    The 2011-12 basketball season cant come soon enough for the UNC Asheville Bulldogs and their fans. There is much to be excited about. Asheville is coming off a Big South Conference cham-pionship and trip to the NCAA Tournament. The Bulldogs excited fans everywhere with a thrilling 81-77 overtime victory over Arkansas-Little Rock in the fi rst round of the NCAA Tournament last March. Asheville then battled top-seeded Pitt admirably for most of the game before having their season end, 74-51 in the second round of the tourna-ment. The Bulldogs bring four starters back from last years club (20-14), including Big South Tournament MVP Matt Dickey and fellow all-tournament selection J.P. Primm. Throw in two other starters in Chris Stephenson and Qui-nard Jackson plus a solid recruiting class, and Asheville is in position to have another outstanding season. And then theres where Asheville is going to play this season. The Bulldogs will be moving into the new state-of-the art-Kimmel Arena this year. The 3,200-seat facility is a big upgrade for the Asheville program. And the Bulldogs open that arena against probable top-ranked UNC Chapel Hill on Nov. 13. The ticket for that game is the hottest tick-et in town. The game with the Tar Heels will be televised nationally on ESPNU. Yes, theres plenty to be excited about with Bulldog basketball this year. Asheville is the preseason favorite to win the Big South Conference championship this season. Veteran coach Eddie Biedenbach is excited as well, but cau-tious. Ive been here for 15 years, and the build-up for this season is the most I have ever seen, stated Biedenbach, the Big Souths all-time winningest coach. With the return-ees we have back, the success we had last year and our new arena, there are plenty of reasons to be excited about the season. However, our guys know it took a tremendous amount of effort and sacrifi ce to accomplish what we did last season, he added. Were going to need that kind of effort and even more this year. UNC Asheville will have a target on its back from day one. But I believe our guys un-derstand that the target is on their back and welcome the opportunity to win another championship. Biedenbach has experienced a great deal in a basket-ball career that spans more than 40 years as a player and coach. He remembers last season fondly. We became a team in the last half of the year that trusted and depended on each other. Each player played to their near potential, Biedenbach explained. John Williams (senior forward), Matt and J.P. did a good job leading us and getting everyone on the same page. We also changed our style a little bit by going with three guards, added Biedenbach. And I really have to give our assistant coaches credit because they put an emphasis

    Matt Dickey

    on making our defense better, and our defense got a lot better down the stretch. Our seven-game winning streak at the end of the season was as memorable as anything Ive ever experienced in basketball, he said. Im looking forward to trying to do it again this season.

    GUARDS

    The Bulldogs may have the best backcourt in the Big South Conference in seniors Matt Dickey and J.P. Primm. The duo has been playing together since their fi rst colle-giate game as freshmen against Belmont Abbey. They really enjoyed great junior seasons and helped lead the Bulldogs to the Big South Conference championship and a second-round trip to the NCAA Tournament. Dickey and Primm both became 1,000-point career scorers last year, and if they both stay healthy should be high up on the Bulldog career charts in scoring, assists, steals and three-pointers made. Dickey enters the season as the 2011-12 Big South Conference Preseason Player of the Year, while Primm joins Dickey on the preseason All-Conference team. From their freshman year, Matt and J.P. have worked hard and gotten better and better with each season, com-mented Biedenbach. They play so well together and are leaders for us both on and off the court. We believe we have one of the premier guard combinations in the Big South. Weve had some great guard combinations in the

    2011 ASHEVILLE BASKETBALL:

    J.P. Primm

    past at UNC Asheville, but I wouldnt trade these two for any of them. Dickey enjoyed a breakout season last year. He led Asheville in scoring (15.7 ppg) and three-pointers made (65) and was second in assists (111) and steals (64). The senior guard earned fi rst-team All-Conference honors and was named Big South Tournament MVP. He captivated the country with his clutch plays and shots. Dickey had a steal and a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Bull-dogs a win at Coastal Carolina late in the season, 61-58. He knocked down a clutch three-pointer late in the champi-onship game victory over the Chanticleers, and his three-pointer with 10 seconds left against Arkansas-Little Rock in the fi rst round of the NCAA Tournament tied the game and allowed the Bulldogs to win the game in overtime, 81-77. Former NBA star and now TV analyst Charles Barkley commented, How did a great player like Matt Dickey get out of the state of Alabama and end up in Asheville? That boy can play. Matt has a great work ethic and a tremendous de-sire to get better and thats what drives great players, ad-mitted Biedenbach. Hes quicker and more athletic than you realize. Matt just has a knack for scoring and can do it a variety of ways. Primm also enjoyed a tremendous season as a junior. He led Asheville in assists (154) and set a single-season re-cord for steals in a season with 71. Primm was second in scoring (14.6) and three-pointers made (55). He earned

    second-team All-Conference honors and made the All-Tournament team. Primm was outstanding in Ashevilles two NCAA Tournament games as he scored 22 points against UALR and 14 vs. Pitt in the second round. J.P. is a strong, tough player who has worked hard on getting stronger and quicker. He plays hard both offensively and defensively, stated Biedenbach. J.P. is always striving to get better and weve seen that every year with him. Whats great about Matt and J.P. is they rise to the occasion, added Biedenbach. They both want the ball in key situations and know how to execute when the game is on the line. They also helped their teammates get better during games, practices and the off-season, Biedenbach said. Sophomore Trent Meyer earned some playing time last sea-son and his role could expand this year. He averaged 2.1 points per game but played in 31 games. Trent was a real asset to our team last year as he gave us some valuable minutes, commented Biedenbach. Hes an excellent shooter who has good range as a three-point shooter. He rebounds well and just has an excellent understanding of the game. The Bulldogs have some freshman depth in the back-court. Start with 6-2 guard Corey Littlejohn from Colum-bia, S.C. He had a sensational prep career at Heathwood Hall School where he led his school to the state champion-ship last season. Corey is a leader and a winner, explained Bieden-bach. He has a lot of ability and will be like Trent Meyer last year; we know that we will be able to count on him in tough-game situations. 6-4 guard Keith Hornsby joins the Asheville program after a standout career at prep power Oak Hill Academy (Va.). Hornsby started for the Warriors last season and helped the perennial national power achieve a No. 4 rank-ing in the nation. Keith is not your typical freshman, declared Bie-denbach. Hes a little ahead of his time due to his back-ground at Oak Hill. Keith has already played against some of the top players in the country in tough situations. We believe he gives us some size at the wing posi-tion as he can play three different positions, added Bie-denbach. Keith is an excellent shooter and a very good defensive player. Madison Davis and Josh Seligson return this season. The walk-on guards are key players for the Bulldogs in their roles, and Biedenbach is glad to have them back this year. Madison has done as much for us in practice and off the court as anybody on our team, said Biedenbach. He has a great attitude and makes everyone better. Josh Seligson worked extremely hard and really im-proved his game, Biedenbach said. Like Madison, his hard work in practice makes everyone better.

    BULLDOGS LOOK TO REPEAT

  • 66

    FORWARDS The Bulldogs return some experience and talent in the front court. Junior Jaron Lane was a key player for Asheville in the second half of the season. He averaged 8.7 points and 3.1 rebounds per game. Lane was the sixth man for the Bull-dogs a year ago, but he should be in the starting lineup this season. Jaron really emerged as one of our most talented players in the second half of the season, declared Bieden-bach. Hes a versatile player who can score inside or out-side. We need him to do even more this season. Jaron is capable of being an All-Conference player. Senior forward Chris Stephenson is another player who can play inside and outside for the Bulldogs. He was an unsung hero for Asheville in the Big South Tournament, scoring 12 points against Charleston Southern in the quar-terfi nals and then a team-high 14 points with eight re-bounds in the championship game at Coastal Carolina. Chris Stephenson is such a valuable player for us, declared Biedenbach. We are never at a weakness at ei-ther forward spot with Chris because he is able to play inside or outside without missing a beat. Chris is a player that helps you win big games with big plays. I expect him to have a big senior year this season. Quinard Jackson, a 6-5 senior forward, moved into the starting lineup inside for the Bulldogs last year and nev-er came out. He became a starter due to injuries but stayed there due to his toughness and rebounding ability. Jackson averaged 5.1 points and 3.6 rebounds per game. Quinard constantly made plays for us, some that dont show up on the box score, that help you win cham-pionships, commented Biedenbach. He has a knack for making the right play at the right time. Quinard plays hard all the time and gives us a lot of toughness inside. Junior forward Jon Nwannunu (pronounced Wah-new-new) was a pleasant surprise for the Bulldogs in the fi rst part of the season. He was giving Asheville some solid play off the bench with 4.5 scoring and 3.5 rebounding av-erages. However, he injured his knee at Ohio State in late December and missed the rest of the season. We really were pleased with the way Jonathan was playing in the fi rst part of the year, explained Biedenbach. When he was injured at Ohio State and missed the rest of the season, that really hurt our inside game for the rest of the year. We really could have used him last year. We need Jon healthy this season. Junior college transfer Jeremy Atkinson played at Louisburg College and helped lead the school to the re-gional championship and a trip to the national champion-ship tournament. Jeremy is a player weve known about since he played in high school, said Biedenbach. He has really improved

    Chris Stephenson

    his game and we believe we have a diamond in the rough with Jeremy. Hes a versatile player who can play inside or outside. Junior Jeremy Harn is a two-sport athlete for the Bull-dogs. Hes a 6-8 walk-on who also performs on Ashevilles track and fi eld squad. We like having Jeremy on our team because hes such a hard worker who makes everyone better, com-mented Biedenbach. He has improved his physical abilities and range.

    CENTERS

    The big news in the pivot is who isnt playing this season for Asheville. 6-10 junior D.J. Cunningham enjoyed a solid season last year despite some nagging injuries. He was ready to take the next step this year but an off-season knee injury will force Cunningham to miss the season. The Ohio native averaged 8.6 points and a team-leading 7.2 rebounds per game last season. Losing D.J. for the season is a tremendous blow for our program, stated Biedenbach. He was turning into one of the best big men in the Big South Conference. However, we will just need someone else to step up and play big for us this year. Asheville does have some options and could play with a small lineup at times during the year. The Bulldogs won the semifi nals and championship game of the Big South

  • 77

    Quinard Jackson

    Tournament last season without Cunningham. An intriguing option is 6-10 red-shirt sophomore Chudier Pal (Chew-de-ah Paul). Pal grew up in Kenya before moving to Australia and playing basketball there. Former Bulldog Joey Harrell saw Pal play in high school while he was playing pro basketball in Australia and recom-mended him to the Bulldog coaching staff. Chudier came to Asheville last year but could not practice until midway through the season due to paper work issues from Kenya. Chudier has really improved a great deal from last year to now, said Biedenbach. Its been a long journey for him to go from Kenya to Australia to Asheville. Hes made great strides. Chudier is strong and powerful and could contribute this season. Hes still learning but hes learning rapidly. 7-0 freshman center Jaleel Roberts comes to the Bulldogs from Greensboro Day. Jaleel is an excellent big-man prospect, declared Biedenbach. He runs the fl oor extremely well and can block shots. On defense, Jaleel is ready to play college bas-ketball. He needs work on his offense, but defensively hes ready to go.

    BIG SOUTH

    For the fi rst time in nine years, UNC Asheville is the preseason pick to win the Big South Conference champi-onship. The Bulldogs captured their third title last season

    but fi nished in third place in the league during the regular season. Its nice to be picked to win the league in the pre-season as it gets everyone a little bit more excited about the upcoming season, commented Biedenbach. However, we have a lot of work to do before we can think about fi nishing in fi rst place in the conference. I think a lot of people who voted didnt realize that D.J. Cunningham was going to miss the year, added Bie-denbach. We have a good team coming back, but there is a tremendous amount of balance in the league. Coastal Carolina has an outstanding team coming back and has some newcomers who are going to be ready to make an impact right away, he said. VMI was playing some really good basketball at the end of last season, and I expect them to pick up where they left off. Winthrop always plays great defense and will be heard from this season. You never want to count them out. High Point has a great recruit-ing class along with some talented players back, Biedenbach said. I was really impressed with the job Gardner-Webb did a year ago. Charleston Southern is going to be tough with its team back. We barely got by them in the quarterfi nals of the tourna-ment. Presbyterian College has good players return-ing and will make some noise this season. We welcome Campbell back to the Big South. Weve played Campbell the past few years and didnt have much luck against them. Theyll be a force to be reckoned with this year. Rad-ford has a new coach in Mike Jones and will be better. Our guys know every game in the Big South Conference will be a war, admitted Biedenbach. Well need to stay healthy and fi nd ways to win close games to make a run at another championship.
