"Our record doesn't indicate the successes we obtained throughout the 2015-16 campaign of Sun Basketball" says Head Coach Cedric Jones. "I would like to thank the players for their support and buying in to our system. We battled nightly against great competition. As the season moved into conference play, our players had bought in to the system and really showed their fight each night in every contest. As a result of the hard work and perseverance, three players were nominated to the All-Conference Team."
