Pitt’s Young Hampered by Knee Injury: Pitt forward Sam Young has been suffering all season from left knee tendonitis, and this past week, the injury grew worse. After Young played 14 minutes in Pitt’s win against Duquesne Wednesday, coach Jamie Dixon said Young did not practice Tuesday and that the knee had flared up again. Dixon and Young seem frustrated by the injury, and Young has refused all media interviews. Dixon has come to the realization that the knee pain is something Young will have to deal with all season.

-Jay Wright, NCAA Championship Men’s Basketball Coach, Villanova University
"At a time in America when we are witnessing an epidemic of opioid addictions and deaths, along with suicides, we need Coach Jarvis' Seven C's of Leadership – grounded in the power of Christ alone where we should all make our stand.”
-Lietenant Colonel Allen B. West (U.S. Army, Retired), Bronze Star recipient, and Member 112th U.S. Congress
