Coach’s comments: “This group is very coachable, and I like their athletic ability and size. We have two returning players and they were well-coached, especially with what we expect of them this season. We have those two veterans and a group of players who need to learn to work together. Defensively we want to pressure our opponents into taking bad shots. I used a 1-3-1 at Shortridge, which they have used here. I expect us to play a lot of man-to-man. On offense we want to be patient and take good shots. These players know of the basketball legacy here, but we have a long way to go.”
