Over the past forty-five years, Friar basketball has captured the
attention of sports fans in Rhode Island and throughout New
England. From humble beginnings, the small Dominican school on
Smith Hill in Providence has produced a story reminiscent of David
and Goliath. The legend persists: tiny Providence College taking on
and beating the big boys of college basketball. Run on a shoestring
budget in the 1950s and 1960s, the program rose up out of nowhere
to pull upset after upset. The school went on to dominate college
basketball in New England, recording more postseason tournament
games and victories, more twenty-win seasons, more All-Americans,
and more players in the pros than any school in the region.
Providence College Basketball: The Friar Legacy examines the
seventy-five-year history of Friar hoops and celebrates the great
players, coaches, games, and moments that have made Providence
College basketball so unforgettable. Relive the annual trips to the
National Invitation Tournament, the two Final Fours, and discover
how Rhode Island became hooked on the Friars.
