A battle to get back to his for- mer self and to return as an inte- gral part of the Western Kentucky basketball team. A redshirt junior, Dickerson said he’s now as healthy as he’s been since his freshman year. “I feel good,” he said. “I feel confident right now. Everybody’s getting me open looks, and I have confidence to knock down shots. It’s been awhile.” Dickerson tried to manage a left shoulder injury at the start of last season, his true junior cam- paign. But after four games and miss- ing 15 of his 17 shot attempts, Dickerson and then coach Ken McDonald decided it would be best for the Argyle, Texas, prod- uct to have surgery on a torn labrum in his left shoulder.

  • Cardinal Tradition Louisville Basketball
    Cardinal Tradition Louisville Basketball Louisville Basketball Tradition asketball is special to Kentuckians. The sport B permeates everyday life from offices to farm- lands, from coal mines to neighborhood drug stores. It is more than just a sport played in the cold winter months. It is a source of pride filled year-round with anticipation, hope and celebration. Kentuckians love their basketball, and the tradition-rich University of Louisville program has supplied its fans with one of the nation’s finest products for decades. Legendary coach Bernard “Peck” Hickman, a Basketball Hall of Fame nominee, arrived on the UofL campus in 1944 to begin a remarkable string of 46 consecutive winning seasons. For 23 seasons, Hickman laid an impressive foundation for UofL. John Dromo, an assistant coach under Hickman for 19 years, continued the Louisville program in outstanding fashion following Hickman’s retirement.
