Morning links: Raveling inducted, a bracket challenge won
One shining moment, indeed. When the book closed on one of the most exciting NCAA tournaments I remember we had two new champions…
There was Duke and there was … me?
That's right, I won the Spokesman-Review's bracket challenge. Unfortunately, I'm ineligible for the grand prize, so congratulations, Rick, on your new gift certificate. Email me at JacobT@Spokesman.com and we'll get it to you.
I still think I should get something for beating 45 of you readers, of course, so the next round is on Vince. Round of golf, that is.
What else happened yesterday? Well, a basketball recruit committed to playing for the Cougars. But more importantly, former WSU and USC coach George Raveling was inducted into the basketball Hall of Fame. Here is a story our own John Blanchette did on Raveling when his induction was announced, and a nice profile of the coach by Trevor Williams for WSU Athletics. I also found this story yesterday about Raveling speaking to some students.
Elsewhere in the Pac-12…
-- The Huskies practiced in the cold yesterday.
-- Is Arizona's basketball team suffering because of a weakened Pac-12?
-- A Cal transfer is set to start at left tackle for the Wildcats.
-- UCLA's Kevon Looney threw his name into the NBA draft discussion.
-- The Utes are trying to figure out how to go even deeper in next year's NCAA tournament.
