LBCC Mens Basketball Returns to Hardwood for 09-10 Season

The LBCC Mens Basketball team is expecting to make another run at The NWAACC Tournament this season after an earlier-than-expected exit from the tournament last season. "We are going to the NWAACCS," says sophomore guard Kenny Yukich.

Head Coach Randy Falk is excited about the new recruits he has brought in this season and the speed and athleticism they will bring to the team.

The recruits will help to fill some holes on a roster that returns solid contributors from last years team. One such returner is point guard Colton Sundquist, who's play at the point guard postition last season was one of the main reasons for the Roadrunners getting to the NWAACC tournament.

The Roadrunners are also returning versatile big men Jordan Highland and Andrew Carter, the athleticism these two bring to the team will allow the Roadrunners to get out and run quite often this season.

They are looking to beat teams with their athleticism and fast play as well as getting after rebounds with ferocity.

Coach Falk is looking for last year's returners to bring maturity and experience to lead the team. "The returning guys have a good idea of what we expect from this team."
