RENOWNED COACH JERRY TARKANIAN ATTENDS
DICKRANIAN LIONS BASKETBALL GAME IN LAS VEGAS
Los Angeles, May 8, 2009- When the well-known basketball coach Jerry
Tarkanian heard that the Dickranian Lions of TCA Arshag Dickranian School were
the only Armenian basketball team competing at the Double Pump All Star High
School Boys’ Basketball Tournament held on April 24-26 in Las Vegas, he
decided to give the team, their coach and parents a courtly visit.
The teenage boys may not have heard about the one time famed University of
Nevada coach, but the name was much familiar with Mr. Rudolph Rameh, the
Head Coach of the Dickranian Lions and the boys’ parents, who have made the
trip to root for their team. While at the court, Mr. Tarkanian used the
opportunity to tip his young compatriots with a few tricks of the game,
trying to help them in facing their much more experienced opponents.
The Double Pump All Star High School Boys’ Basketball Tournament was the
first out of state experience for the Dickranian Lions, giving the young
players the opportunity to compete with larger and more experienced school
teams, as well as making acquaintance with celebrities such as Jerry Tarkanian
The Athletic Committee of Arshag Dickranian School will culminate the
school’s athletic activities with its Second Annual Sports Banquet to be held
on Saturday, May 30, at the school’s Walter and Laurel Karabian Hall, in an
evening of joint celebration and total enjoyment with students, parents and
guests.
