Staff reporter Alexis Broderick sat down with junior guard Jonathan Vitale to discuss the team’s goals for the rest of the season.

Alexis Broderick: How’s the season going so far?

Jonathan Vitale:  So far the season has been going very well. I think we have grown a lot from last year as a team and with the coaching staff in their second year, they’re able to really grasp what we are all about.

AB: How do you expect the season to finish?

JV: I expect the season to finish on a high note. Speaking for Law Basketball, I can say that all of us expect to make it into far rounds of SCC and states, which has always been our goal from the beginning of the season.

AB: What goals does your team have for the rest of the season?  

JV: Our team’s goals for the rest of the season consists of competing and being a recognizable name in SCCs and states. Ultimately, our goals will always be to make the championship games. We strive for the highest stage.

AB: How is the team going to prepare for states?

JV:  Our team will prepare for states by doing what we have been doing all season. I’m sure the coaches have something in store for us up their sleeves, but as long as we always give max effort, that’s all they can expect from us.

AB: Why do you think the team has been so successful this season?

JV: I believe that the team is so successful this season because it’s a lot more of a family atmosphere. We’re boys. This team is my second family and I’m sure the guys will agree with me on this. We live by UBUNTU which means “I am because we are.”
