On the road...

Fr Ralph: Has two good sides for TV

...with the ND Men's Basketball team. Fr. Ralph recently traveled with the team to Boston for its game against Boston College. After a slow start, the Irish found their rhythm and went on a twelve point run against the Eagles. Later, the Irish went to take a commanding 28 point lead, eventually winning the game 82 to 54. On the win, Fr. Ralph said, "It's was all about fundamentals, and when the turnpike was backed up, we used the expressway. When they threw skittles, we had rice crispy treats. Like I said earlier... it's all about fundamentals."

Still, the Steds family was present at the BC game with Jon McCallie '10 and Matt Verhamme '10 in the stands. On seeing Fr. Ralph on the bench at BC, Verhamme said, "I wasn't surprised since he IS the chaplain with the best win record on the road, AND he's all about the fundamentals of the game."

 
Stedsmen everywhere, even at BC!
