The Game
The Liberty men’s basketball team continues Big South Conference play on the road,
Saturday, taking on defending regular-season champion Coastal Carolina inside Kimbel
Arena. The Flames look to bounce back from a five-game losing skid against the 6-1
Chanticleers, who were picked to finish second in this year’s Big South preseason poll.
Liberty holds the advantage in the all-time series, 25-22, but Coastal Carolina is currently on a four-game win streak against the Flames. The Chanticleers were the only team
to sweep Dale Layer’s squad in Big South conference play last season, with Liberty losing
by an average margin of less than five points. Tip-off for Saturday’s matchup is slated for
2 p.m.

2010-11 Big South Coach of the Year
Mountain West Conference Championship: 2003
1 NCAA Division I Tournament Appearance: 2003
2 NCAA Division II Tournament Appearances: 1996 (Sweet 16), 1998
Liberty head men’s basketball coach Dale Layer became the program’s eighth head coach on April 8, 2009,
returning to Liberty Mountain after previously serving as an assistant coach for the Flames during the 2007-08
season.
Layer and the Flames are coming off a solid season, finishing the 2010-11 campaign with a 19-13 record
and a 13-5 posting in the Big South Conference. Liberty’s win total among conference opponents set a new
standard for most Big South wins in a single season, surpassing the previous mark of 12.
Tabbed during the preseason to finish sixth in the Big South, the Flames proved to be the surprise of the
season, clinching second place in the conference standings. The Flames record-setting run in conference play
allowed Layer to become the first coach in program history to earn Big South Coach of the Year honors. The
skipper was not the only member of the program to take home conference accolades this season, as Layer’s
pupil, junior point guard Jesse Sanders was voted Big South Player of the Year.
Layer is currently in his third head coaching stint and first since leaving Colorado State in 2007. Layer, 52,
came to Liberty following a successful run as an assistant coach at BIG EAST member and nationally ranked
Marquette in the 2008-09 season, where he worked with the guards. Layer helped the Eagles to a 25-10 record
and a second round appearance in the NCAA Tournament despite lacking the full-time services of All-American
Dominic James, who was injured near the end of the season.
Layer first served as an assistant at Liberty during the 2007-08 season, helping the Flames to their best
regular-season finish since winning the 2004 Big South Championship.
Layer has also demonstrated the ability to develop a player’s talent, including former Colorado State center
Jason Smith. The seven-footer scored over 1,500 points for Layer’s Rams during his three seasons with the
program, before entering the NBA Draft following his junior campaign. Due to his development under Layer’s
tutelage, Smith was chosen with the 20th selection of the NBA Draft’s first round by the Miami Heat in 2007.
His rights were later traded to the Philadelphia 76ers. When Smith graduated from high school, he was
ranked as the 276th best player in his class and in three seasons under Layer, he developed into the 20th selection in the NBA Draft. In addition, several of Layer’s recruiting classes at Colorado State were ranked among the
top 40 nationally by various recruiting publications.
Layer has a career 306-228 record (18 years) as a head coach, including nine seasons at the helm of
Queens in Charlotte, N.C. He also served as the athletics director while at the school and started the basketball
program in 1989 from scratch at the formerly all women’s institution. Layer’s student-athletes have excelled in
the classroom, too. In Layer’s 18 seasons as a head coach, he has accompanied 46 seniors to be honored on
senior night, and all 46 earned a college degree, a 100 percent graduation rate of all players who finish their
eligibility.
After graduating from Eckerd in St. Petersburg, Fla., in 1980, Layer started his coaching career as an assistant under Jim Harley, his former coach. Before moving on to Queens, Layer spent seven of the next eight
years at Eckerd except for the 1982-83 season, when he was an assistant at Eastern Kentucky.
Layer made the jump to Division I in 1998 when Ritchie McKay took the head coaching job at Colorado
State and named him to his staff. During McKay’s two seasons with the Rams, Layer helped lead Colorado
State to the NIT Tournament in 1999, where they beat Mississippi State and Colorado, before falling to eventual
champion, California.
While with the Rams, Layer had a 103-106 record, including a 17-13 mark in 2007. In 2003, Layer led
Colorado State to the Mountain West Conference Championship and its first NCAA Tournament bid in 13 years,
falling to Duke in the first round.
Among Layer’s accomplishments, he also holds a place in two collegiate Hall of Fames. On May 12, 2011,
he was inducted into the Eckerd Hall of Fame, where he still holds the basketball program’s single-season assist
record. Layer is also a member of the Queens University Hall of Fame, receiving the nod at the conclusion of the
2009-10 season.

Jesse Sanders
- Dale Layer was named Liberty’s first-ever Big South Coach of the Year last season,
leading the Flames to a second-place finish in conference play. Layer picked up his 300th
career coaching win against 2011 Big South champion UNC Asheville on Jan. 27, as the
Flames defeated the Bulldogs in the Vines Center courtesy of a buzzer-beating layup in
overtime, 83-81.
- Point guard Jesse Sanders was the first Flame ever to be tabbed Big South Player of
the Year and earn honorable mention AP All-America recognition, averaging 11.3 points,
6.0 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game. Sanders needs 177 assists this season to break
school record of 648 held by Karl Hess. The Sugar Land, Texas native is also on pace to
become the 22nd member of Liberty’s 1,000-point club.
Home Improvement
The Flames closed out the 2010-11 season with a 12-4 (.750) record in the Vines
Center. The mark is a vast improvement after the Flames finished 8-6 (.571) inside the facility during the 2009-10 campaign. Liberty’s lowest winning percentage inside the Vines
Center occurred during the 1990-91 season, when the Flames went 3-8 (.375) during
home games. The following season, Liberty turned things around, finishing the season
14-1 at home and claiming its best winning percentage in the Vines Center (.933).
Injury Report
The Flames will be without redshirt senior guard John Brown and forward Sommy
Ogukwe both suffered season-ending injuries during the preseason.
Brown started all 32 contests for the Flames during the 2010-11 campaign and was
named to the Big South All-Conference second team. The 6-4 guard was ranked No. 8
in the country and led the conference in rebounds, pulling down 10.8 boards per game.
Along with his rebounding efforts, Brown was also the Flames’ second-leading scorer
(11.3 ppg) and finished the year with 14 double-doubles.
Ogukwe appeared in 30 contests for the Flames last season, starting in games
against Notre Dame (Nov. 14) and UNC Wilmington (Nov. 16). The Abuja, Nigeria native
was a key reserve for Layer’s squad, finishing second on team in blocked shots with 22.
Update: The Flames will miss freshman forward Tomasz Gielo for approximately four
weeks after suffering an arm injury during practice. Before arriving at Liberty, Gielo was a
member of the Polish national team, representing his home country in the 2011 U19 FIBA
World Championships and the 2011 U18 FIBA European Championships.
New Assistant Coach
On Oct. 14, Liberty Men’s Basketball Head Coach Dale Layer announced the promotion of Matt Olinger to assistant coach. Olinger takes over for Myron Guillory, who recently
resigned to pursue other career opportunities.
Olinger is in his eighth year with the program, having previously spent three seasons
as the director of basketball operations, two as a graduate assistant and two as a video
coordinator.

Jesse Sanders continues to fall just short of his fourth career triple-double, this
season. Against Lehigh (Nov. 19) he needed just two rebounds. The following night
against William & Mary, he finished three assists shy. If Sanders is able to accomplish the feat he will be the only player in Division I history to have at least one tripledouble each of his four years in college.

2011 Liberty Basketball Foreign Tour
Once every four years, the NCAA allows collegiate basketball teams to travel abroad
and compete against international squads. The Liberty men’s basketball program took full
advantage of the opportunity granted by the NCAA, turning it into a well-rounded athletic,
academic, cultural and spiritual experience.
This past summer, the Liberty men’s basketball team completed its foreign tour (Aug.
9-18), playing six exhibition games in parts of Belgium and France against various professional clubs. The Flames concluded the tour with a 4-2 record. During their nine-day journey, head coach Dale Layer and the Flames also took time to learn about European culture
through a variety of walking tours.
Game Highlights
Game 1 - Liberty 81, Excelsior 53 (Aug. 10, 2011) (Brussels, Belgium)
Jesse Sanders led the Flames with 16 points, hitting 7-of-8 shots from the field and
2-of-3 from the charity stripe. The senior point guard also chipped in six assists. David
Minaya recorded 14 tallies on the night, while John Brown finished with a double-double,
posting 12 points on 6-of-7 shooting along with 11 rebounds. Brown also tied Sanders’
assist total with six. Other Liberty players with a solid scoring performance on the night
included Chene Phillips (9) and Antwan Burrus (8).
Game 2 - Liberty 86, Ookstamp 58 (Aug. 11, 2011) (Sijsele, Belgium)

Game 3 - Liberty 79, Zwevezele 66 (Aug. 12, 2011) (Sijsele, Belgium)
John Brown paced the Flames with 16 points and nine rebounds, while John Caleb

Brussels took the lead with one minute remaining with a big three-point basket. After Brown
cut the lead to one with a free throw, the Liberty defense forced a 10-second violation on
Brussels. With the Flames having the last possession, Minaya hurled up a jumper, but the
shot fell short, leading to the 77-76 Brussels win.

Sanders Named Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award Candidate
Liberty men's basketball senior point guard Jesse Sanders has been selected as a candidate for the 2011-12
Lowe's Senior CLASS Award. Liberty's floor general is one of 30 Division I players across the country up for the prestigious award.
To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable
achievements in four areas of excellence – community, classroom, character and competition.
Sanders enters his senior year coming off a stellar 2010-11 campaign in which he was voted Big South Player of
the Year. The Sugar Land, Texas native led the league in assists with 183 (5.7 apg), while averaging 11.3 points and 6.0
rebounds per game.
Sanders was instrumental in the Flames success last season, helping lead Liberty to a second place finish in the
conference standings, setting a new program record for most conference wins with 13.
In addition to his accomplishments on the court, Sanders is a three-time Big South Presidential Honor Roll member. A business management major, he has made the dean's list on three occasions and holds a 3.44 GPA.
During his spare time, Sanders' enjoys giving back to the community and is active in Liberty's Student-Athlete
Advisory Committee (SAAC). As a member of SAAC, Sanders has helped support the growth of Special Olympics in the
Lynchburg area. In his sophomore year, Sanders spurred on a campaign to collect shoes for the organization Samaritan's
Feet, which provides footwear for children around the world that are without shoes. Sanders is also active in Fellowship of
Christian Athletes (FCA), speaking to various clubs and camps throughout Central Virginia.
An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School®, the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award
focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact
as leaders in their communities.
The 2011-12 candidate class includes three men's players who were members of last year's CoSIDA Academic
All-American team, one Associated Press All-American and seven players who are on teams ranked in the Associated
Press preseason top 25 poll.
Lowe's, an official Corporate Partner of the NCAA, will announce the men's Senior CLASS Award® winner during
the 2012 NCAA Men's Final Four®, which will be held March 31 and April 2 in New Orleans.
The 30 candidates will be narrowed to 10 finalists midway through the regular season, and those 10 names will
be placed on the official ballot.
Ballots will be distributed through a nationwide voting system to media, Division I men's and women's coaches
and fans who will select one finalist who best exemplifies excellence in the four Cs of community, classroom, character
and competition.
