Coming into the season everyone knew about Stevens, The biggest surprise this season Has been the emergence of the "other" Tower Tyson OldHam "coming into the season, People looked us and thought, oh their a playoff team, but thats it, Chris cant do it by himself. Well we heard em, we know that and thats why guys have resoded the way we did, its why i resonded the way i did, Now they cant just focus on chris, Whenever they do, i make sure to make em pay, so its a pick your poison kind of deal"
Apparently Tyson wasnt the only one who felt that way. "We always liked what we had established here with chirs, We always knew what we had in tyson, even if other didn't. But last season we just felt we were a piece or two away. im proud to say thats not the case anymore" With signing of the 21 year old SF Slasher/ Scorer, the crown heights knights feel like they have the mix of youth and talent needed to be Crowned champs this year.
