MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Keno Davis knew his team would have an entirely different vibe in 2017-18 than it had a year ago.
He got a taste of just how different when he guided his CMU men’s basketball to the championship of the Great Alaska Shootout over the weekend.
“In a small sample size we’re showing the difference that a year can make, that our guys have shown that they can win on the defensive end,” Davis said on Monday after he and his team traveled across four time zones from Anchorage to Mount Pleasant with the gold pan that goes to the tournament winner.
