The Flames look to bounce back after seeing their three-game wins streak snapped in a 77-71 defeat at Austin Peay. Howard (3-11) will step into the Vines Center, looking for back-to-back wins for the first time since the start of the season. The Bison picked up their first-ever win over the Flames, last season, taking the contest inside Burr Gymnasium, 60-53 (Dec. 15, 2012). Tipoff for the fourth installment in the all-time series is slated for 7 p.m., with the contest airing live on the Liberty Flames Sports Network, Comcast Sports South, ESPN3, MASN and the Big South Network. All About Burrus – Antwan Burrus is coming off a career-night, dropping 27 points at Austin Peay. The big man went 11-of-16 from the field, including 1-of-1 from three-point range and 4-of-4 at the charity stripe. Burrus capped the night with a three-pointer, his first made trey since hitting a 30-foot buzzer beater at Charleston Southern (Feb. 9, 2012), which landed at No.2 on ESPN SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays. Burrus enters Tuesday’s contest with 902 career points, needing 98 to join John Caleb Sanders as the 24th member of Liberty’s 1,000-point club. The redshirt senior (111) also needs two more blocks to surpass Julius Nwosu (1991-93) for second all-time on Liberty’s career blocks list. Chasing Big Brother John Caleb Sanders is steadily moving up Liberty’s all-time scoring ladder. The senior is currently in 19th with 1,125 points. Sanders needs 111 points to surpass older brother Jesse (15th, 1,235 points). John Caleb is coming off a season-high 16-point performance at Austin Peay, Saturday and has posted double-digit scoring figures in the last four games.

Retic, a transfer from Owens Community College, averaged 11.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and a team-high 5.1 assists, last season. Look for the Indianapolis, Ind., native to see action at point guard and provide Liberty with solid defense. Kemrite, a four-year letter winner for the SATCH Mavericks, averaged 22.6 points per game, 7.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists as a senior. The home schooler also tallied 3,771 points during his high school career, leaving SATCH as its all-time leader in points scored, three-pointers made and rebounds. Pekas, a three-year letterwinner at Hawley High School in Hawley, Minn., averaged 19.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 2.4 blocks, and 2.7 steals per game his senior year. Pekas was also a two-year captain, three-time all-conference selection and a member of the Minnesota All-Star team. Queens University of Charlotte Names Court in Honor of Layer While Layer was in attendance with his former players from the 1989-90 Royals men’s basketball team for a Queens University of Charlotte Hall of Fame induction ceremony, (Nov. 1) the university unveiled a new name for the performance court at Curry Arena – Dale Layer Court. “To have the court named for me was almost surreal,” Layer said. “I’m very thankful and humbled. It’s a special honor that I’m not sure I’m deserving of, but I’m very appreciative and thankful.” In regards to the surprise, Layer added, “I didn’t know what was going to happen. My parents and [Marquette head coach] Buzz Williams showed up unexpectedly. We had all 13 of our players come back, which was almost a miracle in itself. To have 25 years pass and 13 players all willing and able to come back to Charlotte was a treat. I had the chance to see a lot of people I spent a lot of years with.” Layer, who was inducted into the Queens Hall of Fame in 2010 as an individual, is credited with pioneering the men’s basketball program at Queens and helping the institution’s athletics department transition from an all-women’s department to a co-ed program. At the helm of Queens men’s basketball, Layer posted winning records in eight of his nine seasons, finishing with an all-time NCAA Division II record of 168-88 (.656). Under the skipper’s guidance, the Royals captured two regular-season Carolinas Virginias Conference (CVC) Championships, three CVC Tournament titles and appeared in the NCAA Division II Tournament twice (1996, 1998). During the Royals’ run in the 199596 campaign, Queens reached the Division II Sweet 16, finishing out the season with 25-6 posting. Layer’s players achieved a 100 percent graduation rate during his time at Queens. While Layer served as director of athletics, Queens also earned its first Hawn Cup, an all-sport conference award. Senior Citizens Liberty’s lineup contains an abundance of veteran leadership, featuring six seniors on the squad – Antwan Burrus, JR Coronado, Davon Marshall, Casey Roberts, John Caleb Sanders and Joel Vander Pol. Apart from Burrus, who was inactive last season, the group accounted for 60 percent of the team’s scoring (1,497-of-2,489 points) and 54 percent of rebounds (695-of-1,278 boards) in 2012-13. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt ... Let’s do it again! Liberty returns 12-of-14 players from its 2013 Big South Championship team, including nine players who were active along with Antwan Burrus, Ethan Layer and Wesley Alcegaire (each redshirted 2012-13 season). Layer Signs Five for 2014-15 Liberty head coach Dale Layer has announced the signing of five players for the 201415 academic year – Stavian Allen (F, 6-8, 195, Cary, N.C.), Braxton Bonds (G, 6-1, 170, Nashville, Tenn.), Evan Maxwell, (C, 6-10, 240, Scranton, Pa.), A.C.
