STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Discussing his team ahead of its season-opening Tournament of Heroes, College of Staten Island men’s basketball coach T.J. Tibbs mentioned the adjustment guard Aaron Goldstein had to make last season.

“He struggled a little bit last year with being number one on (opposing team) scouting reports,” Tibbs said. “It’s a huge difference when an entire team is trying to stop you.”

Well, if the weekend’s work is any indication, junior guard Goldstein, who averaged 12.0 points per game last season, is adapting quite well and he’s got company. Goldstein had a game-high 27 points in Friday night’s 77-71 win over St. Michael’s and was one of many contributors to a 92-81 win over Chestnut Hill yesterday.
