MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. A forum on the accomplishments and struggles of black veterans is scheduled for the USS Yorktown as part of Black History Month.  The event is set for Friday aboard the World War II-era aircraft carrier at the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum on Charleston Harbor.  Also speaking is Marcus Cox, the founding director of the African American studies program at The Citadel.

Davidson basketball coach Bob McKillop was the picture of buttoned-up cool for most of the Wildcats' 77-66 win over The Citadel on Thursday night, keeping his suit coat on and tie knotted perfectly.  And why not?  His Wildcats, alone atop the Southern Conference, built a 22-point lead in the first half and led comfortably by 18 with just seven minutes left in the game.
