Thank you
@JUBasketball
for making time and a place for
@CarterHS_BBall
to start practice. It was a great experience for our young men. Best of luck to you this season and we look forward to building on this new found relationship with your programs and university.
It was not the night we were looking for. No doubt the effort was there, the defense was there holding our opponent to under 30 for the half and under 60 for the game. We must learn from tonight and not let a win beat you the next night or a loss beat you 2 nights in a row.
