One sport ends, another one begins. In part because of time issues, our basketball coverage will be a little bit different than our football preseason coverage. We will still have complete team previews for every team in the NESCAC. For more league wide coverage we decided to try something new and make some videos about a variety of topics. Keep checking back all week for lots of material as we stuff all of our coverage into five days.
If you want to skip around in the video, here are the topics that we cover.
0:30: Williams: We have talked at length about the losses Williams endured in the offseason so we go over the guys coming back and where Williams stands right now.
4:26: Amherst: Aaron Toomey ’15, Tom Killian ’15 , and David Kalema ’15 are all gone, while two new Division 1 transfers come in. Amherst is still one of the most talented teams out there.
9:50: Big Men: 2014-2015 could go down as a year dominated by play inside with most of the returning stars from last year being forwards and centers.
11:40: Matt Hart’s Departure: The former Hamilton shooting guard leaves a massive void in Clinton that someone will have to fill quickly.
15:00: Tom Palleschi ’16 Returns: A great story makes Tufts the wildcard of the league this year.
Great start but how can in your discussion of big men leave Zuri Pavlin out. Only freshman and I believe NESCAC player to average a double double, led NESCAC in rebounding, set school record for single season rebounds, and leading D3 freshman rebounder in country! LOL
You are correct that we forgot about Pavlin in our discussion there. That says much more about the depth of big men in the league than anything else.
And worry not, Pavlin will get some love in a little while
Thanks for your response, statically he is the # 1 big man in the NESCAC Spoken like a true FATHER HAHA!
