Colgate Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Last season was a disappointing one for the Red Raiders.

Coming off an appearance in the 2008 Patriot League final, Colgate fell victim to inconsistent play and injuries to key players. Now, with a roster laden with returning starters, and the return of medical redshirt small forward Kyle Roemer, the Red Raiders look to improve on last season's struggles.

The 6-3 Roemer, who tore a knee ligament during last year's preseason, joins a roster featuring 6-6 forward Ben Jonson, the Raiders' only other senior. Mike Venezia and backup point guard Joe Hoban, both 6-1, are the only juniors.

This team is young, but they can definitely score. Venezia (10.8 ppg, 2.6 rpg) led the team in scoring last season and knocked down a team-high 55 3-pointers.
