Cool!

Bob Brown was one of my first basketball coaches back in the 60's during
summer basketball.  He was Jayvee coach at Cony HS of Augusta (Maine)at
the time, later went on to a stellar career at South Portland HS, then
to BU.  Brett was an outstanding player.  Good luck to him!  Bob must be
pleased as punch...and jealous as all get-out.

Makes me feel old...
