Kent State Men picked 4th by Blue Ribbon, Davis on 1st Team

The Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook is out digitally and is a must have for college basketball fans. With 420 pages, its the most thorough, complete guide out there with in depth quotes from each coach in the country.

The publication picked the Kent State men’s basketball team fourth in it’s MAC preseason poll, while Senior forward VonCameron Davis was picked to be a preseason 1st team selection.

The revamped Kent State backcourt was picked as the third best backcourt in the league and the front court, despite veterans Davis and Senior Cli’Ron Hornbeak, did not make the top three front courts in the league.

The main themes from Head Coach Rob Senderoff in his comments were improving on defense and being more physical. Senderoff spoke about how much more competitive practice is, and the versatility of his newcomers, most notably in the backcourt will aid the Flashes this season. All things we wrote about back in June.
