With official practice beginning on October 15 this time of year is a busy one for all collegiate basketball players. Personally, I have two tests this week and a quiz but it is definitely nice to have basketball practice, which serves as a great study break. It is a NCAA rule that student athletes are provided with at least one day off a week. This week our off day was Tuesday and I used it to my benefit to get a lot of studying in! The day of the week that is our off day usually varies but when we get into conference play, we have games on Wednesday and Saturday nights and Sunday becomes our day off. This weekend we have an exciting event going on within our Coe basketball family. After an open practice Saturday morning some of our alumni will be returning to play and then at night there will be a steak dinner, which serves as our fundraising event for the year. Parents, friends, family, alumni, and Coe supporters will be coming out on Saturday to enjoy the event, have fun, and to support Kohawk basketball. Every year we usually do one fundraising activity to provide funds to basketball to cut down on traveling expenses and meal costs (when we are on the road for games Coe covers most of our meals). Overall it is an exciting time as we continue to get ready for our first scrimmage next Wednesday against Kirkwood….I can’t wait!
