Overall it was a very positive experience for our basketball team and university."

- Tommy Dempsey, Head Coach, Rider University

The fact we were able to host a game against a program with the stature of Kent State, who had 10 consecutive 20-win seasons and been to numerous NCAA and NIT tournaments, and to get a win was really a step in the right direction for the program. CollegeInsider.com has been doing great things for college basketball for years and this is just another example of their commitment to recognize deserving programs. “

- Bo Ryan, Head Coach, University of Wisconsin
