A Pre-game Article from a 11/28/06 Miami Tropics Website

Victor Brown (16 points, 11 rebounds) has played one game and is their leading rebounder. He is a 6-8, 205-pounder from Delta State.

Antonio Lawrence, a 6-5 wing, is probably their top player and is averaging 15.5 points, and Larry Richardson, a 6-9, 225-pound post from Indiana University, is the fifth player in double figures (14.5).
