COACH YOUNG ANNOUCNES STARTING 5

With just 10 players on the roster, Coach Young split the squad into 2 teams for the Hornets Nest Midnight Showcase. Gold and Green

Gold
PG-5'10 SR Sultan Toles-Bey
SG-6'3 JR A. Proctor
SF-6'3 SO J. Groom
PF-6'9 JR J. McCarver
C-6'8 JR A. N'Diaye


Green
PG-6'3 FR J. Carbajal
SG-6'3 FR K. Groom
SF-6'5 JR W. Jackson
PF-6'6 JR Z. Nelson
C-6'7 JR M. Owayed

Coach Young Comments from the game.

"Well the Gold dominated which we assumed they would. They are the projected starters, they have the most expierence and they had the height advantage down low. Owayed showed he will be a focal point of the bench filling in at the 3,4, and 5 spot and Nelson showed he can also played multiple spots and will battle Dickson for the starting SF spot. Our lack of 3pt shooting will force us to move the ball down the court quickly and look for easy transition baskets for McCarver and N'Diaye."

Thanks. 1st time ever trying to play with Sacremento State. Normally I mess with the rosters until I get EWU on the closed list, but didnt' feel like taking the time. I also use to run with Northern Colorado alot with the old rosters from 08.

Being a westcoast guy I like using teams from the Big Sky/Big West/WAC/MWC/WCC and Pac-10.

My hopes with this legacy is to move on to a WCC school and give Gonzaga and SMC a run for their money. however should the ability to take over BSU come available I would jump at the chance to go dominate the WAC. I would then like to take over a Pac-10 school like Cal, OSU,ASU or my dream job WSU.
