Sustained Excellence in Nashville
(St. Louis, MO) – Belmont has won at least nineteen games for 19 straight seasons. Only Gonzaga, Kansas and San Diego State can also make that claim. If the Bruins win a game at Arch Madness, they will have won twenty games for the fourteenth straight season.
Head coach Casey Alexander played and coached at Belmont under the legendary Rick Byrd. After coaching stints at Stetson and Lipscomb he ‘came home’ and has led the Bruin program for the past five seasons.
The Bruins (19-12, 12-8) play Valparaiso in Thursday’s opening round of the Missouri Valley Conference men’s basketball tournament. We spoke with coach Alexander about the Valley, his team’s transition from the Ohio Valley Conference, his current roster and even a little Cubs/Cardinals rivalry.
Enjoy our interview with Casey Alexander
The Bruins and Beacons meet at 2:30 p.m. and the game can be heard on St. Louis radio on The Big 550 KTRS. Join Kevin Lehman and me for the game.

I guess we'll be seeing this in a @RacersHoops uniform this year. Glad AJ is staying in the @ValleyHoops.
Suddenly the Cardinals are the best team in baseball! 3 of last 4!
This is outstanding. Congrats to my friends @CoachBlossom & @DrewHanlen and the others I don't even know.
.@ValleyHoops women's basketball tournament will begin to rotate to different cities. Evansville next year, then Coralville, Iowa and then back to Moline.
