I remember him as a freshman on the 1984 cinderella Flyers team that upset LSU, Oklahoma and Washington before losing to eventual National Champion Georgetown in the West Regional final. I remember him going into his sophomore year expecting to get increased playing time coming off the bench, but when Ed Young tore up his knee that Fall, he stepped into the starting lineup and remained a starter for the remainder of his career at Dayton. Anthony, if you ever read this, I hope you will consider going back to Dayton if the opportunity comes along... even though I know bigger name schools will come calling for you in the not too distant future. Good luck and congratulations on your success at VCU! Tim McAlevy Fairfax, VA.

I had it typed out properly before but on 5StarHoops.com they listed it that way so I just copied and pasted their intro. Doug - I dropped the ball on that, thanks for pointing out my mistake.

One would think that the conference that put a midmajor into the Final Four for the first time since 1979 could at least expect to have its conference name said correctly, at least once in a while. the name of the league is the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA)….not the Colonial Conference (or Colonial League or Colonial Federation or any combination of names that media seem to use when mis-naming the conference).
