Noted. Thank you.

That website is pretty snazzy, wow ... he has a bright future in web design / promotion, if nothing else. He may be the early front-runner for the first member of the NESCAC class of 2015 to make the all-crazy squad. Although there is also a contender from Tufts' incoming group if I recall.

With Harlan Dodson graduating, someone on the Ephs has to step up this year, it's a pretty non-crazy bunch overall.

Highlight videos are a joke and this one is pretty bad. Looks like he is playing versus Hughey, Dewey and Louie. Proof will be in the pudding when he plays kids more than 4' tall in the NESCAC

Oh my, does Trent refer to himself in the 3rd person? With all of this he better be able to play. Time will tell, not a cool website.

Saw a couple of highlight videos. Summer league play doesn't always bring out the best defensive skills. Mr. Trent does have an interesting skill set on offense.....dribbles with the left hand and shoots with the right....with the right hand lower than his left hand when he releases. Question in my mind is can he play defense.

Congrats to Stockwell and Hamilton. The NESCAC is getting the reigning SUNYAC Coach of the Year! Trust me when I tell you he will make Hamilton a top tier team in the NESCAC...THIS YEAR!!

Can't say that we, in the SUNYAC, are sad to see him leave. He made Oswego 1 tough place to win at! He'll do the same for Hamilton!

Please define "top tier." Does that mean he will have a 1st round home game in the NESCAC tournament (top 4 seeds)?

Guy probably is good coach but gotta have the talent too. I saw Hamilton went 16-9 in a MUCH weaker conference than NESCAC. I doubt Hamilton will be a "TOP TIER" team this year and maybe for a bit. Amherst, Middlebury,and Williams will be very strong with Trinity and few others improving a great deal. Don't know what Hamilton has coming for recruits but I predict bottom third of league.

Congratulations to Coach Mike Rejniak on earning the SUNY New Paltz Head Coach position.

Carter Trent: The Absolute Athlete

201 push ups!

Carter definitely gets my vote for pre-season All-Crazy Rookie of the Year. I hope he lives up to the hype.

It is interesting that Amherst's MBB young ass't coaches have both left recently. The other ass't who played at Trinity left for a position at a nearby prep school. Will be interesting to see who arrives to help out. There has been a number of new assistants arriving on campus.....in football, women soccer and hopefully in WBB. Yes, the women's team also needs a new ass't coach.

Kevin Hopkins who played an important role in Amherst National Championship and played in Europe is now also an Assistant Coach at Amherst. Probably one of the tallest assistant coaches in D3 ball. Amherst Coaching staff is deep already with Coaches Buelow and Halas already there to assist Coach Hixon.
