ing his initial season, Walcavich led his Bobcats to champi
onships in the Lock Haven tournament and also in the annual
Walker Brothers' tourney here in Edinboro. Wesleyan downed
the Fighting Scots 103-90 in the championship game. His squad
then edged the Plaid 90-84 in a non-conference tilt later in the
Buffalo Bills annual scrimmage, which has been a yearly mid
summer highlight.
The personable athletic director also introduced Edin
boro's Hall of Fame program which has evolved into an annual
year-ending event to honor present and past athletes.
year.
This past season, Walcavich led the Bobcats to 22 wins
against just nine losses with a squad of all underclassmen.
Overall, his seven-year head coaching mark is 154-63.
His winning percentage of .710 ranks in the top 15 among active
NAIA men's basketball coaches.
McDonald has been at Edinboro since 1962 and for 12
years served as the Fighting Scot basketball coach (1962-1975)
and never experienced a losing season while his teams compiled
an impressive 181 wins against only 89 losses. During that span,
his cagers won four Western Division Pennsylvania Conference
crowns, the PC state championship and two District 18 titles that
netted trips to the NAIA National Tournament His teams set 27
University records and made 19 post-season appearances while
four of his players were named All-Americans.
A chronological look at the coaching career of Wal
cavich;
Prior to accepting his position at Edinboro, McDonald
served as assistant basketball coach in Erie, Pa. He is a 1956
graduate of Bridgeport High School in his home town of
Bridgeport, West Virginia.
In 1960 he received a degree in chemistry and physical
education from West Virginia Wesleyan College and he also
holds a master's degree in health from the University of Buffalo.
Athletic Director James McDonald
Edinboro University's athletic program was placed
under the talented and aggressive leadership of Jim McDonald
in July of 1981. Increased emphasis on fund raising to provide a
sound scholarship foundation has become his top priority while
numerous changes and innovations have also keyed the Scots'
athletic program under his direction.
As an undergraduate, he set nine school records at Wes
leyan and was twice voted both AP and UPI basketball AllAmerican. In 1960, he was the second leading scorer in the
United States, averaging slightly over 33 points a game, and led
his team to the national basketball tournament in Kansas City,
Missouri. He was named to the NAIA's All-Tournament Team in
1959 and 1960.
Through his efforts more than 3 million dollars has
been raised during the past seven years. The funds generated by
the energetic athletic director's efforts will be used to assist
Edinboro's men and women athletes who compete in the Scots
fifteen intercollegiate sports.
In 1966, McDonald was selected Area Eight Coach of
the Year by the eastern seaboard coaches and that same year was
honored as one of the top ten finalists' in the Coach of the Year
national poll. McDonald's honors also include selection to the
West Virginia All-Time College Basketball Team and member
ship in the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He served four
years on the NAIA's All-American selection committee and was
chosen by the NAIA to coach an All-American team of NBAbound cagers who won the Gold Medal in Israel's Hapoel
Games.
"EUP has outstanding coaches and
facilities. With these ingredients, there is
no reason we could not be competitive in
the PSAC and Division II."
In addition to his classroom and basketball coaching
duties, McDonald was Edinboro's golf coach for 17 years. His
teams won over 40 tournaments and finished as high as third
place at the NCAA Division II National Tournament.
In addition to maintaining Edinboro's respected win
ning tradition in intercollegiate athletics, the former health and
physical education professor has vastly expanded the Universi
ty's summer activities.
As a resident of Edinboro, McDonald has a record of
extensive community involvement. He was Little League Base
ball director for four years and also held a four-year post as a
member of the General McLane School Board. He and his wife,
Mary Lou, have three sons - Mark, Mike and Matthew.

head coach for the past two years. A graduate of Bladensburg
High School in Maryland, he received a journalism degree from
Rutgers University in 1973.
Walcavich began his coaching career as an assistant at
Birmingham Southern in Alabama, where he stayed for four sea
sons. In 1977, he obtained his first head coaching position at
Alexander City (Alabama) Junior College. After one year, Wal
cavich returned to Birmingham Southern as the school's head
coach.
During his five years at BSC, an NAIA affiliate, Wal
cavich posted an impressive 114-44 record. His teams were
ranked in the top 20 four times in five seasons, as high as num
ber two in 1979 and twice appeared in the NAIA national tour
nament in Kansas City, Missouri.
For his efforts at Birmingham Southern, Walcavich was
named District "Coach of the Year" three times. His success was
recognized nationally in 1981 as he was selected as an assistant
coach for the United States Olympic Festival in Syracuse, New
York.
In 1983, he moved on to the Division I ranks, as an
assistant coach at Rice University. There, he was a part of some
of the biggest wins in Rice basketball history including victories
over Arkansas, Notre Dame, and Houston. After staying at Rice

centage ranks as the fifth highest in Edinboro basketball history.
Washington, who came to the Scots out of the military
academy at the holiday break last year, also returns to solidify
the starting lineup. Considered one of the team's top defensive
players, Washington proved to be a key factor in the team's push
for the conference playoffs last season. He finished the year with
101 points and added 85 rebounds to rank third on the squad.
Washington also finished third on the squad in blocked shots
(14) and added 20 assists and 17 steals in just 17 games.
Also returning with plenty of game experience will be
senicff Jimmy Johnson and sophomores Shawn Mehok and John
Preston.
Johnson, one of the PSAC's best long jumpers in track,
may be the squad's best all-around athlete. In all, Johnson played
in 19 games for the Scots last season and will likely see more
action in Walcavich's up-tempo style. Improving his outside
shooting, Johnson connected on 48% of his shots from the floor
a year ago. In 250 minutes of play, Johnson added 16 assists and
7 steals and proved to be one of the squad’s best defensive play
ers.
Mehok, from nearby Girard High School, also returns
to the squad and should be a solid contributor. As a freshman,
Mehok scored 83 points (3.9 ppg) and added 30 assists to his
credit to rank fourth on the squad in that department. He was
second on the team with 13 three-point goals and played just
277 minutes in 21 games for the Plaid. A versatile player,
Mehok can play both point and shooting guard spots for the
Scots.
Preston, a 6-7 forward, could be the Scots' "hidden tal
ent" on the inside this season. Playing in just 13 games last year,
he showed great potential in the Scots' final four wins in 88-89.
In all, Preston grabbed 29 rebounds and blocked 6 shots in only
102 minutes of action last year. Considered one of the most
improved players on the team, Preston will give the Scots added
depth on the inside.
Also expected to help the Scots this season will be a
group of newcomers led by junior college transfer John Mohre.
Also looking to dot the Scots’ roster this winter will be Lasana
Crider, Wesley Murdock, Tyrone Matthews and Damon Woods.
Mohre, a transfer from Lansing Community College in
Michigan, could be the shooting guard the Plaid is looking for in
89-90. At 6-8, Mohre is likely to play on the perimeter due to his
quality shooting touch. He carries plenty of numbers with him to
the Boro, dating back to his days at DeWitt High School, Alma
College, and at LCC in Michigan. He scored 16 ppg and aver
aged 8 rebounds an outing in high school and netted 11 ppg his
first year of college at Alma.
Crider, a 6-6 freshman, brings plenty of accolades to
the Boro. He helped lead Chanel High School (Ohio) to a 20-5
slate a year ago and the conference title. He was tabbed secondteam All-State for his 19 points and 12 rebound average as a
senior.
Murdock, a freshman guard, comes to the squad from
North Side High School in Ft Wayne, Indiana, the same area
which produced Scot assistant coach Tim Smiley. Murdock
The Edinboro University Fighting Scot basketball team
will have a new look during the 1989-90 season as the Plaid
begins a new decade under the direction of first-year head coach
Greg Walcavich. The newly appointed mentor makes no promis
es about the upcoming season but one - hard work.
"I will give no timetable when it comes to winning
championships here at Edinboro but I can assure one thing, this
squad is going to work hard for everything," Walcavich com
mented.
"Ultimately, we will be successful. How long it takes us
to get back into the conference playoffs and win I cannot say.
We are all very anxious to get started. When October 15 rolls
around, we will be well prepared to start practice. Our goal is
not to win all 26 games in a row but it is a goal to win one game
- 26 times, that is how we are going to look at it. We will respect
every team we play, no matter who it is, but we will fear no
one," continued Walcavich.
"Realistically, we want to start with the PSAC champi
onship. But in order to get there, we have plenty of work to do.
We want to get back to being a winning team with a winning
attitude first," he continued. "I respect all of the programs in the
PSAC and I consider it a very good conference in all sports. To
be a top success, a team must learn how to win on the road in
this conference and then take care of business (wins) at home."
Walcavich and his assistants Tim Smiley and Tim
Brueggeman should have plenty of help in their quest to get the
Scots back to the state playoffs with Ae return of four starters
and four top reserves from last year's 14-12 squad.
Leading the list of returnees will be senior Billy Wade
and sophomore Aaron Brown.
Wade, an All-PSAC West unanimous choice and AllEast Region second teamer, returns for what should be a banner
senior season. The 6-7 forward led the Scots in scoring (16.9
points per game), rebounding (10.5 rebounds per game), blocked
shots (42), field goal percentage (59%) and minutes played
(792) last season and will anchor the interior play for the Plaid.
In 73 games with the Scots, Wade has scored 889 points to rank
16th all-time and has grabbed a total of 549 rebounds to place
13th in the Edinboro record books. He has connected on over
57% of his shots from the floor throughout his career and has
blocked a total of 63 shots.
Joining Wade across the front will be the return of
sophomore Aaron Brown, the PSAC West "Rookie of the Year"
in 88-89. Last season, the 6-6 forward scored 13.8 ppg to rank
second on the club and grabbed 6.7 rpg to also rank behind
Wade. He connected on 48% of his shots from the floor and 73%
from the charity stripe. Brown’s 18 blocked shots and 731 min
utes played was also second best on the squad.
Also returning to the starting five will be guard Adrian
Batts and forward/guard Sterling Washington.
Batts, who started 23 games at the point guard spot,
returns to run the offense for the Scots. The scrappy guard
seemed to play his best in the big games and led the Plaid in
assists with 118. He finished fourth on the squad with 196 points
(7.5 ppg) and led the team with 42 steals last season. Batts also
led the team in free throw percentage hitting on 84% of his free
8
very competitive. "The conference not only has quality players
but quality coaches as well. As a coaching staff, you must be
prepared every night. Each opponent creates a different chal
lenge every time out on the floor. As a team and staff, we must
prepare ourselves for any team that comes along. Like I stated
earlier, respect without fear of our opposition is very important,"
added the first-year coach.
Walcavich is well aware of the challenge ahead of him.
"I love the challenge of coaching at this level. It is the craft part
of coaching which I enjoy. Your team must understand one
another at both ends of the floor. As the coach, I must make our
team compatable. They have to play hard and together at both
ends of the court."
"My chore is to mesh this talent into a winner. Expecta
tions? Well let me say I do not think we are going to be disap
pointed at the end of the year. We will make progress with all
intentions of being very competitive in a bid for the playoffs,"
Walcavich concluded.
averaged 18 points, 8 assists and 4 steals in high school. A quali
ty athlete, he also holds the North Side High School long jump
mark with a leap of 23'9".
Matthews, a 6-1 guard, is from H.L. Bourgeois High
School in Louisiana, the same high school that produced team
mate Sterling Washington. He also comes to the Scots out of the
military and will add depth to the point guard spot.
Woods, another freshman guard, comes from Kenmore
East High in New York where he excelled in basketball and
football. He netted 17 ppg and also dished out 7 assists per
game, leading his high school squad to a 15-6 slate his senior
year.
Overall, the guard position appears to be the most
important to the head coach. "I truly believe that you win col
lege games on the Division II level with guard-play. We must
show quality depth at this position. They have to be your leaders
at both ends of the floor and run the show. They must keep
everything in order," Walcavich continued.
Concerning the Scots’ schedule, the coach feels it is

ing his initial season, Walcavich led his Bobcats to champi
onships in the Lock Haven tournament and also in the annual
Walker Brothers' tourney here in Edinboro. Wesleyan downed
the Fighting Scots 103-90 in the championship game. His squad
then edged the Plaid 90-84 in a non-conference tilt later in the
Buffalo Bills annual scrimmage, which has been a yearly mid
summer highlight.
The personable athletic director also introduced Edin
boro's Hall of Fame program which has evolved into an annual
year-ending event to honor present and past athletes.
year.
This past season, Walcavich led the Bobcats to 22 wins
against just nine losses with a squad of all underclassmen.
Overall, his seven-year head coaching mark is 154-63.
His winning percentage of .710 ranks in the top 15 among active
NAIA men's basketball coaches.
McDonald has been at Edinboro since 1962 and for 12
years served as the Fighting Scot basketball coach (1962-1975)
and never experienced a losing season while his teams compiled
an impressive 181 wins against only 89 losses. During that span,
his cagers won four Western Division Pennsylvania Conference
crowns, the PC state championship and two District 18 titles that
netted trips to the NAIA National Tournament His teams set 27
University records and made 19 post-season appearances while
four of his players were named All-Americans.
A chronological look at the coaching career of Wal
cavich;
Prior to accepting his position at Edinboro, McDonald
served as assistant basketball coach in Erie, Pa. He is a 1956
graduate of Bridgeport High School in his home town of
Bridgeport, West Virginia.
In 1960 he received a degree in chemistry and physical
education from West Virginia Wesleyan College and he also
holds a master's degree in health from the University of Buffalo.
Athletic Director James McDonald
Edinboro University's athletic program was placed
under the talented and aggressive leadership of Jim McDonald
in July of 1981. Increased emphasis on fund raising to provide a
sound scholarship foundation has become his top priority while
numerous changes and innovations have also keyed the Scots'
athletic program under his direction.
As an undergraduate, he set nine school records at Wes
leyan and was twice voted both AP and UPI basketball AllAmerican. In 1960, he was the second leading scorer in the
United States, averaging slightly over 33 points a game, and led
his team to the national basketball tournament in Kansas City,
Missouri. He was named to the NAIA's All-Tournament Team in
1959 and 1960.
Through his efforts more than 3 million dollars has
been raised during the past seven years. The funds generated by
the energetic athletic director's efforts will be used to assist
Edinboro's men and women athletes who compete in the Scots
fifteen intercollegiate sports.
In 1966, McDonald was selected Area Eight Coach of
the Year by the eastern seaboard coaches and that same year was
honored as one of the top ten finalists' in the Coach of the Year
national poll. McDonald's honors also include selection to the
West Virginia All-Time College Basketball Team and member
ship in the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He served four
years on the NAIA's All-American selection committee and was
chosen by the NAIA to coach an All-American team of NBAbound cagers who won the Gold Medal in Israel's Hapoel
Games.
"EUP has outstanding coaches and
facilities. With these ingredients, there is
no reason we could not be competitive in
the PSAC and Division II."
In addition to his classroom and basketball coaching
duties, McDonald was Edinboro's golf coach for 17 years. His
teams won over 40 tournaments and finished as high as third
place at the NCAA Division II National Tournament.
In addition to maintaining Edinboro's respected win
ning tradition in intercollegiate athletics, the former health and
physical education professor has vastly expanded the Universi
ty's summer activities.
As a resident of Edinboro, McDonald has a record of
extensive community involvement. He was Little League Base
ball director for four years and also held a four-year post as a
member of the General McLane School Board. He and his wife,
Mary Lou, have three sons - Mark, Mike and Matthew.

Greg Walcavich
On April 10, 1989, Gregory L. Walcavich became
Edinboro University's tenth men's head basketball coach.
Walcavich, 38 years old, came from West Virginia Wes
leyan College in Buchannon, West Virginia, where he was the
head coach for the past two years. A graduate of Bladensburg
High School in Maryland, he received a journalism degree from
Rutgers University in 1973.
Walcavich began his coaching career as an assistant at
Birmingham Southern in Alabama, where he stayed for four sea
sons. In 1977, he obtained his first head coaching position at
Alexander City (Alabama) Junior College. After one year, Wal
cavich returned to Birmingham Southern as the school's head
coach.
During his five years at BSC, an NAIA affiliate, Wal
cavich posted an impressive 114-44 record. His teams were
ranked in the top 20 four times in five seasons, as high as num
ber two in 1979 and twice appeared in the NAIA national tour
nament in Kansas City, Missouri.
For his efforts at Birmingham Southern, Walcavich was
named District "Coach of the Year" three times. His success was
recognized nationally in 1981 as he was selected as an assistant
coach for the United States Olympic Festival in Syracuse, New
York.
In 1983, he moved on to the Division I ranks, as an
assistant coach at Rice University. There, he was a part of some
of the biggest wins in Rice basketball history including victories
over Arkansas, Notre Dame, and Houston. After staying at Rice
for four years, Walcavich joined the Bobcats of West Virginia
Wesleyan in 1987.
Taking over a squad which returned only four players
and a schedule that showed just 11 games, he quickly turned the

ATHLETIC STAFF
Dr. Kathleen Lipkovich
Tim Smiley
Tim Brueggeman
Tim Smiley, a former Fighting Scot All-American
eager, enters his sixth season as Edinboro's assistant basketball
coach. The Fort Wayne, Indiana, native has accepted the respon
sibility of recruiting coordinator.
As recruiting coordinator, Smiley is responsible for
recruiting athletes who will succeed in the environment here at
the Boro, both academically and athletically. He is also in charge
of defense and the team’s overall defensive philosophy.
Smiley finished as the top scoring guard in Edinboro's
history as a player and led the Scots to their best record ever
when they posted a 24-5 slate in 1975-76 and a berth in the
NAIA National Tournament in Kansas City, Missouri.
Currently, Smiley ranks second on the all-time scoring
list (1,574 points) and single season scoring (508).
The 1978 Boro grad also paced the Fighting Scots to a
NAIA tourney appearance in 1974-75, when the Plaid posted a
22-5 slate. For his efforts, Smiley was named NAIA All-Ameri
can twice and selected to the Pennsylvania Conference first
team, along with being tabbed to the Pittsburgh Press and Erie
Morning News "Big Five" first team.
Prior to his return to Edinboro, Smiley taught fourth
and fifth grade in Fort Wayne, from 1979-83. During this time,
he was head coach of the ninth grade squad and also served as
assistant track and field coach from 1981-83.
Smiley returned to Edinboro in 1983-84, initially serv
ing as a graduate assistant coach and then receiving full-time
status as assistant in 1984-85. Recently, Smiley earned his mas
ter's degree in elementary administration. Last April, he was
inducted in Edinboro University’s Athletic Hall of Fame for his
past accomplishments on the basketball court.
He and his wife Nadine, a former EUP student, and
their daughter Asia (8), reside in the Edinboro area.
Assistant coach Tim Brueggeman begins his first sea
son with the Fighting Scot basketball squad. He will aid the bas
ketball program in the areas of practice and game management,
scouting, and recruiting.
Brueggeman's basketball background includes his AllConference playing days at Geneva High School in Ohio, where
he was a three-time starter and letterwinner. His senior season,
he was named the team's most valuable player. He was recruited
by numerous Division I colleges in the Ohio area but decided to
pursue another sports love instead - tennis.
Brueggeman first attended Lakeland Community Col
lege, Ohio, where he achieved a top-ten ranking in singles com
petition on the junior college level. Upon graduation from
Lakeland in '85, he went on to attend Louisville University
where he captained the Cardinal tennis squad and was nationally
ranked in flight two doubles competition.
He is also the men's and women's head tennis coach at
Edinboro and recently completed his fall season with each
squad. His women's team finished the year fifth in the PS AC
with a 9-5 dual meet slate. The men's team, playing the majority
of their slate in the upcoming spring, finished 2-4.
Brueggeman is currently a professional member of the
United States Tennis Association. He resides in the Edinboro
area with his wife, Tracy.

BORO GAGERS UNDER NEW LEADERSHIP
tosses and also added 11 three-point goals. His free throw per
centage ranks as the fifth highest in Edinboro basketball history.
Washington, who came to the Scots out of the military
academy at the holiday break last year, also returns to solidify
the starting lineup. Considered one of the team's top defensive
players, Washington proved to be a key factor in the team's push
for the conference playoffs last season. He finished the year with
101 points and added 85 rebounds to rank third on the squad.
Washington also finished third on the squad in blocked shots
(14) and added 20 assists and 17 steals in just 17 games.
Also returning with plenty of game experience will be
senicff Jimmy Johnson and sophomores Shawn Mehok and John
Preston.
Johnson, one of the PSAC's best long jumpers in track,
may be the squad's best all-around athlete. In all, Johnson played
in 19 games for the Scots last season and will likely see more
action in Walcavich's up-tempo style. Improving his outside
shooting, Johnson connected on 48% of his shots from the floor
a year ago. In 250 minutes of play, Johnson added 16 assists and
7 steals and proved to be one of the squad’s best defensive play
ers.
Mehok, from nearby Girard High School, also returns
to the squad and should be a solid contributor. As a freshman,
Mehok scored 83 points (3.9 ppg) and added 30 assists to his
credit to rank fourth on the squad in that department. He was
second on the team with 13 three-point goals and played just
277 minutes in 21 games for the Plaid. A versatile player,
Mehok can play both point and shooting guard spots for the
Scots.
Preston, a 6-7 forward, could be the Scots' "hidden tal
ent" on the inside this season. Playing in just 13 games last year,
he showed great potential in the Scots' final four wins in 88-89.
In all, Preston grabbed 29 rebounds and blocked 6 shots in only
102 minutes of action last year. Considered one of the most
improved players on the team, Preston will give the Scots added
depth on the inside.
Also expected to help the Scots this season will be a
group of newcomers led by junior college transfer John Mohre.
Also looking to dot the Scots’ roster this winter will be Lasana
Crider, Wesley Murdock, Tyrone Matthews and Damon Woods.
Mohre, a transfer from Lansing Community College in
Michigan, could be the shooting guard the Plaid is looking for in
89-90. At 6-8, Mohre is likely to play on the perimeter due to his
quality shooting touch. He carries plenty of numbers with him to
the Boro, dating back to his days at DeWitt High School, Alma
College, and at LCC in Michigan. He scored 16 ppg and aver
aged 8 rebounds an outing in high school and netted 11 ppg his
first year of college at Alma.
Crider, a 6-6 freshman, brings plenty of accolades to
the Boro. He helped lead Chanel High School (Ohio) to a 20-5
slate a year ago and the conference title. He was tabbed secondteam All-State for his 19 points and 12 rebound average as a
senior.
Murdock, a freshman guard, comes to the squad from
North Side High School in Ft Wayne, Indiana, the same area
which produced Scot assistant coach Tim Smiley. Murdock
The Edinboro University Fighting Scot basketball team
will have a new look during the 1989-90 season as the Plaid
begins a new decade under the direction of first-year head coach
Greg Walcavich. The newly appointed mentor makes no promis
es about the upcoming season but one - hard work.
"I will give no timetable when it comes to winning
championships here at Edinboro but I can assure one thing, this
squad is going to work hard for everything," Walcavich com
mented.
"Ultimately, we will be successful. How long it takes us
to get back into the conference playoffs and win I cannot say.
We are all very anxious to get started. When October 15 rolls
around, we will be well prepared to start practice. Our goal is
not to win all 26 games in a row but it is a goal to win one game
- 26 times, that is how we are going to look at it. We will respect
every team we play, no matter who it is, but we will fear no
one," continued Walcavich.
"Realistically, we want to start with the PSAC champi
onship. But in order to get there, we have plenty of work to do.
We want to get back to being a winning team with a winning
attitude first," he continued. "I respect all of the programs in the
PSAC and I consider it a very good conference in all sports. To
be a top success, a team must learn how to win on the road in
this conference and then take care of business (wins) at home."
Walcavich and his assistants Tim Smiley and Tim
Brueggeman should have plenty of help in their quest to get the
Scots back to the state playoffs with Ae return of four starters
and four top reserves from last year's 14-12 squad.
Leading the list of returnees will be senior Billy Wade
and sophomore Aaron Brown.
Wade, an All-PSAC West unanimous choice and AllEast Region second teamer, returns for what should be a banner
senior season. The 6-7 forward led the Scots in scoring (16.9
points per game), rebounding (10.5 rebounds per game), blocked
shots (42), field goal percentage (59%) and minutes played
(792) last season and will anchor the interior play for the Plaid.
In 73 games with the Scots, Wade has scored 889 points to rank
16th all-time and has grabbed a total of 549 rebounds to place
13th in the Edinboro record books. He has connected on over
57% of his shots from the floor throughout his career and has
blocked a total of 63 shots.
Joining Wade across the front will be the return of
sophomore Aaron Brown, the PSAC West "Rookie of the Year"
in 88-89. Last season, the 6-6 forward scored 13.8 ppg to rank
second on the club and grabbed 6.7 rpg to also rank behind
Wade. He connected on 48% of his shots from the floor and 73%
from the charity stripe. Brown’s 18 blocked shots and 731 min
utes played was also second best on the squad.
Also returning to the starting five will be guard Adrian
Batts and forward/guard Sterling Washington.
Batts, who started 23 games at the point guard spot,
returns to run the offense for the Scots. The scrappy guard
seemed to play his best in the big games and led the Plaid in
assists with 118. He finished fourth on the squad with 196 points
(7.5 ppg) and led the team with 42 steals last season. Batts also
led the team in free throw percentage hitting on 84% of his free
8
very competitive. "The conference not only has quality players
but quality coaches as well. As a coaching staff, you must be
prepared every night. Each opponent creates a different chal
lenge every time out on the floor. As a team and staff, we must
prepare ourselves for any team that comes along. Like I stated
earlier, respect without fear of our opposition is very important,"
added the first-year coach.
Walcavich is well aware of the challenge ahead of him.
"I love the challenge of coaching at this level. It is the craft part
of coaching which I enjoy. Your team must understand one
another at both ends of the floor. As the coach, I must make our
team compatable. They have to play hard and together at both
ends of the court."
"My chore is to mesh this talent into a winner. Expecta
tions? Well let me say I do not think we are going to be disap
pointed at the end of the year. We will make progress with all
intentions of being very competitive in a bid for the playoffs,"
Walcavich concluded.
averaged 18 points, 8 assists and 4 steals in high school. A quali
ty athlete, he also holds the North Side High School long jump
mark with a leap of 23'9".
Matthews, a 6-1 guard, is from H.L. Bourgeois High
School in Louisiana, the same high school that produced team
mate Sterling Washington. He also comes to the Scots out of the
military and will add depth to the point guard spot.
Woods, another freshman guard, comes from Kenmore
East High in New York where he excelled in basketball and
football. He netted 17 ppg and also dished out 7 assists per
game, leading his high school squad to a 15-6 slate his senior
year.
Overall, the guard position appears to be the most
important to the head coach. "I truly believe that you win col
lege games on the Division II level with guard-play. We must
show quality depth at this position. They have to be your leaders
at both ends of the floor and run the show. They must keep
everything in order," Walcavich continued.
Concerning the Scots’ schedule, the coach feels it is
