You are correct, The Pointers are No. 24 in the preseason poll from D3Hoops.com, though they must replace four of five starters from last season's team

Obviously eyes are drawn to Jordan Taylor tonight, just the second preseason All-American in school history, joining Michael Finley in 1994-95

Giordana's team got to the high school sectional games twice in his career and he's now the school's leading scorer with over 1200 points in 4 years! Great player

@bballbg Hass looks to be more of a perimeter type... he hit 28 3's last year for D-II Augustana and only had 32 rebounds while averaging 15 mins per game

[Comment From PointSpecialPointSpecial: ]

I want to see if Dukan or Kaminsky get any time... I'm a Pointer fan/alum but those guys are Illinois guys like me. For Point, I want to see what Ziemer brings, I've been hearing about his for a couple of years now. And I wanna see if D Tillema can stay healthy for the whole year!

Happy to be here Sara... fired up for 2011-12. Lots of unknowns with this year's team. Should be fun to watch the new guys fit in (and by new I'm including Berggren, Brust, etc.)

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:05 Patrick Herb

8:05

Great effort from Ryan EVans there to tip that rebound... he couldn't grab it, but got a hand on it and tipped it for a 3. That's what UW needs from Evans this year.

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:08 Patrick Herb

8:08

T. Tillema scores as Badgers had a defensive breakdown allowing him to sneak into the lane for a floater

Evans with 3 early rebounds... no reason he can't be one of UW's top glass guys this season.

Though he missed the layup, good to see Berg put the ball on the floor. He looked quick.

8:14

Karl Anderson:

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:14 Karl Anderson

8:15

[Comment From EvanEvan: ]

Do you expect Uthoff to mostly play the '4' position?

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:15 Evan

8:15

Patrick Herb:

Probably a combo 3/4... he has the ball skills to play the 3, but UW isn't terribly big, so his 6-8 size could be used at the 4.

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:15 Patrick Herb

8:15

Karl Anderson:

Taylor drives, kicks out to Evans for 3! 8 points for Evans so far

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:15 Karl Anderson

UWSP is 2 and 2

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:25 Karl Anderson

Gasser's 3 rims out, Berggren grabs the rebound, passes out to Jackson who shot fakes and bounce passes to Berggren who's fouled and will shoot 2

Another drive and dish there from Taylor... you get the sense that he can penetrate just about whenever he wants. He averaged about 5 FTs per game last year... I think he can be around 7-8 per game this year.

Badgers shooting 56.5%, but UWSP is blistering the nets at 62.5%. Bo Ryan won't be happy about that. Dan Tillema leads UWSP with 10 pts. (4-for-5 shooting)

Taylor comes up with the loose ball, finds Berggren for the easy put-in

Saturday November 5, 2011 8:36 Karl Anderson
