I hope everyone enjoys the basketball preview, which was released today as a “B” section in the Hatchet. I’m sure I will get some criticism and I hope people will give me some good feedback on the issue. We tried to cover all the bases but didn’t have unlimited space, so it was tough. The basketball preview is an interesting issue to tackle. Going into a season where the GW basketball team is recieving so much praise, our goal was to connect the readers with the team. Michael Barnett, our editor in chief, told me that we are a medium between the team and the readers and thats our most important job. So if anyone has any story ideas please let me know. If there’s anything you want to know, we’ll try to find it out. We have a very good relationship with both coaches and many of the team members so please get to us with ideas.
