Although from a small African country, the national team of Cape Verde does at times receive major media coverage, particularly on the eve of this historic Olympic Qualifying Tournament. Recent coverage has included more than half a dozen articles on the official FIBA website, FIBA.com, as well as mentions in the Providence Journal, Pro Basketball News, and elsewhere. Jeff Xavier’s addition to the team sparked an article on the website of the NCAA, NCAA.com, as well as an extensive article in the Pawtucket Times June 24th, www.PawtucketTimes.com ‘Friar’s Xavier has Olympic Hopes.’
Any members of the media covering the team can contact Dan Klotz, Dan@CVHoops.com or Pedro Gomes, Criolo@hotmail.com
