KSC Coaches Go Abroad This Summer

From Stuart Kaufman, Sports Information:

This summer, KSC coaches hit the road in a new way: Rob Colbert and a squad of graduated basketball players from the Northeast just returned from Greece and Italy, and Ron Butcher will take a group of upperclassmen from his Owl men’s soccer team to Costa Rica from August 13 to 22.

The Owls will play four games against club and reserves teams before returning home and getting set for preseason camp. The KSC men’s soccer team opens up its season at the Salisbury (Md.) University Elmer Lord Soccer Classic on August 30 to 31.

USA Athletes International asked Colbert to put his traveling basketball team together. The 10-member squad included former Owls Travon Little, Matt Hickey, and Kevin Ritter as well as players from Rhode Island College and other area programs. They left on June 30 and returned July 9, playing two games in Athens and Bologna.
