Getting to know John Groce
March 30, 2012 8:33 AM
John Groce was 6, maybe 7, when he first made memories of Big Ten basketball.
As a kid, he would sit on his grandmother's couch and listen to games on her transistor radio.
"I think John still has that transistor radio," said his younger brother, Dave.
The memories of Eileen Wise, their grandmother, brought tears to the eyes of John and Dave. She was a Bears fan. So is John. She was a Big Ten fan. So is John.
