Berkeley at the Barclays

This was it, we had waited six months for this. I am talking about the Berkeley vs St Joseph game at the Barclays center.

St Joseph has been Berkeley Knigh’ts rivals since I can remember and every year since my freshman year have we won against St Joseph. The games have always been close but in some way we figured out a ways to win but unfortunately out of all the games we had to lose this one.
We played terrible and St Joseph played much better. Many issues were going on and coaches had to fix them but when one issue was covered then a new one came.

St Joseph beat us with at least 10 points, something that has not happen before.
Even though we lost, the experience of playing at the Barclays was amazing. Something like that could be a onetime experience for some people and not many can say that they have played in the Barclays and Madison Square Garden.

First Offical Preseason Practice

Yesterday was the first official preseason practice with the team. Many new players have made the team but we still got almost the same players from last season.
The practice was really tough, of course we had to do conditioning throughout the whole practice but I guess that’s what preseason is all about. These few weeks heading into our first scrimmage is going to be hell for some players but it’s important to stay focus and to not give up.
We are looking good as a team this year but let see how we will look like when the season starts.

Practice and Preparation for Saturdays Game!

As I mentioned before, I play basketball for the school team and being a part of the team is like being a part of a family. Our team are really special, because we all stick together no matter what happens. The coaches are like our parents and the teammates are my brothers.

 Yesterday we had practice and our coach went through, how to execute when we are down with points in the late minutes. Most of our losses  during the season has unfortunately been because of that. So we worked really hard  and hopefully we learned how and when to execute.

Big game is coming up on Saturday. Vaughn College against Berkeley College at BMCC. The directions are following, 1,2,3,A,C to Chambers st and walk down two blocks until you pass Mc donalds and you will see Borough of Manhattan Community College. The game will start at 1.00 pm
