Men’s Basketball Little Huskies Recap

HOUGHTON, Mich. – The Michigan Tech men’s basketball team held its Little Huskies basketball camp last week at the SDC. Members of the team taught drills and coached and officiated scrimmages from 4-6 p.m. on Oct. 6-9.

“It’s great to be with the kids that support us at our games,” junior guard Jordan Chartier said. “Being able to work with them to make them better basketball players is also really important. These kids really look up to us and we love seeing the same kids every year at camp and at our games.”

“Interacting with all the kids is a lot of fun,” sophomore guard Jason Hawke added. “They bring so much energy to the SDC.”

Some of the Little Huskies shared their thoughts:
