TORERO OUTLOOK

Page 2

The 1995-96 University of San Diego men's basketball program, under the direction of second year coach Brad Holland, returns four starters and eleven lettermen from last year's squad that finished 11-16 and fifth in the West Coast Conference. Although the team loses just one player, Coach Holland will have a tough time trying to replace him -guard Doug Harris. Harris, a two-time First Team All-West Coast Conference selection, was the lone Torero to start all 27 games while leading the team in scoring (17.2 ppg), field goals made (165), three pointers made (63), free throws made (72), steals (45) and minutes played (928). Coach Holland will be looking for his returning starters to all step up their games to ease the loss of Harris. Leading the way in '95-96 will be seniors Sean Flannery and David Fizdale, both tri-captains last year with Harris. Flannery, a 6-5 swingman from Tucson, Arizona, is the team's top returning scorer (14.0 ppg) and an Honorable Mention All-WCC pick. He led the league in free throw percentage (90.0%) and canned 62 treys, one shy of Harris' school record. Going into his senior year, Sean has 707 career points and 115 career made three-pointers. He should become the school's 15th player to score 1,000+ career points and will have a serious shot at breaking Doug Harris' career record for threes made of 176. Senior David Fizdale, a 6- 2, 185 lb. point guard from Los Angeles, will be one of the league's best. This past season he averaged 8.7 ppg, led the team in assists with 158 (5 .9 apg, 2nd in WCC), and finished second in steals with 44. Among USD Division I players only (1979-95), David currently stands fourth all-time in assists with 270 - he needs 139 this coming season to break Wayman Strickland's mark of 408 (the all-time USD record is 451, set by Stan Washington, 1971-74). The other two starters returning include junior center James Black (6-11, 260 lbs.) and sophomore forward Ryan Williams (6-6, 215 lbs.). Black, who started 14 games last season, is the projected starting center this coming season. He averaged 3.8 ppg and 3.0 rpg while getting just over 18 minutes of playing time a game. Williams, who earned his first start in game nine against Iowa State, was one of the best freshmen in the WCC. He finished the season making 59.1% of his shots while averaging 7.3 ppg and 4.7 rpg. Other key returning contributors include: Brian Bruso (6-7,junior, F/C), who started 15 games, but was the first player off the bench down the stretch, finished with averages of 9.9 ppg and a team-leading 5.3 rpg; Andre Speech (6-8, sophomore, F), played in all 27 games and averaged 4.6 ppg; Rocco Raffo (6-9, senior, C), started seven of twenty games and sparked the team with his hustle; and Val Hill (6-4, senior, F), one of the team's more aggressive defensive specialists. Two returning sophomores that gained valuable experience in their rookie season include Nosa Obasohan (6-5, swingman) and Kareem Mutrie (5-11 , point-guard). Lamont Smith (6-2, freshman, guard), who sat out last season after corrective knee surgery, is expected to help with his defensive abilities and outside shooting. The Toreros two newcomers, Brian Miles (6-9, sophomore, F) and Brock Jacobsen (6-5, freshman, G), are both expected to see considerable action in 1995-96. Miles, who is coming off a two-year church mission, played his freshman year at Utah Valley State. Coming off the bench he averaged 7.4 ppg and proved he has range by canning 45.2% of his three-point attempts. Jacobsen comes to USD via Crescenta Valley High School (coach Holland's alma mater). Selected All-State (third team) by Cal-Hi Magazine , Brock averaged 27 .2 ppg while leading his team to a 25-2 mark (3rd in state). Brock's brother, Adam, is a starting guard at the University of the Pacific, USD's opponent on November 26th in Stockton. USD's schedule will be highlighted by its December 9th encounter with the University of Kansas at the San Diego Sports Arena. USD plays cross-town rival San Diego State at USD on December 2nd. The game will be televised live by Prime Sports West at 5:00 p.m. Other key nonconference home opponents include UC Santa Barbara (Dec. 6), UC Irvine (Dec. 21) and the University of Nevada (Dec. 23). The Toreros' nonconference road slate includes contests at Sacramento State (Nov. 24), Pacific (Nov. 26), Notre Dame (Dec. 28) and Cal State Northridge (Jan. 24). USD opens up WCC play on January 6th in San Diego against San Francisco. The WCC Tourna– ment will again be at Santa Clara University beginning March 2nd with the winner getting the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

HEAD COACH BRAD HOLLAND

Page 4

BRAD HOLLAND ~~~ 2nd Year

Brad Holland enters his second year at the helm of the University of San Diego men's basketball program. The 38-year-old Holland is USD's third head coach since the program turned Division I in 1979, and its tenth coach overall since the school's first season of competition in 1955-56. In his first year Brad guided the San Diego Toreros to an 11-16 overall record and a fifth place finish in the West Coast Conference with a 5-9 mark. The season was highlighted early on when the Toreros downed visiting Notre Dame, 90-76, on Dec. 3rd before 6,522 fans at the San Di– ego Sports Arena. Coach Holland enters the 1995-96 season with a 3- year coaching record of 34-47. Stated USO Director of Athletics Tom Iannacone upon his ap– pointment, "The University of San Diego is pleased and excited to an– nounce Brad Holland as our new men's basketball coach. Brad possesses those personal qualities that are consistent with the values of USO. He understands the role of athletics within our university mission." Prior to USO Holland won rave reviews for the manner in which

he revitalized the Cal State Fullerton men's basketball program. During the 1992-93 season, his first as a head coach, the Titans finished 15-12 and posted the school's first winning record in four years while going 10-8 in the Big West Conference. Along the way they beat every team in the conference except New Mexico State, capping the year with an exciting one-point home victory over nationally ranked UNL V. His 1993-94 team, which lost three players to season-ending injuries prior to the start of the season, finished 8-19 overall and eighth in Big West play. They did have some memorable victories - they won at Nevada and UC Santa Barbara's Thunderdome; they won for the third year in a row at UC Irvine; and they knocked off UNLV with a 84-75 victory at the Thomas and Mack Center. Prior to his appointment at Cal State Fullerton, Holland was an assistant coach on Jim Harrick's staff at UCLA from August, 1988 to March, 1992. He helped the Bruins return to national prominence while com– piling a 93-35 record that took them to four NCAA tournaments. Success as a head coach is merely the latest positive mark

Holland has made on Southern California basketball. He was a bas– ketball and football star at Crescenta Valley High School. He was a four-year basketball letterman at UCLA and played with the Los An– geles Lakers and two other National Basketball Association teams before retiring in 1982 due to a knee injury. He entered private business and also was a broadcaster for Prime Ticket from 1985 to 1988. Holland was the last player recruited by Coach John Wooden and became a part of four Pac-10 championship teams at UCLA from 1976 to 1979, two under Coach Gene Bartow and two under Coach Gary Cunningham. The Bruins went 102-1 7 during Hollands's playing career and he was honorable mention All-America and second-team Academic All-America as a senior. That year he averaged 17.5 points and 4.8 assists and had a .598 field goal per– centage, the best ever by a Bruin guard. He graduated in 1979 from UCLA with a B.A. degree in Sociology. The Lakers drafted Holland in 1979, the 14th player taken in the first round, and went on to win the 1980 NBA championship. The rookie guard scored eight points in the decisive sixth game at Philadelphia. He finished his playing career in 1981-82 with Wash– ington and Milwaukee. Holland and his wife, Leslie, have three children, Kristin and Lisa, 13-year-old twins, and Kyle, age 3.

ASSISTANT COACHES

Page 5 RANDY BENNETT~~ 8th Year Randy Bennett begins his eighth year at the University of San Diego as a full-time assistant coach for the Toreros basketball program. His primary responsibilities will be in the areas of recruiting, scouting and on-court coaching. Prior to his 1988 appointment at USO, Randy coached two seasons (1986- 88) with the University of Idaho as a part-time assistant. The 1987-88 team finished 19-11 and second in the Big Sky Conference. Before his stint with Idaho, he was a volunteer assistant at USO (1985-86) while finishing his un– dergraduate degree at the University of California, San Diego. The past seven summers he has directed USD's Boys Basketball Camps.

A 1986 graduate of UC San Diego, Randy received his B.S. degree in Animal Physiology. He played two years of basketball at UC San Diego (1983-85) and two years at Mesa Community College (1980-82) in Mesa, AZ under his dad, Tom Bennett. In his two years at Mesa, the team went 56-10 and made it to the nationals his freshman year. Randy, who received his M .A. in Education at USO, is single and resides in San Diego. KYLE SMITH Kyle Smith begins his third year at the University of San Diego, and his

first as a full-time assistant. Besides assisting with all aspects of the basketball program, he is also directly involved with the USO Boys Basketball Camp. A graduate student in the University of San Diego's Education De– partment, Kyle is working towards a Master's degree in Educational Leader– ship. The 26-year-old Smith is a 1992 graduate of Hamilton College where he earned a degree in English and minor in Sociology. A four-year basketball performer on Hamilton's team, Smith helped lead his 1990-91 squad to a 26- 1 season (24-0 regular season finish) and #1 national ranking among NCAA Division Ill teams. As a starting point guard, he averaged 10.0 ppg and led the team in assists, steals, free throw percentage and three-point accuracy. A native of Houston, Texas, Smith prepped at Alief Hastings High School (1988 graduate). ROYCE YOUREE

1st Year Royce Youree, who enters his first year with the San Diego staff, brings a wealth of knowledge and coaching experience to the Torero program. A long-time high school and junior college coach in the state of Arizona, the past eight years (1988-95) saw Youree direct the Arizona BCI (Senior Prep National Tournament) . Three times during this span his teams were crowned national champions (1990, 1991 , 1995). Prior to his position with the BCI, he was co-head coach at Mesa Com– munity College (1982-87) where he compiled a 126-37 record and advanced to the NJCAA National Tournament twice. Between 1964-82 he was head coach at East High School where his teams advanced to the State Tournament all thirteen years (modern day record) and had a cumulative record of 301-56. His teams were crowned State Champions five times, with two squads (1980- 81 & 1974-75) going a perfect 28-0 on the season. In 1979 he was one of three high school coaches selected by the

Amateur Basketball Association to coach the United States' National Junior Mens Team in the World Champion– ships in Salvador, Brazil. The USA defeated Brazil 75-55 to earn the Gold Medal. A 1960 graduate of Arizona State, Royce played three years of varsity basketball and baseball, and was recently inducted into the ASU Athletic Hall of Fame. He earned his M.A. in Education in 1962. Royce and his wife, Bonnie, have one daughter, Kimberly.
