Basketball
1988-89
by Chantey Copeland
The 1988-89 basketball season
is underway. Coach Caccese is
very confident about this team. He
is pleased with the way the team is
performing thus far. When asked
how this year's team compares
with last years, he stated, 'There
is no comparison. This year's
team has the potential to be as
good as the 1983-84 team, who
finished with a record of 23-6 and
were the Eastern Conference
Champions."
The Lions are faced with the
toughest schedule In the 54 years
of the campus' existence. There
are ten rookies out of twelve
players. "They show a lot of
enthusiasm," comments Coach
Caccese. 'Offense scores the
points, but defense wins the game
There are no stars," confesses
the coach and "there Is a lot of
talent.' He has a good sense
about them.
A winning season is what is
expected of this team. They are
hungry for the ball and play well
together. "I feel they can win: they
are hard workers,' boasts the
coach as he observes his team
Wring practice.
I know the team will do well with
Coach Caccese's influence. His
warm personality and outstarxing
coaching techniques will prove to
be successful. The coach
declines releasing his starting
line-up, but insists each player is
an essential part of the team.
