From assistant coach Tim LaComb - Tuesday, Aug. 16

We arrived in Athens via NYC at 9:30 a.m. Greece time (Tuesday). We left the airport and took a bus tour of Athens. We visited the Panathinaikos which hosted the Olympics in 1896. We walked the Plaka section of Athens below the Acropolis. We had a team meal in the evening and all tried to fight off jet leg. Everyone is healthy and happy. We are excited to see the Parthenon and play our first game this afternoon at 6 p.m. vs Athens All Stars. Will report more later.
