THE GOOD NEWS
Youth. This is a young team that showed real signs of growth down the stretch and Tom Parrotta has almost his entire roster back next season. Frank Turner is as good a floor leader as there is in the conference and he has two years left.

THE BAD NEWS
A team has to learn HOW to win but there's no way you can know it is going to happen until it does. The Griffs didn't win a game on the road this year.

KEY RETURNEES
G Frank Turner is the leader of this team and led the Griffs in scoring at 12.9 points per game while placing fourth in the league in assists. F Tomas Vazquez-Simmons is a shot blocker to be reckoned with. F Greg Logins is already one of the league's better rebounders.

ROSTER REPORT

--G Frank Turner finished fourth in the MAAC in assists with 4.61 assists per game. He had 19 points, seven assists and seven rebounds in the final game of the season.

--F Tomas Vazquez-Simmons blocked 84 shots, the second-highest total in program history. He led the MAAC in blocks per game at 2.71.

--F Greg Logins scored 18 of his 20 points in the second half of the season finale.

--G Bob Bevilacqua went from walking on to scoring 14 and 15 points in the two MAAC tournaments, with nine 3-pointers in the two games.

--The Griffs dropped two games to Iona in the regular season before beating the Gaels in the first round of the MAAC tournament.

i know hes a good recruiter but face it hes probably the worst coach ever. i actually think a monkey could make a better offense then him. (ok guys lets all stand at the half court line and have our point guard try to take on their whole team) see my point

I just set up a new college baseball forum a couple of days ago and I'm trying to get the word spread out. Should be fun once the season gets going.
