Here are some key buckets by junior swingman Joshua Annan in a third quarter run during Friday’s MPH victory over Lafayette. The final score was 65-61.
The sound clip is from one of our all-time favorite Syracuse artists, Seth Marcel. We first heard this song on the television show Entourage.
Scott Dennis, prescription vocalist
SAMMY-Award nominated vocalist Scott Dennis wrapped his dream-like vocals around the Great American Songbook at the Sitrus Lounge last night (University Sheraton). He was backed by the rhythmic triumvirate of Solazzo, Johns and Solazzo.
Their album “Close Your Eyes” was produced by Nancy Kelly.
Dr. Umar Johnson, author, educator and descendant of Frederick Douglass
Dr. Umar will speak at the Frank E. Merriweather Library in Buffalo this afternoon, and on Sunday in Virginia Beach.
Tavis Smiley, Author, Radio/TV host (circa 2005) in Washington, DC
If you enjoyed the film “Selma,” which paints an intimate portrait of the coalitions and strategies of the Civil Rights Movement, we suggest you move next to “Death of a King” by Tavis Smiley. His book gives a revealing look at the last year of Dr. King’s life (the good, the bad and the unforeseen).
Smiley is pictured here in Washington, DC in 2005.

Singer-song writer Lydia Caesar brought the crowd to its feet at CFAC
We’re not sure if the bass was too strong or it was the profound timbre of Lydia Caesar’s voice that caused The Community Folk Art Center to tremble on Friday. Her performance, which was co-sponsored by WAER-FM 88, was the official kick-off for Syracuse University’s Black History Month festivities. The Queens, NY-native showed her range by singing a slow-moving musical love letter she calls “St. Louis,” then moved further into the set with the bouncy “Lottery.” She also sang several covers.
The crowd seemed to appreciate her repertoire and showered her with praise.
Caesar was backed up for the visit by Syracuse’s Brownskin band.
Lydia’s new single “Through it all” will be released Feb. 10.
Henninger point guard Romero Collier (4) blows by Jordan Roland in yesterday’s game versus Westhill.
There can only be one number one team.
Henninger took control of Saturday’s highly-anticipated Section III battle with Westhill early using hustle plays and rebounding. They reduced the Westhill dyamic duo of Roland and Reynolds to a solo show by Roland (who finished with 31). The final score was 59-48.
The game was held at Onondaga Community College (OCC).
Jordan Roland hits a three-pointer in the first half. He finished with a game-high 31 points.
Keisean Scott gets a put back in the third quarter.
Henninger’s Shaitique Blatche carves out some space in the post during the first half. He finished with 17 points.
