EAST STROUDSBURG ? East Stroudsburg University's PSAC champion men's basketball team will make its 2012-13 debut at Koehler Fieldhouse on Sunday night as part of the Warriors' annual "Midnight Madness" beginning at 9:30 p.m.

The night will culminate with the introduction of the men's and women's basketball teams and will feature contests, food and drinks and performances by the Warrior step team, dance team and cheerleaders.

In the slam dunk contest, senior Terrance King ? last year's PSAC Tournament MVP ? looks for his fourth straight title to finish his career against a strong group of challengers. The three-point shootout, which will pair three men's players with three women's players, includes two-time women's champion Andrea Veres, who has 73 career three-pointers through two seasons. On the men's side, redshirt sophomore Will Brown is back after setting the ESU freshman record with 48 3's in 2010-11, which was subsequently broken by current sophomore Whis Grant (54) last year.

Senior Duane Johnson, a returning first team All-PSAC East selection, and King, a second team pick and the PSAC Tournament MVP, lead a group of 10 returning letterwinners from ESU's first PSAC championship team since 1990. Both players enter the year with 951 career points in three seasons.

Johnson (12.4 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 76 assists, 44 steals, 29 blocks) and King (12.8 ppg, 7.0 rpg, 141 career blocks) are joined by Grant (13.9 ppg, 76 assists), sophomore guard Matt Tobin (8.1 ppg, 37 3's), senior forward Gerald Bridges, Jr. (6.6 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 42 3's), senior guard Blair Ramsey, sophomore forward Lamont Tillery and Brown (8.8 ppg as a freshman).

Head coach Jeff Wilson, entering his 11th season, has taken the Warriors to three straight PSAC Final Fours and two of the three NCAA Division II Tournament appearances (2010, 2012) in school history along with assistant coach Justin Potts.

The women's team brings back four starters, including the returning PSAC East Freshman of the Year in sophomore forward Jessica Martin, who averaged 9.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and set ESU and PSAC freshman records with 76 blocked shots. She was named to the All-PSAC East second team.

Junior guard Andrea Veres (8.3 ppg, 50 assists), senior forward Fayola Moise (8.0 ppg, 7.5 rpg), sophomore guard Ryann Fiascki (8.0 ppg, ESU record 87.4 free throw percentage), sophomore forward Kelsey Murray (3.0 ppg, 2.1 rpg), senior guard Barb Borst (3.0 ppg, 98 career 3's) and redshirt sophomore guard Steph Cabald (2.0 ppg, 50 assists) were also letterwinners last season. Senior center Kelly Sorber returns from injury after posting 4.6 points, 6.7 rebounds and 44 blocked shots in 2010-11.

The Warriors are coached by Maureen Smith, who took ESU to an 11-15 record in her second season a year ago. Assistant coach DeAnna Rayam, who scored 1,046 career points from 2006-10, is in her first season on the ESU bench.

College athletics: PSAC realigning in 2013

Sport alignments and scheduling concepts coinciding with Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference expansion were approved by athletics administrators during their meeting Wednesday. The alignments will be implemented for the first time during the 2013-14 academic year when new members University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown and Seton Hill University begin league play.

With the addition of the two schools, the PSAC is projected to form the NCAA's largest conference in terms of membership regardless of competitive division.

"We have always tried to approach alignments based on geography. I think the athletics administrators kept that in mind throughout the decision-making process, and the outcomes certainly reflect this approach," said PSAC Commissioner Steve Murray.

Currently the PSAC has seven team sports which participate in divisional formats and four which compete in non-divisional formats. In 2013 field hockey will feature 11 teams and will join men's and women's soccer, men's tennis and women's lacrosse which play a single round-robin schedule in a non-divisional format.

Softball is the only other sport that will showcase a change from its divisional structure. The league's group of 15 schools currently play in a three-division format. With the addition of Seton Hill, next year PSAC softball will comprise of 16 schools aligned into two eight-team divisions. Seton Hill will be placed in the Western Division along with California (Pa.), Clarion, Edinboro, Gannon, Indiana (Pa.,), Mercyhurst and Slippery Rock. Bloomsburg, East Stroudsburg, Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg and West Chester will make up the Eastern Division.
