Several articles serve as companions to Andy Katz's lovely piece on Maggie Dixon and the double-header (The Maggie Dixon Classic) held this weekend in her honor. There were, of course, the games. First, Maggie's brother Jamie coached his Pittsburgh Panther teams to a victory over over Western Michigan, and later Jim Foster's Ohio State Buckeyes defeated Army rather handily, but, says Beth Mowins, the score doesn't tell the whole story.

"The Black Knights played hard and hustled the whole way," writes Mowins. "They never gave up. And in the end, they played the way Maggie Dixon would have wanted."

Between the two games, the Patriot League Championship and Coach of the Year banners were raised. The team, as well as the Dixon family, were presented with Patriot League Championship rings.

Newsday's Joe Gergen reminds us of the impact Dixon had, thoughts echoed by Columbus Dispatch's Jim Massie.
