Student Life Marcus

For my Student Life Blog post I went to the Baruch school gym to play basketball with Nick, Glen and Hafizur. We had just finished our Anthropology class and had a few hours to kill before FRO, and so headed down to the basement gym were we were able to play a few good pickup games. The teams were me, Glen and Nick versus Hafizur and two other students that were also in the gym. The first game we totally crushed, while the second was closer but we still managed to win. We went at it for about an hour and a half, and definitely got some nice exercise. I was highly impressed by my fellow student’s basketball skills, especially Glen’s three point shot, Nick’s post-up game and Hafizur’s  crazy blocks. My shot was pretty off and I didn’t play my best, as I haven’t really been playing much basketball the past few years, but was still able to get some nice plays and shots.  I’m really glad I went and will definitely be going more often in the future. I was able to get some exercise, have fun and meet some new cool people. It’s great that they have a gym at Baruch that’s available most of the time and allows students to play basketball during their free time at school.
