I seem to recall that we went 1-1 against BC that year, with a win at home and a loss down there. Ron outplayed Driscoll in the win. And of course you're right about it being Donohue . . . Alzheimer's, I guess . . .

I have business dealings with Driscoll's younger brother on a regualr basis. Driscoll played in the NBA for something like 3 years and is now the athletic director at William and Mary. His brother is a senior executive with a large national insurance company and another BC grad which we raze each other about the old rivalry all the time.
Ron T. had all the potential in the world on the BB court and it was such a shame that he and Jack D. couldn't see eye to eye.
I'm sure you're right on the split my friend....old Roberts Center was rarely kind to either the varsity or the frosh. That place was always cramped and HOT....don't know how they squeezed 4,200 in there.
Was it only BC we ( frosh & varsity ) we played twice in the regular season ? I believe so but am thinking maybe the frosh played PC & Uconn twice as well.
