Celebrate the “Sweet 16” Team With The Milwaukee Panthers

Save the date; team will be honored Feb. 15

MILWAUKEE – This season marks the 15th anniversary of the amazing run to the "Sweet 16" in the NCAA Tournament by the 2004-05 Milwaukee men's basketball team. Members of that squad will be honored at UWM Panther Arena when the current roster takes on Green Bay February 15.
 
The Panthers went 28-6 that magical season, capped by their unbelievable run through "March Madness", first knocking off 21st-ranked Alabama in the first round an then upsetting 14th-ranked Boston College to punch their ticket to the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament.
 
The Milwaukee Athletics Department is reaching out to its fans to help tell the story and honor this team, providing additional information that could be included in promotional pieces and gameday features. In addition to honoring the 2004-05 team in person that day, there will be an all-fan giveaway to the first 2,000 fans of a commemorative poster, sponsored by Mueller QAAS.
 
We are asking for your photos, stories and memories from those great days in Cleveland at the NCAA regional back in March of 2005 to capture as much content as possible leading up to the Feb. 15th contest.
