Tourney Time

As a basketball player, fan, and coach, there is nothing better than tournament time!  The regular season is great, but teams can make or break their season based on what happens in the tournament.  Emmanuel is a great example of that last year in our conference tournament.  They played well in the tournament and made it to the conference tournament finals which earned them an automatic birth into the National Tournament.


Every team that makes it to the tournament starts fresh.  Records are 0-0.  It's win and advance or lose and go home.  Ball till you fall.  

Tonight Will played a good game and scored a career high 24 for us to help us advance pass Emmanuel and into the semi-finals vs. Lee tomorrow at 6.  The other great thing about the tournament is that when you win you don't get much time to celebrate.  There is always another game to prepare for. 

Shout out to our women's team who won by 1 point to also advance to the semi-finals where they will face Southern-Poly at 4 tomorrow.
