  • Congratulations to Jerry Verwey '58

Life Time Achievement Award for Jerry Verwey on December 28, at Carthage College!

Former Bradford counselor and coach, Jerry Verwey will be receiving a Lifetime Coaching award on Sat. Dec. 28 at the Winter basketball tournament that will be held at Carthage College. He will be honored at 5 pm, shortly before the 6 pm game between St. Catherine’s HS, where Jerry played while in high school, and Bradford HS, where he coached. So he is particularly thrilled at the matchup. Tickets are available at Carthage College for the game.

An after-game reception from 8 to 10 pm will be held at Casa Capri, 2129 Birch Rd. The Verwey family welcomes friends, colleagues, and Jerry’s former players to join the celebration and have some “chalk talk with Coach Verwey”.


•  How GREAT is THIS................

In his FIRST start at Wisconsin — Kamari McGee '21 logged a career-HIGH 15 points, 5 rebounds, 3 steals, and shot 3-for-4 from the three.
