Your 2012-13 Seattle Redhawks

The Seattle Redhawks are now a WAC entity and here's the best PTW could do in determining Coach Cameron Dollar's latest roster:

Frontcourters 

* T.J. Diop, 6-foot-8, 215, senior

2.3 points and 2.0 rebounds per game, shot 45% overall

* Gavin Gilmore, 6-foot-8, 220 senior (played little)  

* Louis Green, 6-foot-9, 240, senior 

3.8 points and 2.6 rebounds, shot 54% overall

* Obie Hurt, 6-foot-7, 230, sophomore  (played little)

* Chad Rasmussen, 6-foot-7, 200, senior

5.2 points per game, 36% overall shooting, 36% from long distance, shot four free throws in 505 minutes

* Deshaun Sunderhausm, 6-foot-9, 215, redshirt freshman (didn't play)

* Clarence Trent, 6-foot-5, 225 junior     

9.4 points and 4.4 rebounds per game, shot 46% overall

Backcourters

* Sterling Carter, 6-foot-0, 200, junior G 6-0 200 sophomore

10.1 points but 37% overall shooting, 36% from long distance, just 23 free throws attempts on the season
  
* Jarell Flora, 6-foot-3, 180, sophomore

3.4 points per game, shot 43%

* Prince Obasi, 6-foot-2, 205 senior

4.8 points per game, shots 41% overall, 38% from long distance, 73 assists

* Allen Tate, 6-foot-5, 205, senior

2.8 points and 2.6 rebounds per game, shot 35%

So, there is but one returnee who averaged in double figures but he needs to shoot a better percentage. 

The sole Seattle recruit PTW could locate is D'Vonne Pickett, 5-foot-11, 180, Central Arizona. he scored 11.7 points and passed for 5.5 assists a game this past season. Pickett shot 42% overall, 36% from three-point range and 53% from the foul line. He enjoyed a better statistical year as a freshman but still looks to be the starter for Dollar at the point.
  
Seattle is coming off a 12-15 season, with a positive 9-6 at home. Against WAC teams, Dollar's squad lost twice to Idaho, split with Utah State, lost to SJSU and also dropped one to Fresno State.

It's a bit of mañana for the Redhawks as Emerson Murray, a 6-foot-3 junior transfer from California and Isiah Umipig, a Cal State Fullerton 6-foot-1 transfer will be redshirting this season.

These two signing puts the number of players at 14, one over the limit so it's likely that someone we listed is actually a walk-on or won't be returning.

He does have quite a number of seniors on his roster and Dollar is going to have to count on his previous role players demonstrating improvement. Trent should be a double-double guy each game so it's definitely time for him to step up.

It's dangerous prognosticating period, especially so without having seen a team play but, from the above, it's hard to see an upper division Redhawk finish. That ought to work as solid bulletin board material.
