1 LSUS Men's Basketball Roster continues to grow AUGUST 09, 2005 Shreveport, LA---Men s basketball is returning for its junior year at LSUS with new expectations, new goals, and a roster full of new faces. The Pilots 2005 journey ended with a loss in the round of Sweet 16 at the NAIA National Tournament in Kansas City, MO, and a final regular season ranking of #7 in the nation. The season s last game also brought to an end the college careers of five outstanding young men and extremely talented athletes in the likes of Derrick Hill, Justin Collins, Abraham Saxon, David Walker, and Derrick Rogers. Those 5 guys will be remembered forever here at LSUS. Commented head coach Chad McDowell just days after returning from the NAIA national tournament. They will always be family and will be given credit for helping build our program in such a short amount of time. Replacing these guys will be tough. They are more than just great players; they are great young men and fierce competitors. With such a dramatic roster renewal, most NAIA fans and supporters may be thinking well, they better have enjoyed the ride while it lasted. This may be the case for many programs that may have to suffer through the heartache and hard times of a rebuilding year after such a successful run at the ultimate goal of a national championship; this however is not the case for the LSUS Pilots. The Pilot fans are excited to see the returners and the players the have coming in. The LSUS men s basketball recruiting class earlier this summer announced the signings of former Southwood High School star Josh Porter who transferred from Stephen F. Austin, former Byrd standout Kyle Blankenship who transferred from the University of Tulsa, and Louisiana Tech transfer Jeremy Johnston who finished his high school career at Airline High School. In addition to what was already anticipated to be coach McDowell s most promising recruiting year, the Pilots are excited to announce the signing of 6 8 small-forward, Anton Palmer, and 6 7 post player Shadrach Roome. Palmer, a native of Chicago, IL, was projected as the 14th best small-forward and the 71st best high school senior in the country by espn.com after averaging 19 points and 10 rebounds at Julian High School in Palmer attended Schoolcraft Junior College where he led the team to a #18 finish in the National Junior College Athletics Association Division I men s basketball poll. He averaged 14 points and 8 rebounds and was named the Michigan Community College Athletics Association All-Star Game MVP. In 2004, Palmer was ranked the 9th best small-forward among junior colleges in the country by nbadraft.net. and 10th best by Lindy s College Basketball magazine. God given ability and athleticism will give Palmer the opportunity to be a dominant force in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference. His versatility of being able to shoot from the outside, pass, and handle the ball along with his strength in the low post will add a scoring threat down low the Pilots have been looking for. He is an incredible player and has put in many hours of hard work this summer anticipating the season stated McDowell. He will draw a lot of defensive attention from our opponents has the ability to put up big numbers every single night. To compliment Johnston and Palmer down low, the signing of Shadrach Roome, a 6 7 transfer from Northeastern State University, home of the 2003 NCAA Division II Men s Basketball national champion, will add depth to the Pilots presence

2 in the post. Roome averaged 5.8 points and 5.6 rebounds in his junior year averaging 21 minutes per game. Roome is the cousin of former Pilot player Abraham Saxon who are natives of the West Indies. Roome and Saxon attended and played high school basketball at Evangel Christian Academy in Shreveport, LA.. Roome will be looked upon to fill the void of LSUS all-time leading shot blocker Derek Hill. His physical attributes along with incredible athleticism completes a trio of post players who will be looked upon to not only rebound and block shots, but also contribute to an already potent LSUS offense. Shadrach is a man and we are excited about what he brings to our team. commented McDowell. He is an incredibly strong player who can run the floor with anyone. He knows one speed and that is wide-open. We look for great things from Shad and feel like he will be able to give us another scoring presence inside that we need. The Pilots are excited about the season and the team they will put on the floor this upcoming season. McDowell stated, This recruiting class along with the players we have returning is very strong and have the potential to be a very good team. The challenge is usually the same for most every team and we will be no different. We must play together as a team or we will underachieve. We are confident that these guys are up for the challenge and we are eager to get started. The final additions to the LSUS roster will be released soon. There is no place like home: LSUS loads roster with local talent AUGUST 11, 2005 Shreveport, LA: For many coaches, long road trips, fast food, and hours spent in a gym hunting for that special athlete that will help take a program to the next level is the formula for a successful recruiting class. For LSUS head coach Chad McDowell however, most of the talent he was looking for was in his own backyard. The Pilots are returning four players from last year s team and knew they would have some new faces on the floor with them this year. The four players are good ones and are striving to make it back to Kansas City for the NAIA national tournament. Returning from last year s team are Freddy Hughes, Fredericko Payne, Carlon Simmons, and Derrick Sowell. Also returning off his red-shirt season last year is Brandon Malveaux. Earlier this summer the Pilots announced the signing of several players that were high school standouts right here in Shreveport/Bossier. Those names include Josh Porter (Southwood), Kyle Blankenship (C.E. Byrd), and Jeremy Johnston (Airline). All three players are transferring in from NCAA Division I programs and are well-known names in this area. After announcing the signing of Anton Palmer of Chicago, Illinois, and Shadrach Roome of the West Indies this past week, the LSUS Pilots have released their roster in its entirety. The roster continued to be filled with strong local talent which includes several high school standouts. Jariel Norton (Homer High School), Chris Wafer (Captain Shreve High School), and Damien Goff (Northwood-Lena) will be competing in their first year of college basketball this season. Greg Tyer (Airline High School) decided to transfer from Northwestern State University and will play his last two

3 years for the Pilots. The Pilots also picked up a transfer from Jacksonville Community College in Chad Hardy out of St. Fancisville, Louisiana. Greg Tyer, a junior transfer from Northwestern State University and former Airline high School standout under Coach Myles Holladay announced he will join the LSUS Pilots for the next two seasons. Tyer is a 6 4 forward from Bossier City who has the unique ability to play inside if called upon and shoots the ball for a high percentage from the outside. Tyer saw limited action with NSU in 2004 and decided to transfer to LSUS where he plans on contributing to what hopes to be a championship season at LSUS. Greg is a great addition to our team. commented McDowell. He was a very good high school player who played for a great coach in Myles Holladay. We are thrilled that he has decided to finish his education and eligibility here at LSUS. I m excited about the opportunity to coach him and I am sure his friends and family are excited to see him play. The Pilots have also added a 6 5 post player from Captain Shreve High School in Chris Wafer. Wafer earned All-District honors his senior year while playing under Coach Todd Martinez. His physical strength, size, and ability to rebound will help fill the void of graduate Abraham Saxon. Chris will make his presence felt early this season and will fight for the ball every second he plays, commented McDowell. He is a rebounding machine. His physical presence along with his knowledge of the game will make him a great addition to our team. Chris was well coached by Todd Martinez at Captain Shreve High School and it shows in his play with our guys. People will have a hard time believing he has four years left to play. After exhausting the immediate local resources (Shreveport/Bossier), McDowell stretched out just a few miles by signing Homer High School s Jariel Norton. Norton earned 1st-Team All-State Academic Team honors after accumulating a 4.0 gpa and was the valedictorian of his graduating class. His basketball accomplishments include 1st-Team All-District and All-State honors as he averaged over 26 points and 6 assists a game. At 6 1, this freshman guard has the ability to hit the open shot and has potential to become a solid player for the Pilots. Jariel is a coach s dream as an incoming freshman. stated McDowell. This young man has it all together on and off the floor. He is going to add depth at our guard position, but more importantly, he will be a great ambassador for our University.. One of the biggest surprises of the summer for the Pilots was when they discovered a 6 1 guard from Northwood-Lena High School was attending LSUS. Damien Goff was a non-qualifier out of high School where he earned 1st-Team All- State honors. Goff accumulated a 3.0gpa his freshman year and will now find himself in a Pilot uniform as a shooting guard. This was a big surprise, but definitely a good one, chuckled an astounded McDowell. Here is a kid who did what it took in the classroom to become eligible to play not telling anyone he was even here in school. We knew he was a great player in high school, but didn t know exactly where he had decided to attend college. Damien is a talented guard and is a great addition to our team. What a great surprise we got when Damien came into the office ready to play. And last but definitely not least, the Pilots are proud to announce the signing of Chad Hardy. Hardy is a transfer from Jacksonville Community College. Last year as a freshman, Hardy played in 20 games, averaging 2.7 points while shooting 47.1%. from the floor. Hardy finished second on the team in steals and third in assists with 29. Athleticism and quickness will allow Hardy to fit in with the Pilots up-tempo style of play. Hardy attended West Feliciana High School

4 where he was a standout point guard who averaged 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 7 assists his senior year and was selected to the 2003 All-District team. Chad is a solid point guard and a good all-around basketball player, commented McDowell. He can handle the ball and loves to get his teammates involved. We are excited about having Chad for the next three years. If the Shreveport-Bossier area is looking for a program which showcases local talent at a highly competitive collegiate level, they need to look no further than the LSUS campus November 2. The Pilots will hit the floor with seven local high school standouts versus Southwestern Assemblies of God University as they begin their journey down the road they hope ends at the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, MO; site of the 2006 NAIA National Tournament. We are eager to get started. It s exciting to think how good these guys can be if they work hard and come together as one. We have several Shreveport/Bossier All-City players returning to play which will lead to great crowds once again. Pilots schedule Arkansas and LSU for 2005 season SEPTEMBER 20, 2005 Shreveport, LA Mountain State University, Oklahoma City University, and Azusa Pacific University are all well known institutions among other NAIA Division I programs who compete each year for a chance at an NAIA Division I Men s Basketball National Championship. While these perennial powerhouses of the NAIA are well known and respected for their past accomplishments, rarely are these names seen or talked about on a national level. Despite having an arsenal of NCAA Division I caliber players, most NAIA affiliated teams do not draw crowds that fill their respective facilities, no matter how big or how small the venue. This is due in part because of the lack of attention from the media on a national level and in some cases even the local level, which is imperative for the community to become familiar with the teams and conferences and the developed rivalries amongst them. Because of such little notoriety for athletics in the NAIA, many basketball fans across the country will be asking, Who is LSUS? when they see their name going across the bottom line on the ESPN ticker. In what will be just their third year in existence, the LSUS Pilots Head Coach Chad McDowell, who has led the Pilots to a overall record, a Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Championship, and a Sweet 16 appearance at the 2005 NAIA Buffalo Funds National Tournament, has inked four dates with NCAA Division I opponents that will create even more excitement for Pilot fans. On November 10, the Pilots will travel to Lake Charles, LA to take on McNeese State University of the Southland Conference. At the conclusion of the contest, the Pilots will load up and head to Fayetteville, AR for a contest versus University of Arkansas. The following Tuesday, the Pilots will be off to Baton Rouge, LA, where they will square off versus the LSU Tigers. LSUS will finish up their NCAA run with a visit to Natchitoches. LA when they will square off versus the 2005 Southland conference Champion Northwestern State University Demons. Having these four exhibition games on our schedule against opponents of this caliber can only help us in preparing for our tough conference schedule and making another run at a national tournament berth. We are so excited for our players,

5 our program, and our university to have this great opportunity of playing against two SEC schools along with two teams that compete for the Southland Conference championship every year, commented McDowell. LSUS athletic director Doug Robinson believes that the newest additions to the Pilots schedule has the potential to take the LSUS athletics program to a new level. McDowell has taken a step forward that will bring a lot of attention to our university and our athletics program. Our student-athletes are getting a chance to play against some of the top schools in the country and that is an experience that they will never forget. These games also showcase just a few of the opportunities that student-athletes receive when they choose to attend LSUS," concluded a very excited Robinson. The Pilots open their schedule November 2 at home versus the Southwest Assemblies of God University, and will then start a grueling 13 game road stint before returning home January 3 when they will play host to Central Baptist College.

For the LSUS men s basketball team the hype has already started. The first preseason ranking came out last week and the Pilots saw their name on the list. The Pilots are ranked number ten in the edition of Street and Smith s College Basketball Preview. Senior Fredericko Payne was also selected to the First Team All-American list. This is an honor for our players from the past as well as what we have here this year. We hope to keep building the program in a positive way and continue to win ball games, stated head coach Chad McDowell about his team and the preseason ranking. The tradition was built last season as the Pilots won the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference regular season title and made it to the NAIA Sweet Sixteen. The Pilots finished the year with a 27-9 overall record and a 16-2 conference record. LSUS will face two of the other top ten teams when they face off with Union (TN) in December and conference foe University of Mobile in January. The top ten teams are Azusa Pacific, Mountain State, Union, John Brown, Georgetown, Carroll, Oklahoma Christian, Mobile, Faulkner, and LSU- Shreveport. The Pilots tip it off on November 2nd at 7:30 p.m. against Southwestern Assemblies of God University at The Dock on the campus of LSUS.

6 'LSUS Midnight Madness' to showcase basketball teams OCTOBER 24, 2005 Midnight Madness will showcase the men s and women s basketball teams, with intra-squad scrimmages and a shoot-out contest between the men s and women s basketball teams in a Battle of the Sexes. LSUS cheerleaders and the danceline will perform and all LSUS athletes will be introduced. There will also be lots of games, prizes and fun for all in attendance.

Come and support the LSUS Lady Pilots and Pilots basketball teams! Preseason Polls Rank Pilots 10th in NAIA OCTOBER 26, 2005 Shreveport, LA---Eight months after their first Sweet 16 appearance and a loss at the hands of the future 2005 NAIA Division I Men s Basketball John Brown University (AR), the LSUS Pilots have been ranked 10th in the NAIA pre-season polls which were released Wednesday afternoon. The NAIA Division I men s basketball season was a year of firsts for the LSUS Pilots. Chad McDowell and his Pilots recorded a 27-9 overall record which included a 16-2 Gulf Coast Athletic Conference record which was good enough for a share of the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference regular season championship with the University of Mobile Rams. By virtue of holding the upper hand in a tie-breaker versus the Rams, the Pilots received an automatic birth in the 2005 NAIA Buffalo Funds National Tournament in Kansas City, MO. In their first national tournament appearance, the Pilots won their first game versus Cumberland University in a double-overtime thriller, In the second round however, the Pilots were held under 60 points for the first time in their existence and were eliminated from the Sweet 16 round by JBU. Despite a year which captivated the entire LSUS campus and broke the LSUS win record with 27 (previously 21, 2004), the Pilots felt as if their journey ended a little too early. However, the 2005 Pilot team has made the step to #1 a little closer by starting the year ranked 10th in the country amongst NAIA teams. With the players we have returning and the recruiting class we have assembled, we feel worthy of to be considered one of the top 10 teams in the country, comments Pilot head coach Chad McDowell. It speaks volumes for our young program and is a tribute to the quality of student-athletes we have had over the past two years. We still understand that it s a pre-season poll and the work is yet to be done. The Pilots will be put to the test early with 14 games throughout the month of November which includes their home opener November 2 versus the Southwestern Assemblies of God University, and exhibition games versus NCAA Division I opponents McNeese State University, LSU, and the University of Arkansas. These games will serve as crucial preparation

7 for the month of December which will see the Pilots take on the 6th ranked Union University on a neutral court in Houston, TX, and a showdown with the 15th ranked Texas Wesleyan University Rams in Fort Worth, TX It should be everyone s goal as it is ours to be #1. We are proud to be recognized throughout the country, however, our focus will continue to remain on playing together night in and night out and letting the rest take care of itself, concludes McDowell.

8 Capacity crowd gets first look at Pilots NOVEMBER 02, 2005 Shreveport, LA Louisiana State University in Shreveport finally had the chance to see the highly anticipated arrival of the version of their men s basketball team, and the LSUS Pilots did not disappoint. In typical LSUS fashion, the Pilots jumped out to an early 7-0 lead to start the first half and never looked back. Senior guard and 2005 All-American Fredericko Payne led the Pilot offense with yet another All-American performance at the Dock as he poured in a game high 33 points in a win over the Southwestern Assemblies of God University Lions. Pilot point guard Kyle Blankenship drained the first basket of the season from three feet beyond the three point line which started a 7-0 run to begin the first half which was capped by a Payne steal and breakaway lay-up forcing a SAGU timeout at the 17:46 mark. SAGU managed a 6-0 run out of their timeout to cut the lead to 7-6, however the Pilots responded with a full court pressure defense that forced 19 turnovers which included four steals by Payne leading to a half-time lead. Stephen F. Austin University transfer and former Southwood High School star Josh Porter entered the Pilots record book with 3:38 remaining in the half after a steal by Payne and a pass to a wide open Porter who delivered a slam-dunk that brought the largest crowd (950) in LSUS history to their feet with excitement. LSUS had eight players tally the score sheet in the first half with Payne leading the way with 10 points and four steals while Anton Palmer, a junior forward from Chicago, IL pitched in with seven points and seven rebounds. The Pilots shot 42% from the field which included 6-17 from beyond the three point line while committing just five turnovers while forcing 19 by the Lions. Julio Osorio carried the offensive load for the Lions in the first half pouring in 14 points and collecting 12 rebounds; each halftime highs. The Lions finished shooting 44% from the field and out-rebounded LSUS The LSUS offense hit another gear in the second half as they went on to pour in 69 points, 23 of which came from Payne who was 7-11 from the field which included an amazing 5-8 performance from behind the three point line. This was a big team win. We wanted to make a statement here tonight and show the best fans in country what we can do, commented Payne. Rico is coming off a great season. Everyone in the NAIA knows who he is and what he can do. I believe that he is starting to understand that he is surrounded by an entire team of athletes who are ready to back each other every night and that he does not have to do it all, which will in the end lead to a lot of great nights for Payne this season, commented Head Coach Chad McDowell. All five Pilot starters finished in double-digits which included Payne with 33 points, six steals, and five assists; Porter finished with 19 points on 7-21 shooting and five assists; Palmer collected a double-double in his Pilot debut with 17 points and rebounds; Blankenship added a double-double of his own with 10 points and a game high 12 assists; and

9 Shadrach Roome added 14 points and seven rebounds. Pilot forward Jeremy Johnston, a senior transfer from Louisiana Tech University added 9 points and eight assists while Freddy Hughes pitched in with eight points, five assists, and four rebounds. Derrick Sowell had a rare off night connecting on just 1-9 shooting, but with his physical presence and athleticism he collected a game high five offensive rebounds and collected three steals. Greg Tyer finished 2-2 from the field and finished with five points and Chad Hardy connected on 1-2 free throws in the final minute for his first career point in a Pilot uniform. This is the most fun I have had on a basketball court in years, commented Blankenship after his double-double performance. It feels great to be part of a winning team and to play in front of such a great crowd. Osorio continued to lead the Lion charge in the second half as he torched the Pilot defense for 32 points on shooting and a game high 18 rebounds while teammate Jeremy Bowman added 17 points on 7-13 shooting. The Lions connected on (68%) attempts from the field which included 6-14 from the three point line and 6-12 from the charity stripe. SAGU committed 32 turnovers while dishing out 27 assists and out rebounded the Pilots by a margin. This was a great team victory. We played with great intensity for 40 minutes and everyone made the most of their minutes tonight. If everyone continues to do so and we continue to grow and play together, we are going to have a lot success this season, concluded McDowell.

10 Pilots rewrite LSUS record book with victory over Tigers NOVEMBER 06, 2005 Shreveport, LA---It is a rare occasion that a team surrenders 108 points and still comes out on the winning end of a 45 point landslide victory. The LSUS Pilots (2-0) did just that Saturday night at the Dock as the crowd of 935 people witnessed a victory over the Paul Quinn College Tigers (0-1) which set four new LSUS records; most points in a single game with 153 (previous record was 118, 11/06/04); most field goals made in a single game with 57 (previous record was 43, 12/18/1995); three point field goals made in a single game with 22 (previous record was 17, 11/06/04); and assists in a single game with 43 (previous record was 31, 1/25/1994). Jeremy Johnston sparked a 15-5 run with six points to start the half which was capped off by a Derrick Sowell slam dunk that electrified the LSUS campus forcing the Tigers to call their first timeout at the 16:00. A three point field goal by Antwan Habersham at the 11:00 mark pulled the Tigers to within nine points, but that is as close as they would come on this night as the Pilots exploded for 75 first half points, including 22 points from leading scorer Fredericko Payne who connected on 7-12 shooting which included 6-10 from beyond the three point line. The Pilots took a lead into the half after shooting 56% (27-48) from the field. Four Pilots reached double digits in the first half which included Payne with 22, Josh Porter with 13, Anton Palmer 11, and Johnston with 10 points and 5 rebounds. Damien Chishlom led the Tiger offense with 17 first half points while Habersham finished with 11 and teammate Alonzo Butler pitched in with 10. The Tigers shot 42% (18-43) from the field which included 4-14 from beyond the three point line. The scoring barrage continued in the second half as the Pilots poured in 78 points after connecting on field goal attempts including an astounding from the three point line. LSUS went on to win by a final score of , to improve to 2-0 on the season and improved to 25-3 overall at the Dock since the season. Everything we did on offense tonight seemed to work. When we created an open shot we knocked it down, commented Pilot Head Coach Chad McDowell. The LSUS offensive attack was highlighted with seven players scoring double-digits including Payne with his second 30 point performance of the season. Palmer finished with his second double-double of the season finishing with 30 points and 11 rebounds. Porter added 21 points; Johnston finished with 15; Sowell 13 points and five rebounds; Freddy Hughes finished a perfect 5-5 from the floor collecting 12 points and nine assist; and Shadrach Roome finished with 11 points and five rebounds. Kyle Blankenship collected a game high 10 assists and added three points while freshman Damien Goff connected on three consecutive three point attempts late in the second half for 9 points. With the scoring threats we have on floor and on the bench, it is going to be very tough for a defense to focus on just one or two guys. Rico and Palmer had a very good night. Tomorrow it could be someone else, concluded McDowell.

11 The Tigers finished shooting 43% from the field and had six players reach double-digit scoring totals; Chishlom finished with a team high 28 points; Butler had 17 points and seven rebounds; Habershaw finished with 14 points; Channing Coffey added 11; and Amahad Jennings and Jonathan Alexander added 10 points each. At 2-0 on the season the Pilots will now take to the road on a trip that will include three exhibition games versus NCAA Division I opponents, the first being Thursday night when they will square off against the McNeese State Cowboys in Lake Charles, LA. The Pilots will then travel to Fayetteville, AR to take on the University of Arkansas Razorbacks Saturday night, and then will make their was south to Baton Rouge, LA to take on the LSU Tigers Tuesday night. This will be a huge test for our guys. We have proven that we can score, now we get to test what I believe is the best defense we have ever put on the floor, concluded McDowell. The Pilots will return home to the Dock November 17th when they will play host to Texas Wesleyan University. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30pm.

12 Razorbacks pound Pilots in exhibition contest NOVEMBER 14, 2005 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark.

Arkansas made just two-of-14 threes, but shot 59.2 percent overall from the floor (45-76). Jonathon Modica led the way, connecting on 10-of-16 shots and going seven-of-11 at the line for 28 points. Townes was 10-of-14 for 25 points. Modica, who also had five assists, and Townes tied for game-high rebounding honors with 11 each. Charles Thomas hit 10-of-12 shots, and had 24 points, eight rebounds and three assists. Ronnie Brewer had 15 points, five rebounds and six assists, and Sean McCurdy had 13 points and five assists. Dontell Jefferson had seven assists and four steals. Porter led the Pilots with 21 points on six-of-19 shots, including six-of-18 threes.

Arkansas opens its season Friday at 7:05 p.m. at home against defending Big Sky Conference champion Portland State.

13 Tough road trip brings out best in Pilots NOVEMBER 14, 2005 Shreveport, LA---The competitive nature in athletes and coaches makes the old saying of winning isn t everything hard to appreciate at times. The LSUS Pilots and Head Coach Chad McDowell just dropped a decision to McNeese State University Thursday night, and received a beating at the hands of the University of Arkansas Razorbacks Saturday night, but feel as though the trip was a total success. Before we left, we said that if we get better as a team and have fun, it will be a successful trip. Despite losing by 40 points to Arkansas, I felt we played better against them then we did against McNeese, and I am very pleased with our effort. I think playing in front of 10, 500 fans is an experience that our guys will remember for the rest of their life, and therefore, I think we can look at ourselves and say mission accomplished, commented McDowell. Of the many highlights on the trip, McDowell was very pleased with the play of three new faces on the Pilots roster; Josh Porter being one them. The 6 3 guard from Shreveport, LA transferred to LSUS for his junior season from Stephen F. Austin University. Porter averaged 20 points in the Pilots first two games of the season, but McDowell felt as though he still had not seen the best of Porter. A 33 point performance which included 7-13 from beyond the three point line versus McNeese State University showed the Pilots just what he can do. I was happy to see that after struggling from the field his first two games, he knew it was just a matter of time before the shots started to fall. I think this will be a huge boost of confidence for this young man because he showed what he is capable of doing on the floor versus very high caliber opponents, said McDowell of Porter. In addition to the play of Porter, McDowell had some new found success from the post position in Shadrach Roome and Jeremy Johnston. Roome, a 6 7 senior from Northeastern State University, connected on 6-8 from the field for 15 points versus McNeese, and was 6-7 from the floor for 12 points and added five rebounds versus the Razorbacks. In addition to the play of Roome, 6 9 senior transfer from Louisiana Tech University Jeremy Johnston added seven points and four rebounds off the bench at McNeese, and 15 points and six rebounds versus the Razorbacks. Jeremy brings something to our team that we didn t have before; game experience at the Division I level. We expected him to be a scoring presence on the inside, and he proved he can be just that on this trip, said McDowell of Johnston. The addition of Shadrach and his physical presence down low has also been a blessing. He showed he can bang with the big boys and still find a way to score which will open some better looks for our guards from the perimeter. LSUS now has an even bigger challenge to face as they are jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire as they will travel to Baton Rouge tomorrow to take on the LSU Tigers. We are going up against yet another Division I powerhouse in LSU. They have the SEC freshman of the year in Glenn Big Baby Davis who will be a very tough test for our defense. We have some specific things we want to improve on and playing against LSU will make us work hard to do so, concluded McDowell. When all is said and done, McDowell and his LSUS Pilots are very proud of the way they compete on the floor with class and a true champion s character. Despite being overmatched at times, the Pilots continued to play with pride and were

14 rewarded by the recognition of the Arkansas crowd. One of the 10, 500 fans in attendance took the time to write a few words in reference to the Pilots performance. I was at the ballgame tonight where your basketball team played against the Razorbacks. I was most impressed with your team's sportsmanship. When one of our players was hurt, two of your players went over to pat him on the back as he was taken off the court. One of our players went up onto the scorer's table and three of your players and your coach went over to help keep him from being hurt. They were getting beat and yet their integrity was apparent which in my opinion is worth more than the score. Your school should be proud of the way they were represented tonight in a basketball game. Tigers fly past Pilots, (Story courtesy of LSU Sports Information Department) NOVEMBER 16, 2005 BATON ROUGE -- Darnell Lazare led six Tigers in double figures scoring with 19 points, as the LSU men's basketball team completed exhibition play with a victory over LSU-Shreveport of the NAIA on Tuesday night in the Maravich Center. LSU, which finished 2-0 in exhibition play, opens the regular season against Southern University on Friday night at home. LSU-Shreveport, ranked No. 10 in the NAIA, fell to 0-3 in exhibition play but hold a 2-0 record in regular-season play this season. The Pilots set several school records in a victory over Paul Quinn College earlier this season The Tigers shot 60.3 percent from the field (44 of 73) and out-rebounded LSU-S, LSU guard Darrel Mitchell scored 18 points -- all in the first half -- while forwards Glen Davis and Tasmin Mitchell each had 16. Forward Tyrus Thomas added 15 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks in 16 minutes, and reserve forward Magnum Rolle scored 13 points in 17 minutes. Tigers reserves Chris Johnson (eight points) and Alex Farrer (seven) each played well in a clean-up role. Reserve point guard Ben Voogd had five points, seven assists and a steal. LSU-Shreveport, which shot only 28.6 percent (22 of 77) from the field, had four players in double figures scoring. Derrick Sowell led the Pilots with 15 points in 15 minutes of play. LSU-S launched 27 three-pointers, making only seven (25.9 percent). LSU trailed by as many as six, 13-7, in the first four minutes. After coming back to tie the game at 17-17, LSU scored 12 straight points to take a lead on a tip-in by Tasmin Mitchell with 11:14 to play in the first half. The lead increased to 28 with two minutes to play in the half, 58-20, on a layup by Lazare.

15 At halftime, LSU led behind 18 points from Darrel Mitchell and 15 by Lazare. The Tigers out-rebounded the Pilots, 31-8, and who 55.6 percent from the field (20 of 36). In foul trouble, the Pilots never threatened in the second half. The final score was the largest margin of the game. The Tigers open the regular season against Southern on Friday, Nov. 18, at 7 p.m. in the Maravich Center.

LSU HEAD COACH JOHN BRADY Opening Statement..."That team was averaging 113 a game, I believe, or 115 a game, and they scored 79 or 80 at Arkansas the other night. We made a goal to hold them to 65 or less. Even though we were up a number of points, we still wanted to try to guard and meet our defensive goal. We were able to do that. We played a lot of guys. We had some guys that didn't play in the first exhibition as much as they would have liked, but we got a chance really to kind of play some people. I wanted to put Chris Johnson in when the game was still kind of on the line early. His biggest problem right now is execution, but I think he's shown that he's got some talent and some real skill there for a guy that's He's just in a learning curve right now, but he's going to be fine. Eventually what we'd like to do is back him up at the 3 with Tasmin (Mitchell), but right now we're swinging Garrett (Temple) at the 2 and the 3. Hopefully it will eventually work out for us where we'll almost have a sub for each guy. I thought that, in spite of the slow start, there's two ways you can look at it. You can say that we started slow or they made some nice baskets early on, and they did. I think defensively we picked it up a little bit." On Kentrell Gransberry..."We're in the process of talking to him now. He was really disappointed about the other night. It bothers me a little bit that a guy would make a knee-jerk decision because he didn't play as much as he would have liked in an exhibition game. He's a fine young man, and we want him here. He's really concerned about if he can play here with the players we have. There are some avenues to where he could make a decision to maybe sit out this year and play two more after that. That would be something he would have to determine what he thinks is best for him. My opinion, he should work through whatever insecurities he has about where he fits and stick with it here because he can graduate from LSU and get a degree. It shouldn't be a knee-jerk decision about immediate playing time. It should be a decision about your future and the rest of your life. That's what I'm talking with him about now." LSU-SHREVEPORT HEAD COACH CHAD MCDOWELL Opening Statement "We are disappointed as a team. They are great. They are at a different level than where we are at. That was proven, but we still should have given them a better run for an exhibition game. Hopefully, we can build off of an embarrassing loss."

16 On LSU's athleticism... "Their athleticism is unbelievable. It's incredible. If they play like that, they are in for a great season. They are long. What do you do to stop it?" On LSU's defense... "Obviously, we rely on that outside ball. When that doesn't go, it can get ugly. For the level we play at, we run those type of shots down. LSU really doesn't allow that. You have one chance. I don't think they missed much in the second half. Everyone really got in on the action. Defensively, that is what they do. They are long. You think you are quick enough to go by somebody, but with their wingspan, when you have a layup, they are blocking it with their elbow. They are incredible athletes and well coached. They are a great basketball team. We are just disappointed we didn't give them more of a run." Pilots and Rams square off in Top-15 match-up NOVEMBER 17, 2005 Since the season, the LSUS Pilots have established a winning tradition on their home court. The Pilots have collected a 25-3 record at the Dock, with two of the losses coming at the hands of conference foes Xavier University and the University of Mobile, and the third from a loss January 3rd, 2005 at the hands of the Texas Wesleyan Rams. We are thrilled to get back to our regular season play, however, we are very aware of the tough match-up we have versus Texas Wesleyan. The combination of Ben Hunt and Kharyi McKinney is one of the best guard combinations in the NAIA. They play a similar style of game as we do which should provide a very exciting game for our fans tonight, commented Pilots Head Coach McDowell. The Rams enter tonight s match-up averaging 77.0 points per game with Hunt and McKinney averaging a combined 36 points per game. The Pilots return home after a three game road trip versus NCAA Division I opponents McNeese State, University of Arkansas, and LSU. We learned a lot about ourselves over this past week. We played some tough teams who exposed our weaknesses. Now we need to use those games as learning tools to get us to the top which is where we want to be, concluded McDowell. If the Rams have hopes of upsetting the Pilots at home for a second time, they will have to be prepared for a Pilot offense that has averaged 135 point in two games at home this season. Fredericko Payne has averaged 31.5 points at the Dock this year while teammate Anton Palmer has averaged a double-double with 23.5 points and 10.5 rebounds. Josh Porter averaged 20 points in the first two games of the season despite struggling from the field. Porter showed how much of a scoring threat he can be as he averaged 22 points on the Pilots NCAA DI road trip. Josh really rose to the occasion over the past 3 games and proved he is a great player. Although different guys have shined on different nights thus far this season, it s been our total TEAM effort that has gotten us to the point we are at and it will take another total team effort tonight playing against Texas Wesleyan said McDowell. Jeremy Johnston has been a big addition to the Pilot roster this far. Johnston has averaged 12 points and 7 rebounds along with being a strong defender under the Pilot basket. Shadrach Roome has pitched in with 12.5 points and 6 rebounds while starting point guard Kyle Blankenship has a team high 22 assists and 6.5 points per game. Freddy

17 Hughes has been a huge boost off the bench for the Pilots thus far averaging 10 points (8-8 from the field) and collecting 14 assists to just 4 turnovers. Returning senior forward Derrick Sowell broke out this season with 15 points and 6 rebounds (both team highs) versus LSU and hopes to improve on his 7.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. Payne powers Pilots past Evangels at SAGU Pepsi Classic NOVEMBER 18, 2005 Waxahachie, TX---The LSUS Pilots (4-0) connected on three-point attempts in the first half and built a lead at the half over the Mid-America Christian University Evangels (4-5) Friday night in the first round of the Southwestern Assemblies of God University Pepsi Classic. Fredericko Payne connected on field goal attempts for a game high 28 points to lead all scorers in the Pilot victory over the Evangels. Payne connected on seven of his first eight three-point attempts and collected 23 first half points. Teammate Josh Porter followed with a 9-15 performance from the field which included 4-8 from the three-point line for 18 points to put the Pilots up at the half. Five Pilots reached double figures with Payne leading the way with 28 points and seven assists; Porter finished with 25 points and four assist; Freddy Hughes, Jeremy Johnston, and Carlon Simmons rounded off the Pilots scoring coming off the bench and adding 10 points a piece. The Evangels Steven Thomas connected on from the field for 25 points and collected 10 rebounds for the games only double-double. Teammate Donald Thorne added 24 points and 7 rebounds while Willie Johnson collected 18 points and eight rebounds. The Pilots will be in action again tomorrow afternoon versus Dallas Christian College looking to match their 5-0 start from the season. Tip-off is scheduled for 4:00pm. Pilots return to winning ways with win over Rams (By Pesky Hill) NOVEMBER 18, 2005 Shreveport, LA--- Two of the nation s best NAIA basketball teams squared off at The Dock Thursday night and this time it was LSUS turn to prevail. The 10th-ranked Pilots, who lost a barn burner to Texas Wesleyan here last year, got long range shooting from Frederico Payne and Josh Porter to hold off the No. 15 Rams
