"Overall I was pleased," said new Southeast coach Scott Edgar. "We have worked very hard in our opening practices on transisition offense and I thought we did a good job of getting the ball down the floor. We will be working more on defense in our upcoming practices. I think we have the talent and depth to have a good basketball team."
