Syracuse retires Gerry McNamara’s and Hakim Warrick’s jerseys, celebrates 20th anniversary of 2003 National Championship

As part of the jersey retirements of Gerry McNamara and Hakim Warrick, the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball program celebrated the 20th anniversary of the 2003 National Championship team over the weekend.

What began with a streaming of the 2003 National Championship game with fans on Friday night, members of the 2003 team traveled back to Central New York to celebrate the anniversary of its title as well as two members in particular of the most storied team in program history. To members of the ‘03 team, it felt just like old times. McNamara, who didn’t have to travel far, would go on to say the reunion on Friday was one of the most memorable nights of his life.
