Jeremey Basnight (Brunswick Community College), Trevor Deloach (Chipola Junior College) and Ahmad Grant (Olney Central Junior College) all found a new home in UNCW. All together, this year s team includes six transfer students. BUILDING A WALL In the win over Campbell, UNCW held the Camels without a 3-point fi eld goal for the fi rst time since Dec. 27, Campbell went 0-for-6 behind the arc to snap a 363-game streak that dated back to a loss at Boise State during the season. BIG BLOCKER UNCW has a true shot blocker for the fi rst time in many seasons in junior transfer John Fields. In only two seasons at East Carolina, Fields became the school s second all-time block leader with 104 blocks. CHARLESTON CLASSIC RECAP UNCW went 1-2 in the Charleston Classic after beating Penn State (80-69) and losing to Miami (67-60) and South Florida (74-66).

Chad Tomko was named to the All-Tournament team after shooting 55.9 percent and averaging 18.0 points in three games. John Fields added 10.7 points and 7.7 rebounds against UNCW s three BCS opponents. NEW COACH ON THE BENCH There are seven new faces on the Seahawk roster and another new one of the bench. Veteran coach Henry Dickerson joined the program on July 1 as an assistant coach following a fi ve-year stint as the head coach at N.C. Central. POST-SEASON SUCCESS The Seahawks have appeared in four NCAA Tournaments and two NIT tourneys.
