All Name Team

By on February 28, 2013
Rick picks the Rocket Sports & Entertainment Network’s 2013 ALL-NAME TEAM for men’s basketball in the Sunshine State Conference
One of my duties as voice of the Saint Leo Lions is preparation on game day.
As I woke up in the early morning of Saturday February 23rd, I commenced my broadcast preparations for the Saint Leo at Rollins game that afternoon.  At this point I had no idea that the thought that was about to come into my head would lead to this.   As I was going through my routine…stats, schedules, bios, box scores and ah, of course the rosters,  I was reviewing  the Rollins Tars roster and it hit me!
TRIP MCFALL, what a cool name!
And then wow,  I thought…paused… then thought again…as a matter of fact the Sunshine State Conference men’s basketball rosters are filled with a plethora of cool names.  As a matter of fact, during the broadcasts I believe I subconsciously ogle for reasons to say these names.
After the wrap for Saint Leo-Rollins prep that morning, I reviewed all nine Sunshine State Conference Men’s Basketball rosters to find the names that resonate from my voice over the airwaves.   Those Saint Leo fans that listen on a regular basis know I find a way to resonate all the names even sometimes stumbling, mispronouncing,  but somehow these First Team, Second Team and Honorable Mentions are tattooed on my brain.
So here we go, the 2013 Rocket Sports & Entertainment Network Sunshine State Conference All-Name Team (Men’s Basketball)…
