The varsity coach wants to have practice on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. J.V. has not announced when they will practice because they don’t have a coach just yet. Coach Ligons was having meetings with people this week, trying to look for a J.V. coach. The basketball season starts on Jan. 25. Since the gym is still under construction, the team is practicing outside. The gym is getting a fresh coat of paint, new floors, new scoreboards, and other things that will better the experience of toro athletes.
Some players are concerned that the season starts next week and they only had one practice last week. They blame the timing for redoing the gym. They say that the gym renovation should have started before winter break and ended sooner, but the only thing that they have done so far is paint the gym.
