Rhode Island Senate to Honor Kevin Stacom, Joe Hassett and Tracy Lis

The AP reported yesterday that the Rhode Island Senate “will consider a resolution Tuesday honoring Kevin Stacom, Joe Hassett and Tracy Lis.” The resolution will be sponsored by Senate President Teresa Paiva Weed who is a member of the PC Class of 1981.

To read the AP story, click here.

Stacom, Hassett and Lis had their jerseys retired on January 25th, 2014. I think this is probably a good time to point you to one of the best pieces I’ve read in a long time in regard to PC basketball. It’s no surprise that it comes from Craig Belhumeur at FriarBasketball.com. It was posted on January 24th, 2014 and you may have read it back then, but I urge you to click the link below because it’s an absolutely fantastic read, especially for the offseason.

Joe Hassett – Providence’s Finest
