New Zealand College Coach Visits Knights' Practice

On Thursday, Nov 21, Coach Piet Van Hasselt of the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand visited the Northridge practice as part of his whirlwind tour of basketball practices and games in the United States.  

Coach Piet is making this trip in an effort to improve the level of basketball coaching in his home country.  You can read about his trip on his blog: http://pietvh.tumblr.com

The Knights were honored and humbled that Coach Piet selected Northridge as one of his stops given the many outstanding basketball options that he has at his disposal in Chicago and the greater midwest.

Again, we thank him for selecting Northridge.  We wish him well and hope that his trip is worthwhile professionally and personally rewarding.
