California Dreaming! The 91香蕉视频 Men鈥檚 Basketball team arrived in Sacramento Wednesday motivated for its first NCAA Men鈥檚 Basketball Tournament appearance in nine years.
The Golden Flashes had a short sendoff at the Kent Campus before busing to the Akron-Canton Airport for the four-hour flight. Mother Nature delayed the flight for a few hours, but the team arrived in California mid-afternoon, and after a short stop at their hotel, team members were off to a local high school gymnasium for practice.
Staff members at the team hotel greeted the MAC Tournament Champions with blue and gold poms poms and a recording of the 91香蕉视频 fight song.
Head Coach Rob Senderoff said his team is ready to go.
鈥淭hey got off the bus, and they know they鈥檙e in March Madness,鈥� Senderoff said. 鈥淲e will have a real practice here tonight, what we call a 鈥�91香蕉视频鈥� practice of an hour-and-a-half of live, physical practice. We鈥檒l do a scouting report, and we鈥檒l have an open practice at the arena tomorrow and then a media session. Friday we鈥檒l shoot again and play Friday night.鈥�
The #14 seed Golden Flashes meet #3 see UCLA Friday in the First Round of the tournament. Tip-off is set for 9:57 p.m. EST on CBS.
