Coach Becker on Bald: "Brendan will be counted on to be our primary defender against the best wing player on every team we face. He shot the ball really well from three last year and has been developing his mid-range game over the summer to complement his long range shooting and slashing ability. Brendan will become a more focal point of our offense this year and we are going to need for him to consistently to be one of our best players."
