But once a year, generally while the Holy Cross basketball team is playing somebody like the Lehigh Mountain Hawks of former UNCG assistant Billy Taylor in rural Pennsylvania, The Centrum is vacant and the one-ringed bovine circus takes over.Now we don't like to nit-pick. But A) HC does not play its home games in the Centrum and B) Lehigh is hardly a rural school. In fact, the biggest newspaper covering the Mountain Hawks, the Allentown Morning Call, sells almost 50,000 more papers than the Greensboro News-Record.
