Senior Night

[Rosewood]

It's too bad Cox 22 (or somebody) can't broadcast the festivities for those of us who can't attend. Or maybe there's some sort of league/ncaa/espn restriction on that?

I should do a Periscope

I'm officially declaring Saturday (even though I can't get tickets due to costs) as *Stand Up For The Senior Shockers Night*.

If any senior is on the floor everyone in the place must stand and be loud. If not, then the fan better have a medical reason or be escorted out and replaced with a loud fan who couldn't get tickets.

Any my opinion/order is the only one that matters! Darn it!

Please advertise this on all social media sites. Thanks. ;)

I doubt I'll be able to sit down. I want it to be a shocker route but I still will be standing with a 40 point lead and 7 minutes to go.

A little off topic but I went to Jale Whites senior night. He had a good game. Once a Shocker Always a Shocker. It was an ugly game UNO won 102-98. Not a HCGM defensive game. I attached a photo of Jake and his family.

Thanks for the pic. Yes, he had 18 points on 7-12 FG and 2-2 from 3 with 7 rebounds.

For the season, 17.4 ppg, 6.3 rpg, .806 FT% (125-155), .574 FG% (189-329), and...ready for this... .513 % from 3 (20-39).

Here's a really nice article from local Washington, DC, news radio station WTOP about Senior Night and the special trio of Fred, Ron and Evan. Thought you guys might like to see the love these guys are getting on the east coast. Couldn't find the Media Love thread and thought it fit here. All the same, nice read. I particularly like 3G's quote regarding the boys:

“They’re icons,” Marshall said. “They’re bigger than south-central Kansas. They’re college basketball icons. They’ve helped put this program on the map and remained relevant for quite a long while."

None of this is surprising, at least to me. You could see there was a heck of a player. Just not sure it was the perfect fit at WSU.

I hope they let him draw just 1 charge on his senior night. Poor guy.

It's very special to see the true affection and admiration these guys have earned from our city. This is undoubtedly due, in part, to the fact that we have watched them play and grow into outstanding teammates and exemplary young men over the last four (or five) years. Fans of the one-and-done programs are truly missing a wonderful part of college basketball.

Rixtoy and I had the pleasure of meeting Jake and his father in Colorado Springs before the Shox played AF. Nice young man and his father. I thought Rix and I had a long drive and turn around but his father made the drive from Wisconsin? by himself. At least Rix talked the whole way to keep me alert.

Note that this says they retired Carr's jersey following his last game -- meaning, I think, the night of his final home game.

[ShockerFever]

It'd be cool if they just got the job done with the two tomorrow, but I just never ever get real confident with how this athletic department handles things. It should be something beyond way-over-the-top but they'll somehow waste the opportunity and make it very plain.

I hope to be proven wrong but I'm not holding my breath.

What an emotional day this is going to be. What Fred, Ron and Evan have done for Shocker's basketball is beyond words. They are just such a special group. Shocker fans have been so lucky to have them. I'm getting all emotional just trying to write this. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Fred, Ron and Evan!!!!! The Shocker nation will never forget you.

Warren (Armstrong) Jabali — Feb. 26, 1968 vs. Loyola

Armstrong turned in a typically all-around dominant game in a 95-88 win in front of 10,105 fans.

He scored 19 points, grabbed 19 rebounds and handed out 12 assists.

........ not bad for a 6-2 guy .......

I feel kinda bad for Bush Wamukota. Not only for the way his career has panned out, but he's barely even a footnote in this upcoming event. You could not have more contrasting careers when they highlight Ron and Fred - and a lesser extent Evan, and then we have Bush Wamukota.
