Brandeis
Brandeis has graduated Lien, Justice and Brown this season, but return Harris, Edwards, Zene and Power among others. 

Harris may well be the conference player of the year as a junior.  Edwards had a great freshman campaign until his injury.  Zene was also very good in his first-year.

I think Brandeis is going to be very good next season and will finish in the top half of the conference.  I would not be surprised to see them in Top 25 if they can get a few more guys to step up.

WUPHF

Emory
Emory returns everyone who played substantial minutes other than Mason Johnson who had a quality senior season, finishing with 13 points and 7 rebounds per game. 

That includes three players who scored in double-digits including Pearce, Knight and Martens as well as Fallas, Whelton, Shanahan among others. 

Emory is going to be very good next season.

Rochester men's basketball has just announced via Twitter, the men's basketball teams competing in the 2023 UAA/NESCAC Challenge this December, 2023.

The field has expanded to 6 UAA teams vs 6 NESCAC teams in 3 pairings, with each UAA team playing against the 2 NESCAC teams in their group and vice versa.

Pairings 1 and 2 will remain the same, with Rochester and Carnegie Mellon once again playing Bowdoin and Middlebury.

Brandeis and Emory will once again play Colby and Bates.

The new group will have UChicago and NYU play Hamilton and Connecticut College.

Sites and Times TBD.

Nice late recruiting pick-up for Emory, JB Frankel, who is a highly-ranked point guard in New England:

Between him and last year's impressive frosh guard trio of Pearce, Knight and Thomas, Emory should be all set at guard for the next three years.

Looks like Frankel is actually going to Northeastern. Not sure why NERR originally said Emory. He would've been a great D3 player.

The Spartans were the second oldest team in the league with Prendergast and Frauenheim along with Frilling and a few other seniors. 

Frilling may well return which would big for the Spartans for all the obvious reasons.  He averaged 15 ppg and 8 rpg this season.  McGuiness had suggested that he hopes Frilling returns in one of his weekly recaps.

Drenth was not on the roster, but others here said he would be back next season after returning from an injury.  Drenth had a good sophomore campaign and would bring much needed size to the post, though Rashid (13 ppg, 5 rpb) was just a sophomore and had a very good year. 

Trunley (8 ppg) Elam (7 ppg, 5 rpg) and Thorburn (7 ppg, 5 rpg) also return.

CWRU is adding three grad students:

* 6'5" Preston Maccoux (15.6 ppg, 5.8 rpg) from Wesleyan
* 6'3" Richie Manigault (10.9 ppg, 4.7 rpg) from Washington & Lee
* 6'3" Anthony Mazzeo (18.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg) from Baldwin Wallace

My guess is that this is going to change the outlook on the 2023-23 UAA quite a bit.

Four grad students.  They also added Sewanee forward Colin Kahl.

Kahl is 6'7" and was Sewanee's primary big man, averaging 16.6 and 6.2 for the Tigers. He has nice moves and good touch around the basket. He'll be a nice addition as well.

6'5" Brookfield Academy(Wisconsin) F, Anthony Przybilla, committed to Wash U.  Przybilla had a D2 offer from University of Indianapolis.

I had seen someone say that a RIT player transferred to CWRU a while back but couldn't find out who it was at the time.  That's a pretty big loss for RIT and a definite gain for Case. He developed quite a bit from his freshman to sophomore year.

Also noticed a couple players on WashU "shrank" a few inches compared to last year.
