Reviews

[Charles M.]

This book was written by popular ProJo columnist in cooridnation with the Internatl. Institute of Sports at URI. Very sparse on detail, as it reads like one of Reynolds' columns. Leaves out major high school contributions and all those 60s-70s RIC teams which often found themselves among the national small college elite. Interesting that out of all the significant New England players, URI's Ernie "The Shot Heard Around the World" Caverly is pictured on cover.
