DENVER - The
team is back home and ready to face the Lamar Cardinals tonight after a great
win at South Dakota State last Saturday.
The team is 4-1 and
feeling confident, although the coaches and players know that they have to keep
working hard and improving. Head coach Joe Scott often says that games get more important - and more challenging - as the
team keeps winning.
The coaches wanted to give
everyone a chance to bond off the court, so the team headed to a local bowling
alley on Monday afternoon. It's safe to say that nobody is likely to join the PBA
anytime soon, but everyone had a good time.
Rumor has it that The
Voice, Mitch Hyder, took home the
unofficial title, although Andrew Hooper
was right on his heels. Travis Hallam,
who bowled quite a bit throughout his youth, came ready to go with
his own bowling ball and shoes. Hallam will be the first to admit that
his bowling skills have deteriorated a bit, but it's hard to fault him
since he can't get much
practice in between school and basketball.
Another One Rides the Bus: There are still a limited number of seats available
for a (roundtrip) bus ride from Denver to Fort Collins for the Colorado State
game this Saturday. For just $25, fans can have a seat on the bus, game ticket,
food and beverages during the ride.
Space on the bus is
limited, and reservations must be made by Thurs., Dec. 3 at 5 p.m. To purchase
tickets, please contact Dan Wesolowski at 303-871-3682 or daniel.wesolowski@du.edu.
