Montana State Bobcats Mens Basketball Tickets

Expected by many to be one of the worst teams in the league at die start of last season, the Bobcats went on to win nine Big Sky games and tie intrastate rival Montana for second place in the Big Sky standings. The turnaround earned Mick Durham the league s Coach of die Year award, and with all five starters — including senior guards Ja'Ron Jefferson and Branden Miller and senior forward Marvin Moss returning, MSU looks to be die class of the league this time around. Moss and Jefferson were both All-Big Sky selections and, along widi Miller, accounted for 55.2 percent of die Bobcats' offensive production last winter. In addition, Durham has a good defender on the wing in junior Nick Dissly and a growing presence in the post in Alioune Beye, a 6'11" senior and second-year junior college transfer. Beye averaged 8.5 points and shot 63.6 percent from the field, but he must improve from the line, where he hit a dismal 33.3 percent.
