Episode 117 - Syla Swords

Episode 117 takes us all the way to New York with the 11th-ranked player in the United States, a Michigan basketball commit, and one of the best up-and-coming Canadian players we have in our country; Syla Swords!

Syla is getting ready for her senior season with @luhigirlsbasketball as her squad is the pre-season #1 team in the entire United States! Syla is beyond her years in maturity and understanding who she is, she has lofty goals, a desire to improve and a unique family dynamic to lean on in hard times.

Mitch and Syla discuss the tough decision to leave Ontario and move to the States, why Michigan was the place for her, her crazy double Bronze medal in July, and what her long-term goals are with Team Canada! We thank Syla for being with us and wish her all the best this season! Any young hooper out there needs to check this episode out, you will hear and learn what it takes to be a next-level player!
