Fenerty, 56, who missed a 9-week stretch of school in the fall after having both knees replaced, said his wife, Mary,
stepdaughter, Jessica, and parents, Bud and Mary, were also in attendance.
"Right after the game," he said, "my parents' first words were, 'You should play that kid more often. ' "
At long-struggling Egan, Fenerty went 61-138. In part because future major league handyman Joe McEwing, also an
excellent hoopster, was among his returnees, and he relished the chance to finally enjoy success, he hesitated in jumping
to GA.
"But even the Egan people told me I should take it," he said. "GA has been great to me. Just the wonderful education for
my kids, which I never could have afforded, would have been enough."
Assistant Craig Conlin said of Fenerty, "Jim is a kind and good man and has been a tremendous mentor to me."
D.J. Johnston (12), Joe Hill (12 points, five assists), and Steve Roma (10) scored in double figures for GA. Hill was the
starting point guard with La Salle signee Kyle Griffin battling illness. Roma added eight rebounds. Cameron Ayers mixed
six rebounds, three assists and four steals.
After the feat was announced to the fans, Jimmy presented his father the game ball.
"The whole day was great," he said. "It was even better that I got to be a part of it."
