench sits Dante Harvey, who’s averaging 1.6 points in a little less than six minutes per contest.

Harvey’s so valuable that Shulman hadn’t played him a single minute in 14 of the Mocs’ last 18 games, including the first two SoCon tourney games. Thanks partly to an early-season foot injury, the 6-foot-6 freshman from Lithonia, Ga., has collected more splinters than points. They haven’t had to wash his uniform since Christmas.

So if you’re the coach, and your long-term employment future might rest on this single night, are you sending Harvey in against the College of Charleston less than five minutes along?

No, you’re not. You’ve watched the Mocs lose 47 games the past three winters and you kind of think a few of the fans had it right when they called Shulman stupid after a 22-point home loss to Davidson earlier this season.

Or you might be the guy who cornered him outside his son’s elementary school a few days ago with a handful of helpful coaching tips.

And until this weekend, maybe you had a few legitimate reasons for your anger and your doubt. Especially after Charleston coach Bobby Cremins told a local radio station that the once mighty Mocs program “Isn’t what it used to be.”

Ouch.

But this is also why Shulman is heading to the NCAA tournament this morning for the second time in five years after the Mocs rocked the Cougars 80-69. Because Harvey didn’t just play: He played well enough to score six points in 96 seconds. Down 8-4 when he entered, the Mocs caught the Cougars at 12.

Then Shulman pulled a second rabbit out of his coaching bag 10 minutes later with another freshman forward, Chris Early, who didn’t play a second against Samford in Sunday’s semifinal game and didn’t score a point against Elon a night earlier.

All Early did against Charleston was total six points and five rebounds in four masterful minutes.

Think Shulman’s stupid now?

“Those guys responded,” the coach said with a smile as most of the crowd of 5,042 inside McKenzie Arena danced around him. “Donte hadn’t played a minute in a month of Sundays. But I told him this afternoon we were going to put him in, and he responded big-time.”

As for Early, well, “We were in foul trouble,” Shulman said. “I imagine I’m going to hear a lot that we may need to play them more, huh?”

http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/2009/mar/10/wiedmer-shulmans-faith-harvey-and-ea... 3/12/2009 Page 2 of 2

It doesn’t always work, of course. The Mocs aren’t 18-16 today because Shulman pressed all the right buttons this season. But he also understood after a 2-8 start and 0-3 SoCon beginning that three days in March meant everything.

Winning three games in three days isn’t easy if you’re North Carolina, much less UTC. You need good coaching, you need good playing and you need a little luck. And the Mocs certainly had all three. As much as Harvey and Early delivered an unexpected spark in the beginning, Kevin Goffney doused a white-hot Charleston comeback late with a tip-in dunk. It was his second of the year.

Then there was the 40-foot 3-pointer Ty Patterson hit with the shot clock between one second and zero midway through the final period.

“That’s just the way we draw it up,” Shulman said with a grin. “I wait for the shot clock to hit two seconds, then yell, ‘Shoot it!’”

Yet to ask Patterson about that shot was to get this: “We work on that play every day in practice.”

Amazingly, his father Ricky recalled that his son “hit at least one of those a game back at Westside (High in Anderson, S.C.). That was no fluke.”

Nor was this title. Coaching is mostly about putting the right people in the right place at the right time. When it mattered most, Shulman did that extraordinarily well. He saw the fresh legs of Harvey and Early and knew they could make an impact. He also knew freshmen weren’t likely to overextend their talent.

“My mindset was to come in and play hard, defend and rebound,” Harvey said. “The scoring just came along.”

Added Early, “He told us this was just another game. Just play hard. But to go to the NCAA tournament is a dream come true.”

Shulman also believed Cremins’ comments about his program were a motivational dream come true.

“Are you kidding me?” he said with a laugh. “We talked about it all the time.”

And once this game was won the UTC fans talked about it, too.

“We are what we used to be!” they chanted from sections 103 and 104. “We are what we used to be!”

Because their coach wasn’t afraid to use his bench early and often, they are a championship program once more.

Epps: Lunch bunch kept Shulman positive

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

By: Darren Epps Here’s what you should know: John Shulman cares about what you say. He pays attention, maybe too much attention.

We’ve all seen him so animated on the sideline, somehow making Bruce Pearl the second-most spastic coach in the state of Tennessee. Well, you know, that part of his personality doesn’t just shut off after the game.

So when the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga was 4-10, 0-3 in the Southern Conference — long before the Mocs were cutting down nets Monday and making NCAA tournament plans — Shulman was experiencing the emotions of every single irate fan. He soaked in their anger. I even got e-mails calling for Shulman’s dismissal. The man was hurt.

And that’s when he got a text from a friend, Brad McCawley, inviting him to lunch. Shulman declined, saying he was going to stay inside and watch video. That’s fine, McCawley wrote back, but we’re either eating lunch in your office or dragging you out to eat.

“Everybody was hating him,” said McCawley, who works for Coca-Cola and met Shulman soon after he arrived in Chattanooga. “He was hating life.”

McCawley and Ryan May, also a Coca-Cola employee and Shulman’s friend, dragged Shulman out of the office and into Armando’s Restaurant on Main Street in Chattanooga. And boom, just like that, the Armando’s Lunch Club was born. Same place every week. Same booth every week.

“John worries so much about everything else and other people and what people are thinking about him, and he puts so much pressure on himself that sometimes you need him to get away,” May said. “We had those lunches to make him focus on the positive. We had to get him out. We told him not to be so down on the kids.”

How much did those lunch sessions mean to Shulman? He mentioned Brad and Ryan by name following the 80-69 win over Charleston, without any prompting, when talking about how he kept the Mocs together after such a brutal start.

Shulman first thanked his wife, one of probably two women who liked Shulman in early January (we’ll get to the other in a bit). And then he thanked Ryan and Brad.

“They changed my coaching that first day they took me to lunch,” Shulman said. “I became more positive. I completely changed.”

A lady saw Shulman that day and approached the embattled coach. She told him hello. Shulman, knowing him, probably braced for the ridicule. But she simply said, “Coach, you’re going a great job.” Matt and Brad smiled.

“See?” they told him. “People do actually like you!”

It was the positive reinforcement Shulman, who is just so hard on himself, needed at a critical time in the season, a time when he was going to either keep the team together or lose it.

And everyone likes him now. Shulman and College of Charleston coach Bobby Cremins went to the locker rooms to make adjustments at halftime of a 34-34 game. Shulman changed UTC’s defensive look. The Mocs went on a 20-0 run.

“We got outcoached,” Cremins said.

http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/2009/mar/10/epps-lunch-bunch-kept-shulman-positiv... 3/12/2009 Page 2 of 2

And the Mocs didn’t wilt when College of Charleston cut their lead to five points with 8:30 remaining. What’s one blown lead when you’ve been criticized most of the season? Like the Mocs were going to unravel now.

Shulman didn’t panic. He simply, thanks to a lunch two months earlier, remained positive. He joked with Keyron Sheard about making those three big free throws in the second half, saying a Jersey kid shouldn’t feel any pressure. Imagine that: Shulman turning into a comic during a crucial situation.

“I want to give Matt and Brad a lot of credit,” Shulman said. “People are going to love me now. They didn’t love me down 22-2 to Western Carolina. I wasn’t hearing a whole lot of good things said about me. After the Davidson game I was stupid. I heard that one. I’m not stupid now.”

Monday, March 9, 2009 An unlikely champion silences the critics

By Chris Low ESPN.com

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- As the final seconds ticked down Monday night in the Southern Conference championship game, a guy stood behind the Chattanooga bench holding up a sign that read simply: Believe.

"Unbelievable" would have worked, too.

Who was this Chattanooga team about to advance to just its second NCAA tournament since that magical Sweet 16 run a dozen years ago?

Even Mocs coach John Shulman admitted that the only people who believed back in January that this would have been remotely possible were the guys in his locker room and maybe his wife and three sons.

"My wife and children love me regardless," explained Shulman, whose Mocs started out 4-10 overall and 0-3 in the league.

But on Monday night the love was flowing in McKenzie Arena as the pro-Chattanooga crowd basked in the Mocs' 80-69 win over College of Charleston, another reminder that March has a way of both defining and deflating a team's season in the realm of college hoops.

The Mocs (18-16) were about as schizophrenic as it gets this season. Their schedule was brutal to start the season, and they lost five in a row to the likes of Tennessee, Missouri, Memphis and Southern California.

There was a lackluster home loss to Wofford in early January, followed by five straight wins, then a blowout loss at home to Davidson and another Keyron Sheard is one of five Chattanooga senior starters who stretch when the Mocs won six of seven games. will play in the NCAA tourney for the first time. Coming into this tournament, they had lost three in a row.

Granted, the venue was a friendly one for Chattanooga, but this was supposed to be the Stephen Curry Show. And if by some chance the darling of last year's NCAA tournament did happen to bow out early here, then The Citadel or perhaps College of Charleston offered the most compelling story lines.

But Chattanooga?

"We stayed together through thick and thin and stayed together when nobody believed in us … and did something special," Shulman said.

He made a sort of victory lap around the arena when it was over. One of his five senior starters, guard Keyron Sheard, jumped up on the media row table to pump his fist to the crowd, only to slip and fall.

1 of 3 3/10/2009 10:36 AM ESPN.com - An unlikely champion silences the critics http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/print?id=3966169&type=story

He lay there for a moment and soaked it all in.

"We've been through so much this year and continued to battle through anything and everything," said Sheard, who led Chattanooga with 18 points.

There was some irony in Shulman's salute to the crowd. He wasn't the most popular guy around Chattanooga this basketball season. The fans were down on him and down on his team.

And when Curry and Davidson stormed into McKenzie Arena back in late January, a season-high crowd of 9,234 turned out and people got exactly what they came to see, according to Shulman, the disgust in his voice still obvious.

"They didn't come to watch us that night. They came to watch Curry, and he put on a show," Shulman said.

Curry dropped 32 points on the Mocs, who managed to channel that disappointment in a positive way.

Even now, Shulman sounds almost bitter about some of the things he and his team weathered.

Make that bitter and ecstatic at the same time.

"When you're a coach, people are going to love me now," Shulman said. "They didn't love me when we were down 22-2 to Western Carolina. There weren't a whole lot of good things said about me then. After the Davidson game, I was stupid. I heard that one, too.

"I'm not stupid tonight." Chattanooga coach John Shulman heard groans throughout the season, but he was cutting down the In a microcosm of their topsy-turvy season, the Mocs were nets on Monday. really good for parts of the first half, allowed the Cougars to tie the score at halftime, then reeled off a knockout-size 20-0 run to start the second half.

College of Charleston didn't score its first points of the second half until more than six and a half minutes were gone.

But even then, Chattanooga had to hold off a frantic charge by College of Charleston, which was fueled by 31 points from Tony White Jr. The Cougars (26-8) got within five points with eight and a half minutes to play.

Chattanooga had an answer, though, highlighted by senior forward Kevin Goffney's soaring one-handed dunk-back of a missed shot.

"We just refused to lose, man," Goffney said.

Or, as College of Charleston's Andrew Goudelock put it, "Every time we did something right, they did something better."

Long after the celebration had ended and the Mocs had cut down the nets Monday, Shulman walked back across the court and stole a quick glance up into the stands.

There sat his brother, Jim.

They already had their celebration set. They were headed to the Waffle House, which is the same way they celebrated four years ago when Chattanooga earned its first bid to the NCAA Tournament under Shulman.

"He sort of pulled a Jim Valvano, ran around the court and celebrated, went and did his press conference, and I was the only one left when he got back out here," Jim quipped. "I said, 'What do you want to do? He said, 'I'm hungry,' so we went to Waffle House.

"I think he had hash browns, scattered and smothered."

It's a delicacy Shulman only allows himself for these kind of moments.

"I don't care how long you do it," Shulman said. "If you go to the NCAA tournament, there's nothing more special in this profession."

Said like a coach who believes.

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga roller coaster ending as a thrill

Friday, March 13, 2009

By: David Uchiyama (Contact)

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men’s basketball team had its share of highs and lows throughout its championship season.

The Mocs suffered injuries, lost games they should have won, won games they should have lost, won the Southern Conference North Division on a night they lost a game and ended the regular season with three consecutive losses.

But they won three games in the conference tournament to claim the championship Monday in McKenzie Arena. After losing their first five games of the season, they take an 18-16 record into the NCAA tournament.

“Every team has ups and downs,” senior Kevin Goffney said. “You just have to have faith in the system.”

Nov. 6 at Tennessee

The Mocs suffered a significant blow 33 seconds into the regular season. Goffney, the team’s most important player, fractured his right ankle in an 114-75 loss to the Vols. Goffney missed the next five games, played against Davidson and sat for three more games leading into the holiday break.

“It’s disappointing not only for the team, but for Kevin, seeing as how he worked out so hard this summer,” coach John Shulman said then. “The season goes on and hopefully, we will have him back in three weeks.”

Dec. 30 vs. Niagara

UTC shooting guard Stephen McDowell tied a UTC single-game record with nine 3-pointers in a 99-84 victory over Niagara. McDowell was 9-of-15 from behind the 3-point line to tie Wes Moore, who hit nine against Wofford in 1997. That win over the Purple Eagles is UTC’s best of the season based on RPI ratings.

Jan. 28 vs. Davidson

A season-high crowd of 9,234 packed McKenzie Arena, but half of those fans were in the building to see Stephen Curry and the Davidson Wildcats. UTC had lost 100-95 to the Wildcats in December, giving the Mocs hope of defeating the preseason favorites. But Curry didn’t disappoint, netting 32 points including a 75-footer at the halftime buzzer.

“It’s like a lottery pick playing in the SoCon,” Shulman said. “He was in the womb thinking about this play and that play. He’s just so good.”

Feb. 7 at Furman

The Mocs had already choked away would-be wins at Georgia Southern and against Wofford. They took choking to an extreme against the Paladins by blowing an 18-point second-half lead. Furman was the last Division I team to win a Division I game and finished last in the SoCon South Division.

“We pretty much gave it to them,” Goffney said. “We gave away a game we should have easily won.”

March 9 vs. College of Charleston

The Mocs culminated the season with a Southern Conference crown. They defeated the Cougars 80-69 with 18 points from senior point guard Keyron Sheard. UTC dispatched Elon 79-78 in the quarterfinals and beat Samford 81-70 in the semifinals to reach the championship game. UTC opened the second half with a 20-0 run for a 54-34 lead, but Charleston later pulled within five points.

Young Chattanooga Mocs get extra practice, too

Saturday, March 14, 2009

By: David Uchiyama (Contact)

Keegan Bell has been waiting all season for the end of the season.

He’ll gladly wait longer than expected.

The transfer from Vanderbilt has sat out this basketball season for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Once it’s over, he’ll be the Mocs’ point guard and one of their leaders and itching even more to take the floor.

But the Mocs (18-16) won the Southern Conference tournament on Monday and received an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. That may begin as early as Tuesday if they’re assigned to the play-in game, or as late as Friday depending on their destination.

Extending the season as long as the Mocs keep winning means they get to keep practicing. Bell and a crew of seven underclassmen get a few more chances to practice under the supervision of coach John Shulman. It’s akin to the extra practices a college football team receives before playing a bowl game.

“I don’t mind being on hold so everybody can get the tournament experience,” said Bell, who went to the 2008 NCAA tournament with the Commodores. “It’s been a long year, but a few more weeks is just fine.

“To have more time on the court with my teammates is always a good thing, and we can keep pushing the seniors and helping them any way we can.”

Freshman forwards Dante Harvey and Chris Early made crucial contributions in the Mocs’ 80-69 championship win over the College of Charleston in McKenzie Arena.

With senior power forward Nicchaeus Doaks saddled with two fouls in the first half, Harvey scored six points in seven first-half minutes. Early scored six points and grabbed five rebounds in just four minutes.

“It was a matter of me getting back to where I was,” said Harvey, who sprained his foot Jan. 17 and had lingering pain most of the season. “Monday was the day the trainer said I could take off my brace, and when I took it off, I knew that it was on.”

Harvey and Early proved they can play in a big situation, which does nothing but boost their confidence.

“It’s one thing if they’re sitting over there on the bench and we win,” Shulman said. “It’s another thing to score six points in two minutes and we win. Both of those guys were major parts of our success.

“It gives them belief, something to work for and say, ‘Hey, if I can do that, just wait.’”

The Mocs returned to practice Friday after a shortened spring-break vacation. Some players never left town.

They gathered before practice for a team picture with the North Division and SoCon tournament trophies positioned front and center. Shulman is treating the extra sessions similar to football spring practices.

“We get extra practice days with these kids, and we’ll take full advantage,” the coach said. “I’m not out here just working with the young guys. We’re going to practice hard because I’m going to make sure the kids are not happy just playing in the tournament.”

The Mocs are slated to practice twice today with a Boys’ & Girls’ Club clinic in between. They could be greeted as local heroes.

“The biggest benefit is that they got a taste of all this,” Shulman said. “They get to taste it, and for the young guys, it never
