We don't see letter sweaters much anymore but to this young man, his letter and trophy were symbolic of a great season of Junior High basketball. And, as his dad, I probably took as much pride in it as he did. While his active playing career may have reached its pinnacle at this level, he went on to be associated with basketball teams as a student manager and statistician at Wakefield HS, UN-L and Duke University. We are all Duke basketball fans today as the result of his devotion to the team. We will get home from Church this noon to see them take on North Carolina in the final of the ACC tournament.
Great Game this afternoon. Duke won 75-58 but it was closer than the score would indicate.
