Not sure if you guys are aware by St. Marys Mens Basketball will be touring Australia August 8-18... Info from my buddy who is an assistant coach.. Locations and teams they are playing against are yet to be advised... Maybe a good one for a trip interstate to catch a look....

From what I have seen on ESPN they are a really competitive team + have close to half a dozen aussies on their roster.
Would like to see these at the dome...

Great news if it pans out.
The Aussies on the team are:
Ben Allen - Senior - VIC - AIS
Clint Steindl - Sophomore - QLD - AIS
Matt Dellavedova - Freshman - VIC - AIS
Jordan Page - Freshman - QLD - AIS
Mitch Young - Freshman - QLD - AIS
And of course Patty Mills if he pulls out of the draft - however unlikely that is.

This team would struggle in any decent conference... look at who they have been playing against! Good team in a shit league

I would think all the Oz guys would be a little disappointed.
Many colleges do an overseas tour approx every four years, europe, asia, south america, some have also toured africa.
They get to come home for two weeks.

I'd like to see them at the Dome too. SOS, can you make it happen? Probably not enough time to organise since as far as I know a lease hasn't even been signed on the Dome yet. Maybe Pasadena stadium like they did for Sixers pre-season?

Cannot see them coming to Adelaide. More than likely only play against the teams in the Eastern states.

Yes their first assistant is an Aussie from the AIS i think.... My buddy is one of the other Assistants in the program.... No doubt they will spend time at the AIS, Sydney and Melbourne....

The Australian assistant coach you are referring to is David Patrick.
