Pat Wesley, back on the court at Prather

His smile, prominent ears and graceful stride made Patrick Wesley a memorable figure when he played for the Demon basketball team from 1985-89.

He was a key in the Dec. 7, 1988 win for NSU, 85-82, at Kentucky early in his senior year, the first season under coach Dan Bell.

Wednesday night, Pat was back on the court at Prather Coliseum, but instead of playing, he was officiating, one of three refs for the girls championship game of the City of Lights Classic high school tournament hosted by local schools St. Mary's and Natchitoches Central.

Graduate N Club Hall of Fame basketballer Emma Ellerman Boozman is the head coach at NCHS and is one of the winningest coaches in state girls basketball history.
