In this interview, we welcome Tom McKeown, author of This Is Panther Country, a gripping memoir of the 1974–75 Babylon Panthers high school basketball team and their legendary run to the Long Island Championship.
Tom shares what it was like growing up in a town unified by hoops, the unforgettable rivalry with Amityville, and how one team brought pride and healing to an entire community.
