KANSAS CITY - For the second straight year the Freed-Hardeman Lions found themselves among the NAIA's top 25 preseason teams, coming in at No. 23 in the preseason poll released on Monday, Oct. 25.
The Lions were also picked to finish second in the TranSouth Conference behind defending champion Union (Tenn.) University, as was announced at the annual basketball media day held on Union's campus and broadcast on Jackson's EPlusTV6.
