Sanford Pentagon - WSU vs Memphis ESPN Marathon Game

[cadsev]

The Sanford Pentagon is excited to host the ESPN nationally televised game between Wichita State University Shockers and the University of Memphis Tigers. Many of you most likely have never heard of the Sanford Pentagon and we are hopeful that you take the opportunity to attend the game here in Sioux Falls, SD on November 18th. To help generate some excitement we're going to offer some Pentagon trivia questions to the fans of WSU and will give away 2 free game tickets to the game. Answers to the trivia question need to be emailed to: paul.seville@sanfordhealth.org.

First Question:
The Sanford Pentagon has a throwback old school theme to the Heritage Court Arena. One of our walkways walls down to the arena area has a mural that honors eight former/current College or NBA coaches. The first person to email with the names of the coaches on the wall will win two free tickets.

That's pretty cool to do that if you ask me. Well done sir.

[ripemupshocks]

We've heard of it.

Like the contest idea though.

Cool gesture, I already have my tickets but just for the hell of it I tried to find the eight coaches and have ran across only 2-3 photos of the mural that has the coaches on it. I can make out 6 of the coaches from these pictures but I can't make out two of them due to the distance or there being something in the way. Whoever finds this is going to have their work cut out for them. Good luck!

[RussDaBus]

I am at 6 as well. About the just guess the last two.

[cadsev]

Thanks everyone for your interest. Believe it or not we do have a winner who guessed all 8 correctly:

Mike Krzyzewski
Pat Summit
Phil Jackson
Bobby Knight
John Thompson
Dean Smith
John Wooden
Red Auerbach

I'll continue to post questions up until the day of tipoff.

Ok one more question to close out today........

One of our Pentagon staff members has a son/daughter who is a former WSU athlete. For two tickets to the WSU - Memphis game name the former WSU Athlete and the sport they played while at WSU.

There's an obvious one, but the spelling doesn't look right.

Yep, thought the same thing...

[The Mad Hatter]

I've put in my response and I'm pretty sure it is right. I just don't know if I'll be first.
