Morgan’s men’s basketball team will kick off their 2021-22 season this Tuesday with a home opener against St. Mary’s College of Maryland at 6 p.m. in Hill Field House.

Junior guard De’Torrion Ware, senior guard Malik Miller and senior forward Lagio Grantsaan are expected to be key contributors for this year’s team.

Ware was named the MEAC Preseason Player of the Year after averaging 17.2 points per game last season.

Ware was also selected for the MEAC Preseason First Team alongside Miller.

Grantsaan was named to the MEAC Preseason Second Team.

Newcomers to the men’s basketball team include University of South Carolina graduate transfer Seventh Woods and University of New Mexico graduate transfer Keith McGee.

Woods averaged 5.4 points per game last season and McGee averaged 5.9.
