The 1957–58 Tennessee A&I State Tigers basketball team represented Tennessee A&I State College (now called Tennessee State University) in National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) men's basketball during the 1957–58 season. Coached by fourth-year head coach John McLendon, the Tigers finished the season with a 31–3 record and were crowned NAIA national champions by winning the 1958 NAIA tournament.[1] This marked the second of three consecutive national championships, a feat that no other team at any level of college basketball had previously accomplished.[2] In 2019, all three national championship teams were inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.[2][3]
