Coastal Carolina Chanticleers: NCAA Tournament Profile
- Updated: March 14, 2014
Coastal Carolina Chanticleers (21-12, 11-5 Big South)- To stop the Big South champion Chanticleers (coolest nickname in college hoops?), you’ve got to key on their three-headed monster of a backcourt in guards Elijah Wilson (16.1 ppg) , Warren Gillis (14.8 ppg) and Josh Cameron (14.1 ppg). That trio accounts for over 60 percent of Coastal Carolina’s offense.
Though only a freshman, Wilson has provided a tremendous scoring lift for the Chanticleers. He doesn’t create much for others though, averaging only 0.9 assists per game.
The Chanticleers try to force teams to take three-pointers, and give up 33.6% of opponents’ points from beyond the arc. They are one of the youngest teams in the tournament, with only two seniors.
KEY STATS:
Rebounds 11th (39.6)
Points per Game 125th (72.7)
Assists per Game 327th (10.6)
