Coleman Approaching 1,000: Sophomore guard Marvin Coleman averaged 26.5 points and 10 rebounds in his team’s two games last week en route to OCCAC player of the week honors.

End of the Road: Lorain County ends their 2014-15 conference season with tonight’s game. After a few years out of the conference, this has been their first year back. They are an NJCAA Division III team and will open postseason play later this month. Trio In Double Figures: Aside from Coleman’s 19.1 per game, Brandon Lawler (17.3) and Kevin Jenkins (12.5) are also averaging double figures in scoring for Lorain County. In conference play, four are in double figures, led by Coleman at 21.4 per game. The others are Lawler (17.2), Jenkins (11.5) and Zach Barens (10.7).
