The Sabres are 8-0 inside the friendly confines of Sadoff Gymnasium this season and 16-3 since the beginning of last year. 2 FIVE GOOD MINUTES: Marian is now 3-0 in overtime games this season after defeating Northland Int’l and Edgewood in back-to-back overtime contests. 3 MAGIC NUMBER: The Sabres are 12-2 this season when scoring 70 points or more and have won six straight when reaching the mark. As a team, Marian is averaging 79 ppg in NACC play, which ranks fourth in the league. 4 WELCOME TO THE CLUB: Seniors Jeff Harris and Cody Veleke have already eclipsed the 1,000 career points milestone this season. Senior Sam Koslowski is also within reach, needing just 52 points to reach 1,000. Should he do so, Marian would be only the fourth known team to accomplish the feat since the 1996-97 season. 5 A LOOK AHEAD: Marian heads to Milwaukee to take on MSOE (Feb. 5) before returning home to try and exact revenge on their lone loss of the season against Aurora (Feb. 8).

@MarianUHoops BASKETBALL NOTES LAST TIME OUT The Sabres completed a difficult stretch of six games in 12 days with a perfect record. They took down Edgewood College for the fifth straight time, including the third straight in Madison and clinched a NACC tournament berth in the process. Marian used a balanced scoring effort led by 12 points from Sam Koslowski. The Sabres cut into a 10-point deficit to trail by just three points, 33-30, at halftime. They would lead by as many as eight in the second half before the host Eagles made a comeback of their own to force overtime, but Marian proved too tough in the extra session, going on to win its 12th in 13 games by a score of 67-63. Cody Veleke, Drew Binversie and Alex Stecker added 10 points each. The Sabres endured their second overtime game in three days and are now 3-0 in overtime games this season. SCOUTING THE WARRIORS Wisconsin Lutheran College is in the midst of a rough patch as it has dropped seven of its last eight games and 10-of-12 overall. The Warriors enter the week with a 5-12 record and a 3-10 mark in conference play. Their record doesn’t speak for how well they have played as nine of their 12 losses have been by single digits, including nine NACC defeats by four points or less. WLC has thrived in the rebounding department, averaging a league-best 41.2 rebounds per game, including more than 13 offensive caroms a contest. It ranks first in opponents’ field goal percentage (42.0) as well, while the Warriors’ downfall has been their shooting percentage, which stands at 41.2 percent and ranks 10th. Sophomore Jake Jarnigo leads the team with 13.8 points and 3.2 assists per game. Junior Kyle Stelse comes in at 11.8 ppg to go along with 5.5 rebounds per contest. Junior Brett Lubbe is pulling down a team-high 9.4 rebounds to go with 9.0 ppg. He also adds a team-best 52.7 shooting percentage. SERIES HISTORY The Sabres and Warriors will meet for the 54th time in the all-time series. The series was even at 26 games apiece coming into the year until Marian won its fourth straight meeting against WLC with an 84-82 overtime victory back on Dec. 5. The streak dates back to the 2010-11 season. In the first meeting of the season, the Sabres came from 10 points down in the first half to force overtime and outscored the Warriors, 18-16, in the extra period. Marian turned 13 WLC turnovers into 22 points and outscored the Warriors, 42-26, in the paint. Cody Veleke eclipsed 1,000 career points in the winning effort as he poured in 24 points and hauled in 11 rebounds. Sam Koslowski added 21 points, while Elan Solvik and Drew Binversie chipped in 13 points each. Jake Jarnigo tallied 22 points to lead four Warriors in double figures. A LOOK AT THE STARS Dominican University started the season 0-10, but has since won three of its last five games, including a 59-57 win on the road at Edgewood last time out. Prior to that, the Stars fell just short in a 77-75 defeat at home to perennial-power Aurora. Dominican ranks first in free throw percentage (73.2), but last in makes (12.2) and attempts (16.6) per game. The Stars are 10th in points per game (68.9) and opponents’ field goal percentage (46.7). Freshman Josh Mayberry leads four Stars averaging in double figures with 15.2 ppg and a team-best 3.4 assists per contest. Seniors Logan Harris and Taylor DeRoo come in at 13.8 and 13.5 ppg, respectively, while sophomore Ryan Risley chips in 12.5 ppg. Harris adds a team-high 8.1 rebounds per game. SERIES HISTORY The Sabres and Stars will meet for the 18th time on Saturday. Marian leads the all-time series, 10-7, and has won four of the last six meetings. In their last meeting on Nov. 30, the Sabres opened up conference play with a 71-63 victory over the Stars. Marian took a 33-27 lead into halftime and increased it by two despite Dominican turning the ball over just eight times and shooting over 49 percent from the field. Cody Veleke led all scorers with 20 points, while Sam Koslowski added 16. Montrell Hobbs chipped in 11 points, eight rebounds and four assists in 21 minutes off the bench. Josh Mayberry led the Stars with 18 points.

GAMES 19-20: WLC/DOMINICAN

OFFENSIVE EXPLOSION The Sabres scored 80 or more points in three consecutive games between Dec. 20, 2013Jan. 11, 2014, going 2-1 in that span. After falling to Aurora, 106-101, Marian rebounded with an 82-74 win over Benedictine (Jan. 4) and an 83-70 victory over Rockford (Jan. 11). It marked the first time the Sabres scored 80 or more points in three straight games since Dec. 4-16, 2007. In those three games, Marian defeated Lakeland, Concordia Wisconsin and Wisconsin Lutheran - all at home - on the way to a 15-11 overall record, including an 11-6 mark in conference play. So far this season, Marian has eclipsed 80 points six times and is averaging 76.8 ppg through 18 games. It’s the most a Marian team has averaged in a season since the 2007-08 season when the Sabres averaged 74.1 ppg and is 6.1 points more than last year’s squad.

Since the beginning of the 2012-13 season, Marian is 23-4 in games it has scored 70 points or more. 7-5 9-8 Since last season, the Sabres are 22-2 when tied or leading at halftime, including 11-0 this 7-7 9-10 season.

Harris eclipsed the milestone just before halftime of a 76-61 victory over Concordia Chicago at home Saturday, Dec. 14. Fellow senior Sam Koslowski is just 52 points away from becoming the third Sabre this year to reach the mark. He needs to average just 7.4 points per game over the final seven regular season games or would need just four more games if he maintained his 15.1 season average. If he does, Marian will have done what only three known teams have accomplished since the 1996-97 season by having three or more players reach the coveted milestone in the same season.

THE KEY TO VICTORY Marian is 11-0 this season when out-rebounding its opponents and holds a +3.0 margin on the year. In those wins, the Sabres are +103 on the glass combined compared to -28 on the short-end. Last season, the Sabres went 10-3 when out-rebounding their opponents and finished the year with a -0.7 rebound margin.

LAST OF THE NACC UNBEATENS The Sabres made it further than any other team in the NACC before losing its first 7 conference game, going 6-0 before a narrow 106-101 defeat at Aurora back on Dec. 20. 7:15 Now 7-1 to start NACC play, this year’s squad owns the best league start in program history since the league’s inception in 2006-07. In only his second year at the helm, Head Coach Mark Boyle led the 1989-90 team to a 10-0 start in the Lake Michigan Conference on the way to a 13-1 regular season Thursday, January 30 * Wis.

@MarianUHoops BASKETBALL NOTES WHAT IT REALLY “BOYLES” DOWN TO Head Coach Mark Boyle, who is in his 26th season at the helm of the Marian University men’s basketball program, has compiled 333 career victories and captured four conference championships on the Sabre sidelines. The Madison native took over the program in 1988-89 and led the team to a Lake Michigan Conference tournament championship. He arrived in Fond du Lac by way of UW-Green Bay, where he served as assistant under legendary coach Dick Bennett for three seasons. Boyle graduated from UW-Eau Claire. Boyle is currently the longest-tenured college coach in the state of Wisconsin. COMING BACK FOR MORE The Sabres feature 12 returners from their 2012-13 squad that finished 15-11 overall, 10-6 in the NACC, which was good enough for the fifth-best league mark. Five seniors highlight the slew of returners, including captains Sam Koslowski and 2012-13 First Team selection Cody Veleke. The entire projected starting lineup remains intact with a mix of youth and veteran leadership. Sophomores Alex Stecker and Drew Binversie made immediate impacts as freshmen last season, while junior Mike Keller is coming off his second straight season as the defensive backbone for the Sabres. Three seniors in James Bartelt, Jeff Harris and Elan Solvik will lead a talented bench that could emerge as one of the deepest in the NACC.

GAMES 19-20: WLC/DOMINICAN PRESEASON POLL The Marian University men’s basketball team was picked to finish third in the 2013-14 Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference Preseason Poll, voted on by the league’s coaches and sports information directors. The Sabres, who turned in the fifth-best regular season record a season ago with a 15-11 overall mark and a 10-6 league record, earned 184 poll points, including three of the 22 first-place votes handed out by the voters. Aurora was the selected as the preseason favorite, garnering 223 poll points, including 12 first-place votes. Lakeland was picked second with 211 poll points and seven first-place votes. 2013-14 NACC Preseason Coaches’ and SIDs’ Poll 1. Aurora (12), 223 7. Dominican, 120 2. Lakeland (7), 211 8.

A PROGRAM FIRST For the first time in school history, Marian had the opportunity to compete against an NCAA Division I institution in UW-Milwaukee in an exhibition contest back on Oct. 31. The game took place at the Panthers’ home arena, the U.S. Cellular Arena in downtown Milwaukee. The Sabres led for the first 10 minutes of the game before the Panthers imposed their will with un-matched size and athleticism en route to an 80-52 victory. Other Notable Division I vs. non-Division I match-ups that took place: • UW-Platteville men took on UW-Madison, Oct. 30. • NAIA’s Viterbo men traveled to UW-Green Bay, Nov. 3. • Rockford men played Northern Illinois, Nov. 2. • Concordia Chicago men competed at UConn, Nov. 4. • Wis. Lutheran’s women faced UW-Milwaukee, Nov. 3. • Division II Winona State took on UW-Madison, Nov. 3 • UW-Stevens Point women visited UW-Madison, Nov. 7. SCHEDULE The 2013-14 schedule will be as challenging as ever with four of Marian’s five non-conference games taking place on the road. Following a season opening home match-up with Martin Luther, which Marian needed double-overtime to get past a season ago, the final four non-league bouts will be played away from the friendly confines of Sadoff Gymnasium. The Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference has altered its format, getting away from two divisions to a single division format that features 22 conference games, which is six more than last season. All 12 teams will play each other twice followed by a sixteam league tournament slated to begin the final week in February. Marian University Athletic Communications • Sadoff Gymnasium • 45 S.

GAMES 19-20: WLC/DOMINICAN

2013-14 Season Preview

ew teams have the luxury of returning all five starters and fewer teams can say they have five seniors, who are proven contributors. Head Coach Mark Boyle has both as he prepares for what hopes to be a successful and exciting season at the helm of the Marian University men’s basketball program. Entering his 26th season, Boyle is the longest-tenured coach in the state of Wisconsin and believes this year may be the first time he returns all five starters to his lineup. The Sabres, who finished 15-11 in 2012-13, including a 10-6 mark in the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference, had the fifth-best record in the league, but were reduced to the eighth seed in the tournament due to seeding rules amidst the two divisions. Marian then fell to top-seeded Lakeland on the road in a disappointing finish to an otherwise successful season. “They know each other and they know what it takes to win,” Boyle said of his experienced squad. “We want to secure a tournament home game and, if things fall into place, this team could even be capable of being in the race for the regular season title.” For the first time since its inception in 2006, the NACC will introduce a new scheduling format that features a 20-game league schedule with all 11 teams playing each other twice under one division, followed by an eight-team postseason tournament. Looking to guide this senior laden squad is guard Sam Koslowski (Neenah, Wis./St. Mary’s Central), who has emerged as the team’s guiding voice after averaging in double figures and starting all 26 games for the Sabres a year ago. “[Sam’s] competitive nature and understanding of the game has earned the respect of his teammates as the leader of this team,” Boyle stated. Senior Cody Veleke currently ranks 17th on the Alongside him is Marian all-time scoring list. fellow senior Cody Veleke (Oakfield, Wis./Oakfield), who led the Sabres in scoring, rebounding, blocks, steals and field goal percentage, earned All-Conference accolades for the second straight season, including All-NACC First Team honors in 2012-13. “Cody has proven to be one of the top post players in the conference with his solid and consistent play,” Boyle said. As for Boyle’s guard play, it’s as stable and consistent as any team in the conference with sophomores Alex Stecker (Oostburg, Wis./ Oostburg) and Drew Binversie (Valders, Wis./Valders) returning after receiving All-Freshmen Team nods a season ago. It was the first time in program history that the Sabres had put two on the All-Freshmen Team. Stecker led the team in assists (99), as well as, free throw percentage (90.7) and three-point percentage (45.6) after starting all 26 games as the team’s point guard. “Alex gets our offense going,” Boyle said. “He has high basketball intelligence and we expect him to be the floor general and trigger the offense.” Binversie proved early on that he deserved a starting role and went on to register 10 double-digit scoring performances including three 20-pluspoint games.

“Drew has shown to be a real playmaker,” Boyle said. “He had a major impact in a lot of games last season, which is rare for a freshman. He can have an effect in the outcome of a game in a number of ways.” Junior forward Mike Keller (Oostburg, Wis./Oostburg) is what Coach Boyle calls the team’s “X-Factor”. Keller was Freshman of the Year in the NACC two years ago and has showed no signs of slowing down. “He helps bring us together as a unit through communication and the willingness to do the little things,” Boyle said. “He’s added a dimension to his game this season that will force defenses to stay honest.” What makes this team dangerous is the depth off their bench as the Sabres feature three seniors ready to carry the load in Elan Solvik (Port Townsend, Wash./Port Townsend), Jeff Harris (Chicago, Ill./Richards) and James Bartelt (Madison, Wis./East). Solvik showed last year his ability to run the point, while providing a change of pace that will give defenses a different look. Harris and Bartelt are both a year removed from competitive basketball, but seem to have picked up right where they left off in 2012. The former will add a much-needed scoring threat off the bench, while the latter looks to provide consistency in the post. “To have Jeff back, knowing what he’s shown to be capable of as a scoring threat and experienced guard, could be similar to having an ace in the hole,” Boyle said. “James has been a pleasant surprise, improving despite missing all of last year due to injury.” Other returners in the mix will be three-point specialist Brad Koth (Butte des Morts, Wis./Winneconne) and the high-energy Alex Gomez (Belvidere, Ill./North), as well as, Dickie Knar (Mundelein, Ill./Mundelein) and Carvell Oliver (Manitowoc, Wis./Lincoln). Boyle’s staff has brought in six newcomers looking to make a name for themselves. “I’m really pleased with the ability of our new guys, the amount of information they have absorbed already, and the kind of attitude and effort they provide at practice every day,” Boyle said. “As a group, it’s obvious they are making a sincere effort and have earned the respect of their teammates through hard work.” Two that should make an immediate impact for the Sabres will be Josh Creed (Chicago, Ill./Brother Rice) and Montrell Hobbs (Milwaukee, Wis./Rufus King), who have shown athleticism and the ability to understand how the offense is run at an early stage. Also vying for minutes will be Carlyle Howard (Chicago, Ill./ Rich Central), Brandon McCullum (Joliet, Ill/West), Josh Oros (Montgomery, Ill./Oswego) and Brant Nickel (Waupun, Wis./Waupun). As is the case with Boyle-coached teams, the non-conference schedule is going to be a challenging one that prepares the team for league play and this year is no different. “I like our non-conference schedule a lot,” Boyle said. “We’ll face teams that will challenge us and prepare us in a number of ways.” The Sabres begin the year Nov. 16, with a home game against Martin Luther, a team they battled to a double-overtime victory on the road a season ago. Three challenges then await the Sabres away from home with a rivalry game at Ripon (Nov. 20) followed by a match-up with Luther (Nov. 22) to open up the Bethel tournament in Minnesota. The Sabres will then take on either UW-Eau Claire or host Bethel in the tournament finale (Nov. 23). Dominican will invade Sadoff Gymnasium Nov. 30, which will kick-off a demanding, 20-game league schedule. “It’s going to be tough,” Boyle said. “The rigor of playing everyone twice brings up the level of competition and teams are really going to have to outlast one another to win the league. It will surely be a test of endurance.”
