Tied for first

I think the coaches picked us about where we should be. We will be pretty good. It remains to be seen if we are very good. (Well, we won't be "pretty" in any case. We play ugly basketball, but it works.) The fact that we were picked that high and only one 3rd team individual picked is a testimony to the team play insisted upon by Coach Shields. He gets a lot out of what he has. But I do think that the talent/experience combination on this team will take a significant step upwards this year. I keep going back to how many first-year D1 players we had, plus two more that had laid out a year.
