God's favorite basketball team crossed off
Crossed Off
They're God's favorite basketball team … of course nobody wants to play them.
Quote:
For 38 years, the sports arm of the Campus Crusade for Christ has praised the Lord before, during, and after playing preseason games against powerhouse college teams like Duke and Florida. But that's all over now. In a half-baked attempt to stamp out recruiting flim-flammery, the NCAA essentially banned Division I basketball teams from playing noncollegiate preseason opponents like Marathon Oil and Athletes in Action last April. That loss in Tuscaloosa will probably be the last time AIA's Christian soldiers spread the good word in a 15,000-seat arena. Instead of Duke and Florida, AIA now has to schedule lower-division teams like Wingate, Catawba, and Southwest Minnesota State.
