Probably some artistic license on my Siena friend's part...his vison may have been blurred by the tears...but he did mention dunks.

I was the manager of the UNH team that beat Siena that year...and we almost beat Niagara but lost 62-59, yes I still remember the score. Derek Counts was a good friend of mine who I have not spoken with in probably 15 years. Derek was 5'10 "maybe" quick, quick, quick, problem was no one could run with him, he was a high school phenom in Maine and he had no supporting cast, our center was Patrick Ewing's high school back up, so he didn't see a lot of time. I will never forget beating Siena, we were 4-24 and they were 24-3 I believe...anyway, good nostalgia...
