Looking Back

Captured in Time

It's a Bird! It's a Plane! It's...Br. Ed Sheehy?

So it’s not a 100-year vintage photo, but it’s a classic just the same! This promo for La Salle University’s Admissions Office debuted in 1999 and features Br. Ed Sheehy -- La Salle’s inimitable History prof and Basketball moderator. In the 2000-2001 academic year, La Salle’s Historical Society even sold tee-shirts bearing this photograph plus “La Salle’s Airness” on the back, and “The Man, The Myth, The Legend” on the front. With Br. Ed demonstrating such graceful athleticism and basketball wizardry, the rest of us are mere mortals!
