Beating a dead horse during the Drought of 1999.
 
One person has told me that Jim Higgins played his senior year for Kelley,
while another says he missed Kelley by a year.  One person says that Jim
Cross never played for Kelley.  Kelley can also claim two D-3 coaches that I
can think of:  Rich Green at Colby and John Danby at UMass-Boston.
 
On Parker's side of the ledger, I left out Bill O'Neil of Salem State.
