Faulkner returns two All-Conference performers form last year's team along with the bulk of its rotation from the 21-10 debut campaign of head coach Scott Sanderson. Nick Drake will continue to start on the wing and look to improve upon his Honorable Mention All-American performance from a year ago. Monta Sanford will be asked to do a little bit more this year as a senior and continue to add toughness, defense and rebounding to the team. Cameron Porter will also look to make an impact this year as he was hurt last year and did not get to play until toward the end of the year. Cameron will likely be one of the best 3-point shooters on the Faulkner team this year. The Eagles also added a few new faces for the 2015-16 season that will likely make an immediate impact - Roberts Baltruns, Matt Pond and Peter Parkitny. Roberts comes to the Eagles from his home country of Latvia. He was on campus for the spring semester of last year which should help him make an immediate impact this year. Matt Pond transferred to Faulkner after playing two years for NCAA Division II school Trevecca Nazarene and the skilled power forward will create space and force opponents to guard much of the floor this year. Finally the Eagles added 6'10 center Peter Parkitny to the 15-16 roster. The freshman will play valuable back-up minutes inside and should prove to be a presence and strong rebounder."
