PERSONAL: Undecided major…son of Carolyn Syass…COACH PFEIFER ON BROTHERS: “Like several of our returning players this will be the first time Martin has played in the same program for back to back seasons.  On top of that we didn’t have him in a uniform until Christmas last season.  The simple fact he is a returner and ready to play right away are both huge bonuses.  When he gets the ball next to the rim he is as crafty a scorer as we have had.  He is one of those players who has the knack of putting the ball in the basket.  With that he is a good rebounder and passer.  All these ingredients earned him All-American honors last season for a reason.”
