BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — The WKU Hilltopper Basketball program was showcased Tuesday afternoon during the annual WKU Basketball Media Day festivities at E.A. Diddle Arena as the season tips off in 13 days.
Head coach Ray Harper addressed the media in the Paul Just Media Room, and the players were available in the locker room for interviews following Harper’s session. The Lady Topper Basketball program followed the same format Tuesday afternoon.
“We’ve got a few more athletes, especially on the perimeter,” Harper said about the team’s depth in 2014-15. “We’ve looked at some different combinations. I think that’s important because sometimes a game dictates how you need to be playing, and every game is different. We haven’t necessarily been able to do that at all times the past couple of seasons.”
The 2014-15 Hilltoppers return their four leading scorers from 2013-14 and 72.5 percent of their scoring overall, and the 17 combined varsity letters on the 2014-15 squad are the most since the 2008-09 Hilltoppers also had 17 combined letters of experience entering the season.
