WHAT’S AHEADMOORHEAD, Minn. -- The Minnesota State University Moorhead men’s basketball team started the 2014-15 campaign with two victories over Mid-America Athletic Association opponents in the Northwest Missouri Classic last weekend. The Dragons defeated last year’s co-MIAA champions Northwest Missouri State 75-66 on Friday night and Fort Hays State 83-71 on Saturday afternoon.

This week, MSUM looks to continue its successful start to the season this weekend when it travels to frigid Fairbanks, AK for three games in the Alaska Invitational. First, on Thursday, the Dragons face West Alabama at 8 p.m., followed by Black Hills State on Friday at 8 p.m. and finally the tournament host, Alaska Fairbanks at 10 p.m. on Saturday night.

First on the slate for the Dragons is West Alabama on Thursday night. The Tigers have started the season with two losses against Florida Southern and Eckerd. Through two games, the Tigers have three players who are averaging more than 10 points per game, led by senior guard Justin Wright with 18.5 points per game. Senior forward Lieon Tillman has posted 13.5 points per game and 9.0 rebounds per game. Junior guard Kenric McCants is averaging 12.0 points per game. The Tigers have shot the basketball well this season, shooting .524 from the field and .433 from beyond the three-point arc.

Next up is Black Hills State on Friday night. The Yellow Jackets won their first game of the season on Monday night against South Dakota Mines 72-67 in overtime. Junior guard/forward Ryan Riley came off the bench and scored 22 points and grabbed six rebounds in 31 minutes of action to lead the team. Senior guard Brody Brisk contributed 11 points and had six rebounds in the victory. The Yellow Jackets proved to be pesky in their first game, snagging 10 steals, led by junior guard Tate Hilgenkamp’s four.

Finally, on Saturday night, the Dragons face Alaska Fairbanks. The Nanooks have not had an official game this season, but did split two exhibition games against Trinity International. Junior guard Adam Griffin lead the team with 13.0 points per game in the exhibition match ups, while junior guard Ruben Silvas led the team in rebounding with 6.5 rebounds per game while contributing 12.5 points per game.

A LOOK BACK AT LAST WEEKThe Dragons began the season on a high note, defeating Northwest Missouri State on Friday and Fort Hays State on Saturday.

Junior Ngijol Songolo and sophomore Aaron Lien led the Dragons in the win over NWMS with 14 points each. Junior forward Isaac Sevlie chipped in 11 points and five blocks while senior Jordan Riewer had 10 points and eight assists. The game was tightly contested in the second half, with the score being tied three times before MSUM went on a 12-4 run with seven minutes left in the game to secure the victory, 75-66 in favor of the Dragons.

Lien had 26 points and drained six three pointers in the win over Fort Hays State. Riewer added six assists to lead MSUM. The Dragons had a 14-point lead in the first half after a three-point play from Lien and extended its lead to as much as 16 points in the second half. The Dragons hit seven-of-eight free throws in the final three minutes of the game to win 83-71.

Lien’s Career DayTwo games into his second season as a Dragon and Aaron Lien has already surpassed his single-game career high in points. Lien dropped 26 points on the Tigers, sank nine field goals including six three pointers, also career highs. In 31.0 minutes per game, Lien is averaging 20.0 points per game, a mark good enough for third in the NSIC.

Cleaning up the GlassThe Dragons rank second in the NSIC in rebounds at 38.0 per game and first in defensive rebounds at 30.50 per game. Lien leads the team individually at 5.5 per game and is eighth in the conference in defensive rebounds per game at 5.00. The rebounding numbers are impressive for the Dragons, as they only have three players over 6-foot-6 and often play a lineup with four guards.

Securing the BasketballThrough two games, the Dragons lead the NSIC in assist-to-turnover ratio. MSUM has 1.5 assists for every turnover this season (30 assists, 20 turnovers). Jordan Riewer is a big reason why the Dragons are leading the conference at the moment, with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 7. He has 14 assists and just two turnovers.

2014-15 MEN’S BASKETBALL

MINNESOTA STATE UNIVERSITY MOORHEAD DRAGONS

@MSUM_MBB

COACHING BIOIn his first four seasons as head coach, Chad Walthall has led the Minnesota State University Moorhead men’s basketball team to unparalled heights. Having completed his fourth season in 2013-14, the Dragons are poised to continue as a formidable program in the rugged NSIC and region.That successful run -- one of the biggest turnarounds in all of Division II -- in Walthall’s first four years includes a first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 1965, the most wins by any coach in his first four years at MSUM (76), and the best three-year stretch in the program in more than three decades (61 wins). The stretch also saw MSUM win its first conference title since 1981-82 when the Dragons won the NSIC North Division title in 2013-14.During the past three seasons, MSUM has averaged 20 wins per season and has won five NSIC tournament games during that time span. Prior to Walthall’s arrival, MSUM had won just two NSIC tournament games since 2000.Known for his ability to rebuild collegiate programs, Walthall has done just that at MSUM and has the Dragons poised to be a contender for years to come. Taking over a team that was 10-17 prior to his ar-rival, Walthall, in his second season at MSUM, took the Dragons to the NCAA tournament, recording a first-round win and advancing to the NCAA regional semifinals. In four years, he has compiled a record of 76-41 -- an average of 19 wins per season. In the previous three seasons prior to Walthall’s arrival, MSUM averaged 11 wins.Walthall has never had a losing record in conference play in 11 years as a collegiate head coach.The success continued in 2013-14 as Walthall guided a young Dragon team with just two seniors to the NSIC North Division title and to the program’s second 20-win season in the past three years. The Dragons were the only NSIC team to beat regional qualifiers Minnesota State, Mankato (which was ranked 11th in the nation at the time) and Winona State during the regular season.Senior guard Tarell Clark and junior guard Jordan Riewer earned All-NSIC honors. MSUM was ranked in the top 30 in several statistical categories throughout the season.In 2012-13, MSUM continued its progression under Walthall with a 19-11 mark, reaching the 19-win mark for the second consecutive year. That included a thrilling 78-74 win over No. 11-ranked St. Cloud State and an eight-game winning streak. The Dragons earned a first-round home game in the Northern Sun Intercol-legiate Conference tournament for just the second time in school history -- the first being in Walthall’s second year in 2011-12 -- and earned an 87-78 win over SMSU to advance.Senior Alex Novak also set MSUM career records in blocks (223) and rebounds (1,054) during Walthall’s first three years. Novak also earned Capital One/CoSida Academic All-America first-team honors in 2013, becoming the first Dragon student-athlete to achieve the honor in four years, and the first men’s basketball player since 1996 to do so. Novak was first team All-NSIC, while senior Anthony Tucker earned All-NSIC second-team honors.In 2011-12, Walthall guided MSUM to a 21-10 mark and led the Dragons to the NCAA tournament. Not only did MSUM advance to the NCAA Tournament, but they earned a first-round win, an 82-66 victory over Southwest Minnesota State, to advance to the second round.The Dragons started the year with an 11-0 mark, their best start since 1971. They were ranked as high as 16th in the nation, the first time MSUM has been ranked in program history. The team also beat Division I foe North Dakota State, 90-84 in an exhibition game to start the season.In Walthall’s first season in 2010-11, he proved he was more than capable of rebuilding the Dragon bas-ketball program. In 14 years prior to his arrival, the program had won only 40 percent of its games and posted just two winning conference seasons. Walthall, who has had winning league records in each of his 11 years as a collegiate head coach, led the Dragons to their first overall (15-12) and NSIC (12-10) winning seasons since 2002-2003.Prior to arriving at MSUM, Walthall was an assistant coach at Iowa of the Big Ten from 2007-10. While on the Hawkeye coaching staff, he assisted in recruiting Iowa’s 2010 recruiting class which was ranked 20th in the nation and third in the Big Ten, by Van Coleman. Walthall also served as interim Head Coach for the Hawkeyes for four games, while Head Coach Todd Lickliter was sidelined due to health reasons.Walthall’s head coaching experience has a history of rebuilding basketball programs. In 2000 he was hired as Head Basketball Coach at Loras College. He served seven seasons (2000-07) becoming the third win-ningest coach in school history. He also served as Director of Athletics from 2004-07.Walthall was named 2006-07 Iowa Intercollegiate Conference (IIAC) Coach of the Year while leading the Duhawks to a 15-1 conference record and the IIAC title. Along with achieving regular season success, Walthall led Loras to its first IIAC tournament title and first NCAA tournament berth in school history. His seven-year mark at Loras was 116-69..Walthall took over the Loras program after serving as assistant coach at Eastern Michigan for two years (1998-2000) and St. Olaf College for four years (1994-98). He was head coach at Redwood Valley High School for one season (1993-94) and a graduate assistant coach at St. Cloud State University for two years (1991-93). While at St. Cloud State he also served as head coach for a Collegiate All-Star team that traveled to Europe.Walthall attended Concordia College in Moorhead, Minn., earning a bachelor’s degree in Physical Educa-tion and Health in 1991. While at Saint Cloud State he earned his master’s degree in Athletics Administra-tion (1993). As a collegiate athlete at Concordia, Walthall played quarterback and was part of two Min-nesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) football championships. He earned all-conference honors in that sport as a junior and senior. He also served as a student assistant basketball coach.As a high school athlete in Staples, Minn., Walthall was team captain and three-year starter in football, basketball and baseball, earning numerous All-Conference honors.Walthall is a native of Staples, Minn. and currently resides in Moorhead. He and his wife, Jenni, have four children, a daughter Brooke (14), twin sons Brady and Blake (12), and son Beau (eight).
