For just the second time in JSU's Division I history, the Gamecocks are competing in a national postseason tournament. Ray Harper, in his first season at the helm last year, led Jacksonville State to its first OVC Tournament title and appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
Â
With the March 14 win over Canisius in the first round of the SBI in Buffalo, N.Y., the Gamecocks pushed their Division I record for most wins in a single season to 22. The previous record for wins in a Division I season by a JSU team was set in 2002-03 by then-head coach Mike LaPlante at 20 and later tied by Ray Harper in 2016-17. The school record for wins in a single season is 31, posted in 1984-85 under legendary head coach Bill Jones. JSU was 31-1 that season, going on to win the Division II National Championship.
