News

News of the hour, GU will be playing in next years Old Spice Classic featuring many excellent teams(Georgetown, Maryland, Michigan St., Wichita St., Oklahoma St., Tennessee, and Siena). The tournament will air on ESPN from Nov. 27-30.

News on the NBA Draft front: Josh Heytvelt has a Fractured Ankle and will not be running full strength until July/August 2008. This means that he wont be able to workout for NBA scouts and Likely means that he will return for his Final Season at Gonzaga. I hope this injury will not affect his ability to run next year, his athleticism and fierceness have been sorely missed in the lineup. In other news, Josh will be Graduating from GU on May 10th Congrats Josh!

In Recruiting News, Brock Osweiler finally confirmed he is indeed going to pursue a football/basketball career at Arizona State...The 2009 Class appears to be Guard heavy with Marshall Henderson, Jeff Reid, and Anthony Marshall the top three being looked at...All is not lost for a 2008 Swingman at GU, They are seriously in the running for Bol Kong of Douglas College in Canada as well as Luka Basta of Serbia with Nevada as the only other school interested in the 6-8 swingman, here is a video of Basta.
