THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN PAGE 2B QUOTE OF THE DAY "What makes something special is not just what you have to gain, but what you feel there is to lose." THURSDAY, MAY 9, 2013 Andre Agassi FACT OF THE DAY Three NBA playoff games this season have gone into overtime. ESPN TRIVIA OF THE DAY Q: How many overtimes have there been in the Hockey playoffs so far? A: Eight THE MORNING BREW This year's sports bring many emotions B because the semester is coming to an end and this is the final brew, I reflect on what has happened in I reflect on what has happened in sports so far in 2013. Inspiration to tragedy, heartbreak to success, we have seen it all. In just five months, the sports world has encountered plenty of events and stories that have encompassed the media tremendously. It's hard to cover everything that's happened, but these are the most notorious stories that have taken place. Starting off on a light note, there have been quite a few inspirational stories that have stolen our hearts and made us grab the tissues. Another great story comes from El Paso, Texas. Coach Peter Morales of Coronado High School decided to play his team manager, Mitchell Marcus, who has a developmental disability, in their final basketball game of the season against the school's rivals, Franklin High School. Mitchell entered the game, and with every chance, his teammates passed the ball to him, hoping he would make one shot. As time was ticking down, he kept missing. After a few tries, Jonathon Montanez of Franklin was about to pass the ball inbounded to his teammate when he decided to show true sportsmanship and passed it We'll start off with the story of Jack Hoffman, the 7-year-old brain cancer patient who lived his dream by scoring a touchdown for the Nebraska Cornhuskers during their spring game. Befriended by running back Rex Burkhead, Jack was given the honor of running for 69 yards into the end zone in one play, followed by a lift into the air by the Nebraska football team with the crowd standing and cheering him on. to Mitchell who then scored his first and only basket ever. The game ended, and both teams celebrated the moment. This story spread nation-wide and the American public was able to see how moving this act of kindness was. Along with the positives, there are always some negatives. Along with the heartbreak came tragedy. Heartbreak was definitely felt around the country, including here at the University. We felt it when both our men's and women's basketball teams were defeated in the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA tournament. It was even more painful when Trey Burke hit that game-tying three. In the end, the powerful Louisville Cardinals won the men's tournament, motivated by the horrific injury of Kevin Ware. No one will be able to ever forget about the bombings at the Boston Marathon. Three spectators were killed and more than 260 people were injured. Two days later, a university police officer was ambushed and killed during the manhunt for the two suspects. Lots of emotions and cautions came from this terrible event. The suspects have been found. One of the suspects was killed and the other one is in custody along with one of their friends. Through the tragedy, people have come together and prayed for the city of Boston. Many other stories have occurred: the questions that have surrounded the Los Angeles Lakers, baseball season being in swing, an Australian winning the Masters, the not-so-exciting NFL Draft, and plenty of others. Basketball and Hockey playoffs are taking place right now, and both have been exciting to watch. As I conclude the last brew, I wish everybody luck on their finals and have a great summer.
