Rams 'excited' for start of conference season

ALBANY, Georgia  — The Albany State men’s basketball team returns to campus today after a two-week holiday break.

And Rams coach Chris Cameron is hoping his team comes back with the same focus and determination it left with 14 days ago.
 
The Rams wrapped up first-semester practices a couple of weeks ago before Cameron sent his players home for the holidays, and the eight-year coach believes his players were peaking just as they left campus for the break.
 
“We had three or four practices after final exams, and those practices were good,” said Cameron, whose Rams lost their final game before break to St. Leo, 96-62, on Dec. 7. “I saw focus and concentration in the guys during those practices, and we are hoping they come back the same way.”
 
ASU (3-5) resumes practice today and will begin the second half of the season Thursday at home in its SIAC opener against Kentucky State. The Thorobreds (1-4) are on a four-game losing streak but have won six of their last seven games against ASU dating back to 2010.
