Both St. Bonaventure (SBU) and the University of Kentucky had storied basketball programs, but had never faced each other.
That changed on a Thursday afternoon on March 16, 2000, in the Cleveland State University Convocation Center. The Bonnies, decided underdogs in the first round NCAA game, brought 21 wins to the contest before losing to Kentucky in double overtime, 85-80. In a 2020 CBS Sports article by Matt Norlander, the game was ranked (#46) as among the 101 most exciting games in modern NCAA history.
At 22-9, Kentucky Wildcats fell to Arkansas in the first round of the ..read more

I searched without success. Yes, I consulted the National Day Calendar, and it wasn’t there.
I’m saddened to tell you that you missed “National Talk Like Shakespeare” Day (April 23). Perhaps that news doth brings warm cheer to your heart. Ironically it was the same exact day as “National Take a Chance Day,” which presented an opportunity for the most reluctant to move out of their comfort zone.

In only his fourth season as the Bonnies head coach, Jim Satalin found himself in the national spotlight against famed coached Guy Lewis. Looking back 45 years later, Satalin recalled, “It was certainly a challenge for me to coach against someone of that stature, but I felt ok going into the game. I felt comfortable that we would be very competitive in this game for sure.”
A crowd of 12,451 packed Madison Square Garden for the 1pm tip on March 20, and Houston star Otis Birdsong was ready. The Bonnies led, 45-42, at halftime, but, by midway through the second half, he had alre ..read more

I did not know Franco Harris, the Pittsburgh Steeler icon who passed away on December 20. I had the privilege of meeting him briefly at an event in Pittsburgh about seven years ago. To a kid like me growing up in the 1970s, Harris was a larger-than-life figure and, in person, a most engaging and kind person who was far more than the single football play that he was best known for.
A first-round NFL draft pick in 1972, Harris went from Penn State to becoming a Pro Bowl running back in each of his first nine seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He surpassed 1000 yards in eight of hi ..read more
