"With our seasoned sophomores from last season's outstanding team (Mike Weimer 6-5 G/F, Kevin Pusateri 6-3 G/F, Terance Pellum 6-6 C, Kevin Denardi 6-2 G), I look forward to outstanding leadership and championship habits molding our team toward it's potential. I'm very excited for and proud of our sophomores who have worked extremely hard to prepare themselves, both as student-athletes and well-adjusted young adults, for transfer to a four-year institution - our most important legacy."
I am equally thrilled for the redshirt/greyshirt group who worked so hard this past year to prepare for action this season. We add Ben Boyd (FR 6-2 G), Matt Christman (FR 6-3 G), Kristan Ho (SO 6-5 G), Benny Evian (FR 5-10 G), Austin McQuay (FR 6-4 G/F), Josue Gil (SO 6-6 F) and Kent Eubanks (SO 6-6 F) who all redhirted/greyshirted last season - I expect positive contributions from all these guys on and off the floor - they are very capable."
"Foothill Men's Basketball is about developing lasting student-success, athletic potential, strong personal/communal values, and high self/team esteem. We aspire to create positive future opportunities in a fun and challenging environment - where our athletes are guided and encouraged to master the fundamentals of life and basketball. I look forward to giving every committed player the opportunity to grow and thrive in our program."
