Project 365 Day 316: Coach Hoiberg's Official Debut

Fred Hoiberg made his first official appearance as Iowa State's head coach of Men's Basketball tonight against Northern Arizona, and Amy's mom joined us at the game while her dad is away on a hunting trip. We got a preview of Hoiberg and his team in last Friday's exhibition match against University of Dubuque, but this was the first game that counts, and I'm happy to say that Fred Hoiberg is still undefeated in his very young coaching career. Amazingly, two Iowa State players scored all of the team's points in the first half, Diante Garrett and Jamie Vanderbeken, many of them on three pointers.

Most people aren't expecting much from this year's team due to the loss of players after the coaching change and having a lot of young players on the team now, but hopefully they'll grow together quickly and give us some exciting basketball to watch for the remainder of the season.
