WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - With a number of William and Mary men's basketball players
on campus during the summer, Tribe Basketball All-Access gives fans a look as
some individual workouts. With changes in NCAA rules, the Tribe coaching staff
was allowed a select amount of time each week to do on-court instruction with
student-athletes who were on campus during the summer.
The Green and Gold returns nine players with starting
experience, including former CAA All-Rookie Team selections
Brandon Britt and
Marcus Thornton. Thornton is the College's top returning scorer at 11 points
per game, while junior forward
Tim Rusthoven is one of the CAA's top returning
rebounders (6.6 rpg) to go along with 10.3 points per game. The Tribe returns
72.3 percent of its scoring (1397 of 1931), 70.8 percent of its rebounding (701
of 990) and 70 percent of its assists (240 of 343) from last season. The
captains for the Green and Gold in 2012-13 will be seniors
