D.J. Covington had a career-high 26 points and added 10 boards for his third double-double of the season, while Stan Okoye added 17 and had nine rebounds. Dorian Albritton (10), Phillip Anglade (9) and Christian Burton (6) all had career-high scoring efforts, as VMI used a 21-2 run just after the first media timeout to seize control of the game for good. 12 of the 13 players on VMI s active roster scored at least 1 point in the win. This is VMI s first game against one of the nine teams currently in the Horizon League since Jan. 5, 1980, when the Keydets fell at Cleveland State 102-82 after besting the Vikings each of the previous two seasons. VMI has only one of the other Horizon League foes in its history, having lost to Wisc.-Green Bay in 1975-76. Last Meeting with Wright State: VMI has never faced the Wright State Raiders.

There s a First Time for Everything: VMI has just two first-time opponents on its schedule this season, and, in a strange bit of coincidence, is playing them back to back. The Keydets defeated the Virginia University of Lynchburg Dragons on Dec. 3, and face Wright State on Dec. 8. Okoye s Chart-Climbing Update: Over the past several games, Stan Okoye has passed several notable names on the Keydet career charts. His latest victims were Ramon and Damon Williams 90, whom he passed in the Dec. 1 loss to Morgan State to move into eighth on the all-time Keydet scoring list. While he is 67 points behind Travis Holmes 09 for seventh on that listing, he could surpass Karl Klinar 54 on the rebounding chart against Wright State. Okoye is eighth on that listing, just eight rebounds away from passing Klinar (see page five). The senior is one of only three Keydets to rank in the top 10 of both categories, joining Reggie Williams 08 and Ron Carter 78. Baucom Eight Wins Away: Last season, VMI head coach Duggar Baucom became just the second coach in Keydet history to surpass the 100-win plateau, as he hit triple digits with the Feb. 18 win over William & Mary. With just eight more victories, Baucom will tie Bart Bellairs for the most wins ever at VMI with 116. Baucom Moving Up: VMI head coach Duggar Baucom not only won his 100th game at the Institute last season and closed on former coach Bart Bellairs for the school record (116), but he moved up the Big South charts as well. Baucom has logged 108 wins as a part of the Big South, tied for the seventh-most all-time. He is just seven behind Gary Edwards, former Charleston Southern head man, for sixth. VMI Racking Up Assists: After dishing out 18 assists in Dec. 3 s win over the Virginia University of Lynchburg, the Keydets have posted at least 14 dimes in ever game this season. The team leads the Big South in APG (17.6) with point guard Rodney Glasgow ranking second individually with 5.0 APG. VMI s season high in helpers came Nov. 13, when the team had 28 on 45 field goals against Central Penn College. Keydet Thefts Versus VUL Push VMI to Top of Big South: A season-high 20 steals against the Virginia University of Lynchburg (Dec. 3) was good enough to push VMI back to the top of the Big South in steals per game (10.6). Both Nick Gore and Stan Okoye rank in the league s top 15 in SPG, as Gore has tied his career high with four steals in back to back games (Dec. 1 and
3). Freshman Gavin Stephenson has also played a role, notching seven steals against Central Penn and four against VUL. Keydets Rewrite Season Highs in Win: As seen on page 14, the Keydets rewrote their seasonal high efforts in the Dec. 3 win over Virginia University of Lynchburg. Keydet players set or tied 18 different individual seasonal high marks in the 102-61 win, led by D.J. Covington s 26 points. As mentioned in the previous note, the Keydets also had a season-high 20 steals, the team s most since Dec. 8 of 2011 (21 vs. Central Penn). Balanced Scoring Leads Keydets in Rout of VUL: 12 different Keydets found the scoreboard, led by D.J. Covington's career night, to lead VMI to a 102-61 rout of the Virginia University of Lynchburg Dragons Dec. 3 at Cameron Hall in Lexington, Va. Covington notched a careerhigh 26 points and shot a strong 10 of 11 from the floor. That accounted for a 90.9 field goal percentage, the third-best single-game effort in VMI (4-5) history, among players with at least 10 attempts. The other story of the night was the Keydet defense, which had a season-high 20 steals, led by four each from Gavin Stephenson and Nick Gore, and also forced a season-best 31 turnovers in the victory. Non-Conference Home Winning Streak Ended by Morgan State: Going into the December 1 Morgan State game, VMI had won 27 straight non-conference home games and 30 of their last 31. That streak ended with the buzzer-beater 81-80 loss to MSU. VMI had not lost a non-conference home game since facing Army on Dec. 1, 2007. Overtime Buzzer-Beater Sinks Keydets Against Morgan State: A full court pass with two seconds remaining in overtime led to an Ian Chiles game-winning layup, giving the Morgan State Bears an 81-80 win over the VMI Keydets in nonconference basketball action Dec. 1 at Cameron Hall. After the Keydets (3-5) had scored the final five points of regulation to tie the game, VMI pulled ahead by as many as four in overtime, going up 79-75 with three minutes remaining. Morgan State (3-3) went 4 of 6 at the foul line over the next 2:22, however, and that made it an 80-79 contest with just 38 seconds on the clock. Rodney Glasgow missed a 10-foot leaner late in the shot clock, and after a timeout, Thair Heath found Chiles with the full court pass and the 7'2" center converted a left-handed lay-in over two Keydets as the clock ran out, giving the visitors the dramatic victory. The Keydets were led by Stan Okoye, who had 29 points and 11 rebounds, while Brian Brown added 17 points of his own. Keydets to be Broadcast Seven Times on TV: VMI basketball can be seen on various networks seven times this season, with the next scheduled game being set for Jan. 9, when the Liberty Flames come to Cameron Hall. That game can be seen on both the Flames Sports Network and ESPN3. The schedule then resumes with Jan. 19 s game at Coastal Carolina being on ESPNU, while that network also shows VMI/UNC Asheville from Lexington on Feb. 8. MASN broadcasts VMI at Campbell on Feb. 16, with VMI at Liberty (Flames Sports Network/MASN) on Feb. 26 wrapping up the broadcast schedule. Earlier games shown included Virginia Tech (ESPN3) and West Virginia (Root Sports - Pittsburgh/ESPN3).

VMI Falls to WVU, 94-69: D.J. Covington had 12 points, seven rebounds and three blocks for the VMI Keydets, but the West Virginia Mountaineers put seven players in double figures and had 60 points in the paint, leading to a 94-69 WVU win Nov. 28.

Okoye averaged 26.0 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.5 steals, 3.5 assists and 2.0 blocks in leading the Keydets to two wins during the week. He opened his week with 22 points, seven rebounds, four steals and three assists in VMI s 76-71 road win at Old Dominion. Against Elon on Saturday, he tallied 30 points and 16 rebounds in leading VMI to the nine-point victory. Keydets Down Elon: Stan Okoye notched 30 points and 16 rebounds, propelling the Keydets to a 90-81 win over the Elon Phoenix in non-conference basketball action Saturday, Nov. 24 at Cameron Hall in Lexington. After a first half that saw the two teams notch 11 lead changes and four ties, the teams continued to go back and forth early in the second half. There were three ties and one lead change in the first 4:34 of the half, with the final tie being on a Lucas Troutman jumper for Elon at the 15:26 mark that tied the game at 54. Brian Brown scored the next time down the floor to start a 6-0 run that put VMI ahead for good. Notable Facts from Stan Okoye vs. Elon: Stan Okoye had one of the best games of his collegiate career on Nov. 24 against Elon, propelling VMI to victory with 30 points, 16 rebounds, four assists, three steals and a pair of blocks. Here are notable facts about Okoye s performance in that game: It was his second 30-plus point game this season (Army), doubling the number of games with at least 30 points he had entering the season (Okoye scored 30 points against Presbyterian his sophomore season). It was the second-most rebounds of his career, trailing only his career-high against Campbell last year. Okoye passed Radee Skipworth and tied Will Bynum on the career scoring list, while also moving into seventh on the all-time Institute rebounding chart, passing Charlie Schmaus. Keydets Down ODU, 76-71, Beat Monarchs For First Time Since 78: Stan Okoye had a game-high 22 points, D.J. Covington had a double-double to go along with his seven blocks and the VMI defense forced several key turnovers in the final three minutes as the Keydets defeated the Old Dominion Monarchs, 76-71, in basketball action Nov. 21 at the Constant Center in Norfolk, Va. The victory is VMI's first win over Old Dominion since Jan. 25, 1978. The seven blocks for Covington, two of which came after Glasgow's three-point play on ODU's final possession of the game, tied for the second-most in a game in VMI history. Lewis Preston had seven blocks against Marshall on Jan. 18, 1992, while Covington and Eric Mann are in the record books having each posted nine blocks in a VMI game.

WSU is VMI s second, and final, first-time opponent this season after the Keydets faced the Virginia University of Lynchburg on Dec. 3. The Keydets last played in Ohio on Nov. 23, 2011, losing 107-74 to Ohio State. This is not VMI s first game in Dayton, however, as the Keydets have faced the Dayton Flyers three times in the past. The last of those meetings was Dec. 22, 1993, a 85-73 loss.
at Cameron Hall, with the last setback in that streak being on Dec. 1, 2007, a 71-69 loss to Army. Finally, freshman Gavin Stephenson finished with seven steals, the most by a Keydet since Ron Burks also had seven on Nov. 30, 2009. VMI Falls to Army, 80-74: The VMI Keydets had cut a double-digit deficit down to just one with under five minutes to go, thanks to five straight points by Stan Okoye, but the Army Black Knights answered with a 6-0 run and went on to defeat the Keydets, 80-74, in the third-place game of the All-Military Classic, contested Nov. 11 in Charleston, S.C. The Black Knights controlled most of the second half, stretching their lead to double figures on several occasions until a hard Army foul on Keydet (0-2) guard Joe Carr, which came with just under six minutes to go, seemed to fire up VMI. Okoye hit a three on VMI's next possession, reducing the lead to three, and then scored again on the ensuing try to make it a 69-68 game. Army responded with a three-pointer by Josh Herbeck, and on VMI s next trip, the Keydets misfired on multiple shot attempts, and when Army was finally able to snare a loose ball, Mo Williams converted a three-point play off a breakaway layup, pushing the margin to 75-68 and the Keydets could get no closer than five the rest of the way. Keydets Drop Season Opener to The Citadel, 84-76: Mike Groselle had 21 points and 15 rebounds and The Citadel Bulldogs shot 50 percent from the floor, helping them defeat the VMI Keydets, 84-76, in game two of the All-Military Classic tournament Saturday, Nov. 10 at McAlister Field House in Charleston, S.C. Brian Brown led all scorers with a careerhigh 22 points, while D.J. Covington added 15 points and nine rebounds. Okoye Preseason Player of the Year: Senior Stan Okoye was voted Big South Preseason Player of the Year prior to the start of this season. He is, in fact, the first Keydet to be named the conference preseason POTY since VMI joined the conference for the 2003-04 season, and is the first VMI hoops standout to earn any Preseason Player of the Year honor from a conference since 2002-03, when Jason Conley was tabbed with that honor by the Southern Conference. Coaching Staff Changes: This summer, VMI made a pair of coaching staff changes, adding one coach and promoting another. Longtime VMI assistant Jason Allison was promoted to Associate Coach - Recruiting Coordinator, and Ryan Mattocks was hired as the team s newest assistant. Mattocks' (Duke 11) primary duties include assisting the staff with practice and game preparation, scouting, recruiting, and player development. Mattocks also coordinates team travel and oversees study hall during the academic year. Allison begins his eighth season on Baucom's VMI staff and has spearheaded the Keydet basketball recruiting efforts over that time. 2012-13 Double-Doubles D.J.
