RIGHT NOW I LIKE …
I really like the overall experience we have with this group. We have shown a high maturity level and had a great approach to this preseason
RIGHT NOW WE NEED TO IMPROVE …
It’s early so we need to improve on everything but for us to compete for a league championship we have to guard the ball better this year, be a better gang rebounding team and be more efficient on the offensive end. I believe if we can do those things we can compete at a championship level.
LEAGUE FAVORITE
Marietta and Baldwin Wallace
ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT TEAM …
I have very high expectations for this group. I like our depth, our ability to space the floor with shooters and experience level a ton. I think we are going to be right in the mix to compete for an OAC championship all year long.
