Steve Robinson proud of alma mater

Posted Mar 19, 2009
UNC assistant coach Steve Robinson was one of the first three basketball players to receive a scholarship at Radford, in 1979. That makes seeing his alma mater earn its second NCAA Tournament berth -- even though it plays his top-seeded Tar Heels today -- special for Robinson. "The dream was to someday have a team that could compete on the Division I level,'' Robinson said. "To see that happen is a pretty neat deal." (Raleigh News & Observer)
