Two weeks ago tonight in Davidson, North Carolina, just over a mile from the court Steph Curry once roamed, Davidson Day School honored its five high school basketball seniors in the regular season home finale in Yates Gymnasium. The parents of the five graduating players proudly walked their sons out to mid-court during a pregame ceremony as classmates and fans watched on with applause.
It was a nice farewell to the five parting Patriots, one those young men will remember forever. But if Davidson Day could do it all over again, I think it would have scheduled a different opponent for the basketball game that followed its Senior Night festivities.
