The Coaching Legacy of Brian Katz

[Captain Canada]

Fresno State looks like a team that may be able to catch you slipping if their number one guy wasn't banged up

[GM Rizzo]

Iverson is playing like a man possessed! Great work and look forward to seeing how this legacy plays out!

big bounce back game. iversen held up well against lopez though, and luckily was able to force his way to the line

if/whenever he starts finishing more consistently around the basket, he'll be unstoppable. a big part of the offense right now is forcing his way to the line getting the other team in foul trouble

Fresno State looks like a team that may be able to catch you slipping if their number one guy wasn't banged up

Hopefully we can get a good W for our resume for our eventual seeding in march :brontroll:

Players to Watch

C Louie Meyers (Sr.), 6'9" 252lbs | 12.2 ppg, 6.6 rpg Season Stats
Despite being undersized, Louie Meyers has fought hard down low thus far this season for the defending Big Sky Champions. While Weber State is off to a slow start, Meyers has found a way to provide a consistent and reliable scoring with his consistent finishing and formidable mid-range touch. Meyer's athleticism and ability to get to the foul line could mean trouble.

SG Marin Fullove (Fr.), 6'6" 184lbs | 7.2 ppg, 1.1 spg Season Stats
Marin Fullove is the only starter that was not a member of last year's Big Sky Championship team. The three-star prospect from Arizona will be a name to watch for in the Big Sky for seasons to come. His current pure scoring ability, at times appears to already be the best on the Weber State roster. If he's able to find more confidence and consistency, Weber State could easily bounce back and contend for a run at back-to-back conference championships
