Hall of Fame
To this day Ivory remains one of the top student-athletes in the storied history of Mississippi Valley State Athletics. As a freshmen (1983-84) he helped lead MVSU to an overall winning season at 15-13 where he averaged 11.4 points per game along with 5.1 assists.
That same season he was tabbed SWAC Freshman of the Year. In 1984-85 he led MVSU to an 18-11 record. In 1985-86 he etched his name among the list of all-time MVSU greats as he helped guide Mississippi Valley State to a SWAC Tournament Championship and a berth in the NCAA Tournament.
That season MVSU would go on to face Duke in the first round on the NCAA Tournament nearly pulling off an upset with an 85-78 loss.
As a coach he led Arkansas-Pine Bluff to a SWAC Tournament Championship in 2010. The Golden Lions would go on to defeat Winthrop in Dayton, Ohio before falling to eventual tournament champion Duke in the next round of competition.
