Beginning the season 7 – 3 before entering conference play, the Central men’s basketball team had a 22-day layover between games due to the Christmas break. In retrospect, Coach Craig Douma says that the long vacation could have played a part in their slow start out of the gate in Iowa Conference contests. Douma added that it’s not an excuse, and the schedule for 2013-14 has a trip to Puerto Rico scheduled for the end of December to help keep the guys fresh and ready to go. The Dutch finished the 2012-13 season with a 10 – 14 record.
