Guest coachacola Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 For Lamar, tonight’s visit to Arlington is the opener of a two-game road swing that goes through Lake Charles for a 3 p.m. game Saturday. McNeese is the third leg of the payback tour, having been the first of three teams to inflict costly late-season defeats on the Cardinals in 2008. UTA, paced by returning starters Anthony Vereen, a 6-7 senior who averages 16.3 points and 6.2 rebounds, and Roge’r Guignard (11.3 ppg), is 7-7 on the season after dropping its conference opener by the count of 87-76 at Texas-State. Roccaforte, however, suggests to take the record with a grain of salt. For openers, the Mavs will be playing in the cozy confines of Texas Hall for the first time since Nov. 25. They are returning home after playing 10 consecutive road games over 49 days. They are good enough to have won at North Texas and future LU foe Utah Valley, and to have taken No. 23 ranked Baylor to the wire before falling 79-76. http://www.panews.com/sports/local_story_013204711.html?keyword=topstory
