I hope arrangements can be made so that Mr and Mrs Faw and Mr and Mrs Butler can attend.
It would be nice if the HC athletics video people could record and post this. I think there is zero chance anything will be on ESPN +

Tom, I think you are right on all counts. Would love to see that after all I have seen Austin and Matt give to HC. And, I also doubt that ESPN+ will show any of it.

It makes a lot of sense for the families not to be there. The videos were well done and it was good to see them. There's much to admire about Butler and Faw.

Thanks for posting these videos, hoops. Their quality matches the years of effort by Matt and Austin.

I’ll be at my son’s 5th grade game tomorrow. Seems like we could have found a way to have Matt and Austin’s parents at the Hart this weekend.

It is time to install the digital video displays and a new scoreboard in the arena so that commemorations video clips from family and friends can be shown.
Does anyone have an update regarding when and if this project is still being considered?

Amen-- how about letting those four folks only attend the game? Put the Faws on one side of the court and the Butlers on the other. After all, Marcus Blossom took his life in his hands by attending the last BU game--let the parents do the same.

Their loyalty to staying with the school for 4 years alone should be the reason. Looking at the old roster's. Amazing how many players left. Lets get them a good sendoff with a win! Go Cross Go!

Kind of surprised they would host the huge crowd of commencement indoors in May when some will not have been vaccinated yet. HC maintains Fitton Field like a shrine but only gets to use it five or six times per year. I understand the chance of rain (and meatballs) but it's a shame people have to fight the traffic downtown and HC has to pay a rental fee for an outside facility. Maybe TPTB feel spending money in the community is a way to ward off the PILOT zealots.

As I said a few weeks ago I would hire them tomorrow!
About 8 years ago I received a call from a HC senior looking to start his career in DC. After explaining his interests and why he wanted a role in DC, I explained I get about 1000 resumes a month. Tell me who you are and what are you passionate about? He said I love Holy Cross, and basketball is very special to me.
I asked why and part of his response included his position as a manager for the hoops team. A few questions and answers later, I asked when can you start. He was stunned but accepted. Today he is doing great, growing in his role, a proud husband and father, and to me a great hire.
I am no longer with that drug company, but I am incredibly proud of him and how he has grown- but his roots started in the gym making sure those around him got better every day.
Three times retired I am still looking for those special men and women on my team!

I didn't think the Administration read my posts.
