Extreme Hoops Makeover, no it's not a reality television show; it's what's been going on lately in Haehl Pavilion. One look at this year's SRJC Men's Basketball roster, and assuredly the first thing that jumps out at you is the youth on this year's squad. As Head Coach Craig McMillan said, “We have a lot of newcomers, and very few returning players who had big roles last year.”

Sophomore forward Kelly Berry, team captain and one of the teams few returning players, will be a focal point on offense, but McMillan says, “What really makes this team stand out is our hustle on defense.” McMillan plans to use the team's depth and speed, “Were going to push the ball more on offense, and extend our defensive pressure.” McMillan will also use an eight- or nine-man rotation taking full advantage of the team's deep bench.
