COACH’S OUTLOOK: “We should be much improved from last season. We have

some returning players who got a lot of playing time last season. We

should be fairly quick - with a much-improved defense. Our shooting has

also improved over the summer. We don’t have much height, so this team

will have to scrap and bang on the boards. Our players are really working

hard in practice, have a winning attitude, and our a pleasant group of

young men to be around.”
