2008 - 09 MEN’S BASKETBALL SEASON PREVIEW<br />
<strong>Kansas</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> and second year head coach Mike Davert look to build on last season’s 14-14 overall finish, which included a 12-6 record in KCAC<br />
play.<br />
The Coyotes have four players returning that started at one point or another last year, which accounted for almost two-thirds of KWU’s 64 points per<br />
game in 2007-08.<br />
Those four players include All-American selection Trey Sims (6-2, G, Sr., Tulsa, Okla., Sterling (Kan.)), Romero Hood (6-1, G/F, Jr., Phoenix, Ariz., Phoenix<br />
College (Ariz.)), Eric Hammond (6-0, G/F, Sr., Wichita, Kan., Cowley CC (Kan.)) and Willie McCarty (6-2, F, Jr., Omaha, Neb., Southeast CC (Neb.)).<br />
Davert also points out that other players that saw action last year will fit into the mix as well.<br />
“We have a lot of experience back for us this year,” Davert said. “We also have a lot of guys that may not have seen a lot of playing time last year that<br />
have come into preseason workouts that obviously worked hard over the summer to get better.”<br />
Those returning players include Clay DuBois (6-4, G, Jr., Idaho Springs, Colo., Clear Creek HS), who saw quality minutes last year, especially at the<br />
end of the season, and two players in Mike White (5-10, G, So., Salina, Kan., McPherson College (Kan.)) and Melvin Underwood (5-11, G, Jr., Monroe,<br />
La., Iowa Lakes CC) that missed all or part of the season last year due to injury. Another player that returns to the Coyotes after a year off is Cameron<br />
Simms (6-2, G, So., Lyons, Kan., Lyons HS) who has a chance to compete for some playing time.<br />
Davert also points out that having a full year to go out and recruit players to fit his system and to work with the returning players will show immediate<br />
benefits when the Coyotes open the season at the end of October.<br />
“Last year, we had to hit the ground running and didn’t get a chance to work in our system,” he said. “It took us a few games to get into the groove of<br />
things, and we improved as the season went along as well. This year, with a whole summer and fall to get ready for the upcoming season, it should<br />
pay immediate dividends for us.”<br />
Davert points to three transfers and four freshmen that have a chance to fit into the mix for the Coyotes this season.<br />
Matt Dickman (6-0, G, So., Tucson, Ariz., Central Arizona College), Rodney Brown (5-10, G, Jr., Phoenix, Ariz., Mesa CC (Ariz.)) and Matthew Jarrett (6-2,<br />
F, Jr., West Helena, Ark., Arkansas Baptist College) are three impact transfer players that will help the Coyotes out from the get go. Add into the mix<br />
freshmen Devon Crabtree (6-2, Fr., Chanute, Kan., Chanute HS), Dante Jordan (6-4, F/C, Oklahoma City, Okla., Putnam City North HS), Tony Milani (6-8,<br />
C, Phoenix, Ariz., Greenway HS) and Brad Wespieser (6-2, G, Phoenix, Ariz., Apollo HS) all have a chance to get some varsity time.<br />
Davert says the look of the Coyotes this season will be a lot like last year, but with an increased talent level and added depth. “Size wise we are a lot<br />
like last year,” Davert said. “But this year we have better depth, we are shooting the ball better and are a lot quicker.”<br />
While not the brutal non-conference slate of a year ago, the Coyotes will face a strong non-conference schedule in 2008-09.<br />
“Our non-conference schedule is strong again this year,” Davert said. “We are going to have to be ready to go from the beginning.”<br />
<strong>Wesleyan</strong> kicks off its 2008-09 campaign on October 31 in the Southern Nazarene Classic against Southwestern Christian <strong>University</strong> in Bethany, Okla.,<br />
before facing the host Crimson Storm on November 1. The Coyotes then open the home portion of the schedule on November 15 against Johnson<br />
and Wales <strong>University</strong>. It will be the first regular season game for the Coyotes inside the new Mabee Arena.<br />

MEN’S BASKETBALL COACHING STAFF<br />
Mike Davert has been the head coach for the KWU Coyotes prior to the start of the 2007-08 basketball season..<br />
Davert is no stranger to <strong>Kansas</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> <strong>University</strong>, serving as assistant coach for former coach and athletic director<br />
Jerry Jones for two seasons in 2004-05 and 2005-06.<br />
Davert succeeded Tommy DeSalme, who coached the Coyotes one year, leading <strong>Wesleyan</strong> to its first KCAC<br />
Championship since the 1999-2000 season, and the school’s first-ever berth to the NAIA Division II National<br />
Championships, while setting a school record for wins in a season with 28.<br />
Davert came to KWU after spending three seasons as head coach<br />
at Southeast of Saline High School, where compiled a 48-19<br />
overall record, and led the Trojans to the 2006-07 KSHSAA Boys’<br />
Class 3A State tournament, finishing with a 22-2 record.<br />
Davert said his coaching philosophy will be to move the ball up the floor, and play with a high level of<br />
intensity on both ends of the floor.<br />
“The style of game I would like to play is full court. The teams I have coached have always pressed full court<br />
and gotten after it defensively,” he said. “It starts with defense, night in and night out the defensive pressure<br />
has to be there. There will be nights when your offense will struggle and you have to go into each game<br />
knowing that you can rely on your defense to get yourself some easy baskets.”<br />
Davert is a native of Escondido, Calif., and after starring at San Pasqual High played one season at Palomar<br />
Community College in San Marcos, Calif., before moving onto Marymount (Kan.) College, where he<br />
graduated with a degree in secondary education in 1985. After Marymount, Davert played professionally in<br />
Dublin, Ireland, for one year, where he was also a coach.<br />
He continued onto Emporia State (Kan.) <strong>University</strong> as a graduate assistant coach for legendary Hornet head<br />
coach Ron Slaymaker for three years while completing his master degree in Health, Physical Education and<br />
Recreation. After Emporia State, he was an assistant coach for one season at Central Missouri State.<br />
Davert spent two seasons as assistant boys’ coach at Orange Glen High School in Escondido, Calif., before<br />
Jones asked Davert to return to <strong>Kansas</strong> as an assistant with the Coyotes in 2004.<br />
He lives in Salina with his wife Kelly.<br />

<strong>Wesleyan</strong> in history in 2001, and completed his MBA degree in 2004 also at KWU.<br />

Coach Lesovsky led the State of <strong>Kansas</strong> in assists his senior year at Hillcrest High School in North Central <strong>Kansas</strong> with 7.7 per game. He<br />
was a three-sport letterman at HHS, earning numerals in football, basketball and track. A little publicized fact is that Brandon holds<br />
the number two all-time <strong>Kansas</strong> record in football for rushing yards in a single game with 483. His combined passes and catches in<br />
that contest also placed him number two all-time in total offense at the tine, 1994. In the <strong>Kansas</strong> Eight-Man All-State Football Game<br />
his senior year, Brandon was named the Most Vaulable Player. Coach Lesovsky went on to earn a football letter as a wide receiver at<br />
During his first stint at KWU, Lesovsky worked with former coach Jerry Jones as an assistant coach, responsible for all aspects of the program, from recruiting to game day<br />
operations. He was also head coach of the KWU tennis programs from 2003 until 2006.<br />
After leaving <strong>Wesleyan</strong> following the 2005-06 season, Lesovsky spent one season at Cowley College in Arkansas City as assistant coach for the Tigers program.<br />
Last season, Lesovsky was an assistant coach at Neosho County Community College in Chanute, working under former <strong>Kansas</strong> <strong>Wesleyan</strong> player Jeremy Coombs, who<br />
assumed the head coaching position for the Panthers prior to the start of the 2007-08 season. Under the direction of Coombs and Lesovsky, Neosho improved from a 5-25<br />
record in 2006-07 to a 14-15 record and fourth place finish in the Jayhawk East last year.<br />
Lesovsky returned to <strong>Wesleyan</strong> for the 2008-09 season to return to the coaching ranks with coach Mike Davert, reuniting the coaching duo that were both assistants under<br />
Jones in 2005-06.<br />

Division II National Tournament.<br />
While playing at KWU, Baron averaged 12.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per<br />
game in his two seasons. He averaged just over 44 percent from the field,<br />
and 43 percent from three point range, making him one of the most<br />
accurate long rangers shooters in KWU history. He earned Honorable<br />
Mention All-KCAC honors as a junior, and earned First Team All-KCAC<br />
honors last season before being named Honorable Mention NAIA All-<br />
American.<br />
