We're thrilled to announce the first-place winner of the 2024 Bennett-Tinsley Student Paper Award, Abigail Gratzol. A recent graduate of the University of Indianapolis, Gratzol’s paper challenges traditional narratives about the Trail of Death by examining Potawatomi survivance.

Love that this was posted! Mr. DeJernett is a large reason the legendary Ray Crowe decided to matriculate @uindy. This legacy of pioneering @uindy sports in the 1930s is understudied, despite the efforts of colleagues such as @LSondhaus and students such as @liz_alsot.
Ben Davis High School@BenDavisHS

David DeJernett became the first Black person to win a high school basketball championship when the Washington Hatchets won the @IHSAA1 State title in 1930. He played at @uindy and also professionally. He also was a veteran of World War II. #BlackHistoryMonth

This @davidaldridgedc is getting just praise for helping to retell a story that far too many have ignored. One of the through lines of the story is the Crowe family, Ray and George, both of whom attended Indiana Central (now @uindy), as did Mr. Robertson's brother, Bailey.
David Aldridge@davidaldridgedc

ICYMI: Was honored to speak with and chronicle the basketball life of the great Oscar Robertson, who put Indianapolis basketball on the map almost 70 years ago, and who is being honored in this city as it hosts the NBA's All-Star Weekend. In @TheAthletic: bit.ly/3SMRXXA

Did you know that @Pacers owner Herb Simon could make it rain? TBT to 1984; he joined Mayor Hudnut, @ClarkKelloggCBS, & Jerry Sichting at Firehouse #5 in Indy. Mr. Simon is currently the longest current serving owner in the @NBA. Original @ bit.ly/4bEeQoZ
