We have concluded the first week of classes and the guys are adjusting to having a regular routine to follow each day. This past weekend the Buff Basketball team, along with other programs on campus, helped with the 2010 Buffalo Club Golf Classic. We would like to give a special thanks to everyone that helped sponsor our hole at the Classic. It was a great chance for our program to get to meet and catch up with many familiar faces that are involved with our program.
This week also started our first week of weights and conditioning. Our weights and conditioning workouts are administered by Coach Taylor Strube. Coach Strube is the assistant strength and conditioning coach at WT, and is a great addition to our program and athletic department. He is doing a great job with these young men, and I am excited to watch them improve over the next several weeks.
This next week marks the first week in which we will begin to conduct our individual workouts. We will concentrate on refining and improving individual skills, and also begin teaching our basketball philosophy. Our staff works especially hard to teach what we will be doing offensively and defensively in the upcoming year to make the transition to full practice on October 15th a lot easier.
I have been very pleased with the excitement and energy that this team has showed up to this point. Our goal is to continue to improve each day. The team that does that usually plays the longest.
