Click on the photo above for video of David Lighty and Evan Turner … As the Ohio State men’s basketball team readies for the 2009-10 season opener, members reflect on the trip to Canada this past summer and all the team building that ensued. The Buckeyes spent five days in the Canadian wilderness, taking three trips to Windsor, Ontario, for exhibition games vs. University of Windsor and Western Ontario. Though they finished the schedule with a 3-0 record, the lessons learned off the court proved to be far more beneficial.
Those lessons will be put to the test as Ohio State takes the court at 8 p.m. Wednesday in an exhibition game vs. Walsh University at Value City Arena. The season officially opens Nov. 9 vs. Alcorn State in the first game of the 2K Sports Classic benefitting Coaches vs. Cancer. The game tips at 7 p.m. at Value City Arena.
