Associated Press: Tyler Sekerak was named VP of Basketball Operations for Team JC, effective for the summer session of the Lakewood Y D1 Men's League. This was announced by general manager of team JC, John Curran, at 2:30am Sunday morning at Dive Bar on West 6th. Tyler's day to day activities will include scheduling spring workouts, scouting and signing potential players, organizing bar sponsorship for the team, and encouraging local Lakewood girl talent to come watch our games. Administratively, he will have the assignment of scheduling all our games at good times, making sure we are on the good court for most of our games, allowing us to have players play on our team even if they are not on the roster, and organizing our schedule so we play the good teams on good nights.

"We are very pleased to welcome Tyler into the Team JC family", Curran said at a hung over press conference this morning at a local breakfast spot. "He is an OAC journeyman, and that is something our organization COVETS. "Tyler will be a valued asset both on and off the court. I look forward to working with him in the coming months, as we prepare to make a violent and aggressive run through this gauntlet of a league."

Sekerak spoke about how joining a top flight organization was an obvious move for him. "This is my dream job." The chance to play with John Curran, one of the most dynamic and explosive scorers in the league, is something I have wanted to do ever since he used to scorch me when we were playing in college. " "IF the rumors are true about Johnny getting new basketball shoes with good grip and are 12.9 ounces, I don't see how anyone could him under 40 points per night." "He is also one of the most knowledgable GMs in the business, and continues to be ahead of the curve."

All in all, things are looking up for Team JC, as they head into the spring quiet period. Curran is in talks with several high profile free agents. He is also in talks with players currently in the league looking to sign for more money and touches. Bub Shuler, a journeyman, has been a name that has come up in GM conversation circles. Sekerak and Curran both declined comment on the potential of Shuler joining the roster. An alleged failed drug test during random testing last summer cost Shuler his Y season last year. Bigs and post were a position that really hamstrung the roster last summer, as the team could not match up with the man's game post players. With the addition of Sekerak, Team JC hopes to make a big transition from contender to pretender.
