In this week’s edition of “Conversations with Clayton,” I chat with sports journalist and author Jon Hart. Hart is best known for his book Man versus Ball: One Ordinary Guy and His Extraordinary Sports Adventures (2013), a humorous account of his life in sports. Hart publishes widely as a sportswriter, feature writer, and poet.
His recent poem “Sorrentine From the Parking Lot” is fantastic. It really brings one back to the time and place of the University of Vermont’s 2005 upset of Syracuse in the NCAA Tournament.
You can check out his work at his personal website or his pair of Twitter feeds: @ManVersusBall and @Hairology30.
