The midnight madness struck Riverside City College Oct. 1 at Huntly Gym following the RCC football game vs. Chaffey College.
Coach John Smith displayed the 2011-12 RCC men’s basketball team by sending the team through various tasks including a slam dunk contest, three-point shooting contest and a scrimmage against each other.
The event was also was a way to hype up the upcoming season as the team sold raffle tickets for $10 as one lucky winner received an iPad.
“We have a lot of new faces but the team is already starting to come together as a unit,” said Smith.
“We have a lot of new talent and were excited for this upcoming season,” he said. “Expectations are high.”
The Tigers will be preparing for the upcoming season but the team will be participating in different tournaments.
Riverside plays its first home game against Cal Baptist University in January.
