Engellantaveraged 17.3 PPG, and 5.5 rebounds, and his field goal percentage, .692, is impressive considering the fact he pulled the trigger 299 times. Sullivan, 6*6\ forward from. ' Butte, averaged 9.1 PPG and grabbed 9.l.caroms. “They played a lot last year and are really working hard to improve,” noted Keltz. “If we . are to earn a playoff spot, these guys are going to have to lead us.” Keltz returns five other letter- men to the squad. Anthony Gullo, 6' senior from French- town, 6' senior Brian Henderson from Malta, 6’4” junior Scott C a s e y K e l t z Ferguson from Butte, ^ \ 'j u n ior Shawn Smith from Helena, and 6 ’5 \ sophomore Brendon McMahon firom Missoula, saw plenty of action last year and will be counted on to pick up the slack left by the graduation of Jeff E lliott, Dave Cornelia, and Roger Fuchs. .

Any of them are po tial starters. “The keys to the season are to get through it without injuries to key players and to work h ard, on defense. “Our guard area was h it hard by graduation. We need to work hard to replace E lliott and Cor nelia. Vanderzanden w ill step into the middle, but Rosengar ten will see plenty of playing time. \We have a very tough non- conference schedule which in cludes Gonzaga and Idaho State,” added Keltz. “We should be prepared for anything when Frontier Conference action starts.\ The Western Montana Col lege Men’s schedule is listed below: WMC Men’s B a sketball Schedule 1989-90 Nov. 10—Northwest Naxerene, Home Nov. 11 - College o f Idaho, Home Nov. 18-North Idaho College, Home Nov. 25 - Gonzaga, Spokane Nov. 29 - Ricks College, Rexburg, ID Dec. 1-College o f Idaho, Lewiston, ID Dec. 2 - Northwest Nazerene, Nampa, ID Dec. 8 - Rocky Mountain, Billings Dec. 9 - Rocky Mountain, Billings Dec. 12 - Idaho State, Pocatello, ID Dec. 18 - Ricks College, Home Dec. 29 -Northern Montana, Home Dec. 30 -Northern Montana, Home Jan. 5 - Montana Tech, Butte Jan. 6 - Montana Tech, Butte Jan. 12 - Carroll College, Home Jan. 13 - Carroll College, Home Jan. 16 - College of Southern Idaho, Twin F alls, ID Jan. 26 - Montana Tech, Home Jan. 27 - Montana Tech, Home Feb. 2 - Northern Montana, Havre Feb. 3—Northern Montana, Havre Feb. 9 - Rocky Mountain, Home Feb. 10 - Rocky Mountain, Home Feb. 16 — Canroll College, Helena Feb. 17 - Carroll College, Helena Phole 6y Kevin WhtteeMh C a tch m e If y o u c a n ...

W e w illtiy to run the ball more and press teams into mistaken “Right now we are working on quickness in the transition game,” stressed Cooper. “We are s till in the progress \of shifting personnel and trying to find the right chemistiy. “Our keys for the season are to play outstanding defense a ll the time,' shoot well from the pe rimeter, and to play well as a team,” said Cooper. “I look for this team to be veiy competitive in the conference. Northern and Rocky will have fine teams, but I feel we match up well with them. I believe that the best competition we will go up against will come against conference foes.” The Western women’s basket ball schedule is listed below: The fireshman girls basket ball team closed out the season last weekend with two wins, while the junior varsity ended the season with two tough losses.
