PROVIDENCE — Even with Friday’s dangerous Nor’easter crippling airline travel across America, the Friar family enjoyed nearly perfect attendance for Senior Day.
The team’s four seniors hail from California (Kyron Cartwright), Tennessee (Jalen Lindsey), Virginia (Rodney Bullock) and Chicago (Tom Planek), but everyone’s parents made it to Providence and were able to walk to center court in a time-honored pre-game ceremony on Saturday at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. Lindsey said it was the first time his parents, Walter and Sandra, have attended a home game this season.
“It’s so far and it’s hard for them to get back and forth with work,” Lindsey said.
