![]() By Ronald Tillman Swish! The final buzzer and the Hubbard Greyhound basketball season has come to an end. The beginning of the season was filled with new changes, one of the biggest changes was the new head coach, Rashaun Johnson, as well as the Greyhounds playing in the CPS Blue Division with a more talented competition. The Greyhounds placed themselves in multiple tournaments such as the annual Oak Lawn Thanksgiving tournament in which they finished with a record of 2-3 and the annual Marist Christmas tournament finishing with a record of 1-2. The Greyhounds made a strong effort to play a solid season with a new coach and a new system that was created by Coach Johnson. The team finished with an overall record of 11-13; just a little under last years conference championship team, who finished the season with a record of 14-14. With the school's strong coaching and great support, next year's team will be the team to watch. Coach Johnson's favorite quote for his young “ballers” is “books before balls.” He moti vates his players to stay focused on the important things in life like pursuing an education and staying out of trouble. Coach Johnson makes sure that before the season begins that he keeps his players in shape by holding open training drill sessions to current Hubbard students and incoming freshmen. It's a great strategy to have his future team tied together and ready to compete when the season begins. Coach Johnson plans to have a dominant legacy with the mighty Greyhounds!
