After going 19-14 and earning a National Invitational Tournament bid last season, the Hoyas boast a returning load of four starters, including sophomore’s James Akinjo, Mac McClung and Josh LeBlanc. Akinjo was selected Preseason All-Big East second team, while transfer senior center Omer Yurtseven made the Preseason All-Big East honorable mention squad.
MSM, a very young team containing no seniors, outfits sophomore guard Vado Morse, last season’s Northeast Conference Rookie of the year. Second year point man Damian Chung-Qui runs the show, while classmate Malik Jefferson, a forward, mans the paint. Last campaign they went 9-22.
