Baye Blog: Starting With A Win
3/21/2014 10:04:00 AM | Men's Basketball
Thursday we had a wake up call around 9:45 and the team meeting started at 10:15 a.m. We went through Western Michigan offense and defense and what we had to do offensively and defensively. After the meeting we had breakfast and started to get ready for the game. After breakfast, we head back to our rooms and get ready for the game. I took a shower to refresh myself. Brad Pike, our trainer, started to tape each of us around 11:15 and Dan Shworles, our equipment manager, brought our uniforms.
We left for the First Niagara Arena right at 1 p.m. When we got there we had to wait for the Dayton vs. Ohio State game to be over. We listen to music and do our pre-game routines. My pre-game playlist is a list I call I Am A Champion which is a selection of motivational YouTube videos. We started to warm-up with Ryan Cabiles, our strength and conditioning coach, with around eight minutes left to the Dayton vs. Ohio State game. After the warm-up, we went back to the locker room and got ready to go out for the game.
In the timeleading up to the game and then during it I was thinking that this game can be my last game in a Syracuse uniform. But I knew that my teammates would not let me and C.J. (Fair) down. After the game, the energy was great inside the locker room. It was great to get the win and get back on track. We have worked all throughout the year. We know that any game can be our last one is motivating us and pushing us to play the hardest we can.
