Time out for a sports update: the Oglethorpe women’s basketball team entered uncharted territory Friday evening, winning its first ever NCAA tournament game (having lost the first round the previous two seasons). Last night, they took on the hitherto undefeated (29-0) Thomas More College Saints--#3 in the nation--on their home court and won, finishing the game with a 19-6 run.
Congratulations to Coach Ron Sattele and his remarkable group of players.
JK: a man of good taste to like women's basketball!!
Our men are no slouches, but haven't put the pieces together as successfully as the women have.
What's more I like both coaches a lot: the grandfather who came out of retirement (after a very successful h.s. coaching career) and the young man who corresponds with Pat Conroy and has his guys winning community service awards.
