The Regis Men’s Basketball team wasted no time getting off to a hot start in the RMAC challenge! On top of the victorious weekend for the Rangers, senior Ty Mcgee joined the 1000 point club only one game into the season, Christian Little earned RMAC defensive player of the week, and Coach Brady Bergeson earned his 100th career win.
Starting off the weekend this past Friday, the Rangers faced a tough St. Mary’s team that made the trek to Denver all the way from Texas. St. Mary’s was able to push the Rangers to double overtime, but Regis would come away with the win 83-82. Dexter Sienko helped lead the way for the Rangers finishing the game with 23 points and going 9-15 from the field. Christian Little also tacked on a nifty 19 points and nine rebounds.
If you weren't convinced after Friday that the Rangers were the real deal, Saturday was the icing on the cake. The Rangers looked even better than they did the previous day beating Lubbock Christian University 89-74. The Rangers were able to find a way to incorporate all players into their offense with three players scoring in the double digits this game. Jarret Brodbeck led the way with 18, followed by Christian Little 14 and Ty Mcgee tacked on another 11.
Next Up for the Rangers will be Johnson and Wales University (0-5) Wednesday at 7 P.M in the field house.

This past weekend the Regis University Men's Basketball team kicked off their season with a trip to Wyoming. The team fell short losing 75-65, but some may consider it a win. The University of Wyoming, a division 1 program, came out swinging but the Rangers were able to keep up for most of the game.
Senior Dexter Sienko led the Rangers with 15 points and 7 rebounds followed by Senior Ty Mcgee with 13 points and 4 rebounds.
With the team only having 3 incoming Freshman, watch out for the Rangers veterans to shine this season.
Coming up this weekend, Regis Athletics will be hosting the RMAC/Heartland challenge in the field house. The Rangers will be playing against St. Mary’s University (TX) on Saturday at 1:30 followed by a 1:30 tipoff on Sunday against Lubbock Christian University. With both competitors being very similar in talent to the Rangers, these games won't be ones to miss. Colorado School of mines will also be competing in the tournament, but the Rangers will not be playing them.
This weekend will be the first test for the Rangers to see if they can capitalize on the 7 straight home games that they will begin the season with. The Rangers won't have to travel again until December 9th so hopefully, the extra rest and home game atmosphere will bring the Rangers success.
Come on out and support your fellow Rangers at their home opener this Saturday!
