2016-17 SCHEDULE/RESULTS
COMING UP
The Buffaloes of West Texas A&M conclude
their five game road trip on Saturday afternoon
as they head to Odessa, Texas to take on the
#25 Falcons of UT Permian Basin with tipoff set
for 4 p.m. at the Falcon Dome. UTPB enters the
weekend on a seven game win streak and
they currently sit in second place in the LSC.
- SCOUTING THE OPPONENT
UT PERMIAN BASIN
UT Permian Basin is led by fourth year head
coach Andy Newman who has led the Falcons
during their transition from the Heartland
Conference to the LSC. Newman spent 10
seasons at Cal State-Fullerton, serving as an
Interim Head Coach for the 2012-13 season
and the Titans’ Associate Head Coach for five
campaigns.
The Falcons enter the week with an overall
record of 17-4 with a 8-3 mark in Lone Star Con-
ference play to sit alone in second place. UTPB
topped Arlington Baptist (101-61) on Tuesday
night in Odessa to run their win streak to seven
games.
UTPB is led offensively by Daeshon Francis who
has gone 135-of-234 from the floor including
10-of-35 from deep and 100-of-129 from the
charity stripe to average 18.1 points per game
to go along with 7.1 rebounds per contest. The
Falcons have gone 648-of-1360 (47.6%) from
the field this season including 193-of-524 (35.6%)
from deep and 407-of-555 (73.3%) from the
free throw line while averaging 45.2 rebounds
per contest and an impressive 90.3 points per
contest to lead the LSC.
The Buffs lead the all-time series against UT
Permian Basin, 6-0 in a series dating back to the
2002-03 season. Five of the six meetings have
come in Canyon, WT took the only meeting be-
tween the two teams in Odessa back on Nov.
19, 2011 (81-75) during the UTPB Classic.
- A LOOK BACK
WNMU RECAP
The #20 Buffaloes of West Texas A&M led by just
four points at the break but WT shot 45.2% from
the field in the second half on their way to a
76-61 road win at Western New Mexico in front
of almost 200 fans at Drag’s Court in Silver City,
New Mexico.
WT went 27-of-64 (42.2%) from the floor
including 8-of-34 (23.5%) from long range
and 14-of-21 (66.7%) from the free throw line
with 43 rebounds (13 offensive, 30 defensive),
16 assists, 13 turnovers, three blocks and 11
steals. Chavlovich went 8-of-14 from the floor
including 2-of-7 from deep to lead the Buffs
with 21 points followed by Quaid (14), Golightly
Jr. (12) and Evans (12) in double figures.
LAST MEETING WITH UTPB (DEC. 6, 2016)
West Texas A&M junior guard David Chavlovich
dropped 28 points and the #22 Buffs held the
nation’s second highest scoring team 19 points
below their season average as WT topped the
visiting Falcons of UT Permian Basin, 89-80 in
front of over 550 fans at the First United Bank
Center in Canyon, Texas.
The Buffs went 29-of-64 (45.3%) from the floor
including 9-of-31 (29%) from deep and 22-
of-26 (84.6%) from the free throw line with 36
rebounds (eight offensive, 28 defensive), 15
assists, 17 turnovers, eight blocks and eight
steals. Chavlovich went 10-of-20 from the floor
including 3-of-9 from deep and 5-of-5 from the
free throw line to lead all players with 28 points
followed by Evans (19), White (15) and Golightly
Jr. (12).
MOVING ON UP
Junior guard David Chavlovich is quickly
making his way up WT’s all-time career scoring
list as the Arlington native has scored 1,554
points in his 82 career games in Maroon &
White to average an impressive 19.0 points per
contest. Chavlovich’s 21 points against Western
New Mexico on Saturday afternoon in Silver
City kept the junior guard in second place
all-time after passing Reggie Ramey (1973-76 /
1,440). Chavlovich now sits just 12 points behind
Martin Lattibeaudiere (1993-97 | 1,566) for WT’s
all-time scoring mark.

Tom Brown was hired on April 16, 2014, as the
17th head coach in WT men’s basketball history.
In just two short years Brown has turned around
the West Texas A&M University Basketball Program.
Brown led the team to its first 20+ win season since
2010-11. The Buffs were picked to finish 5th in the
LSC this past season and despite a pre-season,
season ending injury to sophomore starter Carl
White the team still managed to finish 2nd in the
LSC with an overall record of 21-10. The 2nd place
finish is the highest since the conference was split
North/South. The Buffs continued to battle minor
injuries throughout the year but every player that
was called on would step up. Under Brown’s di-
rection the team had some very strong individual
performances. WT sophomore guard David Chav-
lovich led the way. For his outstanding play David
was named an NABC All-American, the Lone Star
Conference Player of the Year and 1st Team All-
LSC selection. Sophomore Jordan Evans (playing
in his first season) received honorable mention
All-LSC acclaim. The Buffs again were dominate in
the classroom as the team GPA exceeded a 3.0
for the year.
2015-16 the Buffs set a new record in the class-
room. The team recorded the highest GPA for
Men’s Basketball in a season.
Coach Brown inherited a WT team that won
two games in the LSC and 10 games overall in
2013-14. Brown had to start from scratch in late
April, the team had three seniors and one walkon
redshirt freshman. Just three student-athletes saw
playing time from the previous year and the team
was picked to finish last in the Lone Star Confer-
ence Preseason Poll. However, under Brown West
Texas A&M University finished the season 5th in the
LSC and posted a 17-12 overall record. The Buffs
made the LSC Tournament as the fifth seed. There
were some individual accolades as well, all three
of the returning seniors improved on their scoring
average from the previous season. Tez Dumars
surpassed Maurice Cheeks in WT All-Time scoring
and finished his career ranked 4th All-Time in
scoring at WT. David Chavlovich was the squads
leading scorer, 2nd Team All-Conference Perform-
er and the Freshman of the Year in the LSC as he
averaged 16.5 points per contest to go along with
93 assists and 30 steals.
In 2014-15, the Buffs set a new record in the
classroom. The team recorded the highest GPA
for Men’s Basketball in a season.
Tom was the driving force as the Associate
Head Coach and head recruiter in the most
successful Division II men’s basketball program
in recent history at Winona State University. The
Warriors won the NCAA Division II National Cham-
pionship in 2006 and 2008 and finished as the
National Finalist in 2007. During that span, Winona
State posted an unprecedented 105-6 record.
WT Assistant Coach Quincy Henderson played for
Coach Brown from 2005-2008. Quincy’s record as
a collegiate player at WSU was 105-6.
Named Division II Bulletin’s ‘Program of the
Decade’ for 2000-2009, WSU set a NCAA Division II
record with 57 consecutive wins, a run that began
on Jan. 13, 2006, and didn’t end until the national
title game on Mar. 24, 2007. The 2007-08 Warrior
squad won a NCAA record 38 games.
An excellent recruiter and teacher, Brown
recruited and developed some of the best
players in the nation with three National Player
of the Year recipients, along with seven first team
All-America honorees. 11 players total have
earned All-America status including WT Sopho-
more David Chavlovich. Brown has coached five
NSIC Most Valuable Players, seven NSIC Defen-
sive Players of the Year and two Elite Eight Most
Valuable Players.
Brown is doing it again at WT as David Chav-
lovich has earned both Freshman of the Year and
Player of the Year in the best Division II Confer-
ence in the Nation, the Lone Star Conference.
Brown attended and played basketball
(1988-1992) and baseball (1991) at Winona State
University. He finished his Warrior career ranked
fifth in program history in scoring, second in assists
and first in steals. He earned his bachelor’s degree
in 1993 in physical education and completed his
master’s degree in education in 1998.
He and his wife Dr. Trisha Brown are the proud
parents of three children, TJ, Zach and Ella. Dr.
Brown is currently an Instructor and works in the
Sports & Exercise Science Department at West
Texas A&M.
