Tragic news... Trigger was not only a pillar of UMass Basketball and Athletics, but he was a genuinely good guy. I was lucky enough to have met and interacted with him on numerous occasions... just a stand up individual that loved the U as much as, if not more than, anyone else.

Rest easy, George.

In response to the tribute to Trigger at the game last night:

Thanks @UMassMBB
I know my dad is smiling in heaven with thanks and gratitude for all Umass did for him! He loved Umass; the education he got there; and of course, the men's basketball team that he loved!! RIP dad!!! - lovingly, your daughter Joanne
