Prairie View A&M surprised more than a few people with its 12-6 record in SWAC play a year ago.

Coach Byron Rimm II and his squad return five of the top six scorers from that team hoping to do a little more damage this season.

Rimm's squad wasn't flashy, but they held teams down defensively and were able to pull out some victories late in the year.

Last year's conference Newcomer of the Year, Darnell Hugee, is back for his senior campaign after leading the Panthers in scoring (12.0 ppg) and rebounding (7.3 rpg) despite playing just over 24 minutes per game.

Rimm will rely on Hugee and fellow senior Christopher Jones to assume bigger leadership roles and help the newcomers to the team blend in well.
