Sometimes losing one player can make a big difference

Drexel lost only one player from the 2011-12 team that went 29-7, and looked like they were poised to make a big splash on the basketball scene this past season. Their talented point guard was back, and three of their top four scorers.

The problem is that the one player they lost was Samme Givens. He was only 6-5 - an undersized power forward - and scored only 11.6 ppg and garnered only 7.9 rpg; but he was the cog that make the whole machine run, evidently. This past year Drexel fell to 13-18.
