Coming Together

October 28, 2009 — What’s up everyone?!  The season is coming fast.  Everything is starting to pick up. Last week we scrimmaged Bluefield College and won by 22.  The team played well, everyone played hard and had fun.  I love our chemistry and how we interact with each other.

We scrimmaged Hargrave Military last week too.  It was the third time I’ve played against them.  I have a great respect for their team.  I’ve never beaten them.  They have great players and coaching.  As a team they play so hard.  They are all over us and play so physical.  It is the best team we will play all year by far!!!!  We ended up in a tie.  We won the first 20 min half and they won the second.  We competed and played hard.  I thought we all played well.

Everyone stepped up, made big plays and big shots.  Juwan started us off by making tough shot after tough shot.  Then Doron and Roscoe picked us up through the rest of the half.  Baye and Martins played real big in the paint.  Keith came in and made some clutch threes.  The 2nd half was more of the same.  Juwan ran the team. R oscoe and Doron were still getting buckets.  They can both really score.  Marco came in and made plays all over the court, and Devon played smart.  Offensively we were fine.  We just have to pick up the D.  I’m not too worried though because Hargrave doesn’t play like the other schools we play, so we should be good.  This team can do great things.

Our first game is on Halloween this weekend.  Until then…
