Dear Student Athlete…

Ben Hively posed with Herd men’s basketball player Jannson Williams after a basketball game at the Cam Henderson Center.

Recently, my 6-year-old Ben and I attended our first Marshall basketball game. Well actually, it was our first basketball game ever.

My son had the time of his life. He met his favorite player and decided that he wants to pursue basketball.

My son who hates crowds, unknown situations and chaos was standing on the sidelines watching the team practice. He yelled, more like boo-ed, with the crowd at bad calls and screamed out of excitement when the team scored.
