Bay City Thunder & Lightning

2011-2012 Roster

CRI’s 2011-2012 Bay City Thunder and Lightning basketball team has a chance to be something special. The players have been working hard since the summer and are ready to see some big changes this season. They are now familiar with the “system” their coach, Marc Keller, is running and the teams commitment is at an all-time high.

The compilation of Bay City’s returning players and the new additions that were brought aboard in the off season the stage is set for Bay City to make a run at the NWBA Division III National Title. Tim Finegan, Executive Director of CRI, has been extremely supportive of the team and understands what it takes to build a competitive program.

We are not building for just this year, but Bay City is building a team that will be a powerhouse for years to come. Marc Keller, Bay City’s Head Coach, has been presented with a unique opportunity to bring his coaching experience to CRI and is nothing but enthusiastic about what the future holds.

The expectations are clear and simple for this year, learn from each practice, execute in each game, and watch the scoreboard take care of itself. By the time nationals come, if Bay City can do those things and play within themselves it will be interesting to see what happens. No one nationally expects anything from CRI, that’s the way Bay City likes it because then the players have to live up to no one but their own internal expectations.
