Greg Hansen The Star's longtime columnist checks in with his memories of the Duke-Arizona rivalry, Daniel Susac's chances of making the big leagues, the Pima County Sports Hall of Fame's newest members and Dave Heeke's latest honor:
In a late December 1987 game at McKale Center, won 91-85 by Arizona, the Wildcats attempted 42 free throws, Duke 14. Krzyzewski, who was assessed a technical foul by Pac-10 referee Booker Turner, famously told Sports Illustrated that"everyone in that arena was on a first-name basis with the officials."In a February 1990 rematch in Cameron Indoor Stadium, won 78-76 by Duke, Krzyzewski threw a memorable fit at halftime and was assessed a technical foul. It worked.
But he mostly stayed away from the Pac-12; Duke played UCLA in a series in 1996, 1997 and 1998, with two games in Los Angeles, but thereafter didn’t touch a Pac-12 opponent unless it was on a neutral court or in Durham. MLB Draft continues to be a crapshootArizona catcher Daniel Susac last week became the 14th ballplayer from Tucson or the UA to become a first-round pick in the modern June draft, 1980-2022. Susac was selected No. 19 overall by the Oakland A’s.Of that group of first-rounders, only lefty pitcher Joe Magrane, the 18th overall selection in 1985, and outfielder Terry Francona, the 22nd selection in 1980, played more than five years in the big leagues and were full-time contributors.
Scouting and judging baseball prospects is incredibly difficult. The most prolific Tucsonans/Wildcats in baseball were not close to first-round picks. Most early indications are that Susac has the right stuff for a productive MLB career, but check back in five years. Plenty of Tucson ties in PortlandThe NBA’s Portland Trail Blazers have a distinct Tucson feel to their organization. Catalina Foothills High School grad Matt Brase is an assistant coach and UA grad Mike Schmitz, who used to be a writer for the Daily Wildcat, was hired last month as Portland’s assistant general manager. Schmitz will be used to evaluate talent both in America and internationally.
