[NU Sports] Happy Thought for the Day

[Jim Bendat]

Joe's writing about "scoring defense" caused me to remember a stat from 
my NU days.  In 1970, our basketball team finished 0-14 in the Big Ten.  
Yet, our Sports Information Office made sure that the public was aware 
that we led the Big Ten in "Free Throw Defense" !!!!  No, I am not 
making that one up.
