"Storytime" with Gat Bol

Joining me on the kick-off episode of "Ben on Hoops" is rising Junior at the University of Portland, Gat Bol. Gat's journey is unlike any other. Born in the African nation of South Sudan, he moved to Colorado at the age of 5 with no knowledge of English. In 2006, Gat moved to what is his current home of Seattle, Washington to live with his aunt and her family. Having attended multiple schools before the 9th grade, basketball gave him the sense of stability that he desired in his life. Gat discusses his love of basketball, his experiences as a high school player in Seattle, and the impact that hoops has had on his life.  Enjoy!
