Mike Boticki is probably best remembered as one of the most ardent supporters of V-Hawk basketball throughout his five years as the manager of the men's basketball team. Dedicated to serving the V-Hawks year-round, Boticki brought energy and excitement to the Student Activities Center as the basketball program blossomed into a perennial conference champion.

Boticki's enthusiasm was contagious. With a towel as his weapon, he brought many a Viterbo crowd to its feet in support of the V-Hawks. What spectators might not have seen was his dedicated work behind the scenes.

Attentive to detail, Boticki was a self-starter who exhibited initiative and ambition in volunteering his services for Viterbo basketball. He always had a listening ear for many of the members of the basketball team, and they frequently confided in him as a counselor and a friend.
