Two notable men\u2019s social clubs went head-to-head in an intense game of basketball on Feb. 13 at 6 p.m. to decide who would lead the basketball season this past week. Men\u2019s social clubs Gamma Sigma Phi (GSP) and TNT battled hard for a 54 – 46 game favoring GSP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\tGSP had a strong year in club sports. Their softball and volleyball A teams took first place and second place in football. TNT, a close match, took first in A team football, then second in softball and volleyball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\tBoth teams were looking for nothing but success this upcoming basketball season, and this match was important to watch in evaluating their potential. TNT freshman Kobe Davis shared a little insight before the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\t\u201cI think we have the chemistry,\u201d Davis said. \u201cOne thing they do have is they outsize us a lot, which is really big and will be beneficial for them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\tOn the other side of the court, GSP sophomore and athletic director Collin Blackburn said TNT was one of the greatest competitors out of all of the clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\t\u201cI wouldn\u2019t say rivalry, but they have been some of our biggest competition,\u201d Blackburn said. \u201cThe reason why I wouldn\u2019t say rivalry is because we don\u2019t hate them; they don\u2019t hate us. It is all friendly competition, but if you wanted to use that word, yes they would be our biggest rivalry this year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blackburn spoke about his club\u2019s sentiments about the match along with his beliefs as to why they won.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey\u2019re a good team, and I think we played pretty good.\u201d Blackburn said. \u201cThey probably didn’t play as well they hoped for, but it was a good game. We played really well, we played to our strengths, and that is what got us the win.\u201d
