Men’s Basketball Begins Team Practice

STATESBORO – The energy in the gym was contagious as the Georgia Southern men's basketball team held its first official team practices last week in Hanner Fieldhouse.

"I'm ecstatic and the guys are excited as well," said head coach Brian Burg. "There's a lot of energy in the building. We return nine letterwinners, we have a quality recruiting class and guys have been bought in all summer long."

For most of the summer, the Eagles have been on campus taking classes and participating in offseason workouts, which they could not do last year because of the COVID protocols in place.
