WLBZ, WABI Cover Third Annual Bears ’N’ Claws Event
WLBZ (Channel 2) and WABI (Channel 5) reported on the third annual Bears ’n’ Claws lobster bake held at the home of Richard Barron, head coach of the University of Maine women’s basketball team. The event benefited the Friends of Maine Basketball and offered a chance for athletes and coaches to interact with the community. “It’s fun for them,” Barron said of the first-year student-athletes. “It’s a chance to talk about Maine, why they came and re-energize our fan base. It’s also a chance to acknowledge friends who have been there and supported us,” Barron said of the event.
