Mormon News Resumes Sports Stats

NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- With the start of the new year, Mormon News will again attempt to provide weekly sports stats on Mormon players. This past week represents a lull in sports, as the NFL playoffs have started and NBA games continue, but other major sports are off.

In basketball, veteran player Shawn Bradley continues to play well for the Dallas Mavericks, but the other Mormon players in the NBA, Travis Knight and Mark Madsen, are struggling to get playing time. Meanwhile, in football, only two players are on teams that have made the playoffs, Chad Lewis (Philadelphia Eagles) and Byron Frisch (Tennessee Titans).
