Senior Year 2016-17
The only 4-year player on the team, Justin Ball, looks to culminate a successful career with a strong senior campaign. Justin is known for his work in the paint but flashed a number of other talents all over the court last year. A skilled big who can hurt you from all over Justin has also emerged as a leader of the team and will shoulder a heavy workload this season in all facets of the game. Justin has worked hard and the fruits of his labor will be a treat to watch all season long. 

Junior Year 2015-16
After a sophomore season filled with growth, Justin returns as an upperclassman ready to help lead the Panthers. Justin earned 2nd Team All SLIAC last year and was a force in the middle. This year Justin is looking to improve upon last year by being a more consistent force on the block and on the boards. He is looking forward to putting his stamp on the program by dominating the way we know he can. Look for Justin to patrol the paint and be the best post player in the SLIAC this year.

Sophomore Year 2014-15
Justin was our #1 recruit going into last season and proved why, averaging 10.6 points per game and 9.4 rebounds per game. Standing at 6’ 8” Justin is a force to be reckoned with down low and we are looking for him to be averaging a double double this season. With a year of college basketball under his belt Justin is playing with more confidence, which can only mean trouble for the other teams in the SLIAC.

Freshman Year 2013-14
Justin is a newcomer from St. Louis, Mo. Justin played his high school ball at Principia High School and lettered all 4 years. He is a welcome addition to this years team and brings height and experience to the post position for the panthers. Besides his strong post up game Justin will bring a defensive presence in the middle that will deter opponents penetration into the lane.
