Lobster boat delivers Red Claws uniforms
Only here in Portland would a basketball team unveil its sharp new uniforms via lobster boat. And that's exactly what happened this afternoon when John Ready, captain of Catch a Piece of Maine, rolled up to the dock below Bell Buoy Park and delivered two Maine b-ball stars dressed in the Red Claws' new threads.
On the left is Matt Clement, a former Lawrence High and Maine Maritime standout, and to his right is Jamaal Caterina, a former Deering High and University of Southern Maine star and Maine's 2001 Mr. Basketball.
Matt and Jamaal then joined Red Claws Chairman Bill Ryan, Jr., who announced that both of today's models would participate in the upcoming Northeast tryouts, which will likely take place in Boston. Let's hope they both make the cut.
The new team also announced its schedule, with the first home game set for Dec. 4 at 8 pm at the Portland Expo. You can buy tickets on the Red Claws' website.
