Cinderella Honored at State Capitol
April 24th, 2013 by flanewsDunk City was in the House today, the Florida House.
Basketball players from Florida Gulf Coast University were honored in the state House for their historic NCAA run. FGCU became the first 15th seed in the history of the NCAA tournament to make it to the Sweet Sixteen. The Senate also welcomed the basketball team into its chamber.
“We love Tallahassee. It’s a great city… but it’s not as good as… Dunk City… Congratulations you’ve made Florida proud,” said Senator Garrett Richter.
The FCGU Eagles got the nickname Dunk City after their high flying slams and ally-ops caught the attention of fans this March.
