Vines Center Success Fourth-year Head Coach Ritchie McKay has posted a 40-13 all-time record when coaching in the Vines Center. McKay’s Flames went 13-2 at home in 2007-08, before set-ting a program record with a 15-3 mark at the Vines Center in 2008-09. The Flames are off to a 4-2 home start this year.

100 Club The Nov. 11 game between Liberty and Cairn was Ritchie McKay’s 100th game as head coach at Liberty. At 53-47, he posted the second-best record of any Liberty head men’s basketball coach through his first 100 games. Jeff Meyer went 65-35 through 100 games, with his 100th contest being a loss at Tampa, Jan. 5, 1985. McKay is the sixth Liberty men’s basketball head coach to lead the Flames for at least 100 contests, and the first whose 100th game has been played in Lynchburg.

League Honorees After leading the Flames to a top five seed in the 2016 Big South Championship, Lib-erty men’s basketball head coach Ritchie McKay was voted the Big South Coach of the Year by the league’s head coaches and media panel. Along with McKay, guard John Dawson earned all-conference honorable mention. Guard/forward Ryan Kemrite received a spot on the conference’s all-academic team.

Big Improvement Liberty went 10-8 in conference play last year, its first season with double-digit confer-ence wins since going 13-5 in league play in 2010-11. Additionally, the Flames improved by eight games from their 2014-15 conference record of 2-16. That win improvement was the largest from one year to the next in program history.

Longest Win Streaks in Program History Liberty went on a seven-game winning streak from Jan. 19 through Feb. 13, 2016. The streak is tied for the fourth longest overall winning streak in program history. Five out of the seven wins were decided by four points or fewer. The Flames also won seven con-ference games in a row from Jan. 29 through Feb. 18, 2004.

Clutch Performances The Flames showed toughness down the stretch in games last season, going 6-2 in games decided by three or fewer points and 9-4 when the margin was five points or fewer. Liberty’s six wins when decided within three points tied a program single-season re-cord. The Flames also won six games decided by three or fewer points in 1982-83, 1984-85, 1985-86 and 2002-03.

Three Goggles In Liberty’s 86-81 win versus Gardner-Webb (Feb. 27, 2016), the Flames knocked down 17 three-pointers, tying the highest single-game total in program history. McKay’s 2007-08 Liberty squad also holds the record, draining 17 treys versus VMI on March 4, 2008, defeating the Keydets in the 2008 Big South Championship quarterfinals, 103-88. The Flames also knocked down 16 trifectas on Feb. 13, 2016 at Longwood, which is currenty third on the all-time list. McKay-coached teams are represented in seven of the top eight spots on the listing (includes ties). The Flames’ top three seasons for three-point field goals made and attempted have all come under Head Coach Ritchie McKay. The 2007-08 team set the record with 288 made three-pointers, while the following season saw the Flames break that mark by hitting 321 triples. Last year’s squad hit the third-most treys in program history, 283.

Spreading the Wealth The 2015-16 season was just the second time in program history that four Flames hit 40 or more three-pointers in the same season, with the only previous time coming in Ritchie McKay’s first year as Liberty’s head coach, 2007-08. That season, Anthony Smith had a team-high 84 threes, followed by Kyle Ohman (63), Jeremy Anderson (46) and B.J. Jenkins (42). Last year, A.C. Reid led with 60 triples, followed by Ryan Kemrite (57), Lovell Cabbil (52) and John Dawson (42).
