Fall Workouts Start August 29th

The 2016 summer was huge for the Bombers. The players made

great progress in all aspects. The program has really grown in the

three years in the off-season work. Each year the program has a

goal of making 25,000 shots during the summer through 1-hour

workouts. This year the program made over 33,000 shots! That is

the most shots made by the program in the three-year period.

This summer has provided a much needed momentum push after

last season. This year the Bombers look to return every piece to a

team that went 9-15. In the 6 losses, Rensselaer lost 7 games by 6

points or less.

7th Grade Coach Needed Coach McFarland and the program are in need of a 7th Grade Coach. If you are interested or know of someone that

would be interested please contact Coach McFarland.
