In the most recent matchup with an America East foe, the Patriots defeated UMBC, 69-53, on Dec. 21, 2019, inside EagleBank Arena. Then-sophomore Jamal Hartwell II tallied 14 points (6-11 FG) in the victory.

A LOOK AT STONY BROOK (0-0, 0-0 AMERICA EAST; KenPom 185)Stony Brook was picked to finish first in the 2021-22 America East preseason poll and received five of a possible nine first place votes. The Seawolves return seven of their top-8 scorers from 2021-22 and welcome back Preseason All-Conference selection Elijah Olanyi, who was a two-time all-league pick at Stony Brook before transferring to Miami (Fla.) for the 2020-21 campaign. Olanyi is part of a four-player transfer class which features the most career points of any incoming class in the nation. The group includes Jahlil Jenkins, who averaged 16.8 points and shot 38 percent from 3-point range at Fairleigh Dickinson last season.

TUESDAY’S MATCHUP

FAIRFAX, Va. - George Mason University Vice President/Director of Athletics Brad Edwards has named Kim English as the 11th head coach in the history of the Patriot men’s basketball program.

An outstanding basketball mind with an impeccable pedigree as a player, coach and leader, English comes to Fairfax from the University of Tennessee, where he most recently served as an assistant coach under former Mason bench boss Rick Barnes.

“Kim English is a rising star in the college basketball world,” Edwards said. “He is a tremendous communicator, tireless worker and a natural leader. He develops a unique rapport with his players, which fuels their development and enriches their overall experience as student-athletes. His success at the highest levels of the game, elite recruiting ability and knowledge of the DMV area will provide our program with an outstanding foundation to establish a standard of competitive excellence in the Atlantic 10 and at the national level.”

An All-Big 12 selection as a player at the University of Missouri, the Baltimore native was selected in the second round (44th overall) of the NBA Draft and played for the Detroit Pistons before finishing his professional career within the international ranks.

ODURO TAKES MAJOR STEP FORWARD IN 2020-21Preseason All-A-10 Third Team selection Josh Oduro put together a breakout sophomore season in 2020-21. After averaging 4.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 16.9 minutes as a freshman, he more than doubled his scoring average (10.0 ppg) and grabbed 6.0 rebounds per contest while shooting 50.8 percent in 23.6 minutes/game. His 2.8 offensive rebounds/game ranked third-most in the A-10 and 60th nationally. The Gainesville, Va., product posted five double-digit scoring outings in 32 games as a freshman, then improved that to 11 double-figure scoring games in just 22 contests as a sophomore. Oduro poured in a career-best 27 points at VCU on Feb. 20, 2021, earning A-10 Player of the Week honors in the process.

TALK ABOUT AN EFFICIENCY APARTMENT!Graduate students DēVon Cooper and D’Shawn Schwartz are Mason roommates who combined for quite the 2021 NCAA Tournament showing at their previous schools. At Colorado, Schwartz averaged 15 points, shot 64.7 percent from the floor and 66.7 percent from 3-point range in two 2021 NCAA Tournament games. That included an 18-point performance in a win over Georgetown in which he hit 5-of-7 3-pointers. Meanwhile, Cooper tallied a team-high 21 points for Morehead State in their NCAA matchup with West Virginia and knocked down 5-of-8 3-pointers. In all, the roommates combined to shoot a sizzling 65 percent from deep (13-20) during the Big Dance.

HARTWELL II READY FOR A SIZZLING SENIOR CAMPAIGNA career 39.1 percent shooter from 3-point range in A-10 games, senior Jamal Hartwell II brings a lethal stroke from deep to the 2021-22 roster. He led the A-10 in 3-point percentage in league games as a junior (.452) and shot 48.6 percent in league games as a freshman. After battling injury and illness over the past two campaigns, Hartwell II looks to put together his best, most consistent season as a senior.

MASON WELCOMES THREE FRESHMEN TO 2021-22 ROSTERMason welcomes in three scholarship players in its 2021 class. That trio includes guard/forward TJ Gadsden (New York, N.Y.), guard Mike Gray (Fredericksburg, Va.) and forward Blake Jones (Canberra, Australia). At St. Andrew’s Episcopal in Maryland, Gadsden led the Lions in 2019-20 to a top-5 WaPo ranking and the program’s first MAC title since 2015. Gray is a three-time state champion at the Blue Ridge School, where he earned VISAA and Central Virginia Player of the Year accolades as a junior. Jones led Queensland to the U-20 Australian national title and competed for his home country at the FIBA U-19 World Cup this summer.

JONES IMPRESSES FOR AUSTRALIA IN 2021Mason incoming freshman Blake Jones put together an outstanding spring and summer of work in his home country in 2021. He was named the MVP of the Australian U-20 National Championship after leading his native Queensland to the title. He became just the second Aussie ever to win two MVP awards, joining Brooklyn Nets guard Patty Mills. He led the tournament in rebounding (9.4 rpg) and ranked second in scoring (20.0). He went on to suit up for Australia in the FIBA U-19 World Cup in Latvia in July and also played professional basketball for the NBL’s Brisbane Bullets earlier in the year.

ENGLISH ASSEMBLES TALENTED COACHING STAFFHead coach Kim English brings an outstanding coaching staff with him to Fairfax for his inaugural season. Associate head coach Dennis Felton has 13 years of experience as a head coach and led his teams to seven conference titles and four NCAA berths during his accomplished career. English also retained assistant coach Duane Simpkins from the previous Mason staff, who brings a McDonald’s All-American pedigree,
