THE YEAR HONORS
by
Brian Holloway
DAYTONA
BEACH,
Fla., May 7,
2008
–
North
Carolina A&T softball coach Mamie Jones knew if you build it they will
come. She waited patiently for a new on-campus softball facility to be
built. Once The Lady Aggies Softball Complex was completed in 2005,
top-notch recruits indeed came. Her
efforts in advocating for a new facility to be constructed and her
efforts in bringing in excellent players over the last several seasons
culminated in Jones being named the 2008 MEAC Coach of the Year
Wednesday night at the MEAC Softball Tournament Banquet in Daytona
Beach, Fla. .
