"We are really looking forward to the opportunity to grow and build our team chemistry this summer," said Bob Richey, who is entering his seventh season as Furman's head coach. "With the additional practice time, it will allow us to accelerate the learning of our new players while also getting added reps with our returning players. Also, of even greater importance, it allows us to build this teams connection on and off the court. That will by the number one goal of the summer experience for this team."
Furman's players and staff will stay at Atlantis Paradise Island during the trip. In addition to practices and games, the Paladins will have the opportunity to experience various activities at the host resort and tour The Bahamas.
"We had the opportunity to coordinate Furman's last trip to The Bahamas, and it's been immensely rewarding watching the success of their program," said Lea Miller-Tooley, CEO of Complete Sports Management. "We are proud to have them back in one of the most beautiful places in the world."
