Red Raiders Take it to the Hoop!

Lowell High Boys Basketball coach Scott Boyle stopped by the SunTalk Live studios to talk about his team's torrid 11-0 start. Boyle also brought assistant coach Phil Connors along with him, as well as seniors Dave Brown and Fernando Perez. Both players are extremely intelligent and eloquent, and surprised me with their composure in a format where older, more experience athletes have been known to clam up. Having worked in television, I can tell you that Brown in particular is a reporters dream.

Coach Boyle also used the opportunity to break the news about another one of his stars, Matt Welch, making a verbal commitment to play football at the University of New Hampshire (read Barry Scanlon's Lowell Sun Story here). On the video, you can hear Boyle say he believe Welch can also play basketball at the Division One level and may give it a go at UNH at some point in the future.
