The 2014–15 Mount St. Mary's Mountaineers men's basketball team represented Mount St. Mary's University during the 2014–15 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Mountaineers played their home games at Knott Arena, a 3,500-seat facility on the university's campus in Emmitsburg, Maryland. For the 26th season, the team was a member of the Northeast Conference.

The team was led by third-year head coach Jamion Christian, who prior to the season was given a contract extension to coach the team through the 2018–19 season.[1]

Newcomers to the team included Chris Martin and Andrew Smeathers, transfers from Marshall and Butler, respectively.[2] Martin joined the team at the beginning of the season; however, due to NCAA transfer rules, Smeathers was unable to join the team until the December 20 game against American, the first game after the end of the fall semester.[3] Other incoming players included freshmen Troy Henderson, Chris Manning, Lamont "Junior" Robinson, Mawdo "Mo" Sallah and Chris Wray.[4] At 5-foot-5, Robinson was the shortest player in Division I men's basketball for the 2014–15 season.[5]

The Mountaineers finished the season 15–15, 11–7 in NEC play, to finish fourth in the conference. They lost in the quarterfinals of the 2015 NEC Tournament to St. Francis (PA).

Incoming Freshmen

Chris Wray, a 6-foot-8 forward who attended Fishburne Military School in Waynesboro, Virginia, announced his intention to play for Mount St. Mary's in September 2012 while he was a senior at Shelby High School in North Carolina.[11] As a junior at Shelby High prior to his commitment, he averaged more than 11 points and 6 rebounds.[11]

Lamont "Junior" Robinson, a 5-foot-5 point guard from Mebane, North Carolina, announced in June 2013 that he was giving a verbal commitment to Mount St. Mary's.[12] Robinson averaged 22 points and 5.3 assists per game in his senior year at Eastern Alamance High School, and was named to North Carolina's all-state team.[12]

Mawdo "Mo" Sallah, a 6-foot-8 center, announced his commitment to Mount St. Mary's in October 2013.[13] A native-born Gambian, Sallah came to the United States as a teenager and attended Broadfording Christian Academy in Hagerstown, Maryland, before going to Fishburne Military School as a post-graduate.[13] In his senior year at BCA, Sallah averaged 18 points, 14.8 rebounds and 4.5 blocked shots.[13]

Chris Manning, a 6-foot-7 forward from Randallstown, Maryland, committed to Mount St. Mary's in May 2013.[14] Troy Henderson, a 6-foot-9 forward from Gastonia, North Carolina, joined the Mountaineers after a senior season at Gaston Day School during which he averaged 12 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks.[15] Both Manning and Henderson were redshirted for the 2014–15 season by Mount St. Mary's.[15][16]

Incoming Transfers

Chris Martin, a 6-foot-0 shooting guard from Upper Marlboro, Maryland, transferred to Mount St. Mary's from Marshall in April 2013. Pursuant to NCAA transfer rules, Martin sat out the 2013–14 season and joined the team in 2014–15.[17] In two seasons with Marshall, Martin appeared in 41 games and averaged 2.3 points per game.[17]

Andrew Smeathers, a 6-foot-8 forward from Bargersville, Indiana, announced in December 2013 that he would be transferring to Mount St. Mary's from Butler.[18] During his two seasons at Butler, Smeathers scored just 63 points.[18] Because of the timing of his transfer, Smeathers had to sit out the Mountaineers' first eight games of the 2014–15 season before he was eligible to play.[19]

Roster
Last update: 02/14/2015

Pre-season

Despite having advanced to the NCAA Tournament in the 2013–14 season as winners of the 2014 NEC Tournament, the Mountaineers were ranked fifth of the 10 teams in the conference in its preseason poll.[20] This was due in part to the team having lost its three leading scorers from the previous season (Julian Norfleet, Rashad Whack and Sam Prescott) to graduation.[20]

The website Big Apple Buckets, which covers college basketball in the Northeast, named Chris Martin to its Preseason NEC All-Conference Third Team, saying that he "may struggle during the Mount’s insanely difficult non-conference schedule, but by the time NEC play rolls around, we expect the Marshall transfer to lead his team in scoring and be a pest defensively. His ability to score a variety of ways will help temper the loss of the graduating Big Three."[21]

On November 1, the team played a scrimmage against Division III Randolph–Macon College.[22]

The Mountaineers dropped their home opener against Maryland Eastern Shore, 53–41, to fall to 0–2 on the season. Byron Ashe led the Mountaineers with nine points as the team shot just 29.8 percent (14 of 47) from the field.[24]

The Mountaineers got their first win of the season with a 73–69 win on the road against Bucknell. Gregory Graves led the way with 16 points and seven rebounds.[25]

December

Mount St. Mary's fell to 1–4 on the season a 23-point loss to Seton Hall on December 2. The Pirates took a 30–19 lead in the game's first 12 minutes and never looked back.[27]

In the 170th meeting of a rivalry dubbed the Catholic Clash, the Mountaineers defeated Loyola in the 170th meeting of a rivalry dubbed the Catholic Clash. With the win, in which the Mountaineers shot 11-of-19 from three-point range, Mount St. Mary's took a 98–72 all-time lead in the series.[28]

Mount St. Mary's then faced their second ranked opponent of the season, #25 Notre Dame, and fell to 2–5 with a 93–67 loss. Chris Martin led the Mountaineers with 19 points, including 5-of-9 from three-point range.[29]

The Mountaineers got their first home win of the season on December 13 with a 67–64 overtime victory over Norfolk State. Taylor Danaher sealed the win by blocking a three-point shot in the waning seconds.[30]

American defeated the Mountaineers 46–45 on December 20 on a last-second tip-in, dropping the Mountaineers to 3–6 on the season. Mount St. Mary's outrebounded the Eagles 35–27, but they shot only 34 percent (17-of-50) from the field.[31]

The Mountaineers nearly lost a home game to one of the worst teams in Division I, Binghamton, before escaping with a 69–68 win. The game marked the home debut of transfer Andrew Smeathers, and he hit two free throws with 2.9 seconds to play to give the Mountaineers the win.[32]

On December 29, the Mountaineers were defeated 69–35 by Conference USA's Old Dominion to finish non-conference play with a record of 4–7.

In their return home after a four-game road trip, the Mountaineers were defeated by Sacred Heart, 62–55, on February 12.[46] Two days later, led by a career-high 24 points from Byron Ashe, the team got a victory at home over Bryant, 75–68.[47] On February 19, the Mountaineers got 54 points off their bench and improved to the .500 mark (13–13) for the first time on the season with an 82–65 win over LIU Brooklyn.[48] On February 21, Mount St. Mary's pulled into a three-way tie for second place in the conference at 10–6 after defeating Fairleigh Dickinson, 75–64.[49]

Conference Tournament

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>

Main article: 2015 Northeast Conference Men's Basketball Tournament

Mount St. Mary's qualified for the NEC tournament as the No. 4 seed.[52] Big Apple Buckets ran 10,000 simulations of the conference tournament prior to its start, giving the Mountaineers a 27% chance of reaching the championship game and an 11% chance of winning the title.[53]

In the quarterfinals at Knott Arena on March 4, the Mountaineers lost 73–58 to Saint Francis (PA), the No. 5 seed, and were eliminated from the tournament.[54] It marked only the third time Mount St. Mary's lost an NEC Tournament game at home, and the first time since 2006. In addition, it was the first time the Mountaineers lost to Saint Francis (PA) at the Knott Arena since 2004.[54]

Speaking after the game, Christian said "I think a little bit of our inexperience did hit us."[54]

Postseason

Three teams from the NEC were given bids to postseason tournaments; however, Mount St. Mary's was not one. Robert Morris went to the NCAA Tournament as winners of the conference tournament;[55] St. Francis Brooklyn went to the NIT as regular-season NEC champions;[56] and Saint Francis (PA) was awarded a bid to the CIT.[57]

Martin transferred again following the season, this time to Savannah State University.[58] Smeathers also left the program after the season, citing injuries.[59]

Awards

On March 3, the Northeast Conference officially named Byron Ashe and Gregory Graves to its All-Conference Third Team, saying Ashe's "emergence as a legitimate scoring and outside shooting threat gave Mount St. Mary's the spark it needed this season as the team looked to fill the void left by the graduation of three 1,000-point scorers" and Graves was a "much-improved offensive contributor this season (who) handles much of the dirty work inside for the Mount and its "Mayhem" approach."[60] Junior Robinson, who "already has proven to be a big time player for the Mount after assuming the starting point guard spot from game one", was named to the All-Conference Rookie Team.[60]

Big Apple Buckets also named Ashe and Graves to its NEC All-Conference Third Team, saying Ashe "emerged as a better player and the Mount’s go-to-scorer, posting double-digit point totals in nine of his last 10 games", while Graves displayed "dominance on the boards, as he impressively grabbed 9.6% and 21.2% of the offensive and defensive rebounds."[61] The site also named Robinson to its NEC All-Conference Rookie Team, saying he "utilized his elite speed and quickness to post double-digits in scoring for half of his conference games."[61]

Ashe was also named Second Team All-District by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.[62]

Media

Mountaineers home games and select road games were broadcast on WTHU 1450 AM in Thurmont, Maryland. Play-by-play was by Adam Pohl, with color commentary by Roy Sigler.[63]

Live streaming video of all conference games and out-of-conference home games was available at www.necfrontrow.com.[64]
