Getting your player ready...
His college basketball career apparently over, 73-year-old Ken Mink says he accomplished what he set out to do. Mink played about 15 minutes in seven games this season for Roane State, scoring five points. “For a 73-year-old guy, I felt I played very well and very competitively,” he said. But his season was cut short by four games after being notified last week that the National Junior College Athletics Association had ruled him ineligible to play. “I reached my goals,” Mink said. “I’ve been able to show that age is not necessarily the determinant factor in what you can do in life.” The Associated Press; Associated Press file photo
