Overview
Valdosta State College Basketball 1989-90. Program. Valdosta State University, 1990. Gulf South NCAA, Division II. 4 pages.
Valdosta State, which finished third in the Gulf South Conference last year, is a true case of “You can’t tell the players without a pro- gram’’ this year as only three of last year’s ten players return. Coach James Dominey faces the chore of replacing two All-GSC players in the likes of Lavell Garror and Mike Phillips who graduated, but last year’s Freshman of the Year in the GSC, Butch Shelman, is back to lead a team that finished at 19-9 (10-6 in the GSC).
