2015 Outlook
After finishing sixth in the Conference standings the past two years, the Bears are ready for the postseason in 2015. On offense, All-CC selection Porada will be the main scoring option down low and will get help from Roadcloud. Polimeni does a little bit of everything and will steady Ursinus on both ends of the floor. On offense, Polimeni can hit the three and will run the point at times. Pownall will also play point and Steinberg is another threat from beyond the arc. Shimrock’s versatility to play under the basket or hit shots on the perimeter gives the Bears a well-rounded offense. If Ursinus, who allowed the second most points per game last season, can play solid defense, it will contend for a spot in the playoffs.
