JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. — With the regular season less than
a month away, the Carson-Newman men’s basketball team has
been grinding through practice for a week in preparation for the
2009-10 campaign.
The Eagles return two starters from last year’s team that
led the SAC in scoring for a second-straight season with an average
of 87 points per game, including senior point guard Jordan Dixon
(Clinton, Tenn.).
Dixon started 25 games for C-N in 2008-09 and averaged 8.4 points
per game and was fourth in the SAC in assists as he dished out a
career-high 119 dimes.
C-N will travel to East Tennessee State on Nov. 9 for its only
exhibition of the preseason before opening regular season play on
the road at Alabama Huntsville on Nov. 16. Tipoff for both contests
is scheduled for 7 p.m.
