From the last-second heroics of Wilmeth Sidat-Singh in Archbold
Stadium to the last-second heroics of Donovan McNabb in the Carrier
Dome more than a half century later, this book is a chronicle of
the rich tradition of Syracuse University sports. There are games
that stand the test of time - performances that years, even decades
later bring a smile or in some cases a grimace, to a fan's face.
They are indelible moments that, when strung together, give you a
sense of a college's history. In ""Slices of Orange"", Sal Maiorana
and Scott Pitoniak recapture the heroics of running back Jim
Brown's 43-point performance against Colgate at old Archbold
Stadium; the pain of Keith Smart's jumper that denied Syracuse a
national title in 1987; and the joy of forward Carmelo Anthony's
levitation act in the 2003 NCAA basketball championship game. They
tell of the fierce SU-Georgetown basketball rivalry - and John
Thompson's incendiary comments that ignited it - and how the Gait
brothers, Paul and Gary, revolutionized the game of lacrosse and
laid the foundation for a college sports dynasty.
