ABOUT JACK "POPS" DUNCAN

Jack "Pops" Duncan cheered for every Trevecca team, but women's basketball held a special place in his heart. The team made him an honorary coach. Duncan was a regular at practices and games, shared lunches with coaches and traveled with the Trojans until his health made road trips difficult.

Duncan moved to Nashville in 2001 with his wife, Velva, and their family. Trevecca supporter Wendell Poole introduced him to athletic director Alan Smith and women's basketball coach Julie van Beek. Poole and Duncan traveled together to cheer for the Trojans. Duncan's grandsons, Brad and Bryan, both graduated from Trevecca.

Softball and volleyball also named Duncan an honorary coach. The Trevecca Athletic Hall of Fame inducted him for meritorious service in 2016. "He is an inspiration to our players and to me personally," women's basketball coach Gary Van Atta said in the Hall of Fame announcement. Volleyball coach Jayme Crowley credited Duncan's faith, optimism and loyalty. "Pops is a Difference Maker!" she said.

Duncan died Oct. 7, 2017. The Classic honors the fan who showed up for the Trojans long before tipoff.
