Few seasons in the history of Belmont Basketballbegan with greater speculation and uncertainty than the 2009-10 campaign. The Bruins had just bid farewell to five seniorsinexorably linked to championships and NCAA Tournamentglory. Aside from a handful of venerable mainstays, the lion’sshare of the Bruin roster was unknown commodities.Furthermore, in a year characterized by great depth and expe-rience in the Atlantic Sun, could Belmont remain atop theleague?

But from the onset in victory against Portland State,Bruin fans - and the coaching staff for that matter - quicklyrealized that talented, capable hands were in the fold. 19 winsand a third Atlantic Sun Conference regular season title infive years later, Belmont Basketball appears poised to add toits growing list of accomplishments in 2010-11.

With senior leadership from Jon House and JordanCampbell, interior production from Mick Hedgepeth andScott Saunders, the continued developed of dynamic back-court duo Ian Clark and Kerron Johnson and a touch of con-tribution from new faces, the Bruins have all the ingredientsfor another successful season.

BACKCOURT

Jordan Campbell (6-5, 210, rSr.)Jonny Rice (6-0, 165, rJr.)Drew Hanlen (5-11, 180, Jr.)Adam Barnes (6-2, 190, rSo.)Ian Clark (6-3, 175, So.)Kerron Johnson (6-1, 175, So.)Reece Chamberlain (6-1, 175, Fr.)J.J. Mann (6-6, 210, Fr.)

Belmont’s returns its entire collection of backcourtplayers, all of whom have proven themselves in conferenceand on the national stage. Fifth year senior Jordan Campbellpromises to assume an even greater role and build upon analready distinguished collegiate career. Showing no ill effectsfrom an injury that brought his 2008-09 season to a prematureend, Campbell turned off-season diligence into on court pro-duction. Expanding his offensive game, Campbell ranked fifthin the Atlantic Sun in three-point field goal percentage.Always a respected, rangy defender, Campbell also ranked10th in the league in steals per game. But now as the old manon the block, look for Campbell to embrace a more vocal lead-ership role and an increased willingness to demand the basket-ball.

Another familiar face eager for a bounce back frominjury is Jonny Rice. The unassuming sharpshooter fromIllinois was snakebit by the injury bug again last season,slowed by a nagging foot injury. But when called upon byCoach Byrd, Rice provided capable minutes off the benchwith consistent effort and unselfish play. Now in his fourthyear in the program, Rice should get more opportunities toshowcase his talents.

A compelling argument could be

made that Belmont’s steadiest player a year ago was DrewHanlen. The hard-nosed and outgoing point guard from St.Louis led the conference and ranked among the NCAA lead-ers in assist-to-turnover ratio. Solid decision making, sounddefense and reliable late-game free throw shooting fromHanlen will be again be assets for the Bruins. Hanlen’s career-high scoring effort in the 2010 Atlantic Sun Tournament couldportend increased offense this season.

Redshirt sophomore Adam Barnes appeared in 15games last season and gives Coach Byrd quality depth.Barnes’ quickness and team-first mentality could yield him agreater role.

Few in all of college basketball made a greater impactas a freshman than Ian Clark. Recognized by Sporting Newsand CollegeInsider.com with postseason honors, Clark becamethe first freshman of the Bruins’ NCAA era to lead the teamin scoring. From late-game heroics to creative playmaking,Clark emerged as a trusted offensive force. Clark is the reign-ing Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year and a Second TeamAll-Conference performer. With increased strength and anever-expanding arsenal of shots and deliveries, Clark willagain be called upon to score in bunches. Case in point his 31-point, nine three-pointer performance against North Florida.

Like Clark, Kerron Johnson never backs down andoften plays his best in pressure situations. The 2009 AlabamaMr. Basketball met the challenge in replacing All-AmericanAlex Renfroe at the point guard position. But the similarlyspirited and dynamic left-hander gave Belmont fans plenty tocheer about. And as was the case with Renfroe, Johnson putsan enormous amount of pressure on the defense with his abili-ty to attack the lane and draw fouls. Always a bother to oppo-nents as an on-ball defender, Johnson now has full commandof the Coach Byrd system and should be on track for a hugeseason.

Reece Chamberlain joins the Bruin program as a non-scholarship player in 2010-11. A decorated mid state playerfrom nearby Beech HS, Chamberlain’s vision, shooting touchand feel for the game have drawn early comparisons to anoth-

er Bruin product from north Nashville, 2009 graduateAndy Wicke.

2010-11 season outlook

The Bruins are always seeking to add some perimetershooting to the mix in recruiting, and J.J. Mann fits the bill.A deadeye marksman from Georgia, Mann spent the past sea-son playing for nationally regarded Hargrave MilitaryAcademy. The experience in playing with a dozen teammateswho will play Division-I basketball gives Mann seasoning andconfidence. Mann will compete for playing time immediately.

FRONTCOURT

Jon House (6-6, 210, Sr.)Mick Hedgepeth (6-9, 235, Jr.)Scott Saunders (6-10, 250, Jr.)Brandon Baker (6-6, 220, rSo.)Trevor Noack (6-7, 240, So.)Blake Jenkins (6-7, 200, rFr.)Chad Lang (6-11, 270, Fr.)Holden Mobley (6-3, 200, Fr.)

The Bruin frontcourt bid farewell to forward KeatonBelcher and center Mike Dejworek. Belmont will need toreplace Belcher’s outside shooting and Dejworek’s defensiveeffort, but a strong conglomerate of candidates stand ready togive Belmont punch in the paint.

Atlantic Sun Conference coaches might think he hasbeen at Belmont for a decade, but senior Jon House returnsfor his final season in a Bruin uniform. A self-admittedgrinder, the gritty and heady House is the prototypical ‘glueguy.’ House’s worth is never adequately measured on the statsheet, as his hustle plays, tough defense and complete under-standing of the Bruin playbook are invaluable. The Canadianpromises to be a central figure in all the Bruins do.

If Mick Hedgepeth takes the same jump from sopho-more to junior as he did from freshman to sophomore, thenBelmont will have an unquestioned all-conference player. The6-9 forward from Alabama was one of the most improved bigmen at the mid-major level last season, bumping his scoringaverage from 3.5 to 11.6 points per game. Team leader inrebounding, blocked shots and free throw attempts,Hedgepeth ranked among the A-Sun leaders in six statisticalcategories a year ago. With continued development in hisfootwork and face-up game courtesy post guru Coach Ayers,Hedgepeth will literally be in the middle of all the action.

Joining forces with Hedgepeth on the block is ScottSaunders. The transfer from Rice University delivered eightdouble figure scoring games a year ago, including 18 points atnationally-ranked Washington en route to All-TournamentTeam honors. A fearless rebounder, workout warrior andthreat in transition, Saunders’ offensive role will continue toblossom as an upperclassman. And much of the foul troubleand turnovers that plagued Saunders in his first year offtransfer should be in the rear view mirror.

In the season ending banquet, Coach Byrd describedBrandon Baker as a wildcard. While shooting and decisionmaking were at times unpredictable as a first-year player,Baker’s energy and enthusiasm off the bench

proved to be huge positives. The Ohio native almost single-handedly put the Bruins over the top at Florida Gulf Coast,testimony to his ability to impact a game. You might sayBaker has assumed Belmont’s menace and agitator role from2008 graduate Will Peeples.

If Ian Clark and Kerron Johnson earned high marksfor their play as freshmen, Trevor Noack may have receivedan incomplete from no fault of his own. With playing timehard to come by as a freshman backing up Keaton Belcher,Noack flashed signs of limitless potential. In fact, Coach Byrdwould be the first to admit that no Bruin is more primed for abreakout season than this ultra-skilled Texan. A fierce com-petitor in the paint blessed with a nice shooting touch, Noackis expected to see a significant rise in times his number iscalled.

Blake Jenkins is one of three frontcourt newcomersfor the Bruins. An uber-athletic swingman from Knoxville,Jenkins benefitted from a redshirt season last year. Boastingenviable length and leaping ability, Jenkins will giveBelmont’s offense added dimensions on the offensive glassand on the break. Couple that with tutelage from JordanCampbell as a stout wing defender and Jenkins could findhimself on the floor early and often.

Speaking of length, Chad Lang has that in spades.The engaging mountain of a man from Marietta is the son offormer NBA veteran Andrew Lang. A teammate of J.J. Mannin summer basketball leagues, Lang has the size, length andsoft hands you simply cannot teach. Yet to scratch the surfaceof his enormous potential, Lang has the chance to learnbehind Hedgepeth and Saunders and ease his way into ameaningful role.

Holden Mobley joins the Bruins as a non-scholarshipplayer. Mobley led Montgomery Bell Academy to a 24-5record and a state championship as a senior.

2010-11 season outlook

FIVE QUESTIONS WITH COACH BYRD

Q: Going into last season, there were so many unknowns -incoming freshmen, transfer players...what would the nextphase of Belmont Basketball look like? Looking back, how doyou feel about last season and what the team accomplished?

A: The highlight would have to be that such a young teammanaged a tie for the Atlantic Sun championship when ourleague had so many teams with experience and high expecta-tions. The team was enjoyable to coach and our effort wasmore consistent from game to game than any team we haveever had. The disappointments are kind of obvious: losing inthe final seconds of the first round game of the conferencetournament, falling one game short of 20 wins and missingout on post season play. Hopefully this will make our team alittle hungrier next season.

Q: Much was made of Ian Clark's impressive freshman seasonwhich garnered significant national recognition. What can weexpect from Ian this season?

A: Ian loves to play and practice the game so I suspect andwould hope that he will continue to improve throughout hiscareer. He had a great year, but he knows he has plenty ofroom to improve in different areas. And I think he will workon those areas to make himself a more complete player.

Q: Unlike last year, where you were adjusting after the gradu-ation of the nucleus of Belmont's NCAA Tournament teams,this season the Bruins return virtually every key contributorfrom a conference championship team. Talk about the differ-ence, and how it might impact how you set goals and addressthe "mental side" of the game.

A: It is always safest to concentrate as much as possible onthe next task at hand, whether it is a practice or a game, but itis hard to not set your sights on some goals. It is safe to saythat with the success that our young players enjoyed a year

ago, we want to improve in all areas. But the obvious goal is aconference tournament championship and I think it is reason-able to expect our team to be very competitive for that cham-pionship.

Q: In your mind what will be a few keys to a successful 2010-11 season?

A: We need to continue to emphasize our play on the defen-sive end; we were very pleased with our numbers on that enda year ago. I think we should be a better rebounding team onboth ends and our offensive execution and decision-makingneed to improve. We need fewer turnovers and better shotselection.

Q: Last year was arguably the deepest, most competitive col-lection of teams the Atlantic Sun Conference has sported inrecent memory. Do you have any early thoughts on the leaguelandscape this coming season?

A: Our conference is improving dramatically. We haverebounded from the loss of good teams such as CentralFlorida, Troy and Georgia State from several seasons ago.Schools such as Campbell, Mercer and North Florida have allimproved greatly in the last year or two and we all know whatJacksonville has done since Cliff Warren arrived; KennesawState had the big win over Lipscomb in the tournament lastyear and had a very young team. The next step for our confer-ence - and our program as well - is to distinguish itself withgreater quality and greater quantity of wins in the non-confer-ence. We did that to an extent two years ago. The league lostsome very good players, but I expect the conference race to beas tightly bunched as it was a year ago.

One of the most successful and respected coaches in the country, Head

Coach Rick Byrd has been a model of consistency in leading Belmont's

transition from an NAIA institution to a perennial headliner and

championship program in NCAA Division-I.

Byrd, who has roamed the sidelines for more than a quarter century,

turned in one of his finest coaching jobs in 2009-10. After losing the core

nucleus of three consecutive NCAA Tournament teams and welcoming

eight newcomers, Byrd directed the Bruins to a share of their third

Atlantic Sun Conference regular season championship in the past five

years. All told, Belmont has won six conference championships (three

regular season, three tournament) since 2006 - only Kansas, Memphis,

Gonzaga and Winthrop have won more over that span. Unquestionably,

Byrd has built a program with staying power. With 14 more conference

victories a year ago, the Bruins remain part of an exclusive fraternity in

college basketball. Only Belmont and Kansas have won 12 or more regu-

lar season conference games each of the past eight years.

Postseason honors piled up for Bruin freshman Ian Clark, who was

named Mid Major All-America and Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year

by CollegeInsider.com and Sporting News, respectively. Clark was also

named Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year and Second Team All-

Atlantic Sun by the league office. Byrd himself was named Atlantic Sun

Coach of the Year by CollegeInsider.com.

Widely-regarded for his offensive philosophies and halfcourt execution,

Byrd continues to rewrite the coaching record books. With 580 career

victories, Byrd ranks 12th among all active NCAA Division-I head

coaches in wins. Moreover, only five head coaches in the nation have

been at their respective institutions longer than Byrd’s 24 years of service

at Belmont. Under Byrd’s guidance, the Bruins have won 107 games and

nearly 80 percent of their conference games over the past five years.

Byrd led the Bruins to a 20-13 record in 2008-09 and a postseason appear-

ance in the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT). It

marked Belmont’s fourth straight 20+ win campaign and postseason

berth; fifth in the last six years. Belmont spent much of the 2008-09 sea-

son ranked in the Mid Major Top 25 poll and earned the program’s first

NCAA-era postseason victory at Evansville of the Missouri Valley

Conference. The Bruins also defeated preseason Sun Belt Conference

favorite Middle Tennessee State and defending Ohio Valley Conference

champion Austin Peay, not to mention losing at the buzzer at nationally-

ranked Tennessee.

The lightning quick floor general Alex Renfroe became the second Bruin

to earn All-America honors from the Associated Press. Renfroe was also

named All-District by the NABC and Basketball Times and a Mid-Major

All-American by CollegeInsider.com and CollegeHoopsNet.com.

Byrd led Belmont to a third consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance

Rick ByrdHead CoachTennessee, 1976Overall: 580-328 (30th year)Belmont: 488-273 (25th year)

in 2007-08. In fact, Belmont was one of just six programs in the country

to earn an automatic bid in the NCAA Tournament three consecutive

years. Moreover, the Bruins became the first member institution in

Atlantic Sun Conference history to win the three straight conference

tournament championships. Belmont finished the 2007-08 campaign with

a 25-9 record - a single-season program record for wins and its fourth 20-

win season in five years. The remarkable season included marquee

non-conference victories over Big East stalwart Cincinnati and SEC

power Alabama, which led to national press in USA Today and ESPN

among others. The Bruins then elevated their play to another level dur-

ing the heart of conference action. Belmont went a program-record 14-2

in the league en route to its first-ever outright Atlantic Sun Conference

regular season championship. Then with tournament wins over

Campbell, ETSU, and Jacksonville, the Bruins carried a staggering 13-

game win streak into the ‘Big Dance.’ - the program’s longest winning

streak of its NCAA era and the nation’s third-longest entering

postseason play.

But all that pales in comparison to the herculean effort the Bruins put

forth in their NCAA Tournament first round game against four-time

national champion Duke. A prohibitive underdog as a No. 15 seed in the

West Region, Belmont stood toe-to-toe with the Blue Devils for 40

minutes. With the support of the overwhelming majority of a jammed-

packed Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. and millions watching

nationwide, Belmont overcame a 42-35 halftime deficit to claim several

leads late in the contest. All that kept Belmont from one of the greatest

victories in college basketball history was a coast-to-coast drive from

Gerald Henderson with 12 seconds remaining. Three opportunities in the

final seconds would narrowly miss, and the Bruins would lose to Duke,

71-70.

Effusive praise of Coach Byrd and the Bruins poured in over the days

and weeks to come - from media and the coaching community alike.

With apologies to the Dallas Cowboys, for at least one night in March,

Belmont Basketball was ‘America’s Team.’

Predictably, postseason honors were plentiful. Byrd was named Atlantic

ips Sun Conference Coach of the Year, by the league and numerous publica-

tions. Moreover, Byrd was selected as one of 10 finalists for the inaugural

Skip Prosser Man of the Year Award, an award to be given annually to a

Division I head coach who best represents the high standards of the coach-

ing profession: Winning with integrity.

Justin Hare was named First Team All-Atlantic Sun and Atlantic Sun All-

Tournament Team - among countless honors received by the senior. Shane

Dansby earned Atlantic Sun Tournament MVP honors as well as Second

Team All-Atlantic Sun. Matthew Dotson also was named to the All-

Tournament Team while Jordan Campbell became the latest Bruin to garner

A-Sun All-Freshman honors.

Belmont ended 2007-08 ranked 11th in the final Mid Major poll on

CollegeInsider.com - representing the highest-ever final ranking by an A-Sun

team and third time in the last five years so recognized. Belmont’s 78 in the

RPI also reflected a program-best. The Bruins led the Atlantic Sun

Conference in six statistical categories. Furthermore, Belmont finished one

of its most outstanding offensive seasons ranked in the Top-40 nationally in

five statistical categories, including ranking fourth in three-point field goals

per game.

2006-07 was yet another year cloaked with pressure and high expectations.

Nevertheless, behind Byrd's leadership, Belmont answered every call. There

were non-conference wins over formidable programs like Rice, Fordham, and

Arkansas-Little Rock; the latter of which on December 13, 2006, gave Byrd 500

career victories and placed him as one of just 15 active head coaches in

Division I to have reached that milestone. After going 14-4 in conference

play, the Bruins stormed past Gardner-Webb, Campbell, and ETSU to earn a

second straight Atlantic Sun Championship and successive trip to the NCAA

Tournament. Belmont received a 15 seed in the East Regional, where they

played Big East Champion and eventual Final Four representative

Georgetown.

The 2006-07 Belmont Bruins finished with a 23-10 mark. The Bruins were

ranked 25th in the final Mid Major poll on CollegeInsider.com. During the sea-

son, Byrd was also honored by CollegeInsider.com with a 'Coach of the Week'

award.

Justin Hare and Boomer Herndon led Belmont's postseason honor parade,

being named First Team and Second Team All-Atlantic Sun, respectively.

Hare once again was named Atlantic Sun Tournament MVP, while Andy

Wicke and Andrew Preston joined him on the All-Tournament Team.

Yet as an even greater source of pride, Byrd has overseen a program

characterized by unparalleled academic achievement. For nine consecutive

years, the Bruins have compiled a team G.P.A. of 3.0 or higher. Since joining

the Atlantic Sun nine years ago, Belmont paces the league with a whopping

87 players making the Atlantic Sun All-Academic honoree list - far and away

the league standard. Justin Hare carries the academic banner for the Bruins:

Three-time Academic All-District, two-time Academic All-American by

CoSida and two-time Division I-AAA Athletic Directors Association

Academic Team. Of the 65 NCAA Tournament teams, Belmont ranked third

in the most recent NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) report. The APR

classified Belmont men's basketball as one of the premier academic programs

in the country.

In 2008-09, Andy Wicke added to the academic legacy of Belmont Basketball,

receiving the program’s eighth Academic All-America honor. Belmont shares

the national lead in Academic All-Americans for men’s basketball since 2001.

Moreover, Wicke was recognized at the 2009 Final Four in Detroit as one of

10 finalists for the prestigious Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award. He also joined

Hare in receiving a coveted NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship.

In addition, Belmont University has received the prestigious Atlantic Sun

Conference Academic Trophy seven of the eight six years. Six of the last

eight Atlantic Sun Male Student-Athletes of the Year have been Belmont

Basketball players, while the program’s three top scorers (Wes Burtner, Justin

Hare and Adam Mark) have become Academic All-Americans. Bruin stand-

out Wes Burtner landed CollegeInsider.com's NCAA Student-Athlete of the

Year award in 1998.

Byrd led the Bruins to its first dream campaign in 2005-06 - surely one of the

most memorable seasons in school history. With a 15-5 mark during Atlantic

Sun Conference play, Belmont earned its first regular season championship in

team history. But the landmark achievements were merely beginning for

Byrd and his team. Victories over Campbell, Stetson, and rival Lipscomb in

Johnson City earned Belmont its first Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament

title and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. The Bruins received a 15 seed in

the Oakland regional, where they played Pac-10 Champion and eventual

National Runner-up UCLA.

Belmont ended with a sterling 20-11 record. All told for 2005-06, Belmont

ranked fourth nationally in field goal percentage (.493), eighth in scoring

offense (80.6 ppg), and 15th in assists (16.7 apg). Furthermore, Belmont has

ranked in the top five in the NCAA in three-point shooting six of the last

nine years.

The University of Tennessee graduate holds an all-time record of 580-328 and

is 488-273 at Belmont. Byrd's 488 victories are more than any other coach in

Belmont basketball history and they account for over half of the school's all-

time wins.

On December 30, 2003, Belmont knocked off #23 Missouri to give the school

its first victory over a top-25 opponent. Consequently, Byrd and his team

received major media interest from ESPN radio and Dick Vitale's weekly

ESPN.com column. The Bruins kept it rolling, posting an eight-game win

streak in Atlantic Sun play en route to a third place finish in the league. Byrd

would register 20 wins for the first time since the team's arrival in Division I.

On the strength of their top-100 RPI and 21 victories, Belmont received a

berth in the National Invitational Tournament (NIT) where they faced local

rival Austin Peay. The team finished the season ranked 23rd in

CollegeInsider.com's Mid-Major Top-25.

"It is hard to imagine Belmont basketball without immediately thinking of

Rick Byrd," stated Director of Athletics Mike Strickland. "We could not ask

for a better person to lead our team. He has positioned the program to com-

pete at the top of the Atlantic Sun Conference annually."

This marked the second straight impressive season for the Bruins. Belmont

captured the A-Sun North Division title in 2002 as the league experimented

with a divisional setup. Consequently, the Bruins were the number two seed

in the postseason tournament.

Conference competition has been an area where Byrd has really shined. In

his career, the Knoxville, Tenn., native is 315-92 in league play, a remarkable

.774 winning percentage. Moreover, Belmont is an eye-opening 122-45 in

Atlantic Sun Conference games over the past eight seasons. In 1994-95, he led

Belmont to a perfect 18-0 record en route to the Tennessee Collegiate Athletic

Conference Championship. He has earned District or Conference Coach of

the Year accolades on six separate occasions, most recently receiving the

NAIA National Coach of the Year award after leading Belmont to an

historical 37-2 record in 1994-95. That season saw Belmont climb to number

one in the national polls for the first time and marked the school's second of

consecutive appearance in the NAIA Final Four. Byrd led Belmont to three

TCAC titles in all. Prior, he directed Lincoln Memorial to a pair of

conference championships in a three-year stint from 1983-1986.

In 1998-99, Byrd earned the Tennessee Men's College Basketball Coach of the

Year honor as selected by the Tennessee Sports Writers Association after

Belmont finished 14-13 in its second season as a member of Division I.

Among the 14 victories were road wins over NCAA Tournament participants

Samford and Winthrop as well as a home win over NIT Semifinalist Butler.

Belmont won all four games it played against mid-state rivals Middle

Tennessee, Austin Peay and Tennessee State to earn local bragging rights.

Byrd's accomplishments are many: he received the Nashville Area Athletic

Club's Reese L. Smith Award for achievement and community service in 1995.

That same year, Rick was named NAIA National Coach of the Year as well

as Tennessee Collegiate Athletic Conference Coach of the Year. At Lincoln

Memorial University, where he posted a three-year record of 69-28, Byrd was

chosen as NAIA District 24 Coach of the Year and Tennessee Valley

Athletic Conference Coach of the Year twice. In 1989, while at Belmont, he

was selected District 24 Coach of the Year and Area V Coach of the Year.

Prior to Belmont University's decision to join the NCAA, Byrd shaped its

men's basketball program into a veritable NAIA powerhouse. Belmont made

five NAIA national tournament appearances under Byrd's direction, includ-

ing trips to the semifinals in 1995 and 1996 and a spot in the quarterfinals in

1994. They won three Tennessee Collegiate Athletic Conference champi-

onships, and finished second in the league another five times. The 1993-94

team also received the Dr. James Naismith Sportsmanship Award. Byrd

coached six players who earned a total of 11 NAIA All-America honors,

including Joe Behling, a first-team All-American in 1988, 1989 and 1990 and

the 1989 NAIA National Player of the Year; Kerry West, a 1995 first-team

selection; and DaQuinn Goff, a 1996 first-team choice. Behling was inducted

into the NAIA Hall of Fame this past March during the NAIA Basketball

National Championship.

After beginning his coaching career in 1976 with a two-year stint as assistant

coach at Maryville College, Byrd became head coach at Maryville. His two-

year record of 23-27 is misleading, as Maryville's 15-11 ledger in Byrd's second

season was the school's best mark in 31 years. He was

hired as assistant coach at Tennessee Tech in 1980 and

served three years in Cookeville before becoming head coach at Lincoln

Memorial in 1983.

Byrd also has served in an administrative capacity at Belmont. He was

Director of Athletics from 1986 to 1991 and acting Director of Athletics for a

brief period before Mike Strickland was named to the post in the fall of 1996.

In 1990, Byrd was instrumental in creating the Vince Gill Celebrity Game, an

event that raised money for the Bruins' basketball team and Belmont's School

of Music Business. Joining forces with his good friend and golfing partner

Gill, Byrd spearheaded an overwhelming success.

A graduate of Knoxville's Doyle High School, Byrd was an honors student at

Casey Alexander is entering his 16th year as a member of the Belmontbasketball staff. In the summer of 2002, Alexander was promoted toAssociate Head Coach.

Alexander's work with the team focuses on the perimeter players,especially the point guards. He also takes a lead role in scouting reports,offensive play institution, recruiting, schedule, and game-planning.Much of Belmont’s winning tradition can attributed to Alexander’s driveand high standards - both as a player and coach. It is no wonder why heis universally respected by his peers.

This past season, Ian Clark became the latest in a long line of Bruinguards to benefit from Coach Alexander’s experience. Clark was namedMid Major All-America and Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year byCollegeInsider.com and Sporting News, respectively. Moreover, Alexanderhas aided the development of Kerron Johnson and Drew Hanlen, wholed the Atlantic Sun and ranked among the NCAA leaders in assist-to-turnover ratio.

Without question, Alexander played a lead role in the evolution ofdecorated point guard Alex Renfroe. From one standout collegiate pointguard to another, Alexander molded decorated point guard Alex Renfroeand his immense physical gifts into a refined force on both ends of thefloor. As a senior, Renfroe led the Bruins in scoring, rebounding, assists,blocked shots and field goal percentage - believed to be the first collegebasketball player since Tim Duncan in 1997 to lead his team in all fivecategories.

Renfroe was also one of just four players nationally - along with Florida'sNick Calathes, Duquesne's Aaron Jackson and Idaho's Mac Hopson - toaverage at least 15 points, five rebounds and five assists per game.

Renfroe earned AP All-America honors, NABC and Basketball Times All-District Honors and was named 2009 Atlantic Sun Player of the Year.

Alexander also brought the most out of former All-Conference guardsAndy Wicke and Justin Hare. Wicke finished his career with 1,236 pointsand 303 three-point field goals - good for second on the Atlantic SunConference’s all-time list. Meanwhile, Hare finished his career with astaggering 1,761 career points - then eighth on the conference’s all-timescoring list. Moreover, both were Academic All-Americans.

Coach Alexander's scouting reports and attention to detail greatlycontributed to Belmont's near-upset of three-time National ChampionDuke in the 2008 NCAA Tournament.

In addition to these duties, he also assists in various aspects of therecruiting process and oversees the off-season individual workouts forperimeter players. During his time at Belmont, the Bruins have rankedin the top-25 nationally in three-pointers per game 12 times and were theonly team in the NCAA from 1998-2002 that finished in the top four inthat category each season. Behind Belmont's strong guard play, theBruins have ranked among the NCAA's leaders in field goal percentage,scoring, and assists. Moreover, in 2006-07, behind improved perimeter

defense, Alexander helped Belmont lead the Atlantic Sun and rankedsecond in the NCAA in three-point field goal percentage defense (.285).

Under Coach Alexander's tutelage, Belmont has garnered Atlantic SunAll-Freshman recognition six of the last eight years: Brian Collins (2003),Josh Goodwin (2004), Justin Hare (2005), Andy Wicke (2006), JordanCampbell (2008), Ian Clark (2010). Aside from the aforementioned play-ers, Alexander was instrumental in the development of All-Atlantic Sunplayer Steve Drabyn, who led the nation in free throw percentage in 2003(.951).

Alexander enjoyed a stellar four-year career (1992-95) at Belmont, estab-lishing himself among the top 10 in several of the school's career statisti-cal categories. As the team's captain, he earned a spot on the All-Tennessee Collegiate Athletic Conference team in 1995 when Belmontposted a 37-2 overall record and an 18-0 TCAC mark. Belmont registereda 119-25 record during Alexander's career. For his contributions both as aplayer and coach, Alexander was inducted into the Belmont UniversityAthletic Hall of Fame on October 7th, 2005.

A highly-regarded name in coaching circles, Alexander was ranked as theNo. 5 'Mid Major Assistant Coach' in the nation according toFoxSports.com senior college basketball writer Jeff Goodman and No. 6 ‘Mid Major Assistant Coach’ by Jason Belzer of CollegeInsider.com.

Alexander is a product of Brentwood Academy where he was a three-sport standout, playing in five state championship games, capturing two.His success as a high school and collegiate athlete is part of the reason heis so highly valued by head coach Rick Byrd.

Alexander received a bachelor's degree in physical education fromBelmont in 1995 and a master's degree in sports management fromAustin Peay State University in 1996.

He and his wife, the former Sunni Dixon, also a 1995 Belmont graduate,are the parents of three children: Allie (11), Reed (8) and Mason (5).They reside in Franklin, Tennessee.

Brian Ayers begins his 13th season on the Bruins' coaching staff.

Ayers specializes in post-play instruction - offensive moves, footwork,

positioning, and team defense. His instruction is one of the main reasons

why Belmont is annually among the nation's leaders in field goal

percentage shooting and offensive efficiency.

Himself a productive post player at Lipscomb University for college

basketball’s all-time winningest head coach Don Meyer, Ayers has been

instrumental in developing Belmont’s forwards and centers. This past

season, Mick Hedgepeth and Scott Saunders ranked among the Atlantic

Sun Conference leaders in field goal percentage. In particular, Hedgepeth

had one of the greatest season-to-season jumps in scoring average among

all post players in college basketball.

Three recent Bruin post standouts - Adam Sonn, Boomer Herndon and

Andrew Preston - have gone on to enjoy lengthy professional careers

overseas. Sonn was named Atlantic Sun Player of the Year in 2003, while

all-time great Adam Mark became only the sixth player ever to lead the

NCAA in field goal percentage in consecutive seasons. Mark’s .708 field

goal percentage as a sophomore was the fifth-highest single-season field

goal percentage in NCAA history. Mark ran his total of A-Sun Player of

the Week honors to seven, the second most in conference history en

route to back-to-back first team All-Atlantic Sun accolades.

In 2007-08, Ayers helped expand the game of forward Matthew Dotson -

who showcased a variety of back to the basket moves in Belmont's near-

upset of three-time National Champion Duke in the 2008 NCAA

Tournament.

His continued work and patience with former all-conference centers

Boomer Herndon and Andrew Preston reaped huge dividends as the

‘Twin Tower’ duo ranked second and third in the Atlantic Sun in field

goal percentage respectively in 2006-07. A year earlier, the Bruins led the

Atlantic Sun and ranked fourth nationally in field goal percentage (.493).

Moreover, Ayers helped Belmont enjoy one of the greatest single-season

improvements in rebounding margin in program history - a big reason

why the Bruins reached their first NCAA Tournament.

Hedgepeth, Saunders, forward Trevor Noack and incoming freshman

Chad Lang are the latest in a long line of productive post players for

Belmont.

Brian AyersAssistant CoachLipscomb, 199313th season at Belmont

Besides his work with the Bruins in the paint, he also handles opponent

scouting, recruiting, and works in concert with the strength and

conditioning staff on the individual workout programs for Belmont

student-athletes.

Ayers, a native of Clarksville, Tennessee, spent two years on staff at

Vanderbilt University. During that time, the Commodores made one

trip to the NCAA tournament. Prior to that, he served as an assistant

coach at Austin Peay. While with the Governors' program, Austin Peay

won the 1996 Ohio Valley Conference Tournament Championship and

advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Brian also served as an assistant

coach at Nashville's David Lipscomb High School for one season, help-

ing the Mustangs to a 28-6 record and the Class AA semifinals in 1995.

Ayers played his college basketball at Lipscomb University. He served as

team captain his junior and senior years and earned NAIA Academic

All-America honors. During Ayers' four year career, the Bisons compiled

a record of 141-18 and advanced to one NAIA Final Four, two Elite

Eights, and one Sweet Sixteen. He graduated from Lipscomb in 1993

while earning a master's degree in sports management from Austin Peay

State University in 1996.

Brian and his wife Jill, a 1989 Belmont graduate, have four sons between

them: Daniel (14), Taylor (11), Liam (11) and Luke (8).

November 13, 2009Hec Edmundson Pavilion - - Seattle, Wash.Belmont Bruins 36 38 74Portland State Vikings 31 36 67

SEATTLE, WASH. - - Behind 21 points from freshmanIan Clark and 16 points from senior Keaton Belcher,Belmont Basketball defeated two-time defending Big SkyChampion Portland State Friday night, 74-67, in theopening game of the Athletes in Action Classic.TheBruins, who started the season with half of their 14 manroster making debuts in a Belmont uniform, showed littlesigns of opening game nerves. Clark scored six earlypoints and gave Belmont an 8-7 lead before the Vikingsreplied with six unanswered points.The shot clock opera-tor could have made a Starbucks run in the early going asboth teams embraced the frenetic pace. After a ChrisHarriel basket tied the score at 19, Belmont scored 10 ofthe next 12 points. Behind strong halfcourt defense andmore offensive brilliance from Clark, the Bruins seized a29-21 lead with 5:26 left in the half. In fact, when the dustsettled, the gifted freshman from Memphis had poured in14 points in his first 14 minutes as a Bruin. Strangely nei-ther the Bruins nor Vikings - two of the nation's topthree-point shooting teams a year ago - could find therange from behind the arc in the first half. The teamswent 3-24 from long distance in the opening 20 minutes.An interior basket from sophomore Scott Saunders sentthe Bruins to the locker room up five, 36-31. The Bruincoaches had to be largely pleased with the first half effort,holding the athletic and gifted Portland State team to 40percent shooting and forcing nine turnovers. A bit of con-fusion arose prior to the start of the second half to clarifywhether Portland State point guard Dominic Waters hadtwo or three personal fouls. The officials concluded thatWaters had two fouls, and that would free the All-BigSky guard up for major production to open half numbertwo. After a Keaton Belcher floater put the Bruins up 42-35, Waters buried three consecutive left wing three-point-ers to put the Vikings on top 44-43 with 15:38 left.Following a Rick Byrd timeout, the Bruins respondedwith a timely 9-1 spurt, capped by a three-pointer andoffensive rebound basket from Belcher. Moments later,Clark rejoined the party with five quick points of hisown, giving the Bruins their largest lead of the evening,65-56, with 7:27 remaining. But Portland State would notgo away. After watching Waters and Phil Nelson providethree-point barrages, Melvin Jones sank two baselinetreys in a 15 second span to inch the Vikings within five,67-62. Belmont also squandered a few opportunities tostretch its lead by missing one-and-one trips to the chari-ty stripe. Then after Clark picked up his fourth personalfoul with 4:09 left, Portland State clawed within one, 67-66, on two Nelson free throws. But the Bruins dug deepand showed tremendous poise and mental toughnessdown the stretch. Following one free throw from juniorJon House, freshman Kerron Johnson went coast to coastfor two to increase Belmont's lead to 70-66 with threeminutes left. Belmont got four consecutive defensivestops thereafter, allowing Belcher and Clark to secure thevictory from the line.

November 14, 2009Hec Edmundson Pavilion - - Seattle, Wash.Belmont Bruins 39 39 78[14/13] Washington Huskies 49 47 96

SEATTLE, WASH. - - After matching the defendingPac-10 Champions shot for shot for 20 minutes, BelmontBasketball dropped a 96-78 decision at 13th-rankedWashington Saturday night. The Bruins, following animpressive victory over Portland State on Friday, got offto an inauspicious start the Huskies raced out to a 6-0lead 90 seconds in. But a mid-range jumper from KeatonBelcher and a layin from Mick Hedgepeth momentarilysilenced the Husky crowd and allowed the Bruins to set-tle in. Both teams were scorching from the floor early on,but back-to-back three-pointers from Isaiah Thomas andAbdul Gaddy gave Washington an 18-9 lead just over fiveminutes in. Though freshman Kerron Johnson would behindered by two personal fouls, Belmont systematicallyworked its way back into the game. Five points from IanClark and a three-pointer from Belcher highlighted a 10-2Belmont run which got the Bruins within 24-22 midwaythrough the first half. Then after two free throws fromBrandon Baker, Belmont continued the positive momen-tum as consecutive interior baskets from Scott Saunderstied the score at 34 with 5:08 left in the half. Following adefensive stop, the Bruins freed Jordan Campbell for athree-pointer and their first lead of the game, but the shotrimmed out. Washington proceeded to ratchet up thedefensive pressure and embark on an 11-0 run of its ownlate in the half. A Thomas three-pointer in front of theBruin bench - while being fouled - gave the Huskies a 45-34 edge with 2:23 in the half. Though hurt by two missedone-and-one free throw opportunities during the Huskyspurt, a trey by Clark moments later helped stem the tideas the Bruins went to the locker room down 10, 49-39.The Bruin coaching staff knew that defending IsaiahThomas - arguably the most dangerous left-hander inSeattle next to Ichiro - would be a chore. Perhaps whatthey didn't anticipate was an offensive explosion fromforward Matthew Bryan-Amaning. The Englishman, whoin 66 career games coming in had scored 15 or more pointsfour times, thwarted the Bruins' valiant effort to get backinto the game. After a backdoor dunk from Belcher and aCampbell three-pointer got Belmont within 51-44 with19:20 left, Bryan-Amaning scored four baskets in a twoand a half minute span to stretch the Husky lead back to11. Two quick buckets from Clark got the Bruins withinnine, 59-50, but the offensive efficiency and reboundingstrength of Washington took hold. A Quincy Pondexterputback capped a 21-8 Husky run midway through thesecond half. Belmont was unable to get back within singledigits thereafter. For the game, the Bruins shot 51 percent(27-for-53) from the floor - including 7-for-18 from three-point range. However, Washington's offensive rebound-ing prowess allowed the host team to attempt 22 moreshots than Belmont.

November 15, 2009Hec Edmundson Pavilion - - Seattle, Wash.Belmont Bruins 27 46 73Wright State Raiders 45 37 82

SEATTLE, WASH. - - Belmont Basketball foughtthrough a difficult first half and made a game of it latebefore falling to Wright State, 82-73, in the final game ofthe Athletes in Action Classic Sunday. The game markedthe fourth meeting between the Bruins and Raiders sincethe 2006 season, with the coaching staffs of ever-respectedRick Byrd and Brad Brownell knowing each other quitewell. After nice offensive performances against PortlandState and Washington earlier this weekend, Belmontstarted quickly. A layin from Trevor Noack - his first col-legiate basket - gave Belmont an 11-9 lead less than sixminutes in. Then following a Cooper Land three-pointer,Scott Saunders powered up for two to get the Bruinswithin one, 14-13, at the 12:59 mark. What followed nextmight be as rare as sunshine in the perpetually overcastPacific Northwest; Belmont went the next the seven anda half minutes without scoring a single point. Strong half-court Wright State defense - one of the nation's top scor-ing and field goal percentage defensive teams a year ago -and scoring from swingman Todd Brown characterizedthe 16-0 Raider run. After Mick Hedgepeth ended theBruin drought from the charity stripe, Wright Statepushed the lead to 42-22 on a wing jumper from CoryCooperwood. Fouls mounted for the Bruins as well, withseven of the teams' 12 first half turnovers coming on play-er control. The Raiders shot 59 percent from the floor -mostly from mid-range jumpshots in halfcourt offense -to lead 45-27 at halftime. Unfortunately for Belmont, thescript did not flip early on in half two. Another Brownshort jumper gave Wright State its largest lead, 52-27,with 16:51 left. But these upstart and new-look Bruinsweren't about to pack it in and leave Seattle without afight. Behind the power post play of Hedgepeth andSaunders, Belmont put Wright State in severe foul trou-ble in the second half and slowly trimmed into the mar-gin. Two free throws by Brandon Baker and a layin fromKeaton Belcher off a timely feed from Kerron Johnsongot the Bruins within 11, 63-52, with 7:20 left. But twothree-pointers from Troy Tabler halted the furiousBelmont push. The players and coaches played it right tothe end, playing full 94 feet much of the final 10 minutes.For the game, Belmont shot 47 percent (24-for-51) fromthe field - including 6-for-18 from three-point range.Hedgepeth led Belmont with a career-high 19 points.Saunders added 10.

Once againtreys from Belcher and Clark got the Bruins off and run-ning. Then after a short Moorer jumper, sophomore MickHedgepeth imposed his will down low. Forcing Hornetbig man Byron Walker to foul out after just 10 minutes ofaction, Hedgepeth's free throws gave the Bruins a 57-30edge with 10:45 to go.

Yet, despite stringing numerousdefensive stops together, the Bruins could not break free.Several empty trips to the free throw line in the final fiveminutes kept the game within two possessions. Followingone Clark free throw, a Matt Heramb three-pointer with23 seconds left got the Owls within two, 56-54. After afoul on the ensuing inbounds pass, Clark again made one-of-two free throws to increase the Belmont lead to threewith 21 seconds left. Kennesaw State proceeded to workits final possession, running several dribble exchanges insearch of a potential game-tying three. After 15 seconds ofsuffocating Belmont defense, Cummings elevated, shot,and made a fiercely contested 25-footer with 3.7 secondsremaining to tie the score at 57. Following a Belmonttimeout, Kerron Johnson raced upcourt, but his off-bal-ance 20 footer at the buzzer rimmed off. As one mightimagine, the raucous and partisan Kennesaw State crowdcame unglued following the Cummings' game-tyingthree-pointer and momentum seemingly fell in the Owls'category heading into overtime. But exhibiting poise andteam unity far beyond their years, the Bruins simplydusted themselves off and went back to work. Belcher gotBelmont on the board first in overtime on a nice feedfrom Drew Hanlen. After a defensive stop, Clark then setup House for another interior score and a 61-57 lead with4:17 to go. After a Jon-Michael Nickerson mid rangejumper cut the lead in half, Clark again played maestro,this time finding Mick Hedgepeth for an easy two. ThenHanlen created a steal on the defensive end and momentslater buried a wing trey to stretch the lead to 66-59.Following a Heramb miss, Clark connected with Belcherfor two and a nine point cushion with 1:47 left. But withCummings still on the floor, nothing was overly safe.The ultra-talented Owl freshman scored two baskets in a17 second span to get Kennesaw State within five, 68-63,with 1:21 to go. And though Belmont would make just 7-of-14 free throws in the final 1:21 of overtime, the Bruins'defense and rebounding were strong enough to keep itoutside of a one possession game to the final horn.

A steal and layin infrom Brandon Baker increased the Bruin lead to 12-2. Thelead swelled to 18, 46-28, on a post basket from ScottSaunders, before the Bears scored the final three points ofthe half. But much like Thursday night at the Owls,Belmont seemingly could not enjoy and build upon earlyprosperity. Aided by Bruin turnovers, Mercer scored threebaskets to open the second half and inch within ninepoints. Jeff Smith capped a 17-7 Mercer run to give thehost Bears a 73-72 lead with 2:34 left in regulation.Moments later, Clark answered with a sweet baselinedrive and score to put Belmont back on top. Then after anexchange of defensive stops, Clark went coast-to-coast fortwo and a 76-73 Bruin lead with 1:32 left. Smith set upBrian Mills for an easy layin to cut the margin to one, 76-75, with 1:15 to go. After a Belcher miss, Jon House skiedfor a clutch weakside rebound to preserve the Bruins pos-session. Belmont passed amidst heavy Mercer pressurebefore Hedgepeth was fouled. The sophomore post mancalmly sank both free throws to increase the lead back tothree, 78-75, with 18 seconds in regulation. Following aMercer timeout for offensive substitution, the Bears freedE.J. Kusnyer for a three-pointer, which he sank with 10seconds in regulation to tie the score at 78. KerronJohnson raced into the frontcourt on the Bruins' final pos-session, but his lead pass to Hedgepeth was deflectedaway and the buzzer sounded. Hedgepeth scored an inte-rior basket 13 seconds into the extra frame, putting theBruins ahead 80-78. Following a Florence layin, Clark andBelcher each made one free throw to give the Bruins an82-80 edge. Mills would then score an offensive reboundbasket and two free throws as Mercer claimed an 84-82advantage with 2:49 left in overtime. Clark ripped thenets on a wing trey off a great skip pass from Hedgepethto put the Bruins back ahead, 85-84, with 2:33 in overtime.Then after an Emerson interior miss, Hedgepeth sanktwo free throws to stretch the lead to three. Mercer wasn'tdone yet. Florence made a deep three-pointer through aBelmont double team to tie the score at 87 with 1:53 left inovertime. But Belmont's point guard had a response of hisown. Late in the shot clock on a somewhat stagnant Bruinpossession, Johnson drilled a straight-on three-pointer toput the Bruins back on top 90-87. Belcher would thensteal the ball from Emerson on the block to get possessionback. Up three, Belmont worked the shot clock beforeJohnson missed a contested pullup jumper. With timewinding down, Florence drove the lane rather than shoot-ing from long range, leading to a Hanlen blocking foul.Florence proceeded to make one free throw to cut themargin to 90-88 with 16 seconds left. Belmont executed asolid inbounds play and broke pressure until Johnson wasfouled with 11 seconds remaining. Johnson confidentlyburied both free throws to put the Bruins back up four.Then, the Bruins played solid open court defense andsmothered the three-point line before surrendering a dunkto Emerson with three seconds to go. Following a defen-sive inbounds warning on Mills and leading 92-90,Belmont found Clark on the subsequent inbounds passbefore he was fouled. He swished both free throws tosecure the win.

After the host BlueRaiders trimmed the lead to three, Keaton Belcher made athree-pointer and Saunders scored down low once moreto bump the lead back to eight, 19-11, less than seven min-utes into the game. A brief scoring flurry from JamesGallman put Middle Tennessee up 24-22 midway throughthe first half; a lead that proved to be short-lived and theBlue Raiders' last edge of the evening.

Belmont opened the second half infine form. Johnson followed up a Belcher score with asteal and contested layin of his own, giving the Bruins a42-34 lead with 19:01 left. The Blue Raiders inched within44-42 on a baseline trey from Rod Emanuel, before twosilky smooth jumpers from Clark and another interiorscore from Saunders extended the Bruin lead back toeight. The offensive ebb-and-flow continued, as anotherburst from Gallman was resoundingly answered by Clark.Moreover, treys from House and Jordan Campbell helpedthe Bruin keep a 62-56 lead midway through the secondhalf. Solid scoring from Desmond Yates, the All-Sun Beltperformer making his 2009-10 debut following a preseasoninjury, and Montarrio Haddock inhibited the Bruins frompulling away.

December 16, 2009Chaifetz Arena - - St. Louis, Mo.Belmont Bruins 30 37 67St. Louis Billikens 33 42 75

ST. LOUIS, MO. - - Belmont men's basketball had itssix-game win streak snapped Wednesday night at St.Louis, 75-67. A nice opening play with Ian Clark feedingMick Hedgepeth for an easy two got Belmont off andrunning. However, playing against a St. Louis team thatranked 10th in the nation in scoring defense, runningwould prove difficult. Predictably, and living up to theGateway City's old ABA team - Spirits of St. Louis - ahotly-contested, spirited affair ensued. After anotherHedgepeth interior basket, the Bruin big man drew a sec-ond personal foul on St. Louis' talented center WillieReed with more than 12 minutes left in the first half. Infact, Hedgepeth scored nine straight points midwaythrough the first half to carry the Belmont offensive load.Though St. Louis would hold modest leads much of thehalf, the Bruins hung tough. Another straight-on treyfrom Campbell got Belmont within 30-28 with 1:52 left inthe half. Following a Kyle Cassity triple, Keaton Belcherplayed beat-the-buzzer on the running bank shot whichsent the Bruins to the locker room down only three, 33-30.A darting drive from Kerron Johnson trimmed the mar-gin to one to open the second half. Following a Reed bas-ket, Belcher poured in a deep three-pointer to tie the scoreat 35 with 18:18 left. But seven more points from Reedkeyed a Billiken run which put the hosts up 51-41 with13:00 remaining. Moments later, Reed drew Hedgepeth'sfourth personal foul on a charging call, sending Belmont'sleading scorer to the bench. Though Belmont matched St.Louis' intensity and physicality, timely jumpers fromKwamain Mitchell and effort plays from Brian Conklinstaved off Bruin pushes. Behind free throws and a jumperfrom Justin Jordan, the Billikens carried a 63-50 lead with3:53 left. Yet the Bruins had one final run left in the tank.Two free throws from St. Louis native Drew Hanlen anda Hedgepeth offensive rebound basket made the score 63-54 with 2:57 to go. On the play, Mitchell left the gamewith a right eye injury. Following two charity stripemakes from Christian Salecich, Clark completed a toughconventional three-point play to inch the Bruins withineight. After forcing a Billiken turnover in extended pres-sure defense, Clark missed a tough pullup jumper. Reedthen appeared to slam the door shut with an offensiverebound dunk, giving St. Louis a 67-57 lead with 1:03 left.But behind Coach Byrd's ability to extend games in thefinal seconds with fouls and situational substitutions,Belmont was not done yet. After a Hanlen layin, Johnsonand Conklin got tangled up on the subsequent inboundspass. Momentary chaos ensued, as officials separatedplayers and Billiken head coach Rick Majerus came downcourt to check on Conklin. Johnson was whistled for apersonal foul while Conklin was charged with a technicalfoul for his part. Conklin made one free throw andHanlen made two technical free throws to make the score68-61. With Bruin possession following the technical, IanClark drove the lane and earned two free throws. Hemade both, cutting the margin to 68-63 with 42 secondsleft. After one Justin Jordan free throw, a Johnson drivinglayin got Belmont within 69-65 with 29 seconds left. Onemore Justin Jordan free throw pushed the score back tofive. Clark then got a got look at a three-pointer to get theBruins within two points, but it narrowly missed.

December 19, 2009Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Eastern Illinois Panthers 20 43 63Belmont Bruins 28 32 60

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - Belmont men's basketballdropped a 63-60 decision to Eastern Illinois Saturdaynight. In their first home game since November 30 andtheir final game before the Christmas holiday, the Bruinswere unable to find any semblance of a rhythm againstthe purposeful visitors from Charleston, Ill. ThoughBelmont sank a season-high 14 three-pointers againstEastern Illinois in the earlier meeting this season, thePanthers made a concerted effort to take away the interiorplay of Mick Hedgepeth - who scored a career-high 23points in the first contest. Eastern Illinois packed in anactive halfcourt zone defense, forcing the Bruins to theperimeter. Ian Clark got Belmont on the board with ashort jumper three minutes into the game. However, theBruin defense was equal to the task, as a true slugfestdeveloped. Following a Clark three-pointer, Saundersscored from close range to give Belmont an 18-16 leadwith 5:36 left in the half. Then leading 22-20, the Bruinsreceived back-to-back three-pointers from Drew Hanlenin a 19 second span to provide a 28-20 lead at the break.A straight-on three-pointer from senior Keaton Belcherinched the lead to nine, 31-22, with 18:29 left. But just asthe Bruins appeared ready to kick things into high gear,the Panthers hunkered down and proceeded to amplifytheir offensive execution. Meanwhile, Belmont's staple todate this season - sound halfcourt man-to-man defense -dropped ever so slightly. Jeremy Granger capped a 12-3Eastern Illinois run which tied the score at 34 with 13:45 togo. The Bruins periodically attacked the Panther zone offthe bounce, but misfires from long range mounted andsecond chance points proved hard to come by.Nevertheless, a wing trey from Jordan Campbell gave theBruins a 43-38 edge with 9:44 remaining. But six straightPanther points quickly erased the lead. The lead swungback and forth as did momentum, before Saunders putBelmont ahead 51-50 with 3:55 left. But a short jumperfrom James Hollowell and four free throws enabledEastern Illinois to regain the lead 56-51 with 2:36 to go.Following a Hedgepeth layin, the Panthers sank threemore free throws to up the margin to six. Belmont wouldoffer one last push. Campbell ripped the nets again fromlong distance to get the Bruins within two, 60-58, with 22seconds left. Then after two Tyler Laser free throws,Hedgepeth scored on the offensive glass to again getBelmont within two points, 62-60, with 4.4 seconds left.On the subsequent inbounds play, Laser was fouled oncemore. However, he missed the first of two three throwattempts. He made the second, to give the Panthers a 63-60 lead with 3.8 seconds left. Needing to go the length ofthe court in search of a game-tying three-pointer,Belmont's deep inbounds pass was tipped away as timeexpired. It was a difficult reversal of fortune for theBruins, who had played expertly on both ends of the floorin winning at Eastern Illinois Nov. 28. All told, Belmontshot a season-low 36 percent (20-for-55) from the field -including 9-for-34 from three-point distance.Furthermore,Eastern Illinois shot 61 percent from the floor in the sec-ond half.

December 29, 2009Allen Fieldhouse - - Lawrence, Kan.Belmont Bruins 26 25 51[1/1] Kansas Jayhawks 36 45 81

LAWRENCE, KAN. - - An 18-0 run late first half intothe second half broke open a close game as BelmontBasketball fell at No. 1 Kansas Tuesday night. TheBruins' trip to historic Allen Fieldhouse marked the firsttime in program history Belmont would face the nation'stop-ranked team. And nearly six years to the day ofBelmont's memorable 71-67 victory at nationally-rankedMissouri, the Bruins would deliver some momentary anx-iety for Jayhawk fans during the first half. Despite somecrisp Bruin offense early to create clean shot opportuni-ties, a dunk from Marcus Morris capped an 11-0 start forKansas. Following a Rick Byrd timeout, Belmont got onthe board 5:13 into the game on a wing three-pointer fromDrew Hanlen. The shot not only lifted the lid off theBelmont rim, but seemingly settled the youthful Bruins.In fact, the Bruins held Kansas without a field goal forthe next six minutes in ripping off an impressive 15-3 runafter the inauspicious start. A three-pointer from JordanCampbell capped the spirited run and gave Belmont a 15-14 lead with 9:44 left in the first half. After Bill Self's sec-ond timeout in a three minute span, Kansas regained thelead on a Cole Aldrich layin. But scrappy team defenseand timely shooting kept Belmont well-positioned.Following a rare trey from post player Mick Hedgepeth,Ian Clark ripped the nets from long distance to getBelmont within four, 25-21, with 5:16 in the half. AThomas Robinson dunk bumped the lead back to eightbefore Belmont pushed onwward. Scott Saundersanswered with a conventional three-point play andHedgepeth tacked on a hook shot to trim the margin tothree, 29-26, with 2:32 left in the half. Of the soldoutcrowd of 16,300, the smattering of Belmont fans wereheard loud and clear during the inspired Bruin first half.But Kansas ended the half on a 7-0 run to claim a 36-26 athalftime. But much like the start of the game, Belmontcame out of the locker room ice cold and Kansas capital-ized. Marcus Morris scored five points during an 11-0 KUrun to start the second half as the margin stretched to 21,47-26, with 14:59 left. All told, Belmont went scoreless forthe last 2:32 of the first half and first 5:22 of the secondhalf - a nearly eight minute drought that broke the tightgame open. The Bruins played even with Kansas over thenext 13 minutes, but simply were unable to string togethera significant burst. The interior defense of Aldrich forcedBelmont to the perimeter throughout, and halted anycomeback effort. Moreover, periodic Bruin turnovers orlong misses sparked Kansas into its virtually unstoppabletransition game. The final margin was somewhat mis-leading, as after a Hanlen trey made the score 74-51 with59 seconds left, the Jayhawks scored seven points in thefinal 46 seconds. The Bruins held heralded freshmanXavier Henry to only eight points - the first single figuregame of his college career.

January 2, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.FGCU Eagles 28 38 66Belmont Bruins 26 37 63

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - Despite a solid defensiveeffort, missed shots, missed free throws and turnoversproved too much to overcome as Belmont men's basket-ball fell in the final seconds to FGCU, 66-63, Saturday.In their conference home opener, the Bruins rode fivepoints from Jordan Campbell during an 8-0 run in claim-ing a 9-6 lead four and a half minutes in. But a lengthyBruin drought ensued, as the home team would go thenext seven minutes without a field goal. Nevertheless,solid Belmont defense made the Eagles uncomfortable aswell, as a somewhat sloppy, slugfest materialized. Aftersinking a baseline three-pointer, Kerron Johnson foundbackcourt mate Ian Clark for a fast break layin which tiedthe score at 26 with 35 seconds left in the half. AnthonyBanks scored from inside to give the Eagles a 28-26 lead athalftime. All told, the first half was nothing to writehome about for either side offensively: 43 missed shotsand 22 turnovers combined. Belmont went just 8-for-28from the field. In hopes of a change of fortune, Belmontstomached two Eagle offensive rebounds for kickoutthree-pointers early in the second half in failing behind36-28. But a spirited defense and three made three-point-ers highlighted a 13-2 run which put Belmont on top 41-38with 13:42 to go. After Mick Hedgepeth scored an interiorbasket, the Bruins again weathered a scoring droughtmidway through the half. Belmont went over six minuteswithout a field goal against the FGCU extended zonedefense. A Derrick O'Neil slam put the Eagles ahead 54-46 with 6:29 left. Belmont inched within three, 57-54, on abaseline triple from Clark, before Kyle Marks scored akey basket on an inbounds play to stretch the marginback to five. The teams traded scores before a baselinedrive and slam from Keaton Belcher got the Bruins with-in 63-60 with 1:01 remaining. Following two Reed Bakerfree throws, Clark again ripped the nets from long dis-tance to get Belmont within two, 65-63, with 39 seconds togo. Following a timeout and a stoppage to clarify thegame and shot clock - underneath the FGCU basket -Baker attempted a risky inbounds pass by bouncing theball off of Clark's back and stepping into the court toscore. But the ball got deflected into the corner and wentout of bounds with possession awarded to the Bruins.Needing two points to tie or a three-pointer to win, theBruins worked the offensive possession, before Clarkdrove the lane and fed Hedgepeth at the rim. Hedgepethwas fouled in the act of shooting with 3.4 seconds left.With the crowd on its feet and needing both free throwsto tie, Hedgepeth missed the first free throw attempt.With his team without any timeouts remaining,Hedgepeth then missed the second free throw intentional-ly in hopes of an offensive rebound opportunity. ButMarks grabbed the rebound and made one throw to pro-vide the final margin.

January 4, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Stetson Hatters 20 51 71Belmont Bruins 46 39 85

Solid scoring fromClark, and nice bench production from Trevor Noack andsenior Keaton Belcher pushed Belmont to a 22-14 lead.Then following a Tyshawn Patterson jumpshot, theBruins ripped off a 24-2 run over the next nine minutes totake command. Belmont got 14 consecutive defensivestops during the spurt, in taking a 46-20 lead at halftime.The Bruins shot 53 percent (18-for-34) from the field inthe opening 20 minutes.

And much like thefirst half, Saunders and Hedgepeth found themselves insevere foul trouble, each picking up their respective thirdand fourth personal fouls before the 13:00 mark.

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - Scott Saunders scored a career-high 19 points and Mick Hedgepeth added his third careerdouble-double as Belmont Basketball defeated USCUpstate Thursday, 68-58. It was a rare Thursday after-noon tip, as the Bruins and Spartans dodged a wintry mixin middle Tennessee. Though the Bruins led from start tofinish, they would never feel completely at ease againstarguably the toughest 1-12 team in the land in the visitingSpartans. Belmont raced out to a 13-2 lead four minutes inon a steal and coast-to-coast layin from Drew Hanlen.But two three-pointers from Josh Chavis inched USCUpstate within 15-9 eight minutes into the half.

January 11, 2010Allen Arena - - Nashville, Tenn.Belmont Bruins 19 34 53Lipscomb Bisons 25 39 64

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - Despite holding the oppositionto a season-low in points and 18 points below its seasonaverage, Belmont men's basketball dropped a 64-53 deci-sion at Lipscomb Monday night. The 125th edition of the'Battle of the Boulevard' series would be truly bewilder-ing, as two of the Atlantic Sun Conference's top offensiveteams labored offensively the entire evening. Basketsfrom Scott Saunders and junior Jordan Campbell gotBelmont off to a nice start. But the Bruins would musterone field goal over the next seven and a half minutes aspromising interior chances would rim off or be deterredby helpside Bison defense. Nevertheless, sound halfcourtBruin defense kept the team in the game. Following a bas-ket from Jordan Burgason, consecutive scores from MickHedgepeth and Saunders got the Bruins within 14-10 with8:10 left in the first half. After Saunders added one freethrow, the teams again exchanged defensive stops beforetwo baskets from Josh Slater increased the Lipscomb leadto eight, 23-15, with 3:32 in the half. With both Saundersand Hedgepeth straddled with three personal fouls andIan Clark in a rare slow offensive half, the Bruinsreceived a nice boost off the bench from Brandon Baker.Baker's hustle plays allowed Belmont to creep within 25-19 at the break. The Bruins shot 29 percent (8-for-28) inthe opening 20 minutes. Moreover, 2-for-8 shooting fromthe free throw line, including three consecutive missedone-and-one free throw opportunities hurt the cause. Butafter Hedgepeth picked up his fourth foul seven secondsinto the second half, the host Bisons slowly seized con-trol. Drew Hanlen sank a wing three-pointer to get theBruins within 34-27 with 17:48 left, before Burgasonanswered with five unanswered points. Belmont hadnumerous opportunities to get within five or six pointsmidway through the second half, but each possessionwent empty. Belmont head coach Rick Byrd went withevery lineup imaginable - all 12 Bruins who dressed sawaction - seeking a hot shooting hand. And after Saunderspicked up his fourth personal foul with 13 minutes left,the offensive spark just never materialized. Behind somesavvy play from Clark, Belmont got within 51-41 with 6:12left on a layin from Jon House. But two more basketsfrom Slater extinguished the final Bruin push. Thoughthe Bruin squad would fight hard to the final horn, shotscontinued to rim off on this most frigid of shootingnights.

January 14, 2010UNF Arena - - Jacksonville, Fla.Belmont Bruins 24 19 43UNF Ospreys 21 24 45

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. - - Matt Sauey's tip-in basketwith 0.9 seconds left gave UNF a 45-43 victory overBelmont men's basketball Thursday night. It was an ago-nizing result for the Bruins, who once again played stout,spirited defense for the entire 40 minutes. But pointswould prove hard to come by in this matchup of two ofthe top defensive teams in the Atlantic Sun. Head CoachRick Byrd rewarded the effort plays of Brandon Baker inthe previous game by giving the swingman his first careerstart. And though clean looks and promising interioropportunities surfaced early, Belmont could not seem torip the lid off the basket. Compounding matters, leadingscorer Ian Clark picked up his second personal foul lessthan three minutes into the game, forcing him to theBruin bench. But midway through the first half, Clarkand Drew Hanlen strung together a series of made three-point field goals to give the Bruins a 14-12 lead with 7:06left in the half. The lead would grow to four on a drivinglayin by Clark before the teams once again hunkereddown into an intense halfcourt struggle. A layin fromScott Saunders on a great feed from Kerron Johnson gaveBelmont a 24-21 lead at halftime. Saunders extended thelead to five early in the second half, before Andy Diazhelped UNF trim the margin to one. That's when TrevorNoack provided a huge spark off the bench, as his wingthree-pointer and an offensive rebound basket stretchedthe Bruin lead to six, 34-28, with 11:34 left. Following asteal from Jordan Campbell, Belmont nearly increased thelead to nine, but a three-pointer from Clark dipped in andout. The Ospreys would proceed to score six unansweredpoints and tie the score at 34 with 8:20 left. But the Bruinswere unwilling to relingquish the lead. Two free throwsfrom Mick Hedgepeth and a darting conventional three-point play from Clark gave Belmont a 41-37 edge with6:20 to go. After another defensive stop, Belmont's chanceto go up six would go by the boards as Saunders wouldhave two interior shots rim off. Diaz then scored fourstraight points to tie the score at 41 with 3:38 remaining.After an exchange of defensive stops, Clark buried asweet teardrop in the lane with 1:09 left to put the Bruinsahead 43-41. Brad Haugabrook replied with a floater of hisown to nod the score at 43 with 50 seconds left. Thenafter running its halfcourt set, Belmont again turned toClark, whose three-point attempt late in the shot clockrimmed off. The Ospreys claimed the rebound and heldfor the final shot. Haugabrook, who returned after brieflyleaving the game in the second half with a right leginjury, worked the game clock down and drove the lane.But Hanlen defended him well and forced a missed shotwith two seconds left. But Sauey crashed the offensiveglass and tipped in the miss with under a second remain-ing to win the game for UNF. Belmont held UNF to 26percent shooting, including 1-for-12 from three-pointrange. Moreover, Haugabrook, who held the second-bestshooting percentage for Atlantic Sun guards entering thegame, went just 2-for-13.

January 16, 2010JVM Arena - - Jacksonville, Fla.Belmont Bruins 35 31 66Jacksonville Dolphins 35 47 82

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. - - Belmont men's basketballthreatened to snag a key conference win, but a big run inthe final seven minutes propelled host Jacksonville to an82-66 victory Saturday. Coming off their lowest single-game scoring output in nine years, the Bruins came outpurposeful and focused. Five quick points off the benchfrom Keaton Belcher gave Belmont a 12-10 lead sevenminutes in. Jordan Campbell and Belcher then tacked ontwo more treys as the lead grew to 25-18 with 6:22 left inthe half. But after holding North Florida to 26 percentshooting Thursday, the Bruins shouldered a series of con-tested Jacksonville makes late in the half. Behind twothree-pointers from Ben Smith, the Dolphins took a 30-29lead with 3:05 in the half. But consecutive tough layinsfrom Kerron Johnson and Jon House helped the Bruinstie the score at 35 at halftime. It was a strange feeling athalftime, as the Bruins had played an outstanding open-ing 20 minutes but had no lead to show for it. Belmontshot 41 percent (11-for-27) from the field, but went 9-for-10from the free throw line and outrebounded the Dolphinsby one. But after minimizing mistakes and attacking thefull court Jacksonville pressure defense for scores in thefirst half, the Bruins started the second half inauspicious-ly. Three turnovers and three interior misses sparked theDolphins into transition and ultimately a 41-35 lead. But asteal and baseline driving layin from Campbell and onefree throw from Brandon Baker helped Belmont stem thetide and settle back in. A confident deep three-pointerfrom Ian Clark tied the score at 43 with 15:08 left. ButChris Rozier answered with his first trey of the season toput Jacksonville back on top. Behind the play of LehmonColbert and a baseline three-pointer from Ayron Hardy,the Dolphins claimed a 57-49 lead with 11:16 left.But theyouthful Bruins kept fighting. With a series of defensivestops and six different Bruins scoring, Belmont capped a12-2 run on a basket from Trevor Noack to go ahead 61-59with 7:17 to go. However, it turned sour from there. Fivepoints from Colbert and offensive rebound baskets fromTravis Cohn and Szymon Lukasiak put Jacksonvilleahead 68-62 with 4:29 left. After Scott Saunders answeredwith a tough left-handed basket, Hardy sank a runningfloater and Smith added a long jumper to give theDolphins a 75-64 lead with 1:56 to go.Though Belmont gotpromising looks down the stretch and fought valiantly tothe final horn, the Bruins went just 2-for-13 from the fieldin the final seven minutes, including six straight missesfrom behind the arc.

January 21, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Campbell Camels 30 25 55Belmont Bruins 30 36 66

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Behind Keaton Belcher's 17 pointsand 5-for-6 performance beyond the arc, the Bruinsreturned to the winning column on Thursday night at theCurb Event Center by defeating conference leaderCampbell, 66-55. Belmont snapped an unfamiliar threegame conference losing steak, which was the longest since2002 when the Bruins lost four straight Atlantic Sungames as a first-year member. The win could not havecome at a better time as the Bruins are in the midst ofplaying four of the top teams in the conference standings;Jacksonville, Campbell, ETSU and Lipscomb. "When youlose seven of nine, you start losing confidence," headcoach Rick Byrd said. "What we haven't lost is the dailyeffort and effort in games. To go to the line and makefree throws that we needed to make really built our confi-dence moving forward." In the last five minutes, Belmontdrained 13-of-16 free throws which accounted for all ofBelmont's points during that period. Freshman Ian Clarkwas the last to make a field goal with 5:13 left in the sec-ond half, putting the Bruins up five. Shooting 22-of-27from the line tonight, the Bruins have knocked down 78percent of their free throws in the last two games. Belcherdrained his first five three-point field goals to tie a sea-son-high and recorded double-digit points for the firsttime since Dec. 5 this season at Mercer. It also markedthe first start in the last six games for the Butler, Ky.,native who only played 22 minutes after recording fourfouls. "It is great for our team and great for Keaton thathe broke out of his slump," Byrd said. "He is not going tobe 5-for-6 every time, but if he is a threat every time thenwe are a better basketball team. If he doesn't do that, andwe don't make free throws, then it is a very poor offen-sive game. We have got to keep getting better there."Sophomore Mick Hedgepeth recorded his third double-double of the season with 12 points and 12 rebounds whileshooting 10-of-14 from the free throw line. Hedgepeth'shard work on the boards helped Belmont out-reboundCampbell, 43-28. Campbell (11-6, 6-2 A-Sun) came intoThursday's matchup as winners of five of the last sixgames with sole possession of first place in the A-Sun.The Fighting Camels shot 50 percent from the field in thefirst half but the Bruin defense buckled down to hold theCamels to 7-of-26 shooting from the field in the secondhalf. When the final buzzer rang, Belmont held Campbellits lowest shooting percentage during the conference sea-son at 37.5 percent.

January 23, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.ETSU Buccaneers 22 67 89Belmont Bruins 44 56 100

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - In one of its strongest per-formances of the season, Belmont men's basketball ledwire-to-wire in defeating ETSU Saturday, 100-89. In theirsecond leg of a three-game conference homestand, theBruins once again brought focused, communicative teamdefense to the table from the opening tip. An acrobaticlayin from Jon House off a timely feed from KerronJohnson gave Belmont a 6-0 lead just over three minutesin. After ETSU clawed within one, Jordan Campbellburied consecutive three-point field goals as Belmontwent ahead 12-5 six minutes in. A straight-on trey fromIan Clark and two free throws from Mick Hedgepethstretched the lead to 21-10 midway through the first half.As Belmont continued to force ETSU into uncomfort-able, contested shots in the halfcourt, the Bruins showedgreat patience and unselfishness in attacking the Bucdefense. Two three-pointers from Drew Hanlen high-lighted a 16-3 Bruin run late in the first half to extend themargin to 40-18. The Bruins led 44-22 at halftime. It washigh marks all around for Belmont in the opening 20 min-utes: 52 percent (11-for-21) shooting - including eightthree-point field goals, a 22-to-13 rebounding advantage,while holding ETSU to 26 percent shooting. Hedgepethkept the momentum going into the second half with twoquick field goals. Then following a Micah Williamsjumpshot, Clark poured in eight points in a 90 secondspan give Belmont a 56-31 lead with 14:31 left. TrevorNoack and Hanlen each added treys before ScottSaunders scored an interior basket to provide the Bruins a69-37 lead with 11:45 to go. After a near-flawless first 31minutes, from there, the youthful Bruins seemed to take abrief mental vacation. A convergence of unsavory ball-handling, poor decision-making, quick shots and missedfree throws characterized the final nine minutes.Concurrently, ETSU's group of talented players playedhard to the very end and caught fire from all angles.Though the outcome had long been settled, the Bucsshaved roughly two-thirds from the Bruin lead. GivenETSU pressed and fouled to extend the game, numerousstatistical oddities resulted: Belmont registered its ninth100-point game of the NCAA era and first since Dec. of2007. Moreover, the Bruins attempted a program-record 50free throws, including 29 in the second half. Lastly, the 123combined points scored in the second half eclipsed thetotal points for 14 Atlantic Sun games this year.

January 26, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Lipscomb Bisons 31 47 78Belmont Bruins 32 40 72

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - In another classic `Battle ofthe Boulevard' game, Belmont men's basketball wasnipped in the final two minutes by Lipscomb Tuesdaynight, 78-72. A Keaton Belcher layin on a transition feedfrom Drew Hanlen upped the margin to 13, 52-39, with12:33 remaining. But after a Lipscomb timeout, JoshSlater again seized control. He scored seven points dur-ing a quick 11-0 run that got Lipscomb within 52-50 with9:28 left. Campbell and Clark then answered with three-pointers as Belmont bumped the lead back to six, 60-54,with 7:25 left. Belmont committed its seventh team foulwith over nine minutes left in regulation, allowingLipscomb the opportunity to score from the charitystripe. But following the under four media timeout,Slater made both ends of a one-and-one free throw tripto cut the lead back in half. Again the Bruins supplied ananswer; Hanlen fed Belcher for an easy two and a 69-65lead with 3:37 left. Then after Mick Hedgepeth came upwith a steal on defense, Campbell rimmed out a cleanlook at three to extend the lead to seven. Hodzic pro-ceeded to steal the ball on the subsequent rebound andscore for Lipscomb as the score went back to two, 69-67,with 2:49 remaining. Following a timeout, Campbelldrove the lane, but his contested layin rimmed off.However, as Belcher and Lipscomb's Brian Wrightfought for the rebound, the ball bounced off Wright'sarm and into the basket. The Bruins led 71-67 with 2:14left. After such a hustle play and fortuitous bounce, itappeared it might be the Bruins' night. But amazingly,that would prove to be Belmont's final field goal of thegame. Following a Lipscomb timeout, Hodzic got deepposition on Hedgepeth and scored a tough interior bas-ket to make the score 71-69 with 2:02 remaining. Belmontworked the next offensive possession late into the shotclock before Clark drove the lane and lost the handle. Ashe fought to regather the ball, he was called for a looseball foul on Hodzic. With the Bisons in the doublebonus, Hodzic sank both free throws to tie the game at71 with 1:26 left. Hanlen would miss a short wing jump-shot on Belmont's next possession, giving Lipscomb thechance to take its first lead since the early moments ofthe second half. After receiving a pass under the goalfrom a driving teammate, Hodzic was rejected at the rimby Campbell but a body foul was called. Hodzic proceed-ed to make one free throw to give the Bisons a 72-71 leadwith 49 seconds left. The Bruins then freed Clark for anice three-point look in front of the Bruin bench, but hisshot narrowly rimmed out and Lipscomb's Jacob Arnettwas fouled on the rebound. Like Slater and Hodzicbefore, Arnett sank both free throws to extend theBisons' lead to three with 28 seconds left. Strangely onthe inbounds pass, Brian Wright fouled Hanlen, givingBelmont a chance to score with the clock stopped.Hanlen sank the first of one-and-one free throws, butmissed the second. Brandon Baker claimed a clutchoffensive rebound to give the Bruins another opportuni-ty to tie or take the lead.But after Baker passed the ball back outside, Hanlenmysteriously took a wing three-pointer before the Bruinslooked to run set offense. His shot rimmed off andLipscomb gathered the rebound. Arnett and Hodzic each

BUIES CREEK, N.C. - - The weather outside may havebeen frightful, but the Bruins' play was so delightful.Belmont men's basketball braved the wintry conditions todeliver a virtuoso performance in defeating CampbellSaturday, 75-50. Belmont used a combination of solidhalfcourt defense and efficient offense in earning a secondvictory over Campbell in nine days. Through the first 10minutes, not a soul could have foreseen a one-sided affair.Both teams appeared engaged and forceful defensivelyand points proved hard to come by. But after PrestonDodson gave Campbell a 10-9 lead seven minutes in, theBruins received three-point field goals from KeatonBelcher and Brandon Baker to build a 17-11 lead. CoachByrd would call a variety of numbers early; in fact, all 11Bruins who dressed out for the game appeared within thefirst eight minutes. Baker and Adam Barnes would eachmake huge contributions. After a Junard Hartley basket,Baker capped a 9-2 Belmont run with another three-pointfield goal as the Bruin lead grew to 26-15 with 5:35 left inthe half. Kyle Vejraska got Campbell within 26-21, beforethe Bruins closed the half on a 14-2 spurt. After a conven-tional three-point play from Kerron Johnson, Ian Clarkburied consecutive three-pointers. Belcher added anothertrey to send the Bruins to the locker room up 17, 40-23.It was a remarkable first half for Belmont by any meas-ure; the Bruins shot 57 percent (12-for-21) from the field -including 7-for-14 from three-point distance. Belmont alsoheld Campbell to 38 percent shooting and was plus-eighton the boards. The Camels scored the first four points ofthe second half before Belmont ripped off a 13-0 run tobreak free.

February 1, 2010MSHA Athletic Center - - Johnson City, Tenn.Belmont Bruins 33 41 74ETSU Buccaneers 30 37 67

JOHNSON CITY, TENN. - - Belmont men's basketballdug deep and showed poise in holding off a final flurry todefeat East Tennessee State Monday night, 74-67. Afterfalling behind 4-0, Belmont got five points from KeatonBelcher and four points from Mick Hedgepeth to seize an11-6 lead five minutes in. The lead seesawed back andforth as each team earned scores against stern halfcourtdefense. A Belcher deep three gave the Bruins a 15-14 leadbefore ETSU scored eight unanswered points to claim aseven point edge. But the youthful Bruins would battleback, holding ETSU to just one field goal over the nextsix minutes. Another Belcher score, followed by secondeffort baskets from Hedgepeth and Jon House lifted theBruins to a 31-28 lead late in the half. Belmont led 33-30 athalftime. The Bruins appeared to be on a mission to openthe second half, as baskets from Hedgepeth and Housestretched the lead to seven. Both teams sprinkled in somesloppy open court play out of the locker room, as bothBelmont and ETSU squandered opportunities. TheBruins held ETSU scoreless for three and a half minutesuntil Tommy Hubbard cut the margin to 37-32 with 16:30left. Following a Jarvis Jones floater, Belcher and DrewHanlen each buried triples before Hedgepeth chipped inanother offensive rebound score to increase the Bruin leadto 13, 47-34, with 12:44 left. Belmont's solid, unified half-court defense made the Bucs labor for points and extin-guished the life out of the home crowd. After two freethrows from Kerron Johnson, Ian Clark stole the ball anddrilled a deep three-pointer to extend the lead to 62-45with 7:08 left. But much like the Jan. 23 meeting, the Bucswould supply a major push; this time one that would putthe outcome in jeopardy. A Sheldon Cooley three-pointerand two quick interior baskets from Isiah Brown trimmedthe margin to eight, 63-55, with 4:01 remaining. Housewould make two huge free throws out of the under fourtimeout before ETSU battled on. The combination ofETSU free throws - scores with the clock stopped - cou-pled with poor Belmont decisions against Buc pressuremade a once comfortable working margin, precarious.Four points each from Hubbard and Jocolby Davis madethe score 65-63 with 2:25 to go. Following a Bruin timeout,Clark had a pass intercepted by Cooley. The Bucs wereracing downcourt on a 3-0 break poised to tie the score at65. But just as the roof was about to blow off the MSHAAthletic Center courtesy Buc cheers, Cooley blew theopen-court slam dunk. Hanlen gathered the rebound andset up the Belmont offense. Hedgepeth proceeded to grabone of the biggest offensive rebounds of his young career,cleaning up a Hanlen missed trey and laying it in to givethe Bruins a 67-63 lead with 1:22 remaining. Belmont thenforced Jones into a contested three-pointer, whichrimmed off and was gathered in by Kerron Johnson.Johnson was fouled on the play and made two free throwsto increase the lead to 69-63 with 1:03 left. The Bruinswould handle ETSU pressure and make five of six freethrows in the final 40 seconds to secure the victory.

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - In a contest dripping withpostseason intensity, Belmont men's basketball defeatedJacksonville Friday night, 73-70. A frenetic, uptempogame developed early on, as both teams showed little shy-ness in attacking on offense. The Dolphins showcasedtheir defense and transition game in building a 27-19 leadwith 7:06 left in the half. One Lehmon Colbert free throwput the Dolphins ahead 31-24 with 4:15 left in the half. Yetbehind the emotional play of Kerron Johnson and moresolid interior play from Hedgepeth and Saunders, theBruins closed the half on a 10-0 run in taking a 34-31 leadto the locker room. A conventional three-point play fromHedgepeth stretched the lead to six before the Dolphinsused an 8-2 run to tie the score at 39 with 15:42 left.However, each time Jacksonville made a run, the Bruinsanswered back. Two buckets each from Hedgepeth andSaunders and a driving layin from Jon House gaveBelmont a 50-42 edge with 11:16 remaining. Jacksonville'sstrong offensive rebounding and fine individual play keptthem around, as a Travis Cohn second-chance basketmade the score 57-50 with 6:49 to go. But Clark andHanlen quickly replied with consecutive three-point fieldgoals to give the Bruins their largest lead of the night, 12,63-51, with 5:53 left. Yet as long as Jacksonville has BenSmith, it is never out of a game. The senior guard scoredseven quick points in succession, and when Ayron Hardyadded a steal and driving layin, the Dolphins were sud-denly within three, 63-60, with 3:06 remaining. Clarkstemmed the tide with a gigantic, conventional three-point play in breaking Dolphin full court pressure to pushthe lead back to six. But one Colbert free throw and twomore from Smith inched the Dolphins back within 66-63with 1:47 remaining.

Amidstthe cheers of Bruin fans after the Clark make,Jacksonville raced back downcourt and received a tough,contested basket from Tevin Galvin to get within 69-65with 1:00 left. The Bruins then proceeded to turn the ballover on the subsequent inbounds play, breathing evenmore life into the Dolphin comeback effort. But Smithmissed a contested three-point field goal attempt onJacksonville's next possession. Hedgepeth made two freethrows to make the score 71-65 with 34 seconds left. Thenafter another empty Dolphin trip, Johnson was fouledwith 19 seconds remaining. But after making eight of hisfirst 11 free throw attempts in the game, Johnson surpris-ingly missed both free throws to keep it a two possessiongame. Colbert then buried a deep wing three-pointer withnine seconds left to get Jacksonville within 71-68. After atimeout, Belmont inbounded the ball to senior and teamcaptain Keaton Belcher who, after being fouled, calmlysank two free throws with seven seconds left to giveBelmont a five point lead.

February 7, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.UNF Ospreys 26 30 56Belmont Bruins 35 35 70

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - Behind a career-high tying 31points from Ian Clark, Belmont men's basketball defeatedNorth Florida Sunday, 70-56. A short jumper from BradHaugabrook gave the Ospreys a 2-0 lead 31 seconds in.But when Clark answered 21 seconds later with a deepthree-pointer, the Bruins would not trail again. Moreover,the shot served as a precursor of things to come offensive-ly for Clark. Two more triples in a 22 second spanincreased the Bruin lead to 11-2 two and a half minutes in.Belmont defense into Clark offense forced North Floridahead coach Matthew Driscoll into calling two timeouts inthe first five minutes of the game. A steal from KerronJohnson and a driving layin from Jon House highlighteda 9-0 Belmont run that extended the lead to 22-9 with12:20 left in the half. But just as Belmont appeared on theverge of breaking free, the Ospreys hunkered down andworked back into the game. Switching defenses and theshooting of Jerron Granberry got North Florida within 31-26 with 1:46 in the half. But two timely baskets fromMick Hedgepeth sent the Bruins to the locker room upnine, 35-26. It was a strange first half box score, as Clark's16 and Hedgepeth's 10 accounted for all but nine of theBruin points. Belmont forced 10 North Florida turnovers,but the Bruins were outrebounded by two and failed toattempt one first half free throw. Following a dartingbank shot from House to open the second half scoring,Clark ripped the nets from long distance twice more toextend the lead to 43-27 with 17:08 left. But an Eni Cukatrey capped a quick 8-0 Osprey run to cut the lead in half.North Florida inched within seven, 47-40, on two DavidJuene free throws before Clark rang the bell once more.Three-pointers numbers eight and nine for the freshmanfrom Memphis stretched the lead back to 58-44 with 8:44remaining. Having scored 31 of Belmont's 58 points tothat point, Clark received a standing ovation as he wassubstituted out moments later. Belmont's defenseremained stout, and Johnson and Hedgepeth carried thescoring torch from Clark in the final stretch as NorthFlorida would not get closer than 14 points the remainderof the game. After putting on a remarkable shooting dis-play in the first 31 minutes, Clark would only attempt onetwo point field goal the rest of the way. All told, theBruins shot 46 percent (26-for-56) from the field - includ-ing 13-for-27 from three-point distance. Belmont forced 20North Florida turnovers.

February 13, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Belmont Bruins 36 34 70USC Upstate Spartans 30 27 57

SPARTANBURG, S.C. - - This redefines team victory.After enduring an adventurous 36 hours through MotherNature's complete winter arsenal, Belmont men's basket-ball dug deep and earned a 70-57 victory at USC UpstateSaturday night. Due to the winter storm that struck theMid South, the Bruins spent 20 straight hours on theteam bus Friday into Saturday morning as Interstate 85 inNortheast Georgia was shutdown. Arriving inSpartanburg shortly before noon eastern time, the Bruinstook quick naps, ate team meal, and proceeded to deliveranother strong, workmanlike road performance. Perhapsmore mentally fatigued than anything else, Belmont fellbehind 6-0 and did not get on the board until a floaterfrom Ian Clark more than three minutes in. Behind eightquick points from center Nick Schneiders - and eightBruin turnovers in the first nine minutes - the Bruins fellbehind 14-5. But much like its previous two trips to theHodge Center, Belmont swung momentum behindinspired team defense and rebounding. A baseline three-pointer from Kerron Johnson highlighted a 14-2 run whichgave the Bruins a 19-16 lead. The lead would grow to four,24-20, with 4:42 left in the half on a nice transition basketfrom Jon House on a feed from Clark. A driving Johnsonlayin would stretch the lead to eight, 36-28, before RyanLegates scored in the final seven seconds to send Belmontto the locker room up six. Both teams shot over 50 per-cent from the field in the first half, with Johnson's nineand Clark's eight pacing the Bruins. Schneiders andMezie Uzochukwu each scored 10 first half points forUSC Upstate. After Belmont scored 19 points off ofSpartan turnovers in the first half, points would provemuch harder to come by for both sides in the second half.A Pat Posey three-pointer got USC Upstate within 38-34with 18:16 left, before Mick Hedgepeth and Clarkanswered with baskets. Schneiders almost single-handed-ly kept the Spartans within reach with efficient post scor-ing, before Drew Hanlen and Clark buried consecutivethree-pointers to give the Bruins their largest lead, 12, 55-43, with 8:59 left. Head coach Rick Byrd kept the Bruinsfresh, rotating players in and out and getting solid pro-duction with every substitution. But just as Belmontappeared poised to take complete control, a series of shotsrimmed out and offensive rebounding effort plays wouldgo unrewarded at the rim. After a baseline trey fromLegates got the Spartans within 57-50 with 5:31 left, Housequickly struck back, finishing a Bruin press break with astrong conventional three-point play over the 7-3Schneiders to push the lead back to ten points. Pat Poseywould again get USC Upstate within seven, 60-53, on awing three-pointer. After an exchange of defensive stops,Clark supplied the Bruins with a vital basket, puttinghome his own miss and increasing the lead to 62-53 with1:55 to go. Clark would go 5-for-6 from the free throw linein the final 1:03 to seal the victory.

February 18, 2010Curb Event Center - - Nashville, Tenn.Belmont Bruins 32 47 79Stetson Hatters 29 41 70

DeLAND, FLA. - - Trailing by eight with seven minutesremaining, Belmont men's basketball closed the game ona 24-7 run to defeat Stetson Thursday, 79-70. The Bruins,winners of five consecutive games coming in, had wonnine of their last 10 meetings with Stetson. But the hostHatters rode a career night from A.J. Smith in defeatingBelmont in DeLand a year ago. And this night, Smithwould be heard from again. Early on, both teams broughtsolid halfcourt defense to the table as a seesaw affairdeveloped. The lead changed hands eight times in thefirst 10 minutes as neither team would lead by more thanthree points early. After Ridge Graham gave Stetson a 20-18 lead, Belmont scored 10 unanswered points to take amodicum of control. Five different Bruins scored duringthe run - Ian Clark, Brandon Baker, Jordan Campbell,Mick Hedgepeth, and Jon House - as the Bruins went up28-20 with 3:39 left in the half. Though Hedgepeth andHouse would score late in the half, the Hatters inchedwithin 32-29 at halftime. After Smith tied the game 48seconds into the second half, Clark buried two straighttriples to keep the Bruins on top. Moments later,Campbell provided a timely three-pointer to put Belmontup 41-35 with 16:18 left. Following another tough Smithdrive, Scott Saunders scored in the post before Clarkswooped to the hoop for a nice conventional three-pointplay and a 46-37 Bruin lead with 14:25 to go. Stetson cutthe lead in half before Drew Hanlen sank a wing three-pointer to put the Bruins ahead 50-42 with 12:46 remain-ing. But behind Smith and Ridge Graham, Stetson madea significant - borderline "in-the-zone" - run.

FORT MYERS, FLA. - - Belmont men's basketballdropped an 85-80 decision at FGCU Saturday. Much likeThursday night at Stetson, the Bruins got off to a slowstart. Three turnovers and eight quick points from ReedBaker dug Belmont an early 10-4 hole. After four pointsfrom Mick Hedgepeth and another clutch three-pointerfrom Campbell, Jonny Rice closed the half with a deter-mined drive and finish at the rim to send the Bruins tothe locker room up six, 38-32. Following the inspired driveby Rice to end the half, one would have thought Belmontwould storm out of the gates to open the second half andseize control. That did not transpire. Seven empty offen-sive trips to open the second half - two turnovers, twomissed free throws and four missed shots - allowed theEagles to go on an 8-0 run and take a 40-38 lead with 16:21left. The Bruins would answer with threes from Clarkand Campbell and a driving layin from Kerron Johnsonto reclaim a 47-42 edge with 13:45 remaining. Hedgepethpicked up three fouls in a 28 second span midway throughthe second half to force him to the bench. Brandon Bakerscored an interior basket before Hanlen sank a wingthree-pointer to get Belmont within 59-58 with 6:25 left.Moments later, Hedgepeth committed his fifth personalfoul and left the game with 6:09 to go. But, two Hanlenfree throws and a strong post finish from Scott Saunderstied the score at 65 with 4:02 left. Chambers made twomore free throws to increase the FGCU lead to 69-65 with3:19 left. Belmont then freed Clark for a nice baselinethree-point attempt, but the shot rimmed off. Behindplays from Johnson and Baker, the Bruins got it within aone possession game five times in the final 2:12, but thehost Eagles answered each time. Sherwood Brown provid-ed two clutch offensive rebound baskets off FGCUmissed jumpers, and the Eagles closed the game making 15consecutive free throws. Belcher’s potential game-tyingthree-pointer with 10 seconds left rimmed off. Brown wasfouled on the rebound and he made both free throws toprovide the final margin.

NASHVILLE, TENN. - - In a game whose intensity anddrama served as a precursor to 'March Madness,' Belmontmen's basketball outlasted Mercer Thursday night, 77-73.As both teams fought for every loose ball and longrebound, a three-pointer from Kerron Johnson and anoth-er driving layin from House increased the Bruin marginto eight, 26-18, with 7:22 left in the half. Yet behind thedrives of Jeff Smith and the three-point shooting of MarkHall, Mercer replied with a spirited 12-0 run to seize a 30-26 lead. Two Brian Mills free throws bumped the Bearedge to 34-28, before Jordan Campbell took over the finalthree minutes of the half. Playing like a man possessed,Campbell scored eight points and grabbed two steals, thelast of which set up a buzzer-beating runner from DrewHanlen. Behind Campbell's efforts, the Bruins closed thehalf on a 10-0 spurt to take a 38-34 lead to the locker room.Brandon Baker would score in traffic off of a nice postfeed from Saunders. Perhaps of greater note, Mercer bigman Daniel Emerson would pick up his fourth personalfoul on the play. Baker completed the conventional three-point play to give the Bruins a 60-56 lead with 7:36remaining. Campbell would then bury a wing three-pointer and Hedgepeth tacked on two free throws toincrease the Bruin cushion to 65-58 wit 5:13 left. But layinsfrom Emerson and Smith and a straight-on triple fromBrandon Moore would tie the score at 65 with 3:29 to go.Hedgepeth would answer with an easy layin off a nicesetup from Clark. Following an exchange of defensivestops, Belcher ripped the nets from long distance from infront of the Bruin bench to extend the lead to 70-65 with2:00 left. Emerson cut into the lead with two free throwsbefore Clark had a promising layin attempt blocked at therim by Moore. But in transition, Smith would lose thehandle and turn the ball back over to the Bruins. Belmontproceeded to work the clock under one minute, and late inthe shot clock, turn to Kerron Johnson. Johnson's drivingshot rimmed off, but Hedgepeth corralled the biggestrebound of the game for the Bruins and passed the ballback outside for a new shot clock. Mercer was forced tofoul Clark with 37 seconds left, and he made one freethrow to stretch the lead to 71-67. Smith rapidly drove thelane and was fouled with 30 seconds left. He made thefirst free throw but missed the second. Hanlen grabbedthe rebound for Belmont and was quickly fouled. Hanlenmade both free throws to give the Bruins a 73-68 leadwith 27 ticks to go.

Hanlenwas fouled on the subsequent inbounds play and he againmade both free throws to push the lead back to four.Moore then scored on a tip slam with nine seconds left toinch Mercer within 75-73.

March 4, 2010University Center - - Macon, Ga.Belmont Bruins 44 37 81Mercer Bears 38 49 87

MACON, GA. - - Belmont men's basketball left it all onthe floor Thursday night at host Mercer in the AtlanticSun Quarterfinals, but in the latest in a series full of nailbiters, the Bears took an 87-81 decision. The game markedthe sixth meeting between Belmont and Mercer over thepast two years, with the previous five games all goingdown to the wire. The Bruins won four of those five con-tests, including 65-64 in last year's Atlantic SunTournament. With a vocal University Center crowdready to cheer on the Bears, Belmont quickly showcasedthe form that has made it one of the nation's best roadteams over the last five seasons. Behind unselfish playand crisp passing, the Bruins made their first five three-point field goal attempts in building a 21-9 lead seven-plusminutes in. Two interior baskets from Scott Saundersincreased the lead to 26-12 with 10:31 left in the half. JamesFlorence capped a lightning quick 12-0 Mercer run with adeep three-pointer to make the score 33-32. But the Bruinsstayed strong and did not relinquish the lead heading tohalf. The Bruins led 44-38 at the break. Belmont openedthe second half well, as a determined screen-and-roll playsaw Clark feed Hedgepeth for an easy layin and a 46-38lead. But unfortunately for the Bruins, the most activemember of the team in the second half would be headathletic trainer Paul Malloy. On Belmont's first defensivepossession of the second half, a Mercer player would fallinto Hedgepeth's right leg. The team's leading rebounderand field goal percentage shooter would be quickly attend-ed to by athletic trainers from both teams, before eventu-ally easing towards the Bruin sideline. As Malloy workedon Hedgepeth in the tunnel area, Belmont pressedonward. A layin from Saunders, a three-pointer fromHanlen, two free throws from Brandon Baker and a con-ventional three-point play from Clark accounted for a 10-2Belmont run and a 56-43 lead with 16:40 left. But againFlorence sparked a Mercer reply. A deep three-pointerand an offensive rebound basket from Brandon Mooreinched the Bears within 60-55 with 12:06 remaining. Then,just as Malloy was completing his assessment ofHedgepeth's injury, Belmont Jordan Campbell was struckin the face as both teams pursued a loose ball in the lane. Play was stopped, Campbell was forced to leave the gameand would not return. The loss of one of the Bruins' top

perimeter defenders and three-point shooters could not beunderestimated. Nevertheless, Belmont went up 62-55with 10:48 left on a putback from Keaton Belcher. An E.J.Kusnyer three-pointer and another Florence drive got theBears within 62-60. But effort plays from Jon House -first an offensive rebound basket and then a steal andsetup for a Clark layin - helped Belmont push back to a66-60 edge with 8:15 left. But Belmont's defense - theteam's calling card all season in leading the league in fieldgoal percentage defense and three-point field goal percent-age - was trumped by singular offensive play from theBears. Another deep wing trey from Florence and a con-ventional three-point play from Emerson tied the game at68 with 5:24 to go. With Belmont's offensive rhythmstunted by the injuries to Hedgepeth and Campbell, andfollowing an exchange of defensive stops, Jeff Smithmade a three-pointer to give Mercer its first lead of thegame, 71-68, with 4:19 left. Hanlen made two free throwsto get the Bruins within one with 3:18 to go, beforeEmerson scored off a high-low feed. Then after Hanlenrimmed out a wing three-pointer, Belmont fouled Smithattempting to get a steal. Smith made the first of two freethrows to extend to a 74-70 Bear lead, before missing thesecond. But Emerson grabbed a key offensive rebound togive Mercer another possession. As fate would have it,Emerson would close the possession with an interior bas-ket off a Smith feed to push the lead to 76-70 with twominutes left. On Belmont's next possession Belchermissed a three-point attempt, leading to a Florence end-to-end layin and a 78-70 lead with 1:33 left. But with theUniversity Center virtually coming apart at the seamswith noise and emotions, the Bruins kept fighting. Twofree throws from Kerron Johnson got Belmont within sixwith 1:26 left. Then after one Smith free throw, Housescored along the baseline to get the Bruins within 79-74with 1:16 left. Belmont head coach Rick Byrd utilized sub-stitutions and timeouts to maximize possessions for theBruins in the final 90 seconds. Mercer broke Bruin pres-sure and found Moore at the rim for a slam and an 81-74lead with 1:07 left. But Clark quickly answered with adeep three to make the score 81-77 with 59 seconds left.Then the Bruins forced Florence into a turnover andJohnson was fouled driving to the basket. He calmlymade both free throws to trim the margin to two with 43seconds to go. After Florence made one free throw, Houseagain scored along the baseline to get the Bruins backwithin 82-81 with 28 seconds left. Belmont nearly createda steal on subsequent full court pressure before foulingFlorence. He made two free throws to give Mercer athree-point lead. The Bruins proceeded to cross the time-line and call timeout with 15 seconds left to setup a finalplay. Belmont designed a play for Clark along the base-line, but three Mercer defenders rotated out and chal-lenged a potential game-tying three-point attempt. Clarkelected to fake and pass inside to a cutting Hedgepeth -who admirably re-entered the game late with a heavy legbrace, but was clearly not himself. The pass with 11 sec-onds left was tipped by Mark Hall and stolen by theBears. Mercer made three free throws in the final sevenseconds to provide the final margin.
