Greetings From Doha Qatar


Landed in Doha last night at 10pm (2pm Wisconsin time), 17 hours was the travel time. It is 109 degrees out today. Will spend some time with Jake Nonemacher (UW Stout 7'0 Center) today and he will fly back to Wisconsin tonight. Jake played for the Rayyan Club (Doha) in a tournament in Iran. It was his professional debut. Coach Gardow's wife Brooke flew in with me so Coach Eric is quite happy today as you might expect. Getting settled and rested today and will begin preparation for our trip to Slovenia tommorrow. We will fly to Slovenia May 31st.
