Jimmy Link Era Officially Begins as Clayton State Heads to Lane for Season Opener

MORROW, Ga. – With a new coaching staff, six new players and eight returnees from a year ago, Clayton State (0-0, 0-0 PBC) travels to Lane College (0-2, 0-0 SIAC) on Wednesday, November 18 for the 2015-16 season opener.
 
Lane enters the game having seen action twice already, getting blown out by West Georgia 119-71 on November 14 and losing 79-63 to Lee a day later at the West Georgia Classic. For the Lakers, they come off of a strong performance at Division I Ole Miss in an exhibition on November 5. In that one they fell just 103-87 to a team that qualified for the 2015 NCAA Tournament.
 
Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at JF Lane Gymnasium in Jackson, Tenn. There will not be live stats available but fans can follow the game through live video. This game is the first of a home-and-home series this season, with the Dragons making the return trip to The Loch on December 15.
