KANSAS CITY, Mo. –The Augusta University men's basketball team is ranked No. 14 in the latest National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Division II Poll released on Tuesday afternoon.
"It is go time for the Jaguars if we want to make another run at a Peach Belt Regular season title", said head coach

Miguel Arnold has also been a constant force on offense, turning in 17.3 points per game. Senior
Tyree Myers tops the conference in assists, dishing 4.7 per game.
