Iwasn’t always obsessed with Ivy League basketball. I didn’t grow up watching any of the teams, nor did I know any of the players. Frankly, until I went to college, I’m not sure I could have named the eight schools in the league. This fascination I developed grew out of my love for basketball. I am one of those hoops junkies who can watch the sport anywhere, anytime. I’ll sit entranced for hours in a sweaty gym while a group of fifthgraders play a game most of their parents would prefer to avoid. Of all the sports I’ve covered through the years, none fascinates me as much as basketball.
