Last year's record: 4-27 (Independent)

Key returning players: Michael Glasker, 5-7, Jr., G, 2.8 ppg, 80 total assists; Vincent Davis, 6-2, Jr., G, 11.2 ppg.

Best-case scenario: The young players mesh early, push the pace like new head coach LeVelle Moton prefers and at least triple their wins on the road (one) since joining Division I.

Worst-case scenario: The travel burdens of repeatedly playing on the road get to them again, and they only manage to match last year's total number of victories - four.

Player to watch: C.J. Wilkerson, a 6-3 junior guard, was named team MVP at Clinton Junior College last season, averaging 14 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game.
