From the time Creighton started playing men’s basketball (1916-1917) through the 1959-1960 season, the Bluejays called the Vinardi Center home. CU went 336-92 in 42 seasons in the on-campus gym, which now stands as home to the basketball practice facility.
We catch up with Creighton men’s basketball players and coaches for interviews at the Vinardi Center during the season.
Tuesday afternoon, Doug McDermott was named the Larry Bird MVC Player of the Year, and Gregory Echenique was named MVC Defensive Player of Year. We talked to both players, as well as Grant Gibbs, Antoine Young and Head Coach Greg McDermott.
