We should win this one easily. UNC Asheville lost their two leading scorers from last year in Dickey and JP Primm.

Yeah. Stats are a little iffy right now but should be cool to look at when teams gets some games under them. Either way, we should win big. UNCA will pound the ball inside a lot so it at least gets Stokes feet wet early.

Fun fact: Keith Hornsby (projected starting guard) is the son of Bruce Hornsby the musician. My mom was this kid's music teacher in elementary school.

That's probably the most useless fact you'll hear today.

Really? That's pretty cool. I like reading that kind of stuff even if it's useless to the game.

I'd like to see one of these threads for every team especially the non-conference teams who we don't know much about. Thanks for starting it.
