BOWLING GREEN, Ohio - Bowling Green State University men's basketball fans can get their first look at the 2008-09 Falcons in action on Saturday evening (Oct. 25). The team will hold a Brown and Orange scrimmage at Anderson Arena, beginning at 7:00 p.m.
The event is open to the public and is free of charge.
Head coach Louis Orr and his staff -- assistant coaches LaMonta Stone, George Jackson and Louis Twigg and director of basketball operations Dave Clarke -- welcome back 11 letterwinners to the team. That list includes all 10 of last year's lettermen, headlined by seniors Darryl Clements, Nate Miller and Brian Moten.
Juniors Matt Karaffa, Marc Larson, Otis Polk and Ryan Sims also return to the team after lettering in 2007-08, as do redshirt sophomore Chris Knight and true sophomores Joe Jakubowski and Cameron Madlock.
Additionally, redshirt junior Erik Marschall returns to the Falcon fold. Marshall lettered in both 2005-06 and '06-07 before sitting out last season due to injury.
The Falcons will open the regular season on Nov. 14 at the NABC Classic in Minneapolis, Minn. The home opener is scheduled for Nov. 20 vs. Wayne State.
