Revamped Wake Forest emphasizes physicality in UMES opener

Wake Forest coach Steve Forbes has tried to mold his team with an emphasis on consistent physicality. The Demon Deacons will put their new theme on display in the season opener against visiting Maryland-Eastern Shore on Monday night in Winston-Salem, N.C. During preseason action, which featured a 17-point loss to Georgetown and a nine-point setback at Southern Carolina, Forbes was quick to note areas to address. "We have to do a better job of playing through physicality," Forbes said. Wake Forest had an 18-17 record last year. Sophomore guard Isaac Carr (2.2 ppg, 1.2 apg) is the only returnee who had a significant role. "I think he can be a really high-level defensive player," Forbes said. "He's a really good athlete. He's in elite condition." Carr said the preseason has brought about good connections within the revamped roster. "I think the guys we have on our team, we get along really well," Carr said. "I think that's a big part for us. We also got some good size this year, but I think the biggest thing is just how competitive we are in practice and how together we are." Kansas transfer Jamari McDowell (1.8 ppg, 1.6 rpg) figures to start
