McMurry upsets Division I Texas-Arlington
McMurry overcame an 18-point deficit in the second half to upset Division I Texas-Arlington 80-76 on Tuesday at Texas Hall. It was the Indians' first win against a Division I program since 1979, avenging a 96-77 loss to the Mavericks last year.

Texas-Arlington led 51-33 with 16:58 remaining in the game, before McMurry went on a 17-2 run to cut UTA's lead to 56-53 with just under 12 minutes to play. But the Mavericks pushed the lead back out to nine at the 5:12 mark before the Indians went on another run led by a trio of 3-pointers by Matadi Kikunga, Rusty Reedy and Sam Thomas to tie the game 72-72 with 2:55 left.

Alex Denson drained a pair of free throws to give McMurry its first lead of the game, but UTA answered with a pair from Jermaine Johnson. Denson then scored on a breakaway layup and Dustin Martin added an offensive tip-in to give the Indians a 78-74 lead with less than a minute to play and held on for the 80-76 win.

McMurry shot 59% in the second half and held UTA to 34% from the floor for the game.

Ursinus' Barrett sets Centennial scoring mark
Ursinus sophomore Richard Barrett set a Centennial Conference record with 43 points in the Bears' 70-65 win against Widener on Nov. 24 in Collegeville.

Barrett connected on 13 of 25 shots from the floor, including a Conference-record 8-for-16 from three-point range, while also making 9 of 13 free throws. He also had a game-high eight rebounds, blocked three shots and handed out two assists.

Barrett is just the third Centennial player to hit the 40-point plateau, joining Franklin and Marshall's Jerome Maiatico (42 vs. RPI, Jan. 9, 1998) and Muhlenberg's Mike Gramer (40 vs. Ursinus, Jan. 28, 1995).

Merchant Marines picked to win Skyline
The Kings Point men's basketball team was chosen to win the Skyline Conference in the 1998-99 preseason coaches poll. The Mariners received six of the seven first-place votes from the Conference's head coaches.

Picked to finish second were the SUNY-Maritime Privateers, while the Mount St. Vincent Dolphins were chosen to finish third.

The coaches also voted on the preseason favorite to win the player of the year award and the Preseason First-Team and Second-Team All-Conference. The Mariners' senior captain Sean Bradley was picked as the probable 1998-99 Player of the Year. During the 1997-98 season, Bradley averaged 20.5 points and 8.4 rebounds per game to lead the team. He garnered numerous postseason accolades including his second consecutive Skyline Conference Player of the Year Award and the Division III Metropolitan Player of the Year Award. Kings Point also led the way in the All-Conference selections with three representatives. SUNY Maritime and Mount St. Vincent each had two players named to the All-Conference Preseason Teams.

Wittenberg and Wooster tabbed for NCAC repeat
Wittenberg's women and Wooster's men were tabbed as the favorites in voting by coaches and media at the NCAC media day. Wittenberg received 15 of 21 first-place votes from the media and eight of nine from the coaches to outdistance Denison.

"It's always an honor to receive this type of preseason recognition," says 13th-year Wittenberg coach Pam Evans-Smith. "What really matters, though, is being there to receive the championship trophy at the end of the season."

Wooster earned 26 first-place votes in the men's balloting, 18 of 21 from the media and eight of nine from the coaches. Wittenberg was second in both polls. "We enter every season with the intention of winning a conference championship," says 12th-year Wooster coach Steve Moore. "This year is no different. I think our team will welcome the additional challenge of being the preseason favorite."

SCAC coaches honor Trinity, DePauw
Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference coaches picked Trinity's men's team to repeat as conference champs, and conference newcomer DePauw on the women's side.

Even though it has not played a single SCAC game, DePauw apparently will take no one by surprise as the Tigers received five of the ten coaches' first-place votes. Southwestern, the defending conference champion and the coaches' second choice, received three first-place votes. Hendrix and Trinity each received one first-place vote.

On the men's side, Trinity was tabbed the overwhelming favorite to capture their second consecutive conference crown as the Tigers received nine of the ten coaches' first-place votes. Rose-Hulman, another newcomer, received the other first-place vote.
