Summer Summer Time :)/ Digging Into The Crates

Hey guys and girls.. the blog is going to be wrapping up soon. :( Yeah I know you're kind of sad, I am too. I got the opportunity to give everyone an up close and personal look into our team and some of the things we experienced. Our post season is also wrapping up. Still no word on the recruiting search. Hey, it'll work out for the best and this is a big summer for the senoirs on our squad.

As far as the digging in the crates in the post, I found some video of the team from my freshman year. Let's see how posting this is going to work....




Hey!!! I got it to work! Thats our game against Lenoir Rhyne. That game was intense. I think we won that one if I recall. I wish we had some film of our game in the Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte (Bobcats Arena), we got to play on an NBA floor! Thats a great feeling, I had 17 pts in that one. We also won that one. Well I think it's time to wrap it up, YouTube has a couple other clips so watch them. Talk to you next week!

First Workout..

This post-season is still moving slow, but this week brought us some pretty good open gyms. Alot of guys from around the area came to the gym to play, and its helping us in the end. We also had our first individual workouts today. They really werent as bad as I thought they would be. I kinda wished I would have played better in the open gym session though.

Our workouts started with some dynamic stretching, to get our muscles loose. I really like to do those before games and workouts because they speed up the process for my body. Regular streching works but it doesnt make me feel as good as the dynamic stretch.

Individual sessions also helps everyone on the team gain confidence in their game. Alot of basketball teams are at this point in their season. Its actually not that bad. We still havent had any recruits. Yeah, that part is kind of discouraging. As players we have no idea what kind of players are coming in for the fall.

Hopefully the coaches pick some good guys. If not we're going to have a tough season, well... not really. We have a lot of tools coming back next season. At this point I guess I can stop rambling about our post-season, talk to you guys next week.

Easter Break

OK we're out of school for Easter break, and this break is long overdue. At this point our basketball program is still having a slooooooooow post season. Everybody is trying to stay in shape and workout as much as possible. At this point we have had, let's see.... no recruits. The plan is to have a couple guys come play after the break.

Post season individual workouts are picking up next week also. Our individual workouts are so tough, the way it's supposed to be. Coach Moore only expects the best from us and I can say he's a pretty big part of why I've been playing well lately. He's had a Hall of Fame career, so why not learn the ropes of the game from him.

While we're in our individual sessions sweating it out, I'm going to keep my NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS in mind. Yes my favorite team has won the national championship in convincing fashion. I've been a fan of UNC since about my 3rd birthday. Yeah some people are born pulling for the boys in powder blue ha ha.

Hopefully next week I can talk about some of the recruits and our workouts. But for now, I'm going to sit back and enjoy this short break. GO HEELS!

Slow Motion Post Season

I want to start of this post with a scream!! Our preseason is moving sooo slow. I kind of needed the break in the beginning, we've been playing basketball since October. After resting for about two weeks, I'm ready to get it going. We haven't had a lot of recruits coming in to play so hopefully the recruiting picks up also. We're losing all of our post players except one. If we don't get any big guys on the post, we're going to be in huge trouble.

Right now, I can say the biggest thing I have been doing lately is waiting for UNC to play. I'm a huge fan and have been a fan since maybe 2 years old. Yeah, its that serious. I always dreamed of playing there personally but it didn't work of course, I'm here at Catawba.

It just seems as if we're letting precious recruiting time pass. With senior year approaching for the guys that came in the 06' freshmen class, a big season is coming sooner than we would ever believe. Who knows what we can accomplish in our last year, I'm hoping its a lot of fun.

I guess I'll end the post now. Hopefully I can give more positives updates on our post season. And......... GO TAR HEELS!!!
