In an A-10 Basketball league that should be dominated by the star-power of its upperclassmen, there are still plenty of young players to get excited about.

As a disciple of Atlantic 10 Basketball, it’s difficult to wait patiently for this upcoming college basketball season to begin. With the top teams retaining the vast majority of their players and the middle and bottom ones set to become significantly more competitive, the A-10 should be a much improved edition of the one we saw last year.

There have been several unfortunate losses in terms of transfers and pro-career departures (eg. Josh Cunningham, Eric Williams, Charlie Brown, Luwane Pipkins), but many of those should pave the way for formerly solid underclassmen to step up and become stars.

Of course, the four players named in this article do not exhaust the list of Sophomores who will see improved numbers this season – rather, they are the ones whose situations will be most conducive to major boosts in production and possibly even arrivals into A10 stardom.
