Delaware looks to con nue the momentum from last year’s sensa onal 25-10 season that included the Blue Hens’ fi rst CAA regular-season and tournament tles and their fi rst NCAA Tournament appearance since 1999.

The Blue Hens face the challenge of replacing four double-digit scorers, but welcome back three-year starter Kyle Anderson in the backcourt. Anderson averaged 11.0 ppg last season and was ed for third in the CAA with 85 three-pointers. He needs just 14 treys to break UD’s career mark of 228. Also returning for UD is junior forward Marvin King-Davis, who made 19 starts last season and tallied 5.1 points and 3.7 rebounds per contest.

Sophomores Devonne Pinkard, Cazmon Hayes and Barne Harris saw me off the bench last season and should challenge for star ng roles. Pinkard averaged 2.4 ppg and hit 20 of his 26 fi eld goals from three- point range. Hayes (2.0 ppg) and Harris made increased contribu ons as the year progressed. Several freshmen could have an immediate impact, led by guards Kory Holden and Chivarsky Corbe and forward Eric Carter.

Drexel overcame numerous injuries to go 16-14 overall last season and posted a .500 or be er mark in CAA play for the sixth year in a row.

The Dragons lost a pair of all-conference standouts in the backcourt, but also get one back as junior Damion Lee returns to the fl oor a er suff ering a season-ending knee injury last November. Lee was the league’s third-leading scorer (17.1 ppg) in 2012-13 and made the All-CAA second team. Sophomore guard Major Canady (2.1 ppg) started 14 contests during his rookie year and commi ed just 17 turnovers in 479 minutes of ac on. Senior Freddie Wilson (2.6 ppg) also returns in the backcourt.

Junior Tavon Allen contributed 11.7 points per game from the wing a year ago and he will step into a more prominent role this season. In the post, forwards Rodney Williams and Mohamed Bah should benefi t from receiving signifi cant playing me as freshmen. Williams earned a spot on the CAA All-Rookie team a er averaging 5.4 ppg and leading all league freshmen in rebounding (5.1 rpg), while Bah chipped in 2.0 ppg and 2.7 rpg.

Hofstra is expected to be among the contenders for a CAA tle in Coach Joe Mihalich’s second season. The Pride returns three of its top four scorers from a year ago and has added several newcomers who are expected to make an immediate impact.

Hofstra’s strength will be in the backcourt. Graduate student Dion Nesmith earned third-team All-CAA honors in his fi rst season with the Pride a er ranking 10th in the league in scoring (13.3 ppg) and second in assists (4.2 apg). Sophomore Jamall Robinson started all 33 games last year and averaged 9.5 ppg and 4.2 rpg to gain a spot on the CAA All-Rookie squad. They will be joined by junior transfer Juan’ya Green, who scored 16.5 ppg and received fi rst-team All-MAAC honors at Niagara in 2012- 13. The Pride has also added Niagara transfer Ameen Tanksley, who scored 11.3 ppg in 2012-13, SMU transfer Brian Bernardi and redshirt freshman Eliel Gonzalez.

Anchoring the post will be senior Moussa Kone, who contributed 7.1 points, 5.9 rebounds and a team-high 37 blocked shots last season. Freshman Rokas Gustys should make an early impact.

Towson con nued its rise under coach Pat Skerry by winning a school-record 25 games and advancing to the quarterfi nals of the CIT last season. The Tigers will need to rebuild with the loss of four starters, including three who earned All-CAA honors.

The lone returning starter is junior forward Timajh Parker-Rivera, who scored 6.2 ppg and was among the CAA’s top 15 in rebounding (5.2 rpg) and blocked shots (1.2 bpg) last season. Also back in the frontcourt are sophomores John Davis (3.2 ppg/2.8 rpg) and Walter Foster (1.5 ppg/3.0 rpg), who made solid contribu ons in their rookie campaigns. The Tigers’ top returnee in the backcourt is junior Four McGlynn, who made 20 starts and averaged 9.2 ppg in his fi rst season at Towson. McGlynn knocked down a team-best 71 three-pointers and also was the CAA’s most accurate free throw shooter (91.3%).

Several newcomers are expected to make an immediate impact. Sophomore guard A.J. Astroth is a transfer from Vanderbilt and forward Alex Gavrilovic was a three-year le erwinner at Dayton. Freshmen guards Byron Hawkins Timajh Parker-Rivera and Eddie Keith could challenge for star ng spots.

William & Mary reached the CAA championship game for the third me in seven years last season and could be in posi on to get there again. The Tribe returns two starters and several key reserves from their 20-12 squad.

W&M is led by one of the na on’s top backcourt players in senior Marcus Thornton, who made the All-CAA fi rst team a er ranking among the league’s top 10 in scoring (18.7 ppg), 3-pointers (93), assists (2.8 apg) and steals (1.1 spg). He’s on pace to become the Tribe’s all- me leading scorer. Also back in the star ng lineup is junior wing Terry Tarpey, who scored 5.4 ppg and led the team in rebounding (6.1 rpg) and steals (35).

Despite coming off the bench, Omar Prewi was honored as the CAA Rookie of the Year last season a er leading all CAA freshmen in scoring (11.4 ppg), assists (63) and 3-pointers (51). Sophomore guard Daniel Dixon (3.5 ppg) overcame early-season injuries and provided an off ensive spark late in the year. Junior Sean Sheldon (3.4 ppg/3.0 rpg) should move into a star ng role in the post.
