- Yesterday afternoon, the Tombs defeated the Madness All-Stars in the Kenner League Championship with a final score of 81-65. Incoming freshman Jason Clark and Henry Sims were on the team along with returning sophomores Chris Wright and Nikita Mescheriakov. Greg Monroe was on the team earlier in the summer, but he had to return home after his summer classes finished. Over the course of the summer, Roy Hibbert also had a few appearances playing with the Tombs.
- Over at guhoyas.com, you can find the new Hoya roster with the players’ heights, weights, and numbers. Of note is that Nikita has switched from #10 to Rivers’ old number, #5, and Greg Monroe has taken 10. Also, transfer Julian Vaughn will be wearing Tyler Crawford’s old jersey, #22.
- With the Summer Olympics commencing this past weekend, there have been plenty of stories about past olympians. NBCOlympics.com profiled Patrick Ewing last week on his birthday, and GUHoyas.com ran a piece on Alonzo on Friday

This game was a Kenner League classic, there’s no doubt about that…those young Hoyas were relentless on defense and very aggressive and were smart enough to know how change the outcome of the game very early…
