“I think they’re well respected by all their teammates and, to my knowledge, there’s not anybody that dislikes them on the team. They both are in good standing academically - which also came into consideration,” head coach Mike Thornton said.
The lady Pirates will play its first game on Dec. 11 against Mt. San Jancito at 7 p.m. and will return home on Jan. 6 to play its first home OEC game against RCC at 7:30 p.m.
Who is your celebrity crush and why?Murray: David Beckham because of his beautiful body and his tattoos.
If you could have dinner with anyone dead or alive, who would it be and why?
Mahi: I would say Ellen DeGeneres because she is hilarious – or Michael Jackson.
Last time you cried during a movie and why?
Murray: I have a last time I cried during a show. It was “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” I cry every time.
What’s in your gym bag that’s weird or you don’t want people to know about?
Mahi: I have my bathing suit just in case I don’t have class and I get to go to the beach.
Do you think you deserve more playing time?
Murray: No, because we haven’t got into the season yet, but it just depends on how you play individually in practice because how I practice is how I play in the game.
What’s the weirdest thing in your room and why do you still have it?
Mahi: I have a big portrait of myself – like a big poster. It was from high school, like those banners they put up on the gym wall. It’s really weird because people come into my room and like, “Are you conceited?”
What is your biggest pet peeve and why?
Murray: People interrupting when I’m talking because it just cuts the flow off.
LeBron or Kobe and why?
Mahi: Oh man, that’s so easy. It’s LeBron – King James!
Murray: Why? Please tell me.
Mahi: I’m not a Kobe lover and LeBron is just a beast. LeBron James can just knock him down. Any day, LeBron James.
Me: Then tell your Kobe argument?
Murray: Kobe is just amazing. There’s no questions about it.
Mahi: Overrated.
Murray: No he’s not! MVP. What about that? MVP.
