Starting off as a sports writer in southern Illinois, Al Barnes came to SIUE as the institution's first sports information director. Barnes watched the men's soccer team win an NCAA Division II championship in 1972 and an NCAA Division I title in 1979, with the latter team making sure Al would receive a championship ring for his off-the-field efforts.
