Former Kentucky big men Jared Carter and Perry Stevenson will reunite as teammates with the PBL’s Rochester Razorsharks.
Following a brutal training camp, Carter and Stevenson are among the twelve players to survive the cut process and make the team’s final roster.
Here is an excerpt about training camp from GreecePost.com:
[QUOTE]They battled for 19 hours in eight practices over five days. In the third of those days, Coach Rod Baker told the group he might cut them all and start over again next week. The obvious bluff nevertheless won their attention.
By the last day of tryouts, Baker still wasn’t letting up. The 2 1/2 hour morning practice ended with a workout that bordered on torture. Among the more creative activities, 20 pushups with basketballs under each hand. Think that isn’t tough, try it.
Cuts were scheduled to be made after that morning session, but Coach chose to invite all eighteen back for more in the afternoon. An opportunity to go soft in a gesture of appreciation for the effort was lost. It was a tense two hours more. Especially for the six sent packing. Dead men running.
