    The Griffins look to show off their skills as the team hosts the 43rd annual Grossmont College Men’s Basketball Tournament from Dec. 5 to 7. The Griffins’ first game will be held on Dec. 5 against Cypress College, located in North Orange County, on Friday at 6 p.m. Look to see the Griffins trying to make a name for themselves as this tournament kicks off.

    Be sure to keep an eye on the way Grossmont likes to run their offense and play as a whole. With the players’ size and height, there is no question that the team can beat Cypress, which finished the 2013-14 season with a 7-20 record. They finished 2-10 in their conference and had a better road record than home record. Usually it is a bad sign when a team has a better road record than away record because it shows that they let any team come into their building and rough them up. That is not the mentality teams should have.

    Cypress’ home record was 1-11, while their road record was 4-6. Cypress is known to be an inconsistent team. You never know how they can come out and play in this tournament, but if Grossmont takes care of business early in the game, there should not be a problem coming out with a victory to start the tournament. If Grossmont can beat Cypress, they will be moving on in the tournament and head to the semifinal game.
