As the buzz builds around the SEC Media Days taking place later this week in Birmingham, Alabama, we’ve got some noteworthy highlights to share that might put a smile on your face!
First up, let’s talk about the standout player for Ole Miss, Matthew Murrell. The talented Memphis native has been honored yet again, being named to the All-SEC Second Team for the third year in a row! Can you believe it? That’s right, he has now earned this recognition for three consecutive seasons, which speaks volumes about his dedication and skill on the court. Last year, Murrell led the Rebels with an impressive average of 16.2 points per game and a solid 46.4 field goal percentage, proving that he’s not just a player to watch but a genuine force in SEC basketball.
Did you know that he currently ranks 16th all-time at Ole Miss with a total of 1,444 points? Exciting, huh? He’s also made a name for himself beyond the arc, sitting at fifth place in school history with an impressive 218 three-pointers made. So get ready, folks! This season, he will be one of the key players to follow as the Rebels hit the court.
Thinking about how the Rebels will fare this upcoming season? Well, SEC Media has released its preseason predicted order of finish, placing Ole Miss in the ninth spot, just a hair ahead of in-state rival Mississippi State. It’s always interesting to see how these predictions pan out, especially in such a competitive conference. The excitement is palpable as fans anticipate the season and cheer on our Rebels!
In other athletic news, the Ole Miss Women’s Tennis team has been making its presence felt at the ITA Regionals in Auburn, Alabama. In recent matches, the duo of Anaelle Leclercq-Ficher and Ludmila Kareisova showed great potential. Though they faced a tough challenge against Ava Hrastar and DJ Bennett from Auburn, they played hard, putting up a fight. While Ole Miss didn’t clinch the win, it’s clear the team has the tenacity to keep pushing the limits.
As we prepare for the upcoming days filled with basketball chats and tennis matches, we can’t help but feel a rush of excitement. With athletes like Matthew Murrell leading the charge and promising matches on the horizon, Ole Miss Athletics is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with this season. And with the Hotty Toddy spirit in the air, there’s never been a better time to rally behind our teams!
So gear up, folks! Support your teams, don those red and blue colors, and let’s make this season one for the books, filled with unforgettable moments and thrilling plays on the court. Stay tuned for more updates!
