Now the Emory PxP women's basketball commentator is telling the story of the NFL's Pottsville (PA) Maroons from the 1920's, who later played as the Boston (MA) Bulldogs in the 1929 season.

Just watched a few mins of 1st half today and was impressed with NYU, especially some aggressive individual guards, taking it to the hoop and defending, also.
NYU assistant Audrey Cunningham was among my earliest prospects years(12) ago.
