Greg Vlosich is ready to resume his basketball career after coming back from knee surgery that sidelined him for the entire 2005-06 season. It was a tough injury for a player who has earned every accomplishment that he has achieved since making the Viking basketball team as a walk-on in the fall of 2003. Through hard work in practice, he moved himself into the lineup as a reserve at guard and he is determined to not let the injury affect his playing time. A hard worker in practice, he comes to play every day and enjoys challenging the first unit in practice through his play on the scout team.
