Message: [QUOTE="MyDorona, post: 4966823, member: 9397"] Growing up in Connecticut in the 80s they were always “background noise” to me as I was primarily a baseball fan, but the first season I really got into the Huskies was that 93-94 team, with all-world Donyell and the two great freshmen, Ray and Doron. Huskymania swept the state that year. I still remember my seventh grade teacher wheeling in a television so the class could watch the first round tournament game against Rider! And of course, later on in the tourney I was heartbroken as Donyell missed the free throws. Ray Allen was my favorite player, and I kept a spiral notebook with clipped photos of Ray from the Waterbury Republican-American, as well as a game log. Before the internet, that was the only way to chart how a player’s season went, as the newspapers would only post cumulative or average stats. I wish I still had that notebook, as I heard he turned out to be a pretty good player. [/QUOTE]
