This is a quick hit out of Cleveland State’s playbook.  It is part of their Horns Series.  Not all of their Horns Series is run out of a box set, but this one is.

Gary Waters has done a remarkable job at Cleveland State.  After five years, three post season appearances, and back-to-back 20 win seasons from a program that in the previous 13 had only three winning seasons, it is safe to say he and his staff have turned that program around and then some.  It certainly helps when you can recruit and develop players like the Miami Heat’s, Norris Cole!

While at Wichita State, we had the challenge of playing CSU twice in Bracket Buster.  We were fortunate to win both, but it was not without  some serious preparation and good luck!
