“The mediocre coach tells; The good coach explains; The superior coach demonstrates; The great coach inspires.” “Someone once said that the most important aspect of coaching is teaching. That is not true. Everyone teaches. The most important aspect of coaching is making sure that what is taught is learned.”
“Good coaching may be defined as the developing of character, personality and habits of players, plus the efficient teaching of fundamentals and team play.” 4 AASU has won two Peach Belt Conference Championships Head Coach Jeff Burkhamer
Jeff Burkhamer Head Men’s Basketball Coach
Jeff Burkhamer enters his second season as head men’s basketball coach at Armstrong Atlantic State University. Burkhamer directed a Pirates’ squad whose tallest player was 6’7” and, after a 1-7 start, finished the season with a 12-7 record in the Peach Belt, good for fourth place, and a 14-14 overall mark. The Pirates went 3-1 against two nationally-ranked clubs in 2002-03 - conference rivals Columbus State and Kennesaw State - and advanced to the Peach Belt Conference Quarterfinals. Burkhamer joined AASU as its ninth head men’s basketball coach on June 10, 2002. A native of Williamstown, West Virginia, Burkhamer had been at Marshall University for four seasons under head coach Greg White, first as an assistant coach and then, in 2001-2002, as associate head coach. While at Marshall, Burkhamer helped the Thundering Herd to a 70-44 record in four seasons in Mid-American Conference play. Prior to joining Marshall, Burkhamer served as the head coach at Santa Fe Community College in Gainesville, Fla., leading the Saints to two Mid-Florida Conference titles. He earned National Junior College Coach of the Year honors by College Sport Magazine in 1995-96 as the Saints set a school record with 28 wins and also won 21 straight games to begin the season, gaining a No. 5 NJCAA national ranking and finishing the year with a 28-4 record. In four seasons, the Saints went 97-31 under Coach Burkhamer. Burkhamer also served as an assistant coach for three seasons in the Continental Basketball Association (CBA), the developmental league of the NBA, with the Grand Rapids Hoops before leading the Santa Fe program and previously served as a head coach at North Greenville College in Tigerville, S.C., where he went 58-10 in two seasons and earned NJCAA Region 10 Coach of the Year honors twice from 1989-1991. A graduate of Alderson-Broaddus College in Philippi, West Virginia, Burkhamer was a four-year letterman for the Battlers in basketball and baseball and holds the school’s all-time assist mark with 646. Burkhamer was inducted into the Battler Hall of Fame in 2001. He graduated from Alderson-Broaddus with a bachelor’s degree in secondary education in 1984 and earned his master’s degree in health and physical education from Morehead State in 1989. He started his coach- ing career as an assistant coach at Winthrop University in 1984-85, the moved to Charleston Southern University (1985- 87) and Morehead State University (1987-89). Burkhamer is no stranger to the Coastal Empire area as he was on the staff at Charleston Southern in 1986-87 when the Buccaneers won the first two Big South Conference Championships were held in Savannah, Ga. Charleston Southern played Armstrong State during conference play that season. Burkhamer is married to the former Diane Depler of Stow, Ohio, and the couple have two children - Melissa (12) and Lindsey (7).

Questions and Answers with AASU Head Coach Jeff Burkhamer
• What were the most important factors in your decision to become the head basketball coach at Armstrong Atlantic? There were a number of factors that went into my decision. First of all, I wanted to be a head coach again and run my own program. I truly enjoy making the tough decisions and love running practices and coaching in games. Second, I wanted to live in the South and in a city where my family would enjoy living. The beautiful city of Savannah, the beach and the weather fulfilled that wish. Third, I wanted to coach at a school where I thought we could be successful and have a first-class basketball program. Our facilities are outstanding, we have scholarship money available, we have as good a housing situation as anyone at any level in the country, and possibly the most important factor - we have an administration that cares about basketball and winning. As a former college basketball player, President Jones understands athletics and knows what needs to be done in order to have quality programs. He wants us to be successful and will be very supportive of our program. When you combine all of these factors, my decision was very easy. • What is your initial impression of the Peach Belt Conference? The Peach Belt Conference is one of the top leagues in the country in all sports. The basketball teams and coaches are outstanding. There are very good athletes and very good players in our league. We have veteran coaches in our league that do a terrific job of preparing their teams. I’ve been impressed with the quality of play, with the quality of coaching and with the quality of facilities in the Peach Belt Conference. I feel our league stacks up well against any league in the country. • What do you feel makes AASU an attractive place to play college basketball and pursue an education.

Steve Ray Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach
Steve Ray begins his fourth season on the Armstrong Atlantic State men’s basketball staff as a Pirates’ assistant coach. Promoted from his graduate assistant coaching position in 2001, Ray will be in his seventh year at AASU following a stellar two-year playing career for the Pirates from 1997-1999. Ray earned his bachelor’s degree in English communications in 2000 from AASU and recently completed his Master’s degree in public health from AASU. Ray’s playing career took him from Penn Valley CC in Kansas City, Mo., where he helped the Scouts to the 1995-96 NJCAA National Championship, to the Pirates, where he set AASU marks for three-point shooting, hitting 163 of 379 shots (43%). At Penn Valley, Ray was a two-time first-team All-Region selection and earned NJCAA All- Tournament and Academic All-America honors. While at AASU, Ray was the 1999 President’s Cup award winner, given to the top Pirate student-athlete. Ray will assist head coach Jeff Burkhamer in all aspects of the basketball program in 2003-04. He was recently married to former AASU volleyball standout and current head athletic trainer Mylene Benito, and together the couple live in Savannah. Coach Burkhamer: “Steve Ray is a valuable asset to our basketball program. His knowledge of our university, the surrounding area and the Peach Belt Conference made my transition to AASU an easy one. Steve is a former Pirate player and was the President’s Cup recipient at AASU, given to the top student-athlete at the school each year. He can tell recruits exactly what it is like to attend AASU because he knows first hand what its like to be a Pirate student-athlete. Steve does an outstanding job on the court with our players and is very involved on campus with academics, financial aid and admissions. Steve is asked to perform a variety of duties in our program with an emphasis on recruit- Steve and Mylene Ray ing. Steve has a very good understanding of what needs to be done in all areas of the program.” Travis Priddy Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach
Travis Priddy begins his second year with the AASU men’s basketball program in 2003-04, serving as a Pirates assistant coach. A 1998 graduate of West Virginia State, Priddy began his coaching career as the head coach of the Teays Valley, W. Va., AAU squad and moved into the high school ranks as an assistant coach at Winfield HS from 1996 to 2000. The Charleston, W. Va., native then served as an assistant coach at his alma mater, West Virginia State, in 2000-2001, and moved to Hastings College as the top assistant coach for the Broncos in 2001-02 before joining the Pirates. Priddy, 30, is single and resides in Savannah. Coach Burkhamer: “I’ve known Travis Priddy for a number of years. Travis is a West Virginia native and has served as a coach at my summer basketball camp. Travis is very involved on the court with our players and has been instrumental in the promotion of our basketball program. Academic development, videotape break- down and recruiting are just a few of the duties that he is involved with at AASU. His work ethic and understanding of the game make him very marketable once he finishes his master’s degree at the end of the year.” Ray hit 43 percent of his 3-point shots in two years with AASU 7 Meet The Pirates

ith a history as long as the existence of basketball at Armstrong, the Dearing Cup has become a symbol W among the Pirate faithful for dedication, preparation and ex- ecution on the basketball court. Named for longtime Savannah and Armstrong Atlantic State basketball supporter Ashley Dearing, the Dearing Cup is awarded to the AASU player with the best free throw percentage each season. Listed below are the winners of the Dearing Cup - an award that has been given each of the past 49 years. Last year, junior Brian Bain (right, pictured receiving the award from Ashley Dearing) captured the Dearing Cup by hitting 100 of his 137 free throws for an outstanding .730 free throw percentage. Bain ranked 10th in the Peach Belt Conference in that category and was the Pirates’ second- leading scorer, averaging 14.3 points per game and scoring 399 points on the season. The list of former winners of the Ashley Dearing Cup reads as a who’s- who of Armstrong Atlantic State basketball - from AASU Athletic Hall of Famers Foy Ballance and Danny Sims to All-Americans Ike Williams and Danny Stell to current Savannah Country Day head boys basketball coach Mike Harner.
