University of North Georgia Athletics

Augustus Brown was a standout for the North Georgia College & State University Saints in the late 90s. The 6-foot-4 forward was a captain on the team and led the program with his play on the court and his leadership off it.
 
Brown compiled over 1,500 career points in his tenure at NGCSU. He was a member of the 1996 squad that won the GACC Regular-season and Tournament titles before making an appearance in the NAIA National Tournament, North Georgia's final appearance in the postseason before moving to NCAA Division II.
 
In Brown's final two seasons in 1998 and 1999, he ranked in the top-three in the Georgia Alabama Carolina Conference in field goal percentage and rebounding. Brown led the Saints in scoring, rebounding and field goal shooting in his senior season in 1999, earning team MVP and GACC All-Conference honors. During that season, he scored in double figures in all 35 games. 
 After graduation, Brown continued his basketball career professionally in the Philippines, competing in one of Asia's most competitive leagues. He played a key role for the Manila Metrostars, helping lead the team to a national championship in 1999. That season, the Metrostars recorded a historic 22-game winning streak—the longest in any sport in Philippine history. Brown's professional career overseas showcased the same drive, versatility, and high basketball IQ that defined his college years.
 
Off the court, Brown was a respected member of the North Georgia community. He spent two years as a member of NGCSU's Corps of Cadets and earned a bachelor's degree in Marketing.
