As the fall sports season comes to an end, winter sports athletes lace up their shoes. The Alhambra boys’ basketball team is putting in their greatest amount of effort every day at practice, training with their sincere determination to prepare for their first season game on Nov. 28 against Blair High School. Currently the team is reviewing plays and conditioning so they are as ready as possible when season comes along.

“Our goal this year is to win league,” senior Matthew To said. “We plan to achieve this goal as a program by consistently working hard during practice in correlation with believing in the system and playing hard defense in order to make CIF and obtain the league title that we want by the end of the season.”

Last season under Coach Bryan Gonzalez, they had a 16-11 record for the overall season, and a 7-3 league record. Working together as a team, they plan on achieving their goal by maximizing their efforts and commitment in practices and games. They hope to utilize the skills that they have gained since freshmen year in order to meet these goals.

“As a senior, I feel that I have progressed a lot in basketball since freshman year,” senior Jason Trang said. “We have a full roster and every one of us has potential.”

The team will next play on Dec. 12 at home against Rosemead High.
