Tonight I will attend my 54th Mayor's Cup game. That is every TU-ORU men's basketball game ever played beginning with the March 1974 game at the Fairgrounds Pavillion. TU's Tim Carson hit the game winner as the Hurricane prevailed 85-84. ORU nearly made it to the final four that season, losing in the regional final to Kansas. In the second game played the following year TU fell behind I think 20-2 but came back to win in Ken Hayes last game at TU. Ironically Hayes coached his last game as ORU coach in a December 1983 loss to TU.
