Announced today are the recipients of the Coach Lapchick Award, including co-recipients Coach K of Duke and Coach Emeritus Kyvallos of Queens College, a pioneer in the ladies game and a final four coach with Queens against Immaculata a number of years back.
The awards will be bestowed on 11/20 at a banquet at the time of the Wounded Warriors Tourney at the Garden, in which Duke will play.
These two stand out coaches will join a legendary group of HoFers and historic contributors to the game who have conducted themselves with the highest levels of sportsmanship and with conduct that was a positive example to all.
It's always a sellout so you might consider going to the Lapchick Award website for location and times and prices as well as getting in on the early table placements.
Coach Gus Alfieri, author of LAPCHICK , SJU grad, and championship point guard in the late 50's, was the initiator of the now famous and uniquely special Lapchick Character Award a decade ago. The award and the presentation dinner have grown in import every year since.
