Smale The NCAA News Staff In the span of a few months, Antonio Pettigrew went from being the fastest 400-meter runner in Division 11 to the fastest in the world. And yet, George Williams, his coach at St. Augus- tine’s College in Raleigh, North Carolina, says a visitor to campus wouldn’t be able to tell Pettigrew from anyone else on campus. “I was walking across campus recently when I ran into one of our administrators,” Williams said. “He said, ‘Hi Cieorge. Who’s ,this young man with you?’ 1 said, ‘This is Antonio Pettigrew’ He couldn’t believe he didn’t know who Tony was. But success is not going to change this kid.” That is fortunate, because lately, Pcttigrew has enjoyed nothing but success.

  • BCAM August 2014 Monthly Report
    BCAM August 2014 Monthly Report Tom Hursey – Executive Director FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: I just spent the afternoon of July 23rd at Milford HS watching the Girls Reaching Higher. I am always impressed with the way our Reaching Higher program is conducted. Almost 100 girls were educated about the recruiting process, leadership and the right way to play the game. My hat goes off to Rich Moffit, Jaden Clobes, Nate Hampton, Tricia Wieferich (MHSAA) and Amy Heydenburg for all the work that goes into conducting the boys’ and girls’ Reaching Higher. Also a special thanks to the many BCAM members who volunteer their time to coach during this one-day event. Congrats to Greg Mitchell, current boys varsity at Laingsburg HS, who was recently named Head Mens’ Basketball Coach at Hope College. Greg played college ball at Hope and is excited to be returning to his alma mater. BCAM thanks Greg for his time on the BCAM Board. Steve Finamore (East Lansing) will be replacing Greg as Clinic Director. Lansing State Journal columnist ran a column over the last two months in which he chose the top 50 Michigan State basketball players. The criteria included impact and performance at MSU only. Athlete’s professional careers were not considered. Here are his top 10: 1) Earvin “Magic” Johnson (no surprise) – 1977-79 2) Mateen Cleaves – 1997-2000 3) Scott Skiles – 1983-86 4) Steve Smith – 1987-91 5) Shawn Respert – 1990-95 6) Greg Kelser – 1976-79 7) Johnny Green – 1957-59 8) Mike Robinson – 1971-74 9) Jay Vincent – 1977-81 10) Morris Peterson – 1995-2000 For more information on each player go to: http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/gallery?Avis=A3&Dato=20140713&Kategori=GW0201&Lopenr=3 07130065&Ref=PH Another great video that shows how the game should be played – Spurs Session 2: http://youtu.be/tNZvNs6r800 PISTONS ARE BACK.
