ULM Quick Notes- Senior Tylor Ongwae was named to the Preseason All-Conference Second-Team and College Sports Madness All-SBC Second Team. Ongwae ranked fourth in the league in scoring last year and earned recognition on the NABC All-District Second-Team, All-Louisiana Third-Team and College Sports Madness SBC Fourth-Team

- The Warhawks were tabbed for sixth in the Sun Belt Conference Preseason Poll. They return three starters and six players overall on a team that more-than doubled both its overall and conference win totals

- ULM brings back point guard Nick Coppola who started all 27 games last year as a true freshman and played 40 minutes nine times. He shot .407 from three-point range in conference games and also ranked top-10 in the league in assists

- The Warhawks return starting center Marvin Williams who ranked top-10 in the SBC in blocks last year. He tallied nine double-figure scoring games. Williams notched a 19-point performance against No. 5 Kansas and outscored both Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embiid, the first and third picks of the NBA draft

- ULM is looking for its first victory on opening night since Nov. 14, 2008 when it defeated Morehead State, 56-54. ULM seeks its first opening day road victory since Nov. 23, 1999 when it won at Samford, 67-60

- The Warhawks enter the 2014-15 without any APR penalties for the first time in five years. ULM head coach Keith Richard has turned the program around academically since inheriting APR sanctions when he took over at the helm, and the Warhawks have won back-to-back Sun Belt Conference academic awards

UAB returns one starter and four letterwinners from last year’s squad that finished 18-13 overall and 7-9 in Conference USA. C.J. Washington, a 6-8 se-nior forward, returns as the team’s leading scorer and averaged 13.0 points and 6.9 rebounds a game last year. Washington was one of 10 players that earned Preseason All-Conference recognition from C-USA.

The Blazers finished last season ranked fourth in the nation in rebounding margin with a +8.5 rpg advantage.

Denzel Collins is the only other senior on a youthful team loaded with six freshmen and four sophomores. Collins joined the squad after spending the last two seasons at USC Salkehatchie where he averaged 15.1 points per game and was named a NJCAA Honorable Mention All-American Selection.

The lone junior on the team, Robert Brown, is expected to start. He played two seasons at Virginia Tech before sitting out last year due to NCAA transfer rules. Brown started 25 games as a sophomore guard with Virginia Tech.

Head coach Jerod Haase enters his third season at the helm. Before coming to UAB, Haase played for Roy Williams at Kansas and then spent 13 years on Williams’ staff with the Jayhawks and Tar Heels. Ironically, Haase’s biggest win at UAB came last year when the Blazers defeated No. 16 UNC, 63-59 on Dec. 1, 2013. Haase has experience reaching the Final Four (2002) and national championship game (2003) with the Jayhawks.

It will mark the third-ever meeting between the two programs and the first since Dec. 20, 2012 when the Blazers took a 76-69 decision at Bartow Arena. The first meeting came on a neutral court on Nov. 27, 1994 with UAB coming out on top, 85-67.
