Erica Covile looks at the time, sees it is four in the morning, and decides it is about time to go to bed.
While it might seem like a late night for most people, it feels normal for Covile. She hasn’t quite adjusted to the seven-hour time difference between Romania and Philadelphia.
“I have been here for seven months and I still go to sleep every day at 4 a.m.,” she said.
The former Temple guard is in her rookie season playing professionally for Phoenix Galati, a professional basketball team based out of Romania.
Out of the 15 players on the roster, six are from the United States, eight are from Romania and one is from Australia.
