Peter Suder hits ‘night-night’ celly after game-winning 3 for Miami (OH) in OT (0:30)Peter Suder seals Miami (Ohio)’s win in overtime with a go-ahead 3 and does the “night-night” celebration. (0:30)
It’s been a long few years for the DePaul faithful. A current senior at the university would have seen the following men’s basketball seasons: 10-23 (3-17 in Big East play) as a freshman. 3-29 (0-20 Big East) as a sophomore. 14-20 (4-16 Big East) as a junior.
But now, second-year head coach Chris Holtmann seems to have the Blue Demons moving in the right direction. And with student support in the stands matching the team finding some momentum on the court, Holtmann took the opportunity to give back to the student section in a manner most undergraduates can appreciate: free drinks.
“Highest student attendance in the history of Wintrust and one of the largest crowds!!! Thank you!!!” the post started, before getting to the kicker. “First round on me at Kelly’s Pub near campus. See you in 35 min!”
Patrons who found Holtmann discovered that, true to his word, he was indeed making the rounds. Then, hoisting himself onto a bar, he reiterated his commitment over the unsurprising cacophony of a crowded post-win venue.
“If you’re a DePaul student, first round’s on me,” Holtmann hollered, before walking back into the crowd to enjoy the rest of the night.
