was made much better by having the luck of sitting next to Nate Lubick and Assistant Coach Hunter.

The pair were coming back from a (very) quick trip to Massachusetts to see Nate's alma mater St. Mark's take on Tilton in the State Championships. Apparently, St. Mark's and Nate's little brother won. Of couse, Hunter was there to see Nerlens Noel and Nate got to go along for the ride. Nate also said that Noel is visiting school next Sunday. He was impressed to learn that we would be going to the entire Big East Tournament. And was gracious to say graduating in 1999 wasn't that long ago. Thanks, Nate. Seriously made my night. Now I have to go repack to leave for NYC tomorrow. Bring it, Hoyas.
