Coming off its first win under head coach Andy Enfield, FGCU returns to Alico Arena on Thursday night to host Southwest Athletic Conference (SWAC) member Prairie View A&M. The game will be the last at home before the Eagles head out on a four-game road swing to close the month of November. On Monday night, FGCU rebounded from its one-point season-opening loss at TCU by defeating Ave Maria, 79-65, in the home debut of Enfield. The Green and Blue were sparked by the backcourt play of junior SHERWOOD BROWN and freshman BRETT COMER, who combined for 36 points in the win.

Just a combined five players from the two teams are currently on this year's roster that played in the contest in 2009.
SECONDHALFSURGE
Led by the play of freshman point guard BRETT COMER, FGCU has overcome a sluggish first half in each game by averaging nearly 45 points over the final 20 minutes. Comer has been the catalyst to the second half turnaround, averaging 12.5 points over the span while passing out eight assists that have led to 21 more points. As a team, FGCU is shooting a scalding 65 percent (34-52) in the second half, including 10-of-17 from three-point land. Nine of the 10 FGCU players who have taken a shot in the final 20 minutes are shooting 50 percent or better.

SCORING Brett Comer 14.5 Sherwood Brown 13.5 Bernard Thompson 12.5
Predicted to finish seventh in the Southwest Athletic Conference (SWAC) preseason poll, Prairie View A&M is off to a 2-0 start after a pair of convincing victories at home. The Panthers, led by sixthyear head coach Byron Rimm II, welcome back three starters from last year's squad while also ushering a highly-anticipated 10 member recruiting class. All five starters through the first two games for the Panthers are members of the 10-player class, but the team's leading scorer is returning sophomore Demondre Champman, who has come off the bench to average 13.5 points per contest. Like the Eagles, Prairie View sports three players in double figures with junior college transfers Ryan Gesiakowski (12.5) and Jourdan DeMuynck (11.5) rounding out the double-digit scorers. The Panthers have also gotten good production from late signee Jules Montgomery, a 6-foot-11 forward from California. In the season opener against Schreiner University, Montgomery hauled in 12 rebounds and leads the team at a 8.5 per game clip. Through two games, Prairie View has grabbed 38 offensive rebounds leading to 41 second chance points and aiding in 102 points in the paint.

GAME3 VS. PRAIRIE VIEW A&M (NOV. 17)
LAST GAME: BROWN, COMER LEAD FGCU PAST AVE MARIA
(Box Score on Page 27) FORT MYERS, Fla. - Sparked by 15 second half points from freshman BRETT COMER and SHERWOOD BROWN’S 19 points off the bench, the FGCU men’s basketball team picked up its first win under head coach Andy Enfield against Ave Maria, 79-64, in front of 1,547 fans in the home opener at Alico Arena Monday night. • FGCU created its first real separation of the game midway through the final frame, going on a 17-2 run over a seven-minute period that took what was a six-point lead and turned it into a the largest edge of the game (21), 58-37, for the Eagles with 9:02 play. • Brown scored 10 of his 19 points in the first half, sinking 3-of-6 from three-point land, while also adding six rebounds and three steals. It was Comer’s turn in the second half, as the Winter Park, Fla. product reached double figures over the final 20 minutes alone for the second straight game. Comer finished 7-of-10 from the field for 17 points to go along with a game-high eight rebounds and four assists. • After shooting just 31 percent in the first half, the Eagles shot a sweltering 69 percent (18-26) from the floor in the second frame en route to 48 points. FGCU’s finished above 50 percent for the second consecutive contest with a 52 percent clip (31-60).
SWEET NOVEMBER
FGCU will play seven games over 17-day span to open the season. Out of those seven games, five will come on the road, including two trips to Texas. The last four games of the month will come away from home in Texas, Miami and Maryland.
D-1 TESTED & APPROVED
On August 12, 2011, all 14 of FGCU’s Division I sports became postseason eligible when the NCAA Division I Board of Directors approved the recommendation from the NCAA Division I Administration Cabinet to elect FGCU to Division I active membership. FGCU began its transition into Division I in 2007-08. The Eagles are now eligible for Atlantic Sun postseason play and NCAA Tournament.
NEW COACH NEW HOPES
On March 31st, the FGCU men’s basketball program got a new look for its 10th season in program history when ANDY ENFIELD was named head coach. Enfield, who spent the previous five years as an assistant with Florida State, is the second head coach in FGCU’s brief history. While at FSU, Enfield was a part of two teams that advanced to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen and back-toback clubs that lead the NCAA in defensive field goal percentage.
PRESEASON PREDICTIONS
MR. FEBRUARY
Junior SHERWOOD BROWN will be a key component to FGCU’s success under first-year head coach ANDY ENFIELD. Sparked by a career-high 26 points in the season finale at USC Upstate, Brown finished last February (10 games) with a 11.2 scoring average - more than four points above his season mark. Brown reached double figures in each of the final four games, averaging 18.3 points while leading the team in scoring three times. Through the first two games this season, Brown has carried that momentum over with an average of 13.5 points. The Orlando, Fla. product came off the bench for 19 points and six rebounds in the win over Ave Maria.
THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE
Despite having just four players over 6-foot-8, FGCU has one of the biggest players in the A-Sun Conference manning its frontline in 6-foot-10, 254-lb. forward KEVIN CANTINOL. The senior came on strong over the final 10 months of last season after becoming eligible mid-year after transferring from SEC foe Mississippi. Cantinol averaged 7.9 and 6.3 rebounds over the last 10 games despite making just four starts. Over the final 10 games, Cantinol led the team in rebounding five times and collected 27 offensive caroms.
YOUTH MOVEMENT
FGCU was predicted to finish in eighth place in both preseason Atlantic Sun polls voted on by the league coaches and media. The Eagles finished with a 7-13 mark in the A-Sun last season, which was good for seventh place and a spot in the postseason tournament, if they were eligible.
FGCU’s roster will not only have a new look on the sideline, but also on the court as first-year head coach Andy Enfield ushered in six new players. Included in the six newcomers are five freshmen, giving the Eagles a total of nine underclassmen. The talented freshmen class includes a quartet of guards and 6-foot-9 small forward FILIP CVJETICANIN from Croatia.
INSTANT IMPACT
A-SUN RANKED 17TH
FGCU's freshmen class has wasted little time making an impact, accounting for 47 percent of the scoring, 42 percent of the rebounds and 65 percent of the assists. Point guard BRETT COMER leads the team in scoring (12.5) and assists (4.5), while BERNARD THOMPSON leads the team in rebounding (6.0) and is third in scoring (12.5). As a class, the freshmen are shooting 55 percent (29-53) from the field.
BOMBS AWAY
Sophomore CHRISTOPHE VARIDEL ranked second in the A-Sun in three-pointers per game (2.6) in his rookie campaign, making total of 78 on the season. His 78 threes were the fifth-most by a freshman in the entire country and the fourth-best total in program history. Varidel made three or more trifectas in a game 16 times and accounted for 45 percent of the team’s long range makes on the year. The Versoix, Switzerland product finished second on the team in scoring (11.2) and was named to the A-Sun All-Freshmen squad.

The 10-member Atlantic Sun Conference was lauded by CBS College Sports as the 17th-best Division I men's basketball conference, according to the media outlet's preseason rankings. Last year, Belmont represented the A-Sun in the NCAA Tournament, while Jacksonville and ETSU played in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament.
YOUTH MOVEMENT
The second half of the 2010-11 season was a youth movement for the Eagles, as underclassmen led the team in scoring 18 of out the last 20 games. Then-freshman CHRISTOPHE VARIDEL was the catalyst, leading the team in scoring eight times over the 20 games. Redshirt sophomore ANTHONY BANKS, who transferred out, led the team in scoring six times over the span. Then sophomore SHERWOOD BROWN used a 26-point outing in the season finale at USC Upstate to cap a run of three of four games he led the team.

HEATING UP
After averaging 8.3 points over the first 15 games of his freshman season, CHRISTOPHE VARIDEL reached the double figure plateau 12 times over the final 15 games in which he averaged 14.7 points. Varidel's second half scoring surge helped him finish 17th in the A-Sun in scoring (11.5), good for third among league freshmen.
ON THE OFFENSIVE
Not equipped with a lot of size in the paint, FGCU made up for it by staying active on the offensive glass in 2010-11. The Eagles finished second in the A-Sun in offensive rebounds per game (13.2). FGCU has grabbed double figure offensive boards in 52 of its last 59 games (last 2 years), including 26 last season. The Green and Blue finished 2010-11 with a streak of eight straight games with double figure offensive caroms.
FGCU SIGNS DAJUAN GRAF ON FIRST DAY OF EARLY SIGNING PERIOD (NOV. 10) Just two nights before his first official game as FGCU men’s basketball coach, ANDY ENFIELD announced on Wednesday that DAJUAN GRAF (Charlotte, N.C./Phillip O. Berry Academy) has signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) on the first day of the early signing period and will join the Eagles in 2012-13. Graf, a 6-foot point guard, is a rising senior at Phillip O. Berry Academy where he has led the Cardinals to a 51-11 record and a pair of North Carolina Section 2A Championships over the last two seasons. “We’re excited to add a player of DaJuan’s caliber to our program,” said Enfield. “His quickness, ball-handling ability and decision-making skills are exactly what we are looking for in a point guard. We expect him to fit in well with our other talented players and look forward to him joining our FGCU family.” As a junior last season, Graf averaged a team-highs of 15.4 points, 3.7 assists and 2.7 steals per game en route to leading Phillip O. Berry Academy to a 27-3 record and its second straight N.C. Section 2A Championship. Graf was named the Rocky River Conference Player of the Year and an All-Western Region squad selection. His 15.4 points per game were fueled by 22 double figure outings and seven 20-point performances, including a career-high 36-point outing in the season opener against Garinger. A multi-faceted guard, Graf also average 4.5 rebounds, had three double-doubles, seven performances of six or more boards and reached the foul line 10 times in a game five times. “I couldn’t be happier for DaJuan,” said first-year Phillip O. Berry Academy head coach Carlton Anthony, who served as an assistant the previous three years. “He (DaJuan) is one of the best kids that I’ve ever had the privilege of coaching. As a point guard, he plays the game at a fast pace and possesses the ability to change direction with the ball in his hands. What really makes him special is his desire to play hard on both ends of the court.” Graf’s starting point guard duties began his sophomore season when he led the Cardinals to a 24-8 mark and the first of his two Section 2A Championships. He burst onto the scene by averaging 13.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.1 steals per contest. Graf reached double figures in 25 of 32 games, scoring 20 or more points three times to go along with a trio of double-doubles.

HEADCOACHANDYENFIELD BIO
Andy Enfield was appointed the second-ever head coach in Florida Gulf Coast men’s basketball history on March 31, 2011. Enfield will lead the program into its 10th season of existence and first as Division I postseason eligible in 2011-12. “It is with great pleasure that we welcome Andy, Amanda, and the rest of the Enfield family into FGCU, Southwest Florida, and our Eagles’ athletics family,” said Director of Athletics Ken Kavanagh. “A quality individual, Andy is a proven winner and brings to FGCU a tremendous wealth of experience and coaching success, on the both the collegiate and professional ranks. “In particular, he possesses a background of demonstrated commitment to excellence both on the court and in the classroom. In turn, we look forward to him providing energized daily leadership to our student-athletes, quickly getting engaged with our growing fan base and rapidly putting us in pursuit of the upper echelon of the Atlantic Sun Conference and beyond.” Enfield spent the previous five years as an assistant coach at Florida State, helping FSU to three consecutive NCAA Tournaments (2009-11), including the Sweet 16 in 2011. Enfield joined head coach Leonard Hamilton’s staff at Florida State in 2006. The Seminoles appearances in the last three NCAA Tournaments were the program’s first since 1998, as they accumulated 31 wins in ACC action over that span – second-most behind Duke – and advanced to the program’s first-ever ACC championship game in 2009. With three straight 20-win seasons to its credit, FSU advanced to the 2011 Sweet 16 in the Southwest Region by defeating No. 10 Texas A&M and No. 2 Notre Dame in Chicago. 14
Recruiting and player development were chief among Enfield’s responsibilities at FSU where its 2010-11 roster boasted 11 top 100 recruits and a pair of McDonald’s All-Americans. In 2009, Basketball Times named Enfield the nation’s “Most Visible Assistant Coach” for the summer recruiting period, while ESPN The Magazine donned him one of “Five Super Assistant Coaches in College Basketball” during the 2008-09 campaign. Enfield’s prowess on the recruiting trails helped the Seminoles produce three straight top 25 classes, highlighted by the 2008 group that ranked in the top 10. A former NBA assistant with the Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks, Enfield’s influence helped FSU develop five NBA draft picks over five seasons. Al Thornton (2007) and Toney Douglas (2009) were both selected in the first round and earned Associated Press All-American status while leading the ACC in scoring. In 2011, Chris Singleton became the Noles’ third first round pick in the last five years when the Washington Wizards took him with the 18th overall pick. A key ingredient to FSU’s success was its ability to play defense, as the Seminoles became the first team since the 1990-92 Georgetown clubs to lead the nation in defensive field goal percentage two straight seasons from 2009-11. In 2010-11, the Seminoles limited their opponents to 36.3 percent shooting from the field to lead the nation for the second year in a row. With Singleton and Douglas, FSU had the ACC Defensive Player of the Year in two of Enfield’s last three seasons, while 2010 NBA second round pick Solomon Alabi was runner-up.

Prior to his five years in Tallahassee, Enfield began his coaching career in the NBA from 1994-1996 where he served as the shooting coach for the Milwaukee Bucks and head coach Mike Dunleavy. While in Milwaukee, Enfield worked with four-time NBA All-Star Vin Baker and No. 1 overall pick Glenn Robinson. Enfield continued his NBA career as an assistant coach with the Boston Celtics under head coach Rick Pitino from 1998-2000. Enfield worked closely with then-rookie Paul Pierce who went on to win the 2008 NBA Finals MVP award. With the Celtics, Enfield increased his duties on the bench to developing game plans and scouting reports, assisting in practice strategies and offensive player development. Known for his shooting expertise, Enfield helped the Celtics shoot 74.5 percent from the free throw line in 19992000, a 5.3 percent increase from the previous year for the biggest improvement in the league. After his stint with the Boston Celtics, Enfield became a player development consultant for several NBA teams, while running his own company called “All Net Basketball” which focused on improving shooting technique and offensive skills. Over his time as a consultant and shooting instructor, Enfield coached more than 100 NBA players. During his collegiate playing career at Johns Hopkins University, Enfield set the all-time NCAA career free-throw percentage record with a mark of 92.5 percent (431-466). Enfield still holds nine career records at Johns Hopkins and was inducted into the school's Athletic Hall of Fame in 2001. He led the team in scoring in all four seasons en route to a program record 2,025 career points thanks to the top two single-season point totals in school history with 606 points in 1990 and 610 points in 1991.
As good as he was on the court, he was just as sharp in the classroom, as the economics major earned GTE Academic All-America first team honors as a senior and second team honors as a junior. He was the first basketball player at Johns Hopkins to earn an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and was named the NABC Scholar-Athlete of the Year in 1991. Enfield and his wife Amanda, have two daughters; Aila and Lily, and son, Marcum.

EXHIBITION
GAME 1
Nov. 5, 2011 at Alico Arena
Nov. 11, 2011 at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum
FGCU - 78 Saint Leo - 59
TCU - 73 FGCU - 72
FORT MYERS, Fla. - Behind a decisive 15-0 run midway through the second half and a 48 percent shooting night, the FGCU men’s basketball team defeated Saint Leo 78-59 in an exhibition game on Saturday at Alico Arena. Led by a game-high 16 points from senior KEVIN CANTINOL, (pictured) three FGCU players reached double figures and two more scored nine points to highlight the balanced scoring attack. Cantinol’s 16 points came on 8-of-12 from the field, while he also added a team-high eight boards. Freshman BERNARD THOMPSON added 14 points and sophomore CHRISTOPHE VARIDEL poured in 12 off the bench. The Eagles hit 31-of-65 from the field for the game, including 10-of-23 (44 percent) from long range as six different players registered a three-pointer. All nine of freshman Filip Cvjeticanin’s points came on threes (3-6), while Varidel and junior Sherwood Brown hit a pair of treys each. It was a game of runs, as the Eagles reeled off four scoring spurts of seven or more consecutive points finished off by the 15-0 run that turned a two-point lead, 48-46, with 11:01 on the clock into 63-46 advantage with 5:46 remaining. The FGCU defense was the difference during the decisive run, as the Eagles held the Lions without a point for eight straight possessions thanks to six turnovers. Thompson scored the opening five points and assisted on a three-pointer.
FORT WORTH, Texas - Despite trailing by as many as 16 early in the second half, FGCU fought all the way back and had several chances to take the lead in the final seconds, but came up short in a 73-72 seasonopening loss at TCU on Friday night at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum. Freshman point BRETT COMER quickly pushed the ball up the court and executed a dribble-handoff to Brown, who knocked down a three with 4.8 seconds on the clock to make it a one-point game, at 73-72. FGCU quickly fouled Thorn on the ensuing inbound pass after a timeout to put the All-Mountain West point guard at the foul line. Thorns’ front end of the 1-and-1 missed to the right and the rebound was tipped into the corner where FGCU failed to get off a desperation shot. Three different players reached double figures for the Eagles, led by freshman BERNARD THOMPSON’S (pictured) 15 points off the bench. Thompson poured in 11 of his 15 in the first half, while adding six rebounds and four assists. The catalyst of the second half comeback, Comer had a hand in 24 of FGCU’s 41 points in the final frame. Comer finished the game with 12 points and five assists with all but two of the points coming over the final 20 minutes. Sophomore CHASE FIELER turned in a clean stat line with 12 points on 4-of-4 from the field, including 3-for-3 from long range, five rebounds, four assists and two steals.

FGCU - 79 Ave Maria - 65
Nov. 14, 2011 at Alico Arena FORT MYERS, Fla. - Sparked by 15 second half points from freshman BRETT COMER (pictured) and SHERWOOD BROWN’S 19 points off the bench, FGCU picked up its first win under head coach Andy Enfield against Ave Maria, 79-64, in front of 1,547 fans in the home opener at Alico Arena Monday night. FGCU created its first real separation of the game midway through the final frame, going on a 17-2 run over a seven-minute period that took what was a six-point lead and turned it into a the largest edge of the game (21), 58-37, for the Eagles with 9:02 play. Brown scored 10 of his 19 points in the first half, sinking 3-of-6 from three-point land, while also adding six rebounds and three steals. It was Comer’s turn in the second half, as the Winter Park, Fla. product reached double figures over the final 20 minutes alone for the second straight game. Comer finished 7-of-10 from the field for 17 points to go along with a game-high eight rebounds and four assists. After shooting just 31 percent in the first half, the Eagles shot a sweltering 69 percent (18-26) from the floor in the second frame en route to 48 points. FGCU’s finished above 50 percent for the second consecutive contest with a 52 percent clip (31-60). FGCU took advantage of its superior size to own a 44-27 advantage on the backboard and a 34-16 edge in points in the paint.
