OLD HANDBALLERS DON’T FADE AWAY… — by Steve Nadis
They call it “All the news that’s fit to print,” but they fit precious little about handball into that paper. You pretty much have to die to get a story about handball in the New York Times. And it took the death of Vic Hershkowitz, the 23-time national handball champion from New York City, to get a feature article on handball in the hometown rag. They say Hershkowitz was the greatest who ever played. Unlike him, I’ll never be more than a mid-level player. But I still hope the New York Times won’t be writing about me anytime soon.
