Coach Sutton Speaks to Grove Rotary

Coach Scott Sutton, Oral Roberts University, spoke to the Grove Rotary Club at this week's
meeting. He was accompanied by assistant coach Corey Williams, former NBA player with
the Chicago Bulls and defensive back with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Sutton said he was very excited about the upcoming season at ORU and hopes this will be the year to make the NCAA Tournament. He recalled that last year the team missed the tournament by one game and this year they have most of the players returning for another season.
"We've come a long way the last seven years," he said, and invited everyone to come to Tulsa for an ORU game. "We play OU, Minnesota, and will be in the Great Alaska Shootout with two games on ESPN."
Corey Williams recalled his days on the Bulls roster with Michael Jordan, who gave him the name PeeWee due to his size. The team won the NBA Championship that year.
Scott is the son of legendary OSU Coach Eddie Sutton. Scott said his 4-year-old daughter can already "do the lip thing."
