The COVID-19 pandemic brought about dramatic changes in your work lives. The compassion you show while providing the highest quality care and service make you our healthcare heroes. We’re grateful for all you do. usajaguars.com 7 TWO SIDES TO LEWIS’ STORY AS SENIOR SECURES PLACE IN JAGUAR WOMEN’S BASKETBALL HISTORY Why has Antoinette Lewis experienced so much success with the University of South Alabama women’s basketball program over the last three years?

A prime reason for that could be seen should’ve known that was coming. It was time “I think that comes from having an older back when the team was taking part in a for it to end, and she just throws her cards brother, he made literally everything in the community service event at the St. Mary’s down and asks, ‘What are you doing? Why house competitive especially when he was Home in Mobile and she was involved in a are you letting her win?

My mom played basketball too. With basketball with the kids, we sat and talked expecting.” him, it was always about seeing who was and laughed with the girls. It was a lot of That attitude, though, may be one of the going to bring home the better grades, going fun,” she explained. “We were playing a game primary reasons why the 6-foot-1 forward/ outside and racing to see who was the fastest, of UNO, it lasted for an hour.

Lest one thinks that she is just a competitor “He shouldn’t have played if he was just That’s where Lewis grew up in a household driven by results, there’s a different side of going to quit.” that included her brother Quinton, who was Lewis that can’t be seen watching her perform “She was right, but I had had enough,” four years older, as well as three younger on the court. There’s another story to be told, Fowler recalled. “It caught me off guard, but I sisters: Ayanna, Aisha and Anaya. one from less than a month ago.

8 jaguar magazine As Fowler was sitting in his office one day, assistant coach Mansa El brought a note that was left on her windshield. It read, “Hey, sorry you have to come out and see your car that way. I thought I could fit, but I couldn’t. I will pay for the damages ... I am so sorry and hope that we can work this out.” That note was left by Lewis after she had accidentally hit El’s vehicle in the Mitchell Center parking lot. “I just felt bad, when it happened I cried,” she said. “It made me mad because I messed up my car as well. I was looking at it thinking what am I going to do? Our manager Kaylee Crumley came up so I asked her for some paper and a pencil, I didn’t have anything on me. I just did it because I know how I would feel in that situation if I came out and saw that my car was messed up. It needed to be fixed and I like to fix things.” It’s for that reason that Lewis is revered in the Jaguars’ locker room. “Antoinette cares about her teammates, she is really a conscientious young lady,” observed Fowler. “She is not afraid to voice her opinion, she has a strong personality, but at the end of the day she is really caring. Those are the reasons why her teammates love her and care about her.” Of course, they also appreciate her contributions in competition. In three years, Lewis has accumulated 1,264 points, 860 rebounds, 168 blocks, and over 100 assists and steals as well, all while connecting on nearly 54 percent from the floor. She already stands among the top It wasn’t communication with Ellis that helped Lewis adjust to 10 in school history in rebounds, blocked shots, field-goal percentage the collegiate level as a freshman, but rather the ability to garner and double-doubles — of which she has 32 and counting — while also information she might not have seen had she been thrown into the fray ranking among the team’s all-time leaders with 66 games scoring in earlier. double digits including 17 outings with 20 or more points. “We didn’t sit down and talk, but I learned what works against the Her efforts have helped the Jags never finish below .500 in her time teams we faced by watching her play,” she observed. “Coming off the with the program, including 20-win seasons each of her first two years bench, you can see things that are open and available that you might not as South earned invitations to both the Women’s Basketball Invitational necessarily see in the middle of the game.

But I also know that motivated us last year to say that won’t said Lewis. “My approach doesn’t really change regardless of what team happen again, when we get there it’s ours.

Lewis arrived at South prior to the start of the 2017-18 school year, She was a second-team all-conference selection a year ago, and was wasting little time in finding a role on the team. Playing primarily averaging a double-double with 13.2 points and 10.1 boards per contest behind Chyna Ellis, she would appear in all 34 of USA’s contests — after the Jags won their first two games at the conference tournament including starting seven times — and put together averages of nine and were head to New Orleans to play in the semifinals when the points and 6.1 rebounds to go along with 43 blocked shots.

But that’s not what has driven Lewis to the levels “We felt like Antoinette would be behind Chyna Ellis early and she has achieved over the last three seasons. thought that would be a good way for her to learn from the two-time “I don’t care about my personal accolades, whether I’m averaging a Defensive Player of the Year and the all-time leader in blocked shots in double-double or not, whether I’m playing the whole game or just 10 the Sun Belt Conference, but she proved that she could carry her own minutes,” Lewis said. “I show up each and every day and do what I need weight,” explained Fowler. “After she had a really good freshman year, to do to help my team win, that has been my expectation from sixth we thought she had a chance to be one of the all-time greats here.

Steve Campbell was hired as head football coach at the University of South Alabama prior to the 2018 season after recording three national championships as both a student-athlete and coach in addition to posting a career .750 winning percentage over 19 years while leading four different institutions. He enters his third year at the helm of the program with an overall record of 164-72 (69.5%) and a 65-42 (60.7%) mark at the NCAA level. In his first season guiding the Jaguars, South faced a schedule that featured eight opponents who would go on to play in a postseason bowl including both participants in the inaugural Sun Belt Conference Championship Game as well as American Athletic Conference West Division champion Memphis. Under his direction nine Jags picked up all-Sun Belt honors and senior wide receiver Jamarius Way — who was among the top three in the league in catches and receiving yards per contest — received an invitation to participate in the annual NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. His efforts also helped junior running back Tra Minter lead the conference and rank in the top 10 in the country in all-purpose yards per game, highlighted by the first 200-yard game rushing in program history in a season-ending victory over Coastal Carolina. Last fall, South would take on a pair of nationally-ranked opponents and two other programs that would win their division in league play including a Memphis team that received the Group of 5’s bid to a New Year’s 6 Bowl after facing Penn State in the Cotton Bowl Classic; in fact, both the Tigers and eventual Sun Belt champion Appalachian State would end up in the top 20 of the final Associated Press and coaches’ top-25 rankings. The Jaguars ended the campaign with a 34-30 victory over Arkansas State — a team that would go on to win its bowl game — that saw the offense tie a school game record with four touchdown passes. Following the season, Minter became the second individual in program history to receive All-America recognition after earning honorable mention honors from Phil Steele Publications as he ranked second in the country with an average of 161.92 all-purpose yards per game while becoming the first 1,000-yard rusher ever at USA. He was one of seven individuals to garner all-Sun Belt honors as well. South also performed at a high level in the classroom, posting a cumulative grade-point average above a 2.8 in the spring as nearly 60 individuals in the program recorded a 3.0 mark or better during the semester despite the challenges presented by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Not only was it the highest semester GPA in program history, the team also achieved its best-ever NCAA Academic Progress Rate single year score in the most recent report released by the organization. In his first two seasons in charge of the program, five student-athletes have been named academic all-district with Rowan Godwin going on to be selected second-team Academic All-America in 2018. Campbell, 54, came to South after a four-year stint at Central Arkansas, where he guided the Bears to 33-15 mark including a record of 24-3 in the Southland Conference his last three seasons, during which time the Bears finished no lower than second in the league standings. UCA went 10-2 and claimed the conference title with a 9-0 mark in 2017 to earn the No. 4 seed in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision playoffs. In addition to being named the Southland Coach of the Year, the Bears claimed four of the league’s other six individual awards, with 10 first-team
