The 2024-25 Lane Titans Men's Basketball team took part in the Rocky Mountain JUCO Jamboree in Windsor, Colorado this past weekend, marking their second consecutive appearance at the event.

Fresh off of a NWAC postseason appearance, the Titans were eager to build on their positive momentum. They secured two victories against NJCAA D1 opponents, Western Wyoming and Northeastern College. Redshirt freshman Ben Thornbrue, standing at 6'8", dominated throughout the weekend. Sophomore Silas Wright, at 6'9", also showcased his growth after an impressive freshman year. Additionally, sophomore transfer Marcus McKinney from Portland, OR, proved he can be a key contributor for the Titans.

With six returning players and ten newcomers from the latest recruiting class, the team is poised for growth. This mix of experience and fresh talent is sure to energize the program as they move forward.
