Environmental economists win basketball awards

First Annual Faculty/Staff Basketball Awards Lunch
Thursday, January 31, from noon to 1 p.m. at the Mellow Mushroom

As Elected by the Players of Noon-Time Faculty-Staff Basketball Game:

This Award was Created and Agreed Upon by a Select Group of Faculty-Staff Noon-Time Basketball Players:

  • Mr. Unorthodox (Or Least Conventional But Most Successful in the Paint) - Pete Groothuis

A number of other awards were passed out but none were won by environmental economists. Each award winner received a certificate signed by the ASU Chancellor - Kenneth E. Peacock.

Comments:

  • Upon receiving my certificate, I dropped an F-bomb and flipped off the 23 noon-time basketball players in attendance.
  • Upon receiving his certificate, Pete faded right and kissed a pizza crust off the glass window.

Comments

"Player with the Best Attitude" means that you lack the eye of the tiger.
"Mr. Unorthodox" is what I call him at other times too.

JDC: I'll file that little tidbit in the "more than I care to know" section of my brain.
