The BIG EAST Conference Honors The Black Fives
For the fifth consecutive season, the BIG EAST Conference will partner with the Black Fives Foundation, a nonprofit public charity dedicated to inspiring excellence in youth by preserving, teaching, and honoring the pre-NBA history of African Americans in basketball. BIG EAST players will wear shooting shirts featuring the team logos of historical Black Fives basketball teams. From the early 1900s through the 1940s, these teams played in ballrooms, gymnasiums and other venues located within the same geographic footprint as many of the BIG EAST schools today and together played a crucial role in breaking down racial barriers in American sports during the early to mid-20th century.
