Head coach profile:
Tim Craft enters his fifth season with the Gardner-Webb program. After four seasons of winning records with the Big South program, the Bulldogs faltered last year, resulting in his first losing season. The former ECU and Auburn assistant overall has an 88-78 record with Gardner-Webb and has one postseason appearance. A CBI bid in the 2015 season. Craft and his Bulldogs look to bounce back in a big way this season.
