With back-to-back seasons below .500, the Swede men's basketball team is ready to start clawing its way back. Coach Oleen hopes strong leadership will be vital in the Swede's success.

"We have stronger leadership than we have had the past two years. There will be some big suprises among them," Oleen said.

Despite Oleen's confidence, the Swedes were picked to finish ninth and eighth in the preseason coaches and media polls, respectively, at Tuesday's annual KCAC Media Day held at Friends University in Wichita, Kan.
