I would like to congratulate the Amherst College men's basketball team for a wonderful and exciting basketball season. I have enjoyed this season more than any other previous season. The victories against Williams, in the NESCAC Tournament, and in the rounds of 16 and eight in the Div. III Tournament were most satisfying. Amherst College basketball paid some heavy dues at the Div. III Final Four in Salem, VA against some local clubs. Poetic justice would afford a pleasant opportunity if Amherst could return to the Final Four next year and benefit from the harsh education received this year. I know I speak for all the alumni seated behind the Amherst bench, we all look forward to the 2006-07 season and the continuing success of a fine program. And to the fine, young gentlemen who will be the 2006-07 basketball team, I say, success next March begins this June. Crosstrain! Terras Irradient,
