Opening night
Friday November 9, 2007
The Georgia basketball teams get underway tonight with a mens and womens doubleheader beginning at 6:30.
I’ll have more detailed previews up soon for the individual teams, but there are some similar themes. Both teams are led by a senior standout looking for a different level of success in their final campaigns. Sundiata Gaines is trying to lead his team to the NCAA Tournament, and Tasha Humphrey has one more chance to get her team beyond the Sweet 16. Both teams have perimeter play as a key question entering the season as each lost its top three-point specialist from a year ago.
If you’re in town for the Auburn game, head over to Stegeman and watch these teams start the season off right.
