Brett Friedlander

Award-winning sports writer and columnist Brett Friedlander has been covering the ACC and college basketball since before anyone knew how to spell Krzyzewski, let alone pronounce it. He’s won 26 national, state and regional awards, covered 13 Final Fours, The Masters golf tournament, a Super Bowl and a World Series, and is the author of the book “Chasing Moonlight: The True Story of Field of Dreams’ Doc Graham.” He was at courtside for the wins that made both Dean Smith and Mike Krzyzewski the winningest coach in college basketball history. But his main claim to fame is having his laptop computer crushed by Grayson Allen on press row at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
