The U.S. Basketball Writers Association mourns the passing of Bob Holt of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, a longtime member of our Board of Directors whose authoritative perspective and generosity of spirit made him an essential part of the organization. Bob was always available for any board responsibility that would be helpful and frequently offered thought-provoking ideas in our meetings. He supported and encouraged young reporters whether they worked for his organization or others. His devotion to his work, commitment to fairness and kindness to others will always be remembered.
