  • Jason Collier to Be Inducted Into Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame
    May 1, 2018 Contact: Sheila Fox, Executive Director (614) 333-8232 [email protected] Jason Collier to be inducted into Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame COLUMBUS, OH — Jason Collier will be inducted into the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame for his achievements in basketball. He will be honored at the 13th Annual Induction Ceremony on Saturday, May 5, 2018, at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Columbus. Jason Collier was wooed by many major colleges after leading Springfield Catholic Central to the 1996 Ohio Division IV state championship and being named Ohio Player of the Year. Among them were: Cincinnati, Dayton, Duke, Georgia Tech, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Notre Dame and Wisconsin. The 7-foot center scored 1,761 points and grabbed 1,068 rebounds for the Irish and was selected on the Parade Magazine All-America second team. He played at Indiana University before transferring after nine games of his sophomore year to Georgia Tech. Twice named to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference second team, he was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2000 NBA draft and was traded immediately to the Houston Rockets for whom he played three seasons. He started 44 games for Atlanta in 2004-05 and was about to begin his sixth professional season on Oct. 15, 2005, when he died in Cumming, Georgia, of a “sudden heart rhythm disturbance” caused by an enlarged heart. The NBA's D- League named their Sportsmanship Award after Jason after his death and the Atlanta Hawks invite Jason's parents to Atlanta every year to present the Jason Collier Award, given to the player that does the most for the community.

SOFT POWER PLAYED ON THE HARDWOOD United States Diplomacy through Basketball by Joseph B. Eyen Dr. Nigel Boyle, Political Studies, Pitzer College Dr. Geoffrey Herrera, Political Studies, Pitzer College A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors in Political Studies Pitzer College Claremont, California 4 May 2015 2 ABSTRACT This thesis demonstrates the importance of basketball as a form of soft power and a diplomatic asset to better achieve American foreign policy, which is defined and referred to as basketball diplomacy. Basketball diplomacy is also a lens to observe the evolution of American power from 1893 through present day. Basketball connects and permeates foreign cultures and effectively disseminates American influence unlike any other form of soft power, which is most powerfully illustrated by the United States’ basketball relationship with China. American basketball diplomacy will become stronger and connect with more countries with greater influence, and exist without relevant competition, until the likely rise of China in the indefinite future.

  • For Release, December 16, 1998 Contact
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Julie Mason (412-496-3196) GATORADE® NATIONAL BOYS BASKETBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR: BRANDON KNIGHT Former Miami Heat Center and Gatorade Boys Basketball Player of the Year Alonzo Mourning Surprises Standout with Elite Honor FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (March 23, 2010) – In its 25th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company, in collaboration with ESPN RISE, today announced Brandon Knight of Pine Crest School (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) as its 2009-10 Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Knight was surprised with the news during his second period class at Pine Crest School by former Miami Heat Center Alonzo Mourning, who earned Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year honors in 1987-88. “When I received this award in 1988, it was a really significant moment for me, so it felt great to surprise Brandon with the news and invite him into one of the most prestigious legacy programs in high school sports,” said Mourning, a Gold Medalist, seven-time NBA All-Star, and two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year. “Gatorade has been on the sidelines fueling athletic performance for years, so to be recognized by a brand that understands the game and truly helps athletes perform is a huge honor for these kids.” Knight becomes the first-ever student athlete from the state of Florida to repeat as Gatorade National Player of the Year in any sport. He joins 2009 NBA MVP LeBron James (2002-03 & 2001-02, St. Vincent-St. Mary, Akron, Ohio) and 2007 NBA Draft Number One Overall Pick Greg Oden (2005-06 & 2004-05, Lawrence North, Indianapolis, Ind.) as the only student-athletes to win Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year honors in consecutive seasons.
