St. Bonaventure University "is so much more than basketball, but the game, and the Bonnies' storied history, has been the school's gilt-edged calling card. Much of that was threatened as the 2015-16 season approached. Slumping enrollment created a financial crisis. Difficult decisions had to be made. Dropping the athletics program to the small-college level was a possibility.... a chronicle of challenges, soaring performances, high hopes and crushed dreams. It is an account of daring to be great bookended by an existential threat and NCAA big-footers. It is a basketball story, and more." -- Publisher. |
