The daughter of NBA player Harvey Catchings is a Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) All-Star. She is also the creator of a foundation that helps children. It may surprise some people to know Catchings was born partially deaf.1 She says that’s exactly what motivated her to become the star she is today. Meeting the Challenge Because she was hard of hearing, Catchings could not speak well, and she had to wear hearing aids. Her classmates teased her constantly. She would run home from school and hide in her room for hours. “I cried and prayed a lot,” she admits. Catchings spent a lot of time at school playing basketball. She was good at it and she worked hard. She worked hard on her class subjects, too. She began to dream of a career in sports.

  • Kisha Spellman-White the American Basketball Association Announced
    Kisha Spellman-White Years Attended: 1993-96 Area of Study: Athlete Basketball The American Basketball Association announced two new expansion teams for the 2008 season with one right here in Prescott Valley. The ownership group includes Kisha Spellman- White. Kisha played guard/small forward for the Yavapai College Roughriders in 1996, then with the Arizona Sun Devils before embarking on a professional career in Cairns, Australia. For the last six years, she and her mother, Rita White, have been running a successful charter school in Phoenix. A successful businesswoman, she is also the owner of a new behavioral health residential care facility that houses foster children between the ages of 5 and 12 in a home-like setting. Kisha is dedicated to helping others to improve their lives. Kisha Spellman-White, Basketball Player, 1993-96 (Excerpt from an article as published in the Daily Courier, Sept. 6, 2008.) Owner of the ARIZONA RHINOS, Kisha Spellman-White, right, a former player at Yavapai College (1993-96), and head coach Orlando Woolridge met members of the media on Friday at Tim’s Toyota Center. The Arizona Rhinos are in town for their first-ever season. It’s never an easy assignment to be the new team in a minor league. The modern ABA debuted in 1999, sporting the same familiar red, white and blue ball of its older – non-affiliated – brethren of the 70s. Tell us your story at http://www.yc.edu/alumni It’s not the days of Julius Erving and George Gervin. The ABA, in fact, is much more of an extended basketball community than a traditional sports league.

  • 2008 History.Indd
    SPARTAN BASKETBALL HISTORY AND TRADITION 1979 NCAA CHAMPIONS The 1978-79 season was truly a magical one for Coach Jud Heathcote and his Michigan State Spartans. Blending a perfect combination of individual ability, enthu- siasm and teamwork, Heathcote formed a cohesive unit that captivated the nation and sellout crowds at Jenison Field House. The Spartans compiled a 26-6 overall record and went 13-5 in the Big Ten to share the league crown with Purdue and Iowa. State steamrolled through the NCAA Tournament, ending the season on top of the college basketball world with a 75-64 victory over Larry Bird and unbeaten Indi- ana State. The 1978-79 squad gathered at Jenison Field House on Aug. 12, 1989, to play one more game against a team of former Spartan All-Stars. On a hot, sweltering night, the National Champi- onship squad, led by Earvin Johnson’s 25 points and 17 rebounds, topped the All-Stars, 95-93, before a sellout crowd of 10,004. 126 MICHIGAN STATE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2000 NCAA CHAMPIONS Tom Izzo repeatedly talked to his team about leaving its mark on the program. The 1999-2000 Spartans did more than leave their mark; they set the standard by which all future Michigan State teams would be measured. Part of being a champion is winning titles, which the Spartans accomplished in winning the Na- tional Championship, a third straight Big Ten Championship and a second consecutive Big Ten Tourna- ment title. Michigan State’s three consecutive conference crowns marked only the eighth time in league history that a team has won three straight titles.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

  • Downtrodden Yet Determined: Exploring the History Of
    DOWNTRODDEN YET DETERMINED: EXPLORING THE HISTORY OF BLACK MALES IN PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL AND HOW THE PLAYERS ASSOCIATION ADDRESSES THEIR WELFARE A Dissertation by JUSTIN RYAN GARNER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha Brison Paul J. Batista Tommy J. Curry Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore May 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Justin R. Garner ABSTRACT Professional athletes are paid for their labor and it is often believed they have a weaker argument of exploitation. However, labor disputes in professional sports suggest athletes do not always receive fair compensation for their contributions to league and team success. Any professional athlete, regardless of their race, may claim to endure unjust wages relative to their fellow athlete peers, yet Black professional athletes’ history of exploitation inspires greater concerns. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to explore and trace the historical development of basketball in the United States (US) and the critical role Black males played in its growth and commercial development, and 2) to illuminate the perspectives and experiences of Black male professional basketball players concerning the role the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and National Basketball Retired Players Association (NBRPA), collectively considered as the Players Association for this study, played in their welfare and addressing issues of exploitation. While drawing from the conceptual framework of anti-colonial thought, an exploratory case study was employed in which in-depth interviews were conducted with a list of Black male professional basketball players who are members of the Players Association.
