The start of the 2014-15 season for the LMU men’s basketball program and the Mike Dunlap era begins with the 2014 LMU CLassic presented by the Office of International Students and Scholars. The tournament opens with San Diego taking on Boise State at 3:30 pm, followed the season opener for the Lions against SE Missouri State at 6 pm. Both games will be live on the LMU Sports Network and all of LMU’s games this season can be heard live on KXLU 88.89 FM. LMU CLASSIC PRESENTED BY OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS AND SCHOLARS The Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) presents the 2014 LMU Classic as part of the month long celebration of WorldFest 2014. Come out and support the Lions with players representing Australia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Nigeria, Slovakia, Zambia, and – of course – the United States. Check out what is on tap as the Lions’ tip-off the Mike Dunlap era: FRIDAY, NOV. 14, 2014 Game 1: Boise State (visitor) vs. San Diego (home) - 3:30 pm Live Video: http://www.lmulions.com/collegesportslive/?media=468360 Statbroadcast: http://statb.us/b/68912 Game 2: SE Missouri St. vs. LMU – 6 pm Live Video: http://www.lmulions.com/collegesportslive/?media=468355 Statbroadcast: http://statb.us/b/68913 GameTracker: http://lmulions.cstv.com/gametracker/launch/?event=1366345&school=loyo&sport=mbaskbl& SATURDAY, NOV. 15, 2014 Game 3: SE Missouri St. (visitor) vs. San Diego (home) - 2:30 pm Live Video: http://www.lmulions.com/collegesportslive/?media=468361 Statbroadcast: http://statb.us/b/68914 Game 4: Boise St. vs. LMU – 5 pm Live Video: http://www.lmulions.com/collegesportslive/?media=468356 Statbroadcast: http://statb.us/b/68915 GameTracker: http://lmulions.cstv.com/gametracker/launch/?event=1366353&school=loyo&sport=mbaskbl& INSIDE THE LIONS • On March 12, 2014, Mike Dunlap returned home, coming back to his alma mater as the 26th head coach of the LMU men’s basketball program. In less than four months, the Lions had a new roster that included seven newcomers, just three players that played more than seven games together, 13 players from eight different countries and a coaching staff with over 70 years of combined head coaching experience at every level of basketball. • To get a jump start on the 2014-15 season, Dunlap and the Lions found a way to organize a 12-day training trip to Spain. The trip included a grueling training schedule before and during the trip, three games against local all-star teams and a fourth against the Angola National Team, who was training for the World Cup later that month. The result has the Lions coming together heading into the new season. With four walk-ons joining the roster in September, the Lions have 11 of 17 players who were not in LMU uniforms a year ago. An additional three - Ayodeji Egbeyemi, Godwin Okonji and Patson Siame - served sat out a year ago, giving them 14 of 17 players that did not see action a year ago (Egbeyemi played eight games before serving medical redshirt year). With youth everywhere on the roster, the Lions will lean on LMU Men’s Basketball • 2014-15 Game Notes • www.LMULions.com • #LMULions
