Portune: Hooray Pirtle, forget Dantonio
Yesterday -- Nov. 28, 2006 -- officially was designated as Laurie Pirtle Day in Hamilton County in an action taken today by commissioners.
Pirtle (pictured) is the University of Cincinnati women's basketball coach who earned her 300th career Tuesday with with a 74-57 win over Murray State.
Commissioner Todd Portune, an avid sports fan, presented the proclamation with the designation at today's commission meeting and it was adopted.
Portune said he also prepared last weekend a proclamation for (then-) UC football coach Mark Dantonio, urging him to stay as the head Bearcat.
Dantonio, though, accepted the head coaching job Monday at Michigan State University.
