About Nick »

The name is Nick and I pretty much live for sports...They are my life! I love to play and watch any sport there is and I play Tennis, baseball, basketball, football, soccer, lacrosse(sometimes), and MMA. I will be attending Ursinus College in the fall to study Business&Economics with a possible minor in Journalism where I will also be playing tennis, can't wait. Other than sports I love movies, music, reading, and chillin with my friends. I have a ton of favorite athletes that I'll list somewhere else but my favorite teams are Cincinnati Reds, Atlanta Falcons, Houston Rockets/Dallas Mavericks, and my favorite college team is Memphis. Anything else just hit me up LilWillis3530, or BlakeRulez4@yahoo.com.

Hey Nick,

I just completed the second of a three part series between myself, Mike Kline and Justin McTeer, breaking down the Duke Blue Devils basketball season.

I highlight the back court of Duke and the different players that will need to contribute to the team. If you get a chance, check it out.

Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks!
