HEAD COACH RITCHIE McKAY
Ritchie McKay was named
the seventh men’s basketball head coach on March
26, 2007.
Liberty marks McKay’s fifth
head coaching stint, and his
first east of the Mississippi,
after stops in the Big Sky,
Mountain West, Pac-10 and WAC conferences.
McKay, 42, comes to Liberty from New
Mexico, where he spent five seasons at the
helm of the Lobos’ basketball program
(2003-07), highlighted by a Mountain West
Conference (MWC) championship in 2005.
With a 26-7 record, the conference championship earned New Mexico its first NCAA
Tournament appearance in six years and
the program’s first conference title since
1996.
Overall at New Mexico, McKay sported an
82-69 coaching record over five seasons,
including the 2005 campaign, where the
team’s 26 victories were the second-highest total in program’s 103-year history.
McKay posted a 37-23 record (.627) at
Colorado State, which included a 1999
National Invitational Tournament (NIT)
berth. The Rams defeated Mississippi State
and in-state rival Colorado at the event,
before losing to eventual NIT Tournament
champion California.
The 1999-2000 season featured the first
year of play for CSU in the Mountain West
Conference, and the Rams logged an 1812 record and a fourth-place conference
finish.
A pair of victories over nationally-ranked
opponents - the first time the program had
accomplished the feat at Colorado State in
a decade - and capturing the title at the
second annual Pearl Harbor Classic in
Hawaii were some of the highlights during
the season. College Hoops Insider magazine noticed the success of the 2000 Rams
and tabbed McKay as its MWC Coach of
the Year.
Before arriving on the Colorado State campus, McKay began his head coaching
career when he was named the head
coach at Portland State. McKay started with
the Vikings in 1995, helping revive a program which had been dormant for 15
years. McKay led the program to nine victories in the school's first season of competition (1996-97) since the early 1980s.
After the initial season at Portland State,
McKay was named one of six finalists for
the Clair Bee Award, given annually to the
coach with the most influence and innovation in the game of basketball. Two other
finalists for the honor that year were Dean
Smith of North Carolina and Mike
Krzyzewski of Duke. The 1997-98 Portland
State team followed with a 15-12 mark and
a third-place finish in the Big Sky
Conference.
Game Preview
The Flames conclude a short two-game road trip when they travel to
Blacksburg, Va., to face ACC foe, the Virginia Tech Hokies, Wednesday
evening, inside Cassell Coliseum. Tip-off is slated for 7 p.m.
Saturday’s contest will air on the Flames Sports Network (flagship WRVL
88.3 FM) with Jerry Edwards providing play-by-play. Additionally, an
Internet audio broadcast on LibertyFlames.com will be available.
Liberty Update
Liberty enters tonight’s contest coming off a 73-70 defeat at the hands of
the Campbell Camels, breaking the Flames’ three-game winning streak.
Alex McLean collected his fourth double-double of the season with 20
points and 11 rebounds in the losing cause.
Prior to the loss, Liberty topped future Big South member Presbyterian,
69-47, on Dec. 4, inside the Vines Center. McLean led the way with 25
points and nine rebounds.
The Flames entered the Presbyterian game on the heels of its secondstraight victory, an 86-81 triumph over Niagara on Dec. 1, a team that has
three-straight postseason appearances (two NCAA, one NIT) to its credit. Anthony Smith connected on a three-point bucket with 23 seconds
remaining, putting Liberty ahead for good. B.J. Jenkins tallied a careerhigh 24 points in the victory.
Alex McLean scored the buzzer beater at
East Carolina on Nov.

Rell Porter Will Play in His 100th Career Game at Virginia Tech
Senior Rell Porter has currently played in 99 contests during his Liberty
career. Tonight’s contest at Virginia Tech should mark the 100th game in
which he has appeared for the Flames. The Liberty record for games
played is 122, set by Larry Blair last year. Porter is set to become the
25th player in program history to appear in 100 career games. Should
Porter appear in every game this year, he will reach 120 career games
played during the quarterfinal of the Big South Championship, which
would place him tied for second with Karl Hess (1977-1980) and Steve
Isaacs (1980-83). The Big South record is 123, set last season by
Winthrop’s Craig Bradshaw and Philip Williams.
7 p.m.

during the same span. For the first time this season against Niagara
(Dec.1) Liberty eclipsed the 60-percent shooting mark. During Liberty’s
first six games, the team shot 40.6 percent from the floor and 29.0 percent from three-point range. Liberty was 2-4 during that span.

The honoring of Dr. Falwell’s thumbprint on the athletics department
began before the passing of the renowned visionary. During
Homecoming 2006, Liberty retired the first ever football jersey in Dr.
Falwell’s honor. After Dr. Falwell’s passing, a new tradition began with
the start of the 2007 football season. Prior to the start of every home
football game, a giant flag with the number 71 is hoisted up the flagpole
in a mini-pregame ceremony. The number 71 signifies the year, 1971,
when Liberty first opened its doors.

Kyle Ohman Stepping Up
Sophmore Kyle Ohman has scored 66 points through the Flames’ first
10 games this season. Last year, Ohman only scored eight points during Liberty’s 31 total games. Ohman has scored in seven out of nine
games. Ohman was held scoreless again at Kentucky on Nov. 21 after
battling illness all day.

late Liberty University Founder and Chancellor, Dr. Jerry Falwell. Ten Liberty University student-athletes served as honorable pallbearers at the May 22 funeral, reflecting on Dr. Falwell’s love for athletics.
Road Woes
The Flames have lost 28 of their last 32 road games, dating back to the start of the 2005-06 season.
Three of the wins during that span came last season. A 66-63 victory at Charleston Southern on Jan.
22, a 118-108 victory at VMI on Feb. 21 and a 64-48 win at Radford on Feb. 24. The victory in
Lexington was the Flames first since Dec. 7, 1991, and the win at Radford was Liberty’s first since
Feb. 22, 1997. The fourth road win was a 55-53 triumph at East Carolina on Nov. 17.
TeeJay Bannister Named Top Newcomer to the Big South
TeeJay Bannister, a transfer from Virginia, was named by the Sporting News as the top newcomer
in the Big South Conference. This is the second-straight year a member of the Flames has earned
such an honor. Last season, Dwight Brewington, a transfer from Providence, earned the same accolade from CBS Sportsline.com.
Making the List
Alex McLean was named to the Big South preseason all-conference team in Lindy’s and Athlon
Sports’ publications. McLean averaged 14.5 points per game, while finishing second in the conference with 8.9 rebounds per game, last season.
Anthony Smith joined McLean on the Lindy’s preseason all-conference team. Smith averaged 11.4
points and 3.3 rebounds per game, while being the only member of the team to start every game,
last season.
December Record
Overall, Liberty has posted a 71-84 record, 49-25 at home, 17-50 on the road and 6-11 at a neutral
location during the month of December. Since the 2000-01 season, Ritchie McKay has a 34-21
record in the month.
Flames Tabbed to Finish Sixth in Big South
The Liberty Flames were selected to finish sixth out of eight teams in the Big South Conference for
the 2007-08 season, as voted on by the conference’s head coaches, sports information directors and
members of the media.
Liberty is coming off a 14-17 season and a third-place finish in the Big South. The Flames went 8-6
in conference play a year ago, after being picked to finish fifth in last year’s preseason poll. High
Point (216) edged out three-time defending conference champion Winthrop (214) by a narrow margin to be tabbed preseason favorite to win the conference championship.
The voting panel agreed on the top two choices, but spots three through six were closely bunched.
VMI (147) was picked to finish third, while Coastal Carolina (134 points) was picked to finish in the
fourth position. UNC Asheville (119) found themselves picked fifth, with Liberty (108) in the sixth position. Charleston Southern (63) and Radford (43) rounded out the preseason poll.
Alex McLean Scores 600th Career Point
Alex McLean tallied 20 points in the Flames’ loss at Campbell Saturday moving him over the 600career point mark. McLean has now scored 615 points during his Liberty career, making the senior
from Bay Shore, N.Y., the 36th player in program history to reach the 600-milestone.
Foul Trouble
Senior TeeJay Bannister fouled out of the first three games in which he appeared this season.
Bannister collected four fouls in the following five games he appeared in for Liberty. Bannister was
charged with only two fouls on Dec. 4 against Presbyterian, marking the first time during his Liberty
career that he did not commit at least four fouls. On Saturday Bannister was back to committing four
fouls at Campbell.
In the previous 76 career games in which he has played, Bannister fouled out only five times. All 76
of those games were played when Bannister was enrolled at Virginia.
Alex McLean Tabbed Big South Player of the Week
Alex McLean was selected the Big South Conference Choice Hotels Men’s Basketball Player of the
Week, for games played from Nov. 26-Dec. 2.
McLean averaged 22.5 points and 9.5 rebounds for the week, leading Liberty to home victories over
Longwood and Niagara. McLean scored 33 points on 13-of-19 shooting and grabbed 11 caroms
against the Lancers on Nov. 27. The 33 points were a national high for the day. McLean also recorded two assists, one block and a steal, notching his third double-double of the season in 30 minutes
of action.
On Dec. 1 against Niagara, McLean tallied 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting and pulled down eight
rebounds, helping Liberty defeat the Purple Eagles, a team that made the NCAA Tournament two of
the past three seasons. Niagara reached the NIT in between those two NCAA postseason runs.
McLean shot 69.2 percent from the field for the week on 18-of-26 shooting, while shooting 72.7 percent (8-of-11) from the charity stripe and chipping in 2.5 assists per game.
This is McLean’s second time earning player of the week honors. The Big South named McLean its
player of the week on Feb. 25, 2007, the week he set new career highs with 40 points and 19
rebounds at VMI.
Away From Home
Liberty started the year playing five of its first six games away from the Vines Center. The last time
the Flames started a season playing five of six games outside of Lynchburg was the 2001-02 season. That season, the Flames played at Vanderbilt, Appalachian State and at the Hawaii Pacific
Thanksgiving Classic. Liberty went 1-5 during that span, on its way to a 5-25 season.
Anthony Smith’s Starting Streak
Junior Anthony Smith has started 43-straight contests, dating back to his freshman year. The current streak started on Feb. 25, 2006, when Liberty traveled to High Point. The span is the longest
for a Flame since Larry Blair started 65-straight contests, a streak that spanned three seasons.
Blair’s streak started on Jan. 1, 2005, at Seton Hall and was snapped when he was left out of the
starting lineup at High Point on Jan. 17, 2007.
Anthony Smith’s Rebounds Are Up
Junior Anthony Smith is pulling down nearly one more rebounds per game this season than last year
(4.2 to 3.3). Smith’s rebound numbers are up, but his assists are down. Last season, Smith dished
out 2.4 assists per game. So far this season, he is only averaging 0.9 assist per contest.
Flames Facing New Foes This Year
Liberty's season opener against San Diego State was the first of four games this season versus an
opponent that Liberty had never previously faced. In addition to the Aztecs, Liberty’s non-conference
schedule has or will pit the Flames up against Portland, Coker and Nyack, all first-time Liberty opponents on the hardwood.
McKay Inks Highly Anticipated Recruiting Class
In his first recruiting class at Liberty, head men’s basketball coach Ritchie McKay and staff have
signed Seth Curry, Brolin Floyd, Sammy Jackson, Mike Lewis, Carter McMasters and Austin Smith
to national letters of intent for the 2008-09 academic year.
“I can’t remember ever having a class like the one we were able to attract our first year at Liberty,”
said McKay, who has been a head coach in the Pac-10, Mountain West, Western Athletic and Big
Sky Conferences.
“Typically it takes a little bit of time to establish yourself in an unfamiliar region of the country,”
added McKay. “What Liberty University offers a student-athlete is really reflected in the caliber
of the individual and the caliber of the player we were able to sign.”
Curry is the son of one of the NBA’s most prolific three-point shooters, Dell Curry. A 6-0 combo guard
from Charlotte, N.C., Curry has been a huge piece to Charlotte Christian’s success over the past few
years. As a junior, Curry averaged 13.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game for
a team that had four starters in double figures in scoring. Last season, Curry shot 50 percent from
the field, earning CISAA all-conference honors. In his three years on the varsity squad, Charlotte
Christian has amassed an 83-15 record, reaching the state final in 2006.
Floyd hails from Ocala, Fla., and plays for Shores Christian School. As a junior, the 6-5, 210- pound
guard, averaged 17.8 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 3.2 steals, leading Shores Christian to
the NACA National Championship game.
Jackson is a 6-5 forward out of Jacksonville Junior College in Jacksonville, Texas. The Arlington,
Texas native is currently playing his second year of junior college ball, after prepping at Bowie High
School.
Lewis signs with the Flames out of Charis Prep in Goldsboro, N.C., the same prep school Where
Liberty’s Armon Jones spent the 2006 season. Lewis, a 5-7 guard from Upper Marlboro, Md., was a
four-year starter at Suitland, averaging 18.4 points, 7.0 assists and 3.0 steals per game as a senior.
Lewis led Suitland to a 22-5 record as a senior, falling in the regional championship game to Eleanor
Roosevelt, 55-53.
McMasters hails from Chattanooga, Tenn., where he will be a 2008 graduate of Grace Academy. The
6-11 forward averaged 14.0 points, 11.0 rebounds and 5.0 blocks per game as a junior at Grace,
helping his team to the regional finals. The all-state honoree alters the game, evident by his 20 shots
redirected last season.
Smith, a 6-9 forward from Tucson, Ariz., transferred to Ironwood Ridge from Mountain View. While
at Mountain View as junior, Smith averaged 11.6 points and 6.8 rebounds per game.
Big South Highs
Liberty shot 61.7 percent (29-of-47) from the floor on Dec. 1 against Niagara and 57.9 percent (33of-57) on Nov. 27 against Longwood. Those numbers serve as the top two shooting performances
of any Big South squad this season.
Shooting 60 Percent or Higher
Liberty shot 61.7 percent (29-of-47) from the floor on Dec. 1 against Niagara. This was the first time
Liberty has reached the 60-percent mark since Feb. 21, 2007 at VMI (64.4). The Flames reached
60 percent shooting in three games last season. This season, the team has reached the number in
its eighth game, but didn’t register a 60-percent shooting contest till game No. 21 last season.
Alex McLean Grabbing the Boards
Senior Alex McLean grabbed 8.9 rebounds per game last season. The figure was the best rebounding season by a Flame since Jason Dixon grabbed 9.0 caroms per contest during the 1995 campaign. McLean’s rebounding numbers are slightly down this season at 8.6 rebounds per game.
What a Difference a Year Makes
A new coach means a new role for walk-on Kyle Ohman. Saturday will mark the 11th game of the
season and could account for the 11th contest Ohman appears in this year. Ohman appeared only
in 10 contests all of last season.
B.J. Jenkins’ Production Goes Up with Minutes
B.J. Jenkins has increased his playing time by 18.5 minutes per game since his freshman season
last year. Production is up all around for Jenkins, who is enjoying a 8.5 point increase in his scoring average. Jenkins is pulling down 2.8 more rebounds this season and dishing out 1.9 more
assists.

Game 1

Liberty lost its seventh-straight season
opener as San Diego State got hot at the
right time to defeat the Flames, 62-50, on
the opening evening of Fresno State’s
World Vision Classic, at the World Vision
Classic. The contest started out as a defensive juggernaut. San Diego staked themselves to a 7-4 lead on a three-point basket
by Tim Shelton at the 16:31 mark. Neither
team added to its point total over the next
two minutes until Rell Porter hit the first end
of two free throws for the Flames, cutting
the lead to 7-5 at 14:43. Billy White hit a
jumper on the next possession to push the
lead to 9-5 for the Aztecs. Once again, neither squad could find the basket until the
9:48 mark when Anthony Smith hit a threepoint bucket, cutting the lead to 9-8 with
9:48 left in the opening period.Smith then
stole the ball from Kyle Spain, which led to
TeeJay Bannister dishing an assist to
Porter to give Liberty its first lead of the
game, 10-9, with 8:55 remaining. San
Diego State bounced back with six-straight
points, with the run being capped by a Billy
White dunk to take a 15-10 lead with 5:59
remaining. Liberty cut the lead back to two
points, 15-13, on a Kyle Ohman three-point
basket on the very next position. The
Aztecs then made a push near the end of
the half, taking a 10-point advantage, 2717, courtesy of a 12-4 spurt, finished by a
three-point bucket by Lorrenzo Wade with
45 seconds left in the first half. Fresno
State got hot to start the second half, going
on a 14-3 run capped by a Ryan Amoroso
jumper, extending its lead to 43-22, with
12:50 remaining. The Aztecs and the
Flames went back and forth for the remainder of the game, concluding with a Liberty
6-0 run to finish the game, 62-50. The
Flames were led by Porter who tied a
career-best with 14 points. Smith assisted
with 11 points, while Bannister chipped in
seven points in the losing cause. Alex
McLean led all rebounders with seven caroms.
Game 2
Fresno, Calif.
Liberty kept the game close throughout, but
was never able to completely overcome
homestanding Fresno State, falling to the
Bulldogs, 71-62, at the Save Mart Center
on the second day of the World Vision
Classic. Liberty started the evening hot, as
they jumped out to a seven-point advantage, 15-8, courtesy of an Alex McLean
bucket at the 10:36 mark. Fresno State
regained the lead, 16-15, after a Hector
Hernandez bucket off a Kevin Bell pass
with 6:53 remaining, capping a 7-0 run. The
Bulldogs extended their narrow lead to four
points, 21-17, after a Bryan Harvey threepoint basket with 5:43 remaining. Liberty
pulled back within one point after an
Anthony Smith jumper and a Rell Porter
bucket at the 3:25 mark, cutting the lead,
22-21. Fresno State exploded and ended
the half on an 8-2 run, including two threepoint baskets by Eddie Miller, going into the
intermission with a 30-23 lead. Fresno
State came out of the break and extended
its lead to 12, courtesy of a Dwight O’Neil
lay-up with 17:25 left in the contest, giving
the Bulldogs the 37-25 advantage. Liberty
continued to keep the game close, cutting
the lead back down to five, 55-50, in front
of the home standing crowd, when B.J.
Jenkins hit the front end of a two-shot free
throw. The made shot from the charity strip
capped an 8-2 run with 3:44 remaining in
the game. Fresno State bounced right
back, thanks in part to the free throw shooting of Bell and Harvey. The duo went 11-of12 from the line to close out the game on
16-7 run, giving Fresno Stats the 71-62
win. Smith led the Flames with 17 points on
7-of-14 shooting, and Jenkins added 16
points and a team-high four assists.
McLean collected his first double-double of
the season and 13th of his career, scoring
10 points and grabbing a game-high 14
rebounds.

Game 3
Fresno, Calif.
Liberty fell in its final game of Fresno
State’s World Vision Classic to the Portland
Pilots, 73-62, inside the Save Mart Center.
In a closely play first half, the Pilots held
the advantage on the scoreboard the
majority of the period. The Pilots drew first
blood, taking a quick 4-0 lead after a Luke
Sikma jumper at 17:47. After pushing the
led to 8-4 at the 16:18 mark on another
Sikma basket, Liberty tied the game, 8-8,
for the first time since the opening tip-off,
when TeeJay Bannister scored coming out
of the first media timeout, with 15:17
remaining in the opening stanza. After a
turnover by Portland’s Kramer Knutson,
guard Anthony Smith gave Liberty its first
lead of the contest with a driving lay-up at
14:35, for a 10-8 Flames’ advantage. The
Pilots came roaring back with a 12-3 run, to
take a 20-13 lead, capped by a wide-open
three-point bucket by Nik Raivio at 11:01.
The Flames fought back on the heels of a
13-5 run, cutting the lead to 32-31 with 3:12
remaining. Two Robin Smeulders’ free
throws with 35 seconds left sent the Pilots
into intermission with a 34-31 advantage.
Sloppy play by the Flames, including three
turnovers, helped the Pilots extend its lead
to nine points, 53-44, with 10:58 remaining.
Portland later extended its lead to 63-50 on
a three-point bucket by Jared Stohl, with
7:58 remaining. Liberty was able to trim the
Pilot lead back to nine points, 66-57, on a
Smith layup with 2:32 remaining. It was as
close as the Flames would get in the contest’s closing minutes, as Portland closed
out the game with a double-digit victory, 7362. McLean led the Flames by collecting
his second-straight double-double with 19
points and 10 rebounds.
Game 4
Lynchburg, Va.
After only being back in Lynchburg for
roughly 24 hours, the Liberty Flames
showed no signs of fatigue, as they cruised
to a 64-49 victory over the Coker Cobras,
inside the Vines Center. Due to a canceled
flight on Sunday night in Fresno, following
the Flames’ trip west for Fresno State’s
World Vision Classic, Liberty’s squad was
not fully back home until 6 p.m., on Monday
night. Early in the game, Coker’s Lukas
Varaga picked the pocket of B.J. Jenkins
on the first possession of the contest, leading to a basket to stake Cobras to a quick
2-0 lead. But, the advantage was shortlived as the Flames quickly shifted into
high-gear. Liberty raced to a 22-6 lead,
courtesy of a 22-4 run, capped by an
Anthony Smith bucket at 9:47. The Cobras
halted the run with a three-point basket by
Ryan Fulwood at the 9:32 mark, cutting the
score to 22-9. The Flames cruised down
the court on the next possession, matching
the three-point bucket with a Kyle Ohman
marker at 9:10, pushing the score to 25-9.
Coker temporarily halted the streaking
Flames, going on a 10-2 run, which included three-point buckets by Fulwood and
Blake Terrell. The quick surge was capped
by a Sebastian Lacayo basket in the paint
at 6:12, cutting Liberty’s advantage to
points, 29-19. Both squads went point-forpoint for the final six minutes of the first
stanza. Rell Porter grabbed an offensive
rebound off a Smith miss and stuck it back,
allowing the Flames to enter the intermission with a 41-30 lead. The Flames turned
up the heat on the Cobras exiting halftime,
quickly extending the lead to 53-35, at
13:56 remaining, courtesy of two Ohman
three-point buckets and five-straight points
by Alex McLean. Ohman continued his hot
shooting, hitting two more three-point buckets, pushing the Flames’ lead to 61-42 with
6:06 left in the contest. Coker managed a
7-1 spurt, capped by another Fulwood
three pointer, at 3:28. And that would be as
close as the Cobras would get, as Coker
managed just one point over the remaining
three minutes of play. Smith led the way
with a game-high 15 points and 11
rebounds. Smith’s double-double is his first
of the year and third of his career. Ohman,
who started his first collegiate game, set
career highs with 15 points, including
three-point field goals.

Game 5
Greenville, N.C.
Alex McLean rebounded a TeeJay
Bannister miss and laid the game-winning
bucket in with eight-tenths of a second
remaining, sending Liberty to a 55-53 victory over East Carolina, Saturday night
inside the Minges Coliseum. Liberty led the
entire game until the closing second of the
contest. Liberty milked the clock with under
a minute to play, but an Anthony Smith
miss from behind the arc at the shot clock’s
expiration fell right into the hands of Brock
Young, the freshman guard for the Pirates.
Young pushed ball down the court on a fast
break, and was fouled by McLean in the
lane with 18 seconds remaining. Young
went to the line for two shots, sinking the
first, tying the game, 53-53. Liberty called a
timeout in between attempts and the freeze
worked, as Young missed his second
attempt. McLean grabbed the rebound and
sent the outlet pass to Bannister with 16
seconds on the clock. Bannister pushed
the ball toward the hole, setting the stage
for the buzzer beater. Bannister dribble
penetrated and shot a fade away in the
lane with three seconds left. McLean and
Blair battled for the rebound, but McLean
had inside position. The Liberty senior then
laid in the game winner with eight-tenths of
a second remaining, sending the Flames to
a 55-53 victory. Jenkins led Liberty with a
career-high 22 points on 9-of-15 shooting.

Game 6
Lexington, Ky.
The Kentucky Wildcats had two weeks to
mull over their 84-68 loss to Gardner-Webb
in the 2K College Sports Classic. The time
off worked against the Flames, as Liberty
fell, 80-54, to Kentucky in its first game
since the setback, inside the famed Rupp
Arena. With the bad taste of its last contest
against Gardner-Webb still in its mouth,
Kentucky wasted no time getting started,
opening the contest on a 12-2 run. The
burst was finished off by Ramel Bradley’s
second three-point bucket at the 14:55
mark. Liberty got things going with a little
spurt of its own, cutting the lead down to
eight, 20-12, with 6:58 remaining. The
Flames received two free throws from
Russell Monroe, another from TeeJay
Bannister and Alex McLean, followed by
buckets from Anthony Smith and McLean
during the scoring span. Liberty continued
to trim the margin, getting it to seven, 2417, after a Porter three-point bucket, followed by a McLean lay up at 3:27. But that
would be as close as the Flames would
get. Kentucky closed out the half on a 12-4
run, capped by a Joe Crawford three-point
bucket with 34 seconds left in the first stanza, taking a 36-21 lead into the break. The
Wildcats came out of the intermission gunning, quickly extending their lead to 17
when Patterson hit two free throws at
17:20, pushing the score to 42-25. The
Flames never got closer, falling by 26
points. The Flames were led by McLean’s
15 points and five rebounds. Smith chipped
in 10 points, while B.J. Jenkins scored nine
points and grabbed four rebounds. Porter
added eight points and grabbed five of the
Flames’ 15 offensive rebounds.

Game 7
Lynchburg, Va.
After starting the season with five of its first
six contests away from the friendly confines
of the Vines Center, Liberty fired on all cylinders in the Flames first home game in two
weeks, cruising to a 91-67 victory over the
Longwood Lancers Tuesday night. From the
opening tip, Liberty controlled the contest.
Alex McLean scored nine points in the first
four minutes helping the Flames spring to
an early 14-2 advantage. A TeeJay
Bannister three-point bucket just 4:07 into
the contest capped the opening scoring
burst. Anthony Smith scored 11-straight
points for the Flames, increasing the Liberty
lead to 25-10, with 11:06 remaining in the
opening stanza. Longwood cut the lead
down to nine, courtesy of a 10-4 run, finished by a made free throw by Ryan Bogan,
with 7:50 left in the firsthalf. The Flames
responded with a 12-2 spurt of their own to
push their lead to 20 points, their largest of
the opening stanza at 42-22, with 3:05
remaining. Over the half’s final three minutes, Longwood was only able to cut the
Flames’ advantage by a point to 46-27 at the
break. The Flames started the second half
by outscoring the Lancers, 17-9. McLean
capped the surge by hitting the second of
two foul shots on a trip to the charity strip
with 13:53 left to up the Liberty lead to 6336. The Flames continued to control the
game, reaching its biggest lead of the game,
35, on a three-point bucket by Kyle Ohman
with 5:47 remaining to make it, 85-50. After
Bogan connected on two free throws,
Nathan Campbell connected on his first shot
of the season, collecting his first collegiate
points with 5:04 left in the game, pushing
the lead back to 35 at 87-52. During the
game’s final five minutes, Longwood held a
15-4 scoring advantage, but it wasn’t
enough in a 91-67 Flames’ victory. McLean
paced Liberty with his third double-double of
the year and 15th of his career. The senior
scored 33 points and grabbed 11 caroms,
both game highs

Game 8
Lynchburg, Va.
Anthony Smith hit a three-point bucket with
23 second remaining, allowing Liberty to
regain the lead, on the Flames’ way to an
86-81 triumph over Niagara, inside the
Vines Center. The game’s final moments
created a dramatic finish of an evenly
played contest. Ahead 78-77, Niagara
came down the court and missed a lay-up
by Demetriu Williamson with 37 seconds
left. Kyle Ohman grabbed the defensive
rebound, setting the stage for the game’s
finish. Smith took a TeeJay Bannister handoff after two set screens, knocking down the
20-footer at the top of the key, staking
Liberty
to
an
80-78
advantage.
Niagara called a timeout, setting the stage
for what looked like the game’s final play.
With nine seconds on the clock, Tyrone
Lewis tried to go in for a lay-up before being
blocked on the backside by Ohman. Alex
McLean grabbed the loose-ball rebound,
prompting the game’s dramatic climax.
McLean was fouled by Andrew Patterson
with eight seconds left. Liberty was in the
double-bonus, giving McLean two free
attempts from the free throw line. While
McLean knocked down his first attempt,
extending the lead to 81-78, Niagara head
coach Joe Mihalich received a double technical foul. Liberty was granted four more
free throws, which B.J. Jenkins knocked
down all four, pushing the lead up to seven,
85-78. McLean still had one more attempt,
which he hit, extending Liberty to a 86-78
lead and sealing the victory. All five Liberty
starters reached double figures with Jenkins
leading the way with a game-high 24 points
on 7-of-10 shooting. Jenkins also grabbed
four rebounds and dished out four assists.
Bannister tallied 16 points and dished out a
game-high seven assists, while tying a
career high with five rebounds.

Game 9
Lynchburg, Va.
After being named Big South Conference
Player of the Week yesterday, Alex McLean
continued his dynamic play by scoring 25
points, leading Liberty to its third-straight
victory. The Flames topped the Presbyterian
Blue Hose, 69-47, inside the Vines Center.
Down 3-0, Liberty missed its first four shots
of the contest before McLean slammed
home two points at 16:54, cutting the Blue
Hose lead to one, 3-2. McLean’s bucket
sparked Liberty to an 11-2 surge, finished by
a B.J. Jenkins jumper from the right elbow at
11:40. Jenkins’ bucket gave Liberty an 11-5
lead. Liberty quickly pushed the lead to 15
points, 27-12, when McLean took a Jenkins
pass to the basket at 5:05. The Flames were
able to maintain the sizeable advantage for
the duration of the first half, heading into the
break with an 18-point advantage after a
McLean bucket at 1:00. The Blue Hose
stormed out of the intermission reeling off a
14-1 run, capped by a John Johnson bucket
at 16:02, to cut the Liberty lead to five, 3631. Liberty halted the Presbyterian surge
with a McLean bucket at 15:48, extending
the lead to 38-31. Kyle Ohman scored fivestraight points to push Liberty’s lead back to
nine, 48-37, at the 12:30 mark. And the Blue
Hose would get no closer, as the Flames
closed out the game holding a 21-10 advantage, a run which included five-straight
points by Tim Layer. McLean was a force
down low, leading the Flames with 25 points
on 11-of-17 shooting, while grabbing nine
caroms, one short of his fourth double-double of the season.
Game 10
Buies Creek, N.C.
Despite 20 points by Alex McLean and B.J.
Jenkins, the Liberty Flames saw their three
game-winning streak halted, suffering a
tightly-contested 73-70 setback to the
Campbell Fighting Camels, at Carter Gym.
Neither team gained much of an advantage
early on, as the two squads traded baskets
over the first four minutes of play. A threepoint basket by Jake Wohlfeil at the 15:21
mark gave the Camels the lead, which they
would hold until the waning seconds of the
first half. Five minutes later, TeeJay
Bannister found McLean open and the senior connected on a jumper with 9:52 left to
play in the first, cutting Campbell’s lead to
three points, 15-12. The homestanding
Camels proceeded to net the next eight
points, closing the 8-0 run on a Preston
Dodson jumper at the 7:16 mark to stake
Campbell to a 23-12 lead. Following a pair
of free throws from Jenkins and a lay-up by
Rodriguez with 4:45 left before the break,
Liberty strung together a 15-3 run over the
remainder of the half. Liberty scored the first
three points of the second half to open its
first edge since netting the game’s opening
bucket, 37-34 at 18:35. Jenkins tallied all
three markers on a jumper on the Flames’
first possession of the half and, after a
Campbell turnover and foul, hit 1-of-2 from
the charity stripe. The teams exchanged the
lead over the next three minutes play until
two made free throws by McLean started a
9-3 run for the Flames at 14:09. Campbell
erased the Liberty advantage over the next
several minutes, taking back the lead, 5554, on a layup by Vejraska with 7:32 left.
After a Rodriguez bucket moved the
Campbell lead back to four in the final
minute, Jenkins connected on a three-pointer with 29 seconds left to make it, 71-70.
The Flames forced a turnover on the
Camels’ next trip down the floor, setting up a
chance to take the lead with 18 seconds left.
However, Liberty would miss a jumper with
seven seconds left and turn the ball over on
a walk after getting the offensive rebound.
Wohlfeil hit two foul shots in the closing seconds to seal a 73-70 victory for Campbell.
McLean posted a double-double with 20
points and 11 rebounds.
