CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO GET TO FORDHAM ROAD?: While “Can you tell me how to get to Fordham Road” doesn’t have the same ring as “Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street”, members of the Fordham men’s basketball team contributed to the Japanese version of Sesame Street on De- cember 27 following practice. NHK Educational’s English language learning TV pro- gram for children, “Pre-Kiso Eigo” (or “pre-basic English” in direct translation), aims at teaching early English literacy to Japanese children (mainly 5th and 6th graders) who are learning English for the first time. They asked Matt Massimino, Nemanja Zarkovic and Manny Suarez to appear in a segment for tall, taller and tallest and had Bryan Smith and Mandell Thomas appear in a segment on high and higher (with each player jumping as high as they could). The day ended with Chris Sengfelder and Dekeba Battee-Aston arm wrestling to show the children strong and stronger. The pieces are slated to air on the show in May.

Fordham University senior guard Bryan Smith was named a 2015 Allstate NABC and WBCA Good Works Teams® nominee it was announced on December 3. Smith is one of 251 NCAA I, II, II and NAIA men and women basketball student-athletes nominated for the prestigious community service award that recognizes a distinguished group of student-athletes who have demonstrated a com- mitment to enriching the lives of others and contributing to the greater good in their communities. College sports information directors and basketball coaches across the country nominated players who exhibit exceptional leadership skills and an unwavering commitment to volunteerism. From the 158 NABC nominees and 93 WBCA nominees, distinguished voting panels will select two 10-member teams comprised of five student-athletes from the NCAA® Division I level and five student-athletes from NCAA Divisions II, III and the NAIA. The final roster of 20 award recipients will be unveiled in February. “The accomplishments of student-athletes extend far beyond successes achieved on the court, and Allstate is proud to recognize this exceptional group of young men and women for the positive impact they are making in their communities,” said Pam Hollander, vice president of marketing for Allstate Insurance Company and a member of the 2015 NABC and WBCA Good Works Teams® selection panels. “Their stories of powerful and selfless acts, shared by SIDs and coaches across the nation, represent the best of col- legiate student-athletes and serve as an inspiration to us all.” Smith, a 2014-2015 team captain, has been active in numerous community service projects with the men’s basketball program. These projects range from participating in an annual toy drive for a local clinic to running at Katie’s Run, a charity run to benefit The Katie McBride Foundation, to the 2014 Making Strides of Westchester, NY, breast cancer walk. For the third year, the Allstate NABC and WBCA Good Works Teams® help spotlight the off-the-court good works and service to others that often goes unnoticed and unrewarded. From creating organizations benefitting at-risk youth to volunteering overseas to help impoverished communities, there are countless remarkable stories of service among this year’s group of nominees.
