Summer Trip

[shock]

What's this summer trip I keep hearing about? Is it kind of like the trip the 06-07 team went on when they played in Canada?

And if I recall, at that time, it was partly to blame for that team's downfall due to fatigue.

Yes its like the Canada trip. They don't know where they are going yet.

Except it will be in Europe (I think), and incoming recruits will be allowed to play, unlike last time.

I'm sorry, but I don't buy that argument at all. Two weeks of practice and five basketball games in early August has nothing to do with a player's physical and mental state in February and March. (Kentucky went this season and seemed to survive it OK.)

I think this trip will be a huge positive for WSU in getting our new post players acclimated to the system so they can hit the ground running when practice starts in October.

I just hope its one of the Canada tournaments (Vancouver, Calgary or Quebec) so I can make the trip.

Canada in the summer sounds like heaven.

They played last time in Canada...I witnessed the Gal Mekel era begin.

Gal is doing quite well in Israel. I think the last time I looked, he was averaging about 12-15 points a game and had an A/TO ratio of almost 2-1.


If you factor out the sprint-to-the-baseline-and-jump-in-the-air-while-flying-out-of-bounds-hoping-to-make-a-play move, then that ratio skyrockets to 47-1.

My two greatest disappointments as a Shocker fan were Gal M. and Kenny M.

And maybe Rick Conn. :roll:
