In MIRACLES ON THE HARDWOOD, author John Gasaway traces the rise of
Catholic college basketball - from its early days (Villanova made
an appearance in the Final Four in the first NCAA tournament in
1939) to the dominance of the San Franciso Dons in the 1950s and
the ascendance of powerhouses Georgetown, Villanova, and
Gonzaga-through their decades-long rivalries and championship
games. Featuring interviews with notable coaches, players, alums,
and fans -- including Loyola Chicago's most famous and dedicated
fan, 99-year-old Sister Jean -- to get at the heart of what makes
these universities excel at this sport. Small in number but devout
in the game's spirit, these teams have made the miraculous a matter
of ritual, and their greatest works may be yet to come.
