THE GOOD NEWS
Vermont shot 45.9 percent from the field, best in the conference. Of course, many of those shots were dunks by Marqus Blakely.

THE BAD NEWS
The Catamounts need to find a consistent 3-point threat. They connected on only 5.7 treys a game this season, which ranks near the bottom of the conference.

KEY RETURNEES
Junior guard Mike Trimboli and sophomore forward Marqus Blakely will be back to lead the Catamounts. The dynamic duo averaged 19.4 and 17.9 points respectively.

ROSTER REPORT

--Sophomore forward Marqus Blakely is a legitimate NBA prospect. At 6-5, 210 pounds, he's got great athleticism and is extremely good at finding ways to get to the free-throw line.

--Junior guard Mike Trimboli scored in double figures in all but two games this year.
