Building a strong and solid tradition takes work and sweat as well as time and energy. The success doesn't come overnight.
Some steps are small.
Others are larger. Quite often, the progression is not on the fast track. The Beloit College men's basketball team made significant progress toward rebuilding that tradition during the 2000-01 season as Head Coach Cecil Youngblood and his group of hardwood athletes produced plenty of light at the end of that tunnel of success. Youngblood, in his fourth season as Beloit's coach, has brought that winning tradition back to Wisconsin's oldest college. This season's record continues the improvement, and the winning conference record is the team's first since 1994-95.
