NOVEMBER 29Volume 1Issue 13

MEN’S HOOPS - 1991DePaul played its first ever confer-ence game and christened the Great Midwestern Conference with 92-89 win against Memphis at the Pyramid. The 1991-1992 Blue Demons raced to a 20-9 record and the NCAA tour-nament appearance under Coach Joey Meyer. Blue Demons were led by forwards David Booth and Stephen How-ard. Howard excelled as much off the court as he did on that season, repeating as an Academic All-American, the first in the program’s history. His career statistics weren’t too shabby either as he ranks 6th all-time in scoring (1,691) and 5th all time in rebounding (883). Howard is also the school’s all-time leader in free throws made and maybe most impressive, he has played the most games in program history as well.

WOMEN’S HOOPS - 2001Lenae Williams led five play-ers in double-figures with a game-high 25 points as DePaul held off Loyola, 80-72, at the Gentile Center on Thursday November 29. Williams’ bid for her first ca-reer double-double came up short as she grabbed nine rebounds to lead the Blue Demons. DePaul had to finish the game with just five players as two of the seven available fouled out late in the game. In addition to just missing her first career double-double, Williams tied a career high with six assists. Sarah Kustok scored 11 points and grabbed eight rebounds while Jamie Smith had 12 points, seven boards and three blocked shots. Others in double-figures were Jenni Dant with 13 and Laura Sobieszczyk with 11 points.

WELCOME TO HOOPLA - STAY INFORMED!Today, marks the beginning of a new initiative to keep Blue Demon fans, alumni and friends in touch with DePaul basketball.

DOUG BRUNO

How long have you been involved or how did you get involved in DePauAthletics?I have been involved with DePaul Athletics since 1968 when I started at DePaul as a member of the Men's Basketball Program. My dad began bringing me to DePaul Men's Basket-ball Games in 1959 when I was nine years old. My high school coach, Dick Flaiz, played for Coach Ray Meyer and brought me to games. I got involved with DePaul Athletics because Coach Ray Meyer offered me a scholarship to play basketball here at DePaul University. I would never have had the chance to attend DePaul without Coach Ray Meyer.

Why do you choose to give to DePaul Athletics?We give to DePaul because everything I have ever been able to achieve in life has been the direct result of having been blessed to have been able to attend DePaul University. My attendance at DePaul exposed me to so many great people in the Athletic Department, DePaul's Faculty, and DePaul's staff. Coach Ray Meyer, Coach Frank McGrath, Gene Sullivan, Fr. Ed Riley, Dr's Patricia Ewers and Hugh Ingrasci, just to name a few, are some of the great people who influenced me when I was a student at DePaul.

How does DePaul represent your values?DePaul is a People Place. DePaul is about Service Leadership. I would like to think that I work hard to be good to people and good for people. I would like to also think that I embrace the concept of Leadership through Service.

What is your favorite DePaul Athletics moment?There are so many. Every time I watch any DePaul Athlete in any sport they GIVE IT THEIR ABSOLUTE ALL AND LEAVE IT ALL ON THE FIELD/THE COURT/THE TRACK/THE COURSE. Driving in a Cab on The Grand Concourse up in The Bronx, New York on a March Saturday in 1979 and getting out of the cab to watch Coach Ray and our Men's Basketball Team on a storefront TV screen BEAT UCLA to go to The 1979 Final Four was special. The day my Mom and Dad dropped me off at the corner of Webster and Fremont in September of 1968 was special.

Who is your all-time favorite Blue Demon student-athlete?Every DePaul Women's Basketball Team I have ever coached in the year that I was coach-ing them. The 1978 DePaul Men's Basketball Team of Dave Corzine, Joe Ponsetto, Randy Ramsey, Curtis Watkins, and Gary Garland with Clyde Bradshaw and William Dise coming off the bench was a special team that played basketball so competitively and so selflessly. That team made it to The Elite Eight and set the table for DePaul Basketball to again RETURN TO GLORY!
