I think I remember that back when I was in high school the girls played six on six basketball in a back auxiliary gym (with no bleachers for fans, just a few folding chairs along the perimeter walls) called the "Girls Gym" (yes that's what it was called, of course, this was before Title IX).
I'm sure that Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. will be moseying by shortly to give us all the ancient times details.
I worked with young partner this past season and was telling him a story about a girl's ball being mistakenly used in a boys game back when the size was first changed and he replied, "They once used the same size ball?".
Am I really that old?
