Marsh 1907 - 1982 a native New Yorker was among the fundamental figures in the growth of college basketball as a major sport. Marsh was assistant sports editor of the New York Herald Tribune. Marsh started at the paper as a copy boy while still a student at City College. By 1930 he was regularly covering college basketball then a sport confined to local rivalries in cramped campus gyms. An occasional "big game" found its way to an armory. Ned Irish introduced intersectional doubleheaders to Madison Square Garden in December 1934 and Marsh was quick to see the potential of the sport. He helped organize the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association that year and in 1938 was a leader in founding the N.I.T. which was originally sponsored by the writers group. Marsh was also attracted by college football partly because of the Herald Tribune's sponsorship of an All-Star game for the benefit of the Fresh Air Fund and partially because of his association with Columbia. He served three terms 1942-47 1951-53 and 1966-68 as Columbia's sports information director. Marsh along with Everett B. Morris of the Herald Tribune started the East-West College All-Star basketball game at Madison Square Garden in 1946. The annual event which ran until 1964 was also a benefit for the Fresh Air Fund. Marsh was not only active in the promotion of the Garden event but also in the assembling of the teams and maintaining the relationship with the N.C.A.A. and the colleges whose players appeared in the game. The All-Star game gave heightened visibility to college players and the schools they represented. Marsh was instrumental in developing the Eastern College Athletic Conference into a major factor in the organization of college sports. The E.C.A.C. began as the central office of Eastern Intercollegiate Athletics in 1938 primarily as a clearinghouse for the assignment of game officials. It later grew into an organization of over 100 colleges that conducted championships in several sports. Marsh founded the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau its publicity and statistical arm in 1947. The Herald Tribune closed in 1966 and Marsh worked for its ill-fated successor the World Journal Tribune until it closed May 5 1967. In July 1969 he became the full-time head of the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau in Manhattan. He retired in June 1973. Marsh and Edward Ehre founded and co-edited the hardcover book annual Best Sports Stories E.P. Dutton from 1945 to 1980 a book that helped elevate sportswriting and also recognized its quality.

2018br. Flushing Meadows, settembre 1981. Björn Borg, l'imperturbabile svedese diventato il più ricco e famoso tennista della storia, perde contro il suo giovane rivale John McEnroe nella finale degli US Open. Dopo l'ultimo colpo che finisce oltre la linea di fondo, Borg si avvicina alla rete, stringe la mano di McEnroe in silenzio e abbandona per sempre il gioco che aveva dominato per l'ultimo decennio. Nessuno se ne rese conto, all'epoca, ma quel giorno segnò una svolta epocale nella storia del tennis. Ripercorrendo le fasi salienti del torneo, Stephen Tignor ricostruisce la vita e la carriera degli uomini che hanno reso memorabili quei giorni: lo svedese soprannominato "Ice Borg", che sotto una facciata gelida nascondeva in realtà un temperamento focoso, e John McEnroe, il genio tormentato destinato a scalzare il suo stesso idolo dal piedistallo. Ma anche Jimmy Connors, il mancino ribelle figlio di operai che affrontava ogni partita come fosse una guerra e che divenne l'antieroe più amato dal pubblico; Ilie Nastase, l'irriverente rumeno dal comportamento spesso eccentrico e trasgressivo; o Vitas Gerulaitis, l'affascinante newyorkese, assiduo frequentatore dello Studio 54, che era amico di tutti loro; fino a Ivan Lendl, il robot cecoslovacco che dominò il tennis del decennio successivo. Rivali sul campo ma spesso anche nella vita, questi uomini sono stati gli indimenticabili protagonisti del decennio che ha traghettato il tennis nell'età moderna.
