Basketball – Girls

In tune with the sports frenzy on campus BEP caught up with the Girls’ Basketball Team captain Nupur Gupta. She was upbeat about the team’s form and happy with the team’s practice. They have been practicing two hours every day and have intensified the practice in the past ten days with sessions both morning and evening. She was worried about rains as they are hampering practice and creating problems due to water-logging in the court. She is satisfied with participation of first-yearites with the team having three enthusiastic first-yearites this time. The team also got a new coach two days back. Commenting on this she said it would have been nice if they could have had more time with the coach. She feels DU colleges will be the major competitors this BOSM. The team is a great mixture of experience and freshness this year, with most of its senior players playing as well as new players from the first year. She is very optimistic about the team’s chances of winning as the team has been having a winning streak; winning gold medals in MNIT, Jaipur and IIT, Delhi last semester. She hopes that BITSian’s will turn up in large numbers for all matches and cheer the home team to victory.
