Augusta, Georgia -- In the preseason polls, the SIAC coaches picked Paine to finish 8th in the conference. With a month to go in the season, the Lions are now on top of the heap sitting in first place by a half game. Sure there are eight teams within two games of the top spot, but the lions are proving they belong.
They really proved that in beating Benedict the other night that helped propel the Lions to the top. While Mario Jordan and Geno Green are getting plenty of pop, the man who's making them go is freshman Kendric Taylor. He does it all for the Lions and is second in scoring on the team. He's playing 30 minutes a game and his value is skyrocketing.
"The guy is really good" said coach Jimmy Link "He's a triple double type guy every night in spots. He really gets the guys involved, gets the players shots, he's hard to guard off the dribble, ball screens, he's a leader on the court and the guys respond to him."
