As a historical researcher, one the coolest things that can happen is to start looking into a story, and then have it take twists and turns you didn't expect.

Like what happened when I dug into this tale...

A shot of Marquette's Lower Harbor Park on April 6th, believe it or not, still filled with snow and ice and gloom and despair.

One day, hopefully soon, Marquette will have no snow. Sadly, today is not that day.

Another good SMH concludes. It was a real delight to reconnect with Charlie Gallagher, fellow #Marquette alumnus. We were hooded together in 1998 & haven't seen one another since then. He's now a Jesuit & a full professor at Boston College.

A shot of the sign outside of Marquette's First Presbyterian Church, after we've received a foot of snow with THREE feet expected on Sunday.

I'm starting to think the First Presbyterian Church has a pretty good grasp on what Marquette's winter is like this year.

OK, now #Marquette *really* needs The Thing. Where Rowsey when you need him? #mubb

Text from press release that reads: The Huntington, N.Y. native is the third Marquette player (Dominic James – 2005-06, Henry Ellenson – 2015-16) to earn the accolade since the program joined the BIG EAST in 2005-06.

So, apparently #Marquette can be assured of winning Freshman of the Year every 10 years...

Congrast to Nigel James Jr.!

St. John's Zuby Ejiofor is AP's Big East player of year. Seton Hall's Holloway is coach of the year St. John’s has the Associated Press’ Big East player of the year for a second straight season.

Zuby Ejiofor of St. John's is the AP #BigEast player of the year. Nigel James Jr. of #Marquette is a second-team all-conference selection and the Big East freshman of the year. shorturl.at/Z4G1O

A shot of a drip off of an icicle, a small sign that our 54 straight months of winter may soon be coming to an end.

Look. It's finally melty season here in Marquette!

Hope for next week — and next year!! #mubb

Whiny ass Hurley biatch! Can't stand the guy #Uconn gets whooped by Shaka #Marquette

The #Marquette lead over No. 4 #UConn is up to 55-47 with 7:33 left. UConn's last basket came at the 15:03 mark.

No. 4 #UConn in some trouble. #Marquette has gone on 8-0 run to lead 49-45 with 13:19 left. Royce Parham hit a 3-pointer to put Marquette in front and followed it up with another basket.

It's still a close one early in 2nd half. No. 4 #UConn leads #Marquette 43-41 with 15:39 left. Marquette had briefly tied it earlier in 2nd half.

Halftime in Milwaukee, WI.
#UConn 35 #Marquette 33
So disappointing. Thought the Huskies would play with absolute fire today. A share of the Big East regular season title on the line. That means something.
