City ofLove Basketball: 2016-17 Colonial Athletic Association Preview - 70shawk - 11-10-2016 06:20 AM
http://www.cityofbasketballlove.com/news_article/show/719976?referrer_id=1566508
1. UNC Wilmington Seahawks (25-8, 14-4)
Head Coach: Kevin Keatts, 3rd season (43-22, .622)
Key Losses: Craig Ponder (11.4 ppg, 3.1 rpg), C.J. Gettys (5.3 ppg, 5.1 rpg)
Key Returners: Chris Flemmings (R-Sr./G), Denzel Ingram (R-Sr./G), C.J. Bryce (Soph./G), Jordon Talley (Jr./G)
Outlook: Keatts didn’t need much time to turn around Wilmington, taking what had been a nine-win team the year before he arrived, doubling that total in his first season and then leading the Seahawks to equal their best win total since joining Division I in 1976-77, making the NCAA Tournament for their first time in a decade with an 80-73 win over Hofstra in the 2016 CAA championship game. And with four of their top five players returning -- including Flemmings, a 6-5 guard who began his career at the Division II level but had no trouble with the move to D-I, averaging 16.2 ppg and 5.8 rpg -- the Seahawks are the overwhelming favorites to repeat. Ingram (12.7 ppg), Bryce (10.1 ppg) and Talley (8.5 ppg) will provide additional scoring punch; games against East Carolina and Clemson just before conference play starts in late December will show us just how good these birds are.
