Mike Lupica, a NY Daily News Columnist and ESPN 98.7 Radio host, reflected on his relationship with the late great tennis star and humanitarian, Arthur Ashe, with What's The 411's correspondent Andrew Rosario.
The conversation took place at the Arthur Ashe Sports Ball 2012 held at Chelsea Piers to benefit the Arthur Ashe Institute for Urban Health. The AAIUH provides a three-year science enrichment program for college-bound high school students.
Mike Lupica remembers being at center court when Arthur Ashe won Wimbledon in 1975, and how he enjoyed their golf outings.
Lupica was floored by a comment Arthur Ashe made about race and the HIV/AIDS virus and he wished Arthur Ashe could have lived to see the election of President Barack Obama.
