2009-2010 Roster Finalized

Hey Warrior fans, hope everyone is getting excited for the upcoming season. WSU has been busy over the past week as fall sports teams are back and working hard. It is great to see the excitement in the air as each program is expecting great things this season. It will be another great year for Warrior athletics!

Our 2009-10 roster is updated and finalized. (http://www.winonastatewarriors.com/roster.aspx?path=mbball) Click to view
As you will see we have added 4 new players. Zander Culver, Xavier Humphery and Kellen Taylor all signed back during the early signing period last fall and CJ Erickson is transferring in from the University of Evansville after playing a season with the Purple Aces. CJ is originally from Minnetonka High School where he helped lead his team to the 2008 4A State Championship. We are very excited to have all four of the outstanding student-athletes joining an squad which went 24-9 last season with an second round appearance in the NCAA tournament.
Some other changes you will notice to the roster is the numbers that guys will be wearing for this upcoming year. Having ordered new uniforms has allowed our guys to change numbers if they wanted to and many of them did. The new uniform order has been submitted and we soon go to press. The uniforms will be custom made uniforms from Ripon Athletics, which is located in Berlin, Wisconsin. The people over there do a great job coming up with uniform designs and with the help of Eric Malvik we will have another set of uniforms made specifically for Winona State.
Finally, all of the team members will be reporting back to Winona, next week as school get into full swing on August 24th. It is an great time to be back on campus and everyone is ready to get another year in full swing. Keep checking back and hope to see many of you on campus this fall during fall athletic events. GO WARRIORS!!!!
