ALASKA coach Jeff Cariaso said wantaway Vic Manuel remains the top priority of the team to re-sign to a new contract despite his request to be traded out of the Aces.
Cariaso met with Manuel on Friday night to discuss his contract situation. The Aces coach declined to reveal details of what transpired during the meeting, except to say both sides agreed to remain open to possibilities.
"Vic and I left the meeting with an understanding on what possibilities the future may hold. I will keep the details private to maintain respect," said Cariaso.
"As always, I reminded him that doing things the right way will always be the best way — that honesty, integrity, and honor must never wither as we discuss plans while understanding each other’s situation."
