MONTEVALLO, Ala. (WBRC) – For the first time since rejoining the Gulf South Conference (GSC) in 2016, Montevallo men’s basketball has been selected to finish 1st in the GSC preseason poll that was released Wednesday.

Fussell averaged 18.1 PPG, shooting 47.4% from the field while Curry averaged 16.4 PPG, shooting 46.4% from the field.
