Gardenstatehoops thanks Gee for taking the time to talk to us!

 

 

How we are preparing for not only Friday, but the whole season is to start off strong. For a long time Kennedy has been a guard oriented team which made us trap and use our quickness to our advantage, But now we have a couple of players that have size, which is different for us. So we were  getting used to having big men on the floor and fitting them into our system. Defense was our #1 priority at practice because without that everything else means nothing. We have a lot of pieces that fits this team and knowing that everybody will do their part makes it even better and tougher to beat us. The bigs have made it much easier for us to play knowing we have them to rebound and defend in the paint. The coaches have mainly been on our backs about being a team and playing as a team. This year will be a test for us. We have a lot to prove and much work to put in. All the long nights and intense practices will pay off and we will be the team to beat!!
