MBB: Coast 2 Coast Athletic Conference

[Jeff Gamber]

Pat....thanks for helping Division III basketball......also great job singing National Anthem    ....you'll be the answer to the trivia question...Who is the last person to sing the National Anthem in Wolf Gym?

Thanks to all the supporters of York college Basketball - students, faculty, staff, and certainly the York Community....great atmoshere this weekend even with our students on break

[Pat Coleman]

No problem, I still enjoy doing the site, grumpy posters and late nights notwithstanding.

My motivation was merely not having to stand through Whitney Houston again, not becoming a trivia answer, but that will work too.

We need tape of that, and we need it now!     Seriously that needs to be archived for everyone to listen to.

Maybe Dave Mac can give us all a replay on Hoopsville this week.

[Warren Thompson]

What, Webmeister Pat sang the National Anthem?

[And I betcha, yessir, I betcha, he sang it better than Miss Gladys Gooding ever did on those Friday nights so long ago. ]

[Matt Letourneau]

Pat---
Have you ever sung the National Anthem before a Catholic game?

If it hadn't taken me more than 3 hours to get to York from DC Friday night, I wouldn't have missed it!

[Pat Coleman]

I have, but it's been a while. I think the last time I did the anthem at DuFour was for the exhibition games against the school from Canada -- I did both anthems.

Which was cool -- I have always wanted to do O Canada.

NCAA Tournament games are not permitted to be archived online, otherwise I'd direct people to Broadcastmonsters.com and their link on the front page for Past Shows, then to pick out the proper date and start about 24:30 into it.

In Their Element. As if full-court pressure, towering centers and pesky defenders weren't enough, imagine playing basketball without the ability to hear. Gallaudet University's Division III basketball team deals with that extra challenge every day. Founded in the late 1800s, Gallaudet is the world's only liberal arts college for the deaf and hearing-impaired. Yet the school's athletes are less concerned with the disadvantages of being deaf than with the strength of their schedule or an opponent's three-point percentage. Competing in the Capital Atlantic Conference, the Bison have tallied a winning record, and this year's team is not the first to experience success. With a few Division I caliber players, it will won't be the last, either. REAL SPORTS correspondent James Brown sits down with the squad; interviews include Gallaudet head coach and alumnus James DeStefano; assistant coach Stephen Farias; head coach of rival Marymount College Scott McClary; Bison players Robert Haney and Luther Weedon; and Weedon's mom, Antoinette, the team's number-one supporter.

I'll second Coach's thanks for Pat's singing. I'll also thank Coach Gamber for all he has done for the program and the school over the years, both in his time as AD and coach of the Golf and Basketball teams. I also got an A from him in my Basketball Gym class, which was great. I'm looking forward to the event on April 29th to open the new Gym, and I can't wait to get my piece of the old floor. Myself and 11 other alumni have a fantasy football league where we call our end of year trophy the Gamber Cup, now instead of passing out a pipe as the trophy I think we are going to use a piece of Kitchen Tile. (I know, fantasy football awards, and posting on a DIII board, I am the coolest guy anyone knows.) 

Pat, can't we up Coach Gamber to a level higher then Junior Varsity, I know he only has three posts, but he is a busy guy? I was hoping the next round in this bracket wouldn't be at Va Wesleyan because I would have liked to go and see some more games, but that is a bit too far from York. Guess I'll just have to sit in front of my computer and listen. 

[John Rusnak]

How can us non-York people get a piece of that floor??

[Knightstalker]

How can us non-York people get a piece of that floor??

At Home Depot or Lowes?

[Matt Letourneau]

Basketball gym class?

[muchacho]

Basketball gym class?

I never saw any gym class offered at Catholic...I guess thats why we can't be in the same conference anymore.

[Reserved Seat]

Can the basketball players take basketball for credit, or is it like a math major being exempt from an easy Calculus course?
I guess it can't hurt the average, if it counts.

[John Rusnak]

In high school I created a class called "basketball."  My coach was the teacher, except he had another class at the same time, so he never really paid attention to what I was doing.  I found that going home during that hour and thinking about the game was the best use of time and the most rewarding.

[Knightstalker]

In high school we invented a class called "Woods" and that is where we went every day during study hall.  Woods usually involved That 70's Show types of activities.
