McNamara Honored By Coaches vs. Cancer
Share:
Gerry McNamara, one of the most popular figures in Syracuse men's basketball history, was honored with the Coaches vs. Cancer Inspiration Award on Sept. 20 at the Albany Capital Center.
McNamara has been an active participant in Coaches vs. Cancer events dating back to his time as an undergraduate at Syracuse. Coach Jim Boeheim, one of the most prolific Coaches vs. Cancer fundraisers over the years, has included student-athletes in activities, including the annual "Basket Ball," which was originally designed to benefit the organization. Since returning to the Syracuse program as an assistant coach, McNamara has continued to give his time to the fight against cancer.
