August 31, 2012
Starting on Tuesday, WKU fans will be able to re-live the dramatic final weeks of the Toppers’ 2011-2012 men’s basketball season on DVD and Blu-Ray.
“25 Days of Triumph: All-Access with 2011-12 Men’s Basketball from Transition to Tournament Success” will be available at Minit Mart stores, WKU athletic events, Amazon.com and WKUSports.com starting on Tuesday.
The DVD version will cost $19.95, while the Blu-Ray edition will cost $24.95.
The documentary will detail the 25 days between Ray Harper being named permanent head coach on Feb. 19 and WKU’s NCAA Tournament Second Round loss to Kentucky on March 19.
The documentary will chronicle WKU’s seven comeback wins in that stretch, including a 16-point comeback with less than five minutes to play against Mississippi Valley State in the NCAA Tournament First Four.
The documentary will include interviews with players, coaches and other key figures.
Baseball hosting Labor Day Showcase Camp
Matt Myers and his staff will be evaluating hundreds of high school players on Sunday during the annual Labor Day Showcase Camp at Nick Denes Field.
Almost half the current WKU roster attended a Labor Day Showcase camp.
“The Labor Day Showcase has been a very important showcase for us in recruiting,” Myers said in a release. “It gives the kids the chance to be on our field, on our campus and at the same time having us evaluate them.
“It will be an all-day event for our coaching staff, but a very productive day. It is good for the kids coming in, because they get a chance to showcase their abilities in front of our staff.”
