Tony Chukwuemeke

Chukwuemeke played for the Missouri Western Men's Basketball team from 2018-22, which saw the team's first winning season in nine years and first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2010. 

Martin praised Chukwuemeke's leadership during his four years on the team, where he served as team captain for one year. He set a high standard that helped the team achieve its first NCAA Tournament appearance in over a decade. Martin is confident that Chukwuemeke's impact on the program will continue to grow as he transitions into his role as a graduate assistant. Chukwuemeke, who is from Lagos, Nigeria, and transferred to MWSU from Iowa Western, has been a part of the team for five years.

He believes that the team's commitment to the FLOW philosophy sets them apart and makes them special.

 During the 2022-23 season, the Missouri Western Men's Basketball team made it to the conference tournament and had multiple players chosen for all-conference honors.Â
