Justice Sueing returns to his home state of Hawaii where he'll reunite with family, share his culture with teammates and try to lead OSU to a 3-0 record in the Maui Invitational.
Ohio State will be swimming with sharks during next week’s Maui Invitational, which features five ranked competitors on an eight-team tournament bracket. If Justice Sueing had his way, the program would approach that concept in a more literal sense.
“I think it’s just exciting just because not a lot of people get to play in this invitational. So it’s a blessing just with that alone, and then also the fact that I’m from there, I’m from that state,” Sueing said. “The culture there, I can’t wait to experience it with my teammates and kind of show them how I was raised growing up with how the people are there, the foods and just kind of the nature of it.
“From now on, our schedule is pretty intense. We have this tournament, we have Duke, we have a couple good non-conference games before we go to New York. From here on out, we’re in the deep end,” Sueing said. “I’m just really excited to get out there with the guys and get challenged right from the start really. And get through those hurdles and see how far we’ve grown and as well as get to learn what we need to continue to grow on to have a successful season.
“I was just talking to Ice about this, I was talking about how the weather there is just so different compared to anywhere else. That’s probably the one thing I miss the most about it,” Sueing said. “Especially right now when it hit this week, it’s getting real cold here in Columbus. So I’m like, man I just can’t wait to get some sunshine, lay on that beach for a little bit. It’s gonna be great, I’m definitely looking forward to that.
