Al has done a great job. Basketball has never been too high on the totem pole in Chestnut Hill, but he has really brought it out there to the spotlight.

I really like the way he sees the court and finds the open man.

He transcended the game. People came to see him as much as they came to see the game.

He literally carried the league.

I think Allen is remarkable to watch. I can't get over how he keeps throwing his body into bigger guys, crashing to the floor and just getting right back up.

A lot of areas have golf tournaments for good causes, ... but this one is special to me.
