NEW HOME
- The Trailblazers will play their remaining home games for 2025-26 at Trinity Leadership Public School. Fans will also be able to purchase tickets in advance or at the door to see the Trailblazers in action.
 
LAST TIME OUT
-The Trailblazers are 1-3 on the season and are looking to find a spark offensively, having dropped the past two games at Huston-Tillotson and Paul Quinn.
- UNTD was led offensively at Paul Quinn by Demaryon Thornton (Chicago, Ill.) with 15 points and Keylyn Sanders (Paris, Texas) with 12 points. Both were season-highs in the young campaign.
- Greg Crawford (Houston, Texas) surpassed 400 career points across 32 games and is leading the team with 19.8 points-per-game.
 
RECORD BOOKS
- Previous two games have seen the Trailblazers etching new milestones in the record books. Crawford set the new rebounding record in a single-game with 20 at Huston-Tillotson.
- A quartet of players: Sedric Curry Jr. (Baton Rouge, La.), JT Curry (Baton Rouge, La.), DaRyan Williams (Austin, Texas), and Crawford combined for eight blocks to tie the single-game record as a team.
 
 
PLAYERS TO WATCH
- Greg Crawford (Houston, Texas) has picked up where he left off leading the team with 79 points in four games. Crawford entered the week 15th nationally and second in RRAC in scoring. He snapped a consecutive streak of double-digit scoring though on Monday, which had been 31 games dating to last year.
- Williams has posted his best performance in UNTD's home game this season versus Wiley. He notched 18 points and nine boards.
- Curry scored 11 of his 12 points in the second half against Wiley, which was crucial in the lone victory.
- Another returner from last season is Demaryon Thornton (Chicago, Ill.), who will spend his fourth year on the squad. The elder statesman with his debut on UNTD during 2021-22, Thornton played 14 games the second half of last year and made 21 three-pointers and tallied 98 points and 39 rebounds. Thornton ended the season making at least three trifectas in the last four contests.
- Dreyon Thornton (Chicago, Ill.) will make it a family affair this season, as he joins his brother on the team for the first time. Sedric Curry Jr. (Baton Rouge, La.) gives UNTD a pair of brothers on the same squad.
