Xavier Bell, Wichita native, said that he hopes to bring his winning attitude to the team so that they can “get the job done” and get back to the NCAA tournament.
His first experience of playing on a basketball team happened at the age of three, playing a grade up for his dad’s team at the YMCA.
He said he owes the team’s chemistry this year to spending the whole summer together, on and off the court. Bell highlighted going to a boxing event as an important bonding experience.
“I think we have a lot of new faces and a really new team, but, I think with the guys on this team we could go really far and make a lot of things happen,” Bell said.
