per Chip:
Richard Pitino hopped in his car Saturday still revved up emotionally after one of the best victories in his tenure as Gophers basketball coach. He drove from Williams Arena to watch his daughter play in her basketball tournament.
He was just a dad in that gym, watching and cheering, still emotional.
"I'm almost brought to tears a little bit because she's running up and down the court with a mask on at 9 years old," he said. "She's got it fully covered, and she's trying to follow all the rules, and it is heartbreaking. It's just heartbreaking for everybody."
Not heartbreaking because of the mask requirement but just everything. All of it.
Go Gophers!!

Pitino's weekend shows joyous, sorrowful soul of hoops in a pandemic
Richard Pitino watched his team play its best game of the season at a largely silent Barn. Then he almost teared up watching his 9-year-old daughter play in her game.
