From Bob Ryan's column in the Globe following the Harper Williams game with 'Cuse at the Centrum:
"Now it's on to Philadelphia and Thursday night's rematch with Kentucky. Not that any of this comes as a surprise to the UMass True Believers, kids like Scott Newman, Michael Tow, Michael Fetterer, Chuck Austin and Jeff Crofts, who had toted in a banner reading "Unquestionably Making An entrance to the Sweet Sixteen," and whose faith was again rewarded by the best team Our State U. has ever had."
Well done Mike...

My best -- Harpers 3 against Syracuse. I was in such shock I took a picture of the tv with the final score. So emotionally drained to see UMass advance, I felt like I played in the game
My Favorite -- Will "The Thrill" Herndon's alley-oop vs. Kentucky. Thanks VOR for reminding me, you just made my day. His head almost hit the rim

I traded seats with a Kentucky fan who left after the first game, and was about three rows behind the Syracuse bench. I was giving it to Boeheim incessantly through the entire game.ShadesOf96and98 wrote:From Bob Ryan's column in the Globe following the Harper Williams game with 'Cuse at the Centrum:

Tony Barbee's tip in at the buzzer against Temple in their last meeting in The Cage. I was right behind the UMASS bench, and once the ball went through, the entire crowd rushed the court.
Runner-up is Mike William's bank shot at Temple. I was sent there by Chancellor Scott as part of a 'peace delegation" after the infamous Chaney-Calipari "I'll kill you" incident. I was wearing a ton of UMASS shit and once that game was over, I stripped and hightailed it out of McGonigle Hall.
Ah, the memories.
GO UMASS!

Kudos to my old roommate Chuck, and his dad for getting us the corporate seats, first row in the corner section, over the tunnel. We were yelling to Bob to get his attention after the game.ShadesOf96and98 wrote:From Bob Ryan's column in the Globe following the Harper Williams game with 'Cuse at the Centrum:

That was a heck of a spring break week, with UMass in the first 2 rounds in Worcester, and 2 U2 shows, one of which at Boston Garden on St. Patrick's Day
Shades: good use of the History Scoreboards section!
