off to a great start...

Wake Tech basketball is here and we're rolling full speed ahead with our inaugural season. What an experience this has been. Serving as the Assistant Head Coach at the Junior College level has been a tremendous learning and rewarding experience thus far. I'm not sure how it happens between a coach and players that have never known each other... but I have fallen in love with the guys on this team and the chemistry they have together. There are certainly challenges as with every team, but these guys just seem to respond really well when pushed to the next level.

The season thus far has led to a 4-2 early record. The two losses were both heart-breakers... a 4 point loss to a highly ranked Division 1 team and a 2 point buzzer-beater loss in double overtime (138-136). We won our first conference game last night against Catawba Valley Community College 75-72 after being down by 13 points at halftime. It was a great and spirited comeback.

We will be off for another game against a Division 1 team Brunswick Community College tomorrow evening. Wish us luck!

Go Eagles!
