Reading 70 Dieruff 46

A great opening night win for the Red Knights in front of an excellent crowd at the Geigle. Here are my thoughts on tonight's game:
  1. Great to see Jordan Burdine back wearing the Red Knight colors, it was as he had not left. You can see that he is probably even becoming our number 1 scoring option which i didnt expect. He now needs three more points to reach 1000 for his career which he should get tommorrow night against Conestoga Valley.
  2. Jermain Jackson had a consistant and solid night tonight. While he didnt have a lot of points you can see the maturity in his game coming through.
  3. It was clear to see tonight that Cook is a beast on the boards and when he is in the lineup this team is a lot better. The key for him will be keeping him out of foul trouble and not having him pick up silly fouls.
  4. Give credit to Coach Reyes he really had the team fired up at the start of the game and they let Dieruff know that the game was over in the first quarter.
  5. My last point is to give big props to acting Athletic Director Pat Slator for having new lights installed in the gym and replacing the ceiling tiles. By the way, when is the administration going to give this guy the full time gig. He has the student athletes interest on the top of his agenda and it was nice to see the game run smoothly from a fan standpoint and Mr. Slator deserves big props for this.

The below video is a collection of the picutures I took at the game.

Tom - this this a great blog. Glad to hear Slater upgraded the facilities. The previous AD would have waited until an old ceiling tile fell and killed one of the players.

Keep this thing updated, i love it!!!!
