Season: 2009-2010

The Barton College men's basketball team must replace the leadership, heart, scoring and rebounding of the most successful senior class in school history if it hopes to continue its run of outstanding seasons in 2009-10. The Bulldogs graduated 6-foot-6 center David King while guards Bobby Buffaloe and Errol Frails have used up their eligibility and are finishing up their degrees. That trio led Barton to a sensational 103-26 (.798) record, including three trips to the NCAA Tournament, three conference regular-season and tournament championships, East Region titles in 2006 and 2007, NCAA Tournament appearances in 2006, 2007 and 2009, Elite Eight appearances in 2006 and 2007 and the NCAA D-II National Championship in 2007. The Bulldogs return 15 players from last year's 25-7 squad that shared the Conference Carolinas regular season championship and won the tournament title. After winning an 80-78 thriller in the Southeast Regional quarterfinals, the Bulldogs lost in the regional semifinals to top-seeded Augusta State. Leading the Bulldogs this season will be 6-3 senior forward L.J. Dunn, a returning first-team All-Conference Carolinas choice. Dunn, an All-America candidate, averaged 14.6 points and 9.2 rebounds last season while shooting a sensational 61.4 percent from the floor. Junior guard Greg Mammel is the other returning starter. He averaged 7.3 points, three assists and 1.2 steals per game. Six talented newcomers should should help the Bulldogs maintain their winning ways this season as they continue to rely on pressure defense, rebounding, an up-tempo style and determination to remain one of the nation's top teams.
