Title: Mike Kinsella

Nice little article in today’s local paper.  I hadn’t heard that he was battling testicular cancer - glad he seems to be OK for now.

I will always have great memories of that Pitt game on Senior Night when he nearly blew the roof off the BC with back to back 3s.  If that third one had dropped, it might have gotten even louder than Steve’s game-winner against ND.

Be well, big fella!

Kinsella changed the home game against G-town in 2006 when Crean brought him in to defend Hibbert. Great adjustment by TC.

great to hear he is a survivor-would have loved to have seen one more year out of him.  when i saw him pumping up 3's during warm-ups, i almost soiled myself.  then the game-happy as hell for him!
