Season Summary

edit

It was a competitive season of Horizon League basketball.[1] In the nine team league, only three teams would finish with a winning record, and only Milwaukee separated from the pack. Wright State finished in a three-way tie for fourth at 8-8. A season of lifting wins and sinking losses. 2004-05 had the excitement of watching Zach Williams play for the Raiders, as well as watching DaShaun Wood, Drew Burleson and Zakee Boyd continue their development. Freshmen Spencer and Pleiman were relied on heavily and rose to the occasion. In the end a season of development, but the Raiders lacked the experience and depth to compete for the league title.[2]

The tournament provided a bright memory to finish the year with the Wright State Raiders beating their nemesis, the Butler Bulldogs, at the Nutter Center in the opening round.[3]
