Super Bowl Update

Covering two sports here. Football, as the Trojans prepare for the last game of the season but get ready for an offseason where they need to put in the hard work and change their attitudes for the better if they want to erase the sting of this season.

Story HERE.

Obviously, it's been a long year, but there is reason for optimism IF the returning players have a good offseason, focus on team, and the new recruits buy in.

Basketball-wise, Trojans back at home Tuesday night against ETSU. I wrote THIS STORY on Will Weathers and R.J. Scott. They knew each other before Troy and both started their careers at Troy. Now, they're two of the top players on the team.

Troy's basketball team is really struggling with injuries. Justin Wright, a forward, is one of the team's better players, but he's got a back injury that he is trying to play through. He is supposed to see a specialist this week. Steven Cunningham has missed the last two games with an injury and still hasn't been cleared to play. That's two of the better rebounders.

But this team has a lot of grit and is looking to avenge a loss to ETSU earlier this year. That game, Troy was without Weathers, who is still battling a sprained ankle. He led Troy's win at Southern Utah basically playing on one foot.
