BASKETBALL GENERAL NOTES:

Matthew returns to the AIS after an interrupted 2007 with injuries. With a clean bill of health Matthew will provide the team with leadership from the point guard position as well as his ability to score and bring his best effort every day to practice and games. His bulldog mentality on defense will guarantee no opposition guard will have an inch. Matthew will be looking to improve his decision making on penetration, his shooting range and being smart with his defensive pressure.
