Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka, Andre the Giant, Sgt. Slaughter and the pesky Iron Sheik became staples of our enjoyment. At night the WWF gave way to another league: The Big East. That little brown box and that fledgling sports network (third button from the left on the second row) changed everything. All of those phony wrestling story lines were replaced by an even more colorful cast of the most implausible group you can imagine — a bunch of kids and the coaches that loved them shooting hoops for the Tri-State area’s local Catholic colleges, colleges that most of the nation west of I-95 had never heard of. What’s a Hoya? Which exit for Seton Hall? You play games at Rhode Island? What’s with that guy’s sweater? Let’s stop there for a moment. The guy wearing the sweater was Lou Carnesecca. He was the coach of St. Johns. His shooting guard was Chris Mullin, and the kid was lights out. He’s the guy who’s going to be recruiting you, the guy who’s going to be coaching you, and dealing with the boosters and the press. Real quick, here’s his resume: Education: McDonald’s High School All-American, three-time Big East player of the year, three-time All- American and winner of both the Oscar Robertson and John Wooden Awards, which is basically the bas- ketball Heisman. Professional experience: Five-time NBA All-Star, averaged 20 points per game, GM of the Golden State Warriors, VP of the Sacramento Kings. Volunteer work: Two-time Olympic Gold Medal win- ner, original member of the 1996 “Dream Team.” Awards: Yeah. He’s in the Hall of Fame. All of them. To the detractors, let’s rea- son this out. The kids may not know who he is, but the parents sure do, and he knows the academic part of the equation because he’s already done that ... he went there. Boosters? You’re welcome. All that’s left for Mullin is our anticipation of what’s on next. team included: freshman Cole Spencer, who was third in the 800 meters (2:40.68) and high jump (4-10); Tucker Ford, with second place in the high jump (5-4), fourth place in the javelin (98-0) and fifth in the triple jump (32-07.5); junior Trevver D’Auteuil, who was fourth in the discus (76-08), seventh in the shot put (32- 01.5) and eighth in the 200- meter race (29.15); sophomore Tyler Packebush, with fourth place in the 300-meter hurdles (50.99) and seventh in the long jump (14-11); and freshman Dominic Wells, who was fourth in the high jump (4-8), seventh in the 200 meters (28.44) and ninth in the javelin (76-03). Despite the effort, Mapleton finished second (165.5) to Triangle Lake (196). Lowell was third overall (73.5) and Alsea was fourth (61). “Your Quick Response Team!” (541) 999-0237 Readers Choice Voted #1 Realtor Shawn Fleming Construction Light Commercial & Residential 20+ years experience - Bonded & Insured - 541-999-8727 woodworking927@gmail.com Florence, Oregon CCB#127088 Get Results...List With Tim.
