Feedback: Better care of trophies requested To the editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com Thank you so much for the article about the 1954 and 1955 basketball team that made it to the state finals. How refreshing to finally hear about what good things used to happen in Columbia and what potentially could be another good thing if the boys win tonight!
