I'm a long-time MIAA board "lurker" but this is my first time posting.
Having gone to Calvin basketball games for over 15 years (and having graduated from Calvin myself), you would be hard-pressed to find someone who enjoys Knights basketball more than I do. And I congratulate Coach Vande Steek and the team on their great season.
However, I also feel compelled to say that there have been few instances where I have been more frustrated and embarrassed by the conduct of a portion of the Calvin student section than I was on Saturday night. I hope their irresponsible behavior in no way detracted from the excitement of the night's events for Hope's players and fans.
That being said, good luck in the NCAA's, Hope. And if you don't happen to win the national title this year don't worry, you can stop by and take a look at one of ours any day.
