Among the 10 returning letter winners and four returning starters are 6-8, 240-pound junior forward Caleb Green (Tulsa, Okla.). A 2005 Associated Press Honorable Mention All-American, Green was also the Mid-Con Player of the Year after averaging 19.4 points and 9.3 rebounds per game.

Jerry Finkbeiner's women's squad also put together an outstanding 2004-05 season. The Golden Eagles posted a 22-9 record, won the Mid-Con Tournament title and made their third NCAA Tournament appearance in the last seven seasons.

Nine letter winners and four starters are back for 2005-06, including 6-1 junior forward Elisha Turek (Council Bluffs, Iowa), who earned Mid-Con Tournament MVP honors and was a first-team all-conference selection for the second straight season. Turek led the Mid-Con in both scoring (18.3) and rebound (9.6) last season.
