HEAD COACH RITCHIE McKAY
Ritchie McKay was named
Liberty’s 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, came 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
Liberty continues a three-game road trip, as they conclude the annual
“Beach Tour”, with the Charleston Southern Buccaneers, Monday
evening, inside the CSU Field House. Tip-off is set for 7:30 p.m.
Saturday’s contest will have a radio broadcast that 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. There will also be a live video stream
of the broadcast via the Big South EDGE, available on
BigSouthSports.com.
Liberty Update
The Flames enter tonight’s contest on the heels of a 65-51 triumph at
Coastal Carolina on Saturday. Anthony Smith became the 20th player in
Liberty program history to reach the 1,000 career point plateau, as the
junior scored 17 points in the victory to reach the milestone.
Prior to Saturday’s win, the Flames suffered a 59-50 setback to Winthrop
on Feb. 12, despite Alex McLean’s ninth double-double in his last 12
games. McLean led all scorers with 16 points and pulled down 11
rebounds, his last carom marked the 500th of his career.
Liberty entered the Winthrop game on the heels of a resounding 83-54
victory over the league-leading UNC Asheville Bulldogs on Feb. 9.
Anthony Smith led all scorers with 18 points, while McLean collected his
11th double-double of the season, tallying 13 points and 10 rebounds.
B.J. Jenkins added career highs in rebounds (9), assists (8) and steals (5)
to go with his 13 markers.

When Holding Opponents Under 70
The Flames are 12-5 when their opponents score less than 70 points and
2-7 when their opposition tallies more than 70 points. Liberty’s wins over
Niagara (86-81) and VMI (87-81) are the two occasions when Liberty won
a game while allowing over 70 points.
Road Woes
The Flames have lost 34 of their last 40 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, the fifth road win was
on Jan. 28 at VMI, 87-81 and the sixth was a 65-51 triumph at Charleston
Southern on Saturday.
Alex McLean Grabs 500th Career Rebound
Senior Alex McLean pulled down his 500th career rebound against
Winthrop on Feb. 12. The milestone makes McLean the only two-year
letterwinner in program history to accomplish such a feat in two years. All
other members of Liberty’s 500 rebound club played at least three seasons on Liberty Mountain. McLean joined Jason Dixon (467) and Dan
Kennard (471) as the only two-year letterwinners to reach the 400
rebound milestone. Dixon and McLean are the only ones to accomplish
the feat since Liberty’s move to NCAA Division I.
Anthony Smith Reaches 1,000 Career Points
Junior Anthony Smith scored 17 points while eclipsing the 1,000-point
plateau on Saturday at Coastal Carolina. With 15 points scored on Jan.
21 versus Coastal Carolina, Smith became the 20th player in program
history, and the ninth since Liberty moved to Division I, to score 900
career points. Every player in program history who has scored at least
900 career points has reached the 1,000-point plateau.
Next on the Scoring List for Anthony Smith
With 1,004 career points, Anthony Smith sits 19th all-time in Liberty
annals for scoring, having passed Mike Minett (1,001) with his 17-point
performance Saturday at Coastal Carolina. Next on the list is Mike Goad
(1,013), who owns the 18th spot on Liberty’s career scoring list. Goad
was a two-year letterwinner from 1974-75.
Freshman First
Jeremy Anderson became the first Flame freshman to score 20 or more
points in a game since David Dees scored 22 points against St.

7-0 in non-conference contests. With no remaining home non-conference games this year, the
Flames went undefeated in home non-conference games for the first time since the 1995-96 season. That season, Liberty went 4-0 at home during the non-conference portion of its schedule.
Since moving to the NCAA Division I level, Liberty has never gone undefeated at home during a nonconference slate when playing more than four non-conference contests.
TeeJay Bannister Lending an Assist
TeeJay Bannister is dishing out 7.2 assists per game this year, which is currently ranked No. 4 in
the nation. The average is the highest by a Flame since Kenny Gunn registered 6.5 helpers during
the 1983-84 campaign. Bannister wasn’t born until the June following that season.
Currently Bannister’s assist average is the highest of any senior in program history, topping Karl
Hess and his 5.5 apg average in 1980, from the top spot.

record in the month.

games to reach the 10-win mark.

Alex McLean is second in the conference with 12 double-doubles this season and has six in his last
eight games, and has eight in his last 13 games. Arizona Reid of High Point leads the league with
15. Reid has nearly matched McLean over the same span, collecting five double-doubles in his last
eight games and nine in his last 13 contests.

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.
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 86 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.

Anthony Smith’s Starting Streak
Junior Anthony Smith’s 56-straight start streak came to an end on Feb. 9. The streak dated back to
his freshman year. It began on Feb. 25, 2006, when Liberty traveled to High Point.
The span was 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.
Ranking in the Conference
Liberty ranks first in the conference in 3-point shooting (37.8) and second in the conference in free
throw percentage (72.9) and in 3-point field goal defense (32.1). Alex McLean ranks seventh in the
conference in scoring (15.7) while TeeJay Bannister holds the No. 2 spot for assists (7.2).
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 was McLean’s second time earning conference 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 Rebounds Are Up
Junior Anthony Smith is pulling down 1.1 more rebounds per game this season than last year (4.4
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 1.1 assist per contest.
Rell Porter Reaches 100 Career Games
Senior Rell Porter has currently played in 115 contests during his Liberty career. The Liberty record
for games played is 122, set by Larry Blair last year. Porter became the 25th player in program history to appear in 100 career games against Virginia Tech on Dec. 19. 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.
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 two of the top four shooting performances of any Big South squad this season. The Niagara games serves as tops on the list versus a Division I opponent.
Anthony Smith Chosen to Honor a Visionary
Junior Anthony Smith was one of 10 student-athletes who served as an honorary pallbearer for the
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.
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 year. This season, the team has reached the number during its
eighth game, as compared to last year when the team hit the 60-percent mark on game No. 21.
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 roughly the same this season, as he averages 8.9
rebounds per game this year.
What a Difference a Year Makes
A new coach means a new role for walk-on Kyle Ohman. Saturday will mark the 277th game of the
season and could account for the 27th contest Ohman appears in this year. Ohman appeared in only
10 contests all of last season.
B.J. Jenkins’ Production Goes Up with Minutes
B.J. Jenkins has increased his playing time by 17.4 minutes per game since his freshman season
last year. Production is up all around for Jenkins, who is enjoying an average 5.3 point increase in
his scoring average. Jenkins is pulling down 2.8 more rebounds this season and dishing out 1.3
more assists.
Jeremy Anderson Makes Debut
Freshman Jeremy Anderson appeared in his first contest for the Flames this season on Dec. 15 at
Campbell after battling an injury to his right foot. Anderson scored six points on 2-of-4 shooting,
while playing 15 minutes.

Packing Them In
There were 21,298 fans that attended Liberty’s Nov. 21 contest at Kentucky, marking the secondhighest attended Liberty men’s basketball game. When Liberty last played in the Rupp Arena,
22,717 fans attended the contest, marking the largest crowd to ever witness a Liberty men’s basketball game.
Having East Carolina’s Number
On Nov. 17, Liberty defeated East Carolina for the second-straight season. On Dec. 2, 2006, the
Flames topped the Pirates, 64-56. The win served as Liberty’s first ever against East Carolina in six
tries and the program’s first win against a member of Conference USA.
The 55-53 victory over the Pirates served as the program’s second all-time win over a Conference
USA program.
Liberty in Home Big South Openers
Jan. 19 marked the 17th home Big South opener for the Flames. Liberty is now 10-7 all-time in
Big South openers, including winning six straight. Last year the Flames beat Radford 80-66.
Liberty In Big South Openers
The Jan. 12 contest at UNC Asheville marked the 17th Big South opener for the Flames. Liberty
is now 4-13 all-time record in Big South openers after falling 74-70 to UNC Asheville. The Flames
have opened a conference season with UNC Asheville on six occasions, all resulting in Bulldog
wins. UNCA is 3-0 inside the Vines Center and 3-0 inside the Justice Center against Liberty when
opening Big South play.
Pirates Jump Start B.J. Jenkins
B.J. Jenkins tallied a then career-best 22 points on Nov. 17 against East Carolina. The sophomore
from Virginia Beach, Va., is now averaging 17.0 points over his two career games against East
Carolina.
Jenkins scored 12 markers last year against the Pirates, on Dec. 2, 2006. Jenkins’ performance
helped garner him Big South Freshman of the Week honors on Dec. 4, 2006.
Liberty Honors Dr. Falwell Inside the Vines Center
In its continuing efforts to honor Dr. Jerry Falwell, the Liberty athletics department unveiled a new
memorial to the University’s founder and former chancellor.
During the Nov. 28 Convocation, inside the Vines Center, Liberty’s Director of Athletics Jeff Barber
announced that the number 71 will hang from the rafters on a jersey to signify Dr. Falwell’s impact
on Liberty University and its athletics department.
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. The Nov. 28 ceremony took place prior to the featured
Convocation speaker, Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee.
Liberty Shooting Well At Home
The Flames have shot 51.4 percent (314-of-611) from the floor during their 11 home games, all of
which resulted in wins. Liberty has also hit 41.4 percent (109-of-263) of its attempts from behind
the three-point arc during the same span. The Niagara game (Dec. 1) marked the only time this
season Liberty eclipsed the 60-percent shooting mark.
B.J. Jenkins Has Career Night Against UNC Asheville
B.J. Jenkins set career highs in rebounds (9), assists (8) and steals (5) in Liberty’s 83-54 victory
over UNC Asheville on Saturday.
Flames Played Seven Games in November
Liberty played seven games in the month of November. That figure is the most games the Flames
have played in November since the 1979-80 season. That year Liberty participated in eight contests in November on its way to a 28-11 record and the NCCAA National Championship.
Anthony Smith Sets Record
Anthony Smith set a Big South single-game record shooting 87.5 percent from three-point range
versus Longwood (7-of-8) on Nov. 27. The conference record is based on a minimum seven
three-point field goals made. The game serves as the sixth-best individual performance in the
nation this season.
Matching a Record
Anthony Smith tied a Vines Center record with his seven three-point field goals against
Longwood on Nov. 27. Smith matched former teammate Larry Blair, who set the mark when he
made seven treys against High Point on March 6, 2004.
Non-Conference Wins
Liberty entered Big South play with eight wins, the most since the 1999-2000 team collected 10
non-conference victories. Liberty entered Big South play with a winning record (8-7) for the first
time since the 2001 team took a 7-5 record into league play.
Jeremy Anderson Tabbed Big South Freshman of the Week
Liberty guard Jeremy Anderson was selected as the Big South Conference New Balance Men’s
Basketball Freshman of the Week, for games played from Jan. 28-Feb. 3, as announced by the
league office.
Anderson (Bowling Green, Ky.) averaged 17.0 points while shooting 57.9 percent (11-of-19) from
the floor and 52.9 percent (9-of-17) from three-point range last week. He tallied a career-high 20
points on 7-of-9 shooting, including 6-of-8 from behind the three-point arc, aiding the Flames to a
six-point win at VMI on Jan. 28, 87-81.
At Radford on Saturday, Anderson scored 14 points, all coming in the second half, to keep Liberty
within striking distance of the Highlanders before falling by one point, 89-88. Anderson also was 3of-3 from the line and grabbed two rebounds in 19 minutes off the bench against the Highlanders.
Anderson is the first Liberty freshman to earn Big South Freshman of the Week honors since B.J.
Jenkins earned the award on Dec. 4, 2006. Anderson also becomes the 13th different freshman
from Liberty to earn the honor since the Big South started the award during the 1991 season.
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.
Basketball Times Rates Liberty’s Recruiting Class as No. 48 in the Nation
Basketball Times, a publication covering collegiate basketball for over 25 years, ranked Liberty’s
2008 recruiting class at No. 48 in its most recent issue. Basketball Times ranked its Top 50, and
Liberty joined No. 26 Xavier, No. 31 Rhode Island, No. 36 Fresno State, No. 36 New Mexico, No.
36 St. Louis, No. 41 Dayton, No. 50 Hofstra and No. 50 Gonzaga as the only schools that are not
a part of a BCS conference.

Game 1
Fresno, Calif.
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.

Halftime: Liberty 34, Campbell 34; Technical Fouls: Liberty - Team Officials: Billy Dunlap (R), Don Hudson, Mark Ellard;
Attendance: 661.
Game 11
Blacksburg, Va.
The Virginia Tech Hokies trudged past the
Liberty Flames, 58-46, inside Cassell
Coliseum. The Flames jumped out quickly
to a 5-0 lead, courtesy of a Rell Porter
bucket and a Kyle Ohman three-point field
goal at 17:23. Liberty then stretched the
lead to four points, 7-3, when TeeJay
Bannister tallied two points in the lane at
the 15:20 mark. Virginia Tech took its first
lead of the contest, 8-7, when A.D. Vassallo
hit a three-point bucket from the wing at
12:36. The Flames regained the lead, 13-8,
courtesy of back-to-back three-point buckets by Anthony Smith and Ohman, with
Smith’s coming at 9:18. The Hokies tied the
game for the third time at 21 when Vassallo
was successful on both attempts from the
charity stripe with 56.4 seconds remaining
in the first stanza. Liberty took what would
be its final lead of the contest going into the
intermission when Ohman put back a
Jeremy Anderson missed jump with 2.8
seconds remaining, giving the Flames the
23-21 halftime advantage. The Hokies
sprinted out of the break to take a 29-23
lead, courtesy of an 8-0 run, which was
capped by six-straight points by Malcolm
Delaney. A three-point bucket at 16:21 finished the run prior to the second period’s
first media timeout. Virginia Tech extended
the lead to nine points, 34-25, after another three-point bucket by Delaney and a
Washington free throw at 13:58. And that
would be as close as Liberty would get, as
the Hokies managed to push the lead back
to double digits by the game’s close.
McLean led the way for the Flames with 14
points and five rebounds.
Game 12
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty held on in the end to defeat the
Campbell Fighting Camels, 68-61, inside
the Vines Center. Both squads were playing their first contest in over a week due to
the Christmas holiday, and started a little
slowly at the offensive end. The score was
knotted at 4-4, three minutes into the
game. The Flames then sprinted on an 110 run, courtesy of three-point baskets by
TeeJay Bannister, B.J. Jenkins and Kyle
Ohman. The bucket by Ohman at 13:18
gave the Flames a 15-4 advantage.
Campbell charged with a 6-0 run, finished
by a pair of free throws by Reggie Bishop,
cutting the lead to 31-26, with 1:07 left in
the first stanza. The Flames wasted no
time answering the surge, as Ohman tallied
the six points back when he hit two-straight
three-point buckets. The last connection
came with three seconds left in the opening
period, sending Liberty into the intermission with a 37-26 lead. Campbell scored
the first points of the second half via two
Rodriguez free throws, cutting the Liberty
lead to 37-29 at 19:00. The Flames then
extended the lead to 15 points, 44-29,
courtesy of a 7-0 run, capped by a
Bannister layup at the 17:39 mark. The
Camels started to mount a comeback with
eight-consecutive markers, cutting the
Liberty advantage to 52-45, via a jumper by
Oladapo Fagbenle in the lane at 7:00.
Campbell then cut the lead to two points,
61-59, via a 14-9 surge, capped by a Jake
Wohlfeil three-point bucket at 3:25. Ohman
pushed the Flames’ lead back to five, 6459, with a three-point bucket of his own at
2:18. Bishop hit a layup in the lane at the
1:50 mark, cutting the deficit to three
points, 64-61, but that was as close as the
Camels would get. McLean led Liberty with
22 points on 9-of-13 shooting.

Anthony Smith scored a career-high 24

Mason Patriots hold on to win a physical
battle, 72-64, inside the Patriot Center.
George Mason streaked to a quick 9-0
lead, courtesy of three-straight three-point
buckets, capped by Dre Smith’s second of
the contest at 16:23. Anthony Smith
stopped the surge at 16:15 with a threepoint bucket of his own, cutting the Mason
lead to six points, 9-3. The Patriots extended the lead to 10, 13-3, via a Louis
Birdsong lay-up at 14:45. The Flames
slashed the lead to four, 13-9, after scoring
six-straight points. During the scoring
burst, Smith connected on an alley-opp
dunk from TeeJay Bannister and tallied
another bucket from Bannister assist. Alex
McLean ended the run with a bucket off
another Bannister dime at 12:34.Liberty
reduced the lead to two points, via a
McLean bucket and another Smith threepoint field goal at 8:02, cutting the score to
18-16. The Flames then tied the game for
the first time since the opening tip when
B.J. Jenkins went coast-to-coast, laying in
a bucket and knotting the game at 20, with
5:17 left to play in the opening stanza.
Liberty took its first lead of the game when
Smith hit a three-point bucket coming out of
the intermission, taking the 30-28 advantage at the 19:12 mark. The Patriots then
went on an 18-2 run, regaining the lead,
46-32, capped by an old fashioned threepoint play by John Vaughn with 11:43 left to
play. Liberty was able to cut the game back
to six, 70-64, after Jenkins hit a three-point
bucket with 17 seconds left. But that would
be as close as the Flames would get as
Mason held on to the eight-point victory,
72-64. Liberty’s Smith led the Flames with
a career-high 24 points on 9-of-13 shooting. Smith also pulled down six rebounds.
Jenkins scored 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting, while McLean chipped in 16 points.

on Liberty’s first seven field goals, as the
Flames won their sixth-straight home
game, defeating the Nyack Warriors, 7457, inside the Vines Center.The Warriors
quickly jumped out to a 5-2 lead after Brian
Roberts opened up the game with a threepoint bucket and a transition dunk, giving
the Warriors the early advantage at
16:50.Liberty answered back, staking itself
to a 13-5 lead, courtesy of an 11-0 run,
capped by an Alex McLean bucket at
14:22. The Flames pushed the lead to 188, after another McLean bucket via a
Bannister assist at the 12:03 mark. A
Tracey Quarles bucket and two McLean
makes from the charity stripe closed out
the half, sending Liberty into the intermission with a 40-32 advantage. The Flames
came out of the intermission holding a 157 advantage, entering the second media
timeout, extending its lead to 55-39.
Russell Monroe hit a 15-footer from the
corner off a Kyle Ohman pass at 11:22,
capping the spurt. Liberty then extended its
lead past 20 for the first time in the game
when McLean took a B.J. Jenkins pass and
laid it in with 8:33 remaining in the contest.
The field goal gave the Flames a 62-42
advantage. Head coach Ritchie McKay
then emptied his bench, as 14 Liberty players made an appearance in the contest,
helping the Flames cruise to an easy victory. Smith tallied 21 points on 7-of-11 shooting, marking the first time in the junior’s
career he has scored 20 points in back-toback games.

Four Vines Center records were matched
or broken as the Liberty Flames gallivanted
to an 84-45 victory over the Kentucky
Christian Knights, in its final non-conference tune-up, inside the Vines Center.
Kentucky Christian started the game perfect, hitting its first three shots, including
back-to-back three-point buckets by Eric
McKee, staking the Knights to an 8-5 lead
at 17:29. The Flames then rattled off a 162 run to take at 21-10 lead at 13:23. B.J.
Jenkins ended the surge with a lay-up. The
run also included two three-point baskets
by Kyle Ohman and another trey by
Anthony Smith, his second up to that point
in the game. Liberty then went on another
run to take a 38-19 lead. The 17-9 jaunt
was capped by Ohman’s third trey of the
first stanza at 5:25. The Knights hit two
three-point buckets by Kalen Jones down
the stretch to enter the intermission trailing
the Flames by 15 points, 45-30. The second half was all Liberty as the Flames went
into the eight-minute media timeout yielding only seven second half points to take a
71-37 advantage. From there Liberty emptied the bench and cruised to the easy 8445 victory. Smith led all scorers with 20
points on 8-of-12 shooting.
Game 16
Asheville, N.C.
The UNC Asheville Bulldogs had a hot
hand from the floor, inside the Justice
Center, sending Liberty home with a nailbiting 74-70 setback. The game started out
at a slow offensive pace, with the score
knotted at six apiece after K.J. Garland hit
a jumper in the lane at 15:32. The Bulldogs
then scored seven-straight points to take a
13-6 lead. The spurt was finished off by a
Bryan Smithson bucket at 12:20. UNC
Asheville extended the lead to 23-8, courtesy of a 10-2 run, capped by a Kenny
George dunk at 10:13. Liberty then found
its outside shooting touch, finishing the half
on a 23-11 run, trailing by three, 34-31,
going into the intermission. The spurt
included three-point buckets by Rell Porter,
B.J. Jenkins and two by Jeremy Anderson,
his second dropping through the cylinder
with two-tenths of a second remaining in
the first stanza. The Bulldogs came out of
the break holding a slight 15-10 advantage
over the first five-and-a-half minutes,
extending the lead to 49-41. The surge
was capped by a three-point bucket by
Smithson at 14:32. The Flames took their
first lead since 16:09 in the first half when
Kyle Ohman’s connected on a three-point
bucket from the wing at 3:34, finishing off a
14-5 run, giving Liberty a 68-67 advantage.
After Ohman’s bucket, Alex McLean
dumped in two points off his own offensive
rebound to extend the lead to three points,
70-67, with 2:11 left in the contest. Those
would be the last points Liberty would
score. On UNC Asheville’s next trip down
the floor, Smithson stuck a three-point
bucket, his fourth of the game, tying the
contest at 70 apiece with 2:02 left to play. A
lose ball foul by Ohman with 55 seconds
left in the contest sent Reid Augst to the
line to shoot two foul shots. Augst hit the
front end of the two-shot foul, giving the
Bulldogs a 71-70 lead. A missed Ohman
three-point attempt with 18 seconds left
forced Liberty to foul. Anthony Smith fouled
Garland, who sank both attempts from the
foul line, increasing the Bulldog lead to 7370. Ohman missed once more from threepoint range with five seconds left. Rell
Porter fouled Garland on the rebound,
sending the senior to the line for two shots.
Garland made the second attempt with two
seconds on the clock, clinching the win for
UNC Asheville. Ohman led the way for
Liberty in the scoring column, with 14
points and four assists, while Bannister tallied 13 points and dished out a game-high
eight assists. McLean and Porter chipped
in 12 and 11 points, respectively, as four
Flames tallied double figures.

Game 17
Rock Hill, S.C.
Liberty fell on the short end of a physical
battle, inside the Winthrop Coliseum, as
the Winthrop Eagles topped the Flames,
55-48. With the loss, the Flames record
falls to 8-9 and 0-2 in Big South play.The
Flames took an early 7-2 advantage at
15:13, on the heels of back-to-back threepoint buckets by Rell Porter and Anthony
Smith. Then, the Eagles the reeled off
eight-straight points, taking a 10-7 lead.
Charles Corbin finished the surge with a
bucket in the paint at 10:30. Liberty
regained the lead, 13-10, after Jeremy
Anderson and pair of back-to-back threepoint buckets, his second coming at 8:52.
The Flames extended the lead to five, 1712, after Alex McLean made both his
attempts from the charity stripe at 6:40.
The Eagles then closed out the half on a
16-7 run, capped by a three-point bucket at
the buzzer by Michael Jenkins. During the
spurt, Winthrop received seven points from
Jenkins and a three-point play by Mantoris
Robinson. The Flames cut the Eagles’ lead
to one point, 31-30, after a Smith dunk in
transition at 16:18. Winthrop was able to
increase its lead to seven, 40-33, when
Robinson tallied a bucket at 11:45. Liberty
then cut the lead back down to three, 4037, on a McLean dunk with 9:54 left in the
game. The Flames managed to trim the
lead to two, 42-40, when Smith connected
on a three-point basket from the wing at
8:43. But that would be as close as Liberty
would get, as Winthrop extended the lead

Halftime: Liberty 34, Charleston Southern 63; Technical Fouls: Charleston Southern - Goods, Liberty - Bannister; Officials:
Scott Smith (R), Damon Williams, Bobby Walker, Sr.; Attendance: 3,395.
Game 19
Lynchburg, Va.
TeeJay Bannister dished out 15 assists and
Alex McLean collected his seventh doubledouble, as the Liberty Flames cruised to a
78-59 victory, over the Coastal Carolina
Chanticleers, inside the Vines Center.
Liberty struck early when Anthony Smith
stuck a three-point bucket 13 seconds into
the game, staking the Flames to the early
3-0 lead. Coastal Carolina cut the Flames’
lead to one, 5-4, after a Phil Wallace bucket in the paint at 17:46. Liberty extended its
lead to 21-11, courtesy of a 16-7 spurt,
capped by a B.J. Jenkins bucket at 10:32.
A three-point bucket by Jeremy Anderson
at 8:02 and two free throws by Alex
McLean extended the Liberty lead to 15,
28-13, with 7:13 left in the first stanza. The
Chanticleers quickly bounced back, cutting
the Liberty lead to eight, 28-20, after an
old-fashioned three-point play by Phil
Wallace at 3:56. The Chanticleers trimmed
the Flames’ lead down to five at the break,
34-29, after six-straight points, which
included a Wallace bucket and two makes
from the charity stripe by Logan Johnson.
After Wallace scored on Coastal Carolina’s
first possession of the second stanza to cut
Liberty’s lead to three, 34-31, at the 19:36
mark, Liberty went on an 8-0 run. The
surge pushed the lead back up to 11 points,
42-31, courtesy of a McLean bucket at the
17:47 mark. During the remainder of the
contest, the score never got closer then 14
points, as Liberty cruised to the 19-point
victory, 78-59. McLean led the way with
game highs with 22 points and 12
rebounds, marking his seventh doubledouble of the season.
Game 20
Lynchburg, Va.
Alex McLean’s two free throws with 20.7
seconds left lifted the Liberty Flames over
the High Point Panthers, 55-51, inside the
Vines Center. The contest was close all
night, as the final minutes determined the
outcome. A B.J. Jenkins three-point basket
from the top of the key put Liberty up by
one point, 50-49, with 2:26 remaining in the
contest. After a Eugene Harris miss,
Arizona Reid fouled Alex McLean on
Liberty’s ensuing possession. Liberty was
in the bonus, sending McLean to the line to
shoot the one-and-one. McLean sank 1-of2, giving the Flames a narrow two-point
lead, 51-49, with 1:44 left. McLean then
returned the favor to Reid, fouling the
Preseason Big South Player of the Year,
sending him to the line to shoot a one-andone. Reid hit both free throw attempts,
tying the game at 51, with 45.8 seconds
remaining. On Liberty’s next trip down the
court, McLean was fouled while rebounding a Jenkins miss, sending the Liberty
senior to the line with 20.7 seconds left.
McLean sank both attempts from the charity stripe, giving the Flames the lead, 5351. High Point went down the court, looking
for Reid, who was heavily covered.
Jefferson dumped a pass to Cruz Daniels,
who lost the handle and dropped the ball
out of bounds, giving possession to Liberty
with four seconds left. After a High Point
timeout, TeeJay Bannister tossed a baseball pass to a streaking Jenkins who layed
it in, solidifying the Liberty victory, 55-51,
with 2.0 seconds remaining. McLean finished with a team-high 18 points and a
game-high 10 rebounds.

Anthony Smith scored 22 points and
Jeremy Anderson erupted for 20 points, as
Liberty recorded its fourth-straight win, 8781, with a victory over the VMI Keydets,
inside Cameron Hall. VMI raced out to a
quick nine point lead, 15-6, capped by a
Quinn Brownfield three-point bucket at
14:47. The Flames quickly settled in after
that bucket, taking a 20-17 lead, courtesy
of a 14-2 run. The run was capped by backto-back three-point buckets by Anderson,
the latter coming at 12:07. Liberty extended its lead, 32-26, with 7:41 left in the opening stanza, courtesy of five-straight points
by Smith. Anderson and Kyle Ohman took
over the next five minutes, pushing
Liberty’s lead to 46-37, as each guard
nailed two three-point buckets. Anderson’s
trey at 2:39 ended the Liberty run. The
Flames finished the half with a 7-2 advantage, entering the intermission with the 5339 lead. The Keydets came out of the
break and quickly cut Liberty’s 16-point
lead to seven points, 57-50, via an 11-4
run, capped by a Travis Holmes three-point
bucket at 16:10. Liberty then went up 12
points, 87-75, after TeeJay Bannister
knocked down 3-of-4 free throw attempts
with 58 seconds left. VMI was able to slice
the lead to six, but it wasn’t enough as the
Flames held onto the 87-81 triumph. Smith
led the Liberty charge with 22 points on 10of-16 shooting, as five Flames reached
double figures. Anderson tallied a careerhigh 20 points on 7-of-9 shooting, including
6-of-8 from three-point range.

VISITORS: Liberty 12-10, 4-3 BSC
The Liberty Flames tallied 62 second half
point, but it wasn’t enough as the Radford
Highlanders recorded an 89-88 homecoming victory, inside the Dedmon Center.
Liberty wasted no time getting started,
jumping out to an 8-2 lead, courtesy of B.J.
Jenkins layup at 17:55. Back-to-back
Anthony Smith buckets, his second coming
at 13:28, extended the Liberty lead to five
points, 12-7. Radford then went out on a 70 run, to take their first lead at 13-12.
McDuffy capped the run with his jumper at
13:08. The Highlanders held a 7-5 advantage over the final two minutes to enter the
intermission with a 32-26 lead. A 10-5 jaunt
pushed Radford’s lead to a game-high 14
points, 49-35, with 13:22 left in the contest.
Amir Johnson’s three-point bucket capped
the run. Liberty roared back on the heels of
a 15-2 run, cutting the Highlander lead to
one point, 51-50. Jeremy Anderson’s layup
in transition capped the run at 9:45. Within
90 seconds, the Radford lead was back to
eight points, 61-53, via a Kenny Thomas
three-point bucket that capped a 10-2 run
with 8:06 left in the second stanza.
However, the game was far from over, as
Ritchie McKay had his troops in quick foul
mode after Anderson hit his three-point
attempt with 42 seconds left. Anderson’s
bucket cut the Radford advantage to four
points, 81-77. Liberty scored 11 points over
the next 42 seconds but it wasn’t enough
as Radford held onto the 89-88 victory.
Five Flames reached double figures, led by
Jenkins’ 21 points on 8-of-10 shooting.

minutes of the second. High Point extended its lead during the exchange to 51-40.
Six three-point buckets were made, three

would get the rest of the way, as High Point
went on a 12-1 run for a 67-49 advantage
with 1:59 left. Russell Monroe scored in the
lane with 43 seconds left, Liberty’s first field

Halftime: Liberty 31, UNC Asheville 29; Technical Fouls: None; Officials: Tim Cromier (R), Robert Fessler, Tony Chiazza;
Attendance: 6,566.
Game 25
Lynchburg, Va.
Cold shooting and turnovers led to Liberty’s
59-50 setback to the Winthrop Eagles,
inside the Vines Center. Liberty was the
first on the board when TeeJay Bannister
found Alex McLean on the block for a basket at 19:41. Winthrop quickly matched the
Flames, as Michael Jenkins hit a jumper
from the right elbow on the Eagles next
possession at 19:22. Bannister then stole
an errant pass by Chris Gaynor and dished
out another assist on transition, this time to
a streaking Anthony Smith who dunked
home two points at 18:34, giving Liberty the
4-2 advantage. The Flames then stormed
to a seven-point lead, 15-7, due to an 11-2
run. A Kyle Ohman trey capped the surge
at 11:10. Liberty extended the margin to
nine points, 18-9, after Smith connected
from behind the arc with 10:18 left in the
opening stanza. Liberty managed just one
more field the remainder of the first period,
a B.J. Jenkins basket at 7:24, allowing
Winthrop to tie the game at 21 a piece
going into the intermission. Robinson
capped the 12- 3 run with a jumper at the
1:05 mark. Winthrop opened up the second
half on an 8-2 spurt, taking a six-point lead,
29-23, on a Charles Corbin bucket with
17:10 left to play. Liberty struck back quickly, tying the game at 29 with 15:55 left in
the contest, courtesy of treys by Ohman
and Jeremy Anderson. The Eagles’ Jenkins
connected for a three-pointer at 15:34,
allowing Winthrop to take a three point
lead, 32-29. However, Liberty rode a
Jenkins bucket and a McLean marker to
retake the lead, 33-32, with 12:41 remaining. That would be the last time Liberty
would hold the advantage. The Eagles took
the lead and extended it 12 points, outscoring the Flames 15-5. Byron Faison’s basket
at 2:26 capped the stretch. The Eagles
held their advantage over the final two-anda-half minutes, securing the nine-point victory, 59-50. The Flames were led by
McLean, who tallied his third-straight double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds.
McLean also collected his 500th career
rebound during the contest.
Game 25
Lynchburg, Va.
Anthony Smith scored his 1,000 career
point, as the Liberty Flames topped the
Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, 65-51,
inside Kimbel Arena. It took Liberty nearly
three minutes to score its first points of the
game. B.J. Jenkins’ trey hit the bottom of
the net at 17:12, to give the Flames an
early 3-2 lead in a half which started out as
a defensive struggle. The Flames didn’t
score another field goal in the following two
minutes, yet regained the lead, 6-4, when
Jenkins hit another three-point bucket at
15:15. Five-straight points by Logan
Johnson staked Coastal Carolina to its
largest lead of the first half at 9-6.
Johnson’s jumper from the right elbow
capped the run at 14:15. Liberty then held
the Chanticleers scoreless for the next
seven minutes. Using the solid defensive
effort, the Flames tallied nine unanswered
points to take a 15-9 advantage. TeeJay
Bannister finished the stretch with a jumper
in the lane with 12:55 remaining. Coastal
Carolina came back in the closing four minutes of the first stanza, going into the intermission on the heels of a 10-2 run. Jack
Leasure hit a three-point bucket with 2.5
seconds left before the break, slicing the
Liberty lead to 25-21at halftime. In the second half, Coastal Carolina tied the game at
32-32 with a basket in the paint by Anthony
Breeze at the 16:34 mark. The
Chanticleers then took its final lead of the
game, 37-36, courtesy of a 5-4 exchange,
capped by two free throws by Phil Wallace
at 13:55. Liberty followed by opening up
the game with an 18-5 run, retaking the
lead, 54-42. A Jenkins trey from the corner
at 7:55 completed the Flames’ burst, as
Liberty took control. Head coach Ritchie
McKay’s squad’s lead never dropped
below 12 points the rest of the way.
