Ty Phillips

Whats going on guys, hope everyone is working hard this summer. My name is Ty and I am entering my sophomore year at UPG. I am a Criminal Justice Major and of course a member of the basketball team. I graduated from Penn Hills High School I played AAAA basketball for four years varsity 3 of those years. The reason I chose UPG most importantly is the degree holds weight in this country, and life after basketball is important to me. The classes are a decent size not to big so I still get individual attention.

The other reason I chose UPG is of course basketball I feel like we have all the proper pieces to do something great for our school and community, we just all have to buy into it. Last season was a bit disappointing but still a learning experience. I feel that the 2011-2012 season will be our run for the AMCC Championship we are all hungry for it and we all are passionate about the game and hate losing. The team chemistry will be great this year we all get along well and have a lot of fun together except Brock he doesn't go out much haha. I look at this team like a family and I plan on playing like one this upcoming season I cant wait to see you guys soon 1 month and counting
