FILE - In this April 5, 2012 file photo, Pat Kelsey speaks to fans as he is introduced as the new Winthrop men's basketball coach during a news conference at the Winthrop Coliseum in Rock Hill, S.C. A short time after her 7-year-old son, Chase, died in the Newtown, Conn., shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary, Becky Kowalski watched video of Winthrop basketball coach Pat Kelsey's heartfelt words about the tragedy. "He gets it," she said at the time. "He understands." The Kowalski family will meet Kelsey this week when they attend Winthrop's home game with Presbyterian on Saturday, March 1, 2014.
