Louis Cardinals icons such as Bruce Sutter, Ozzie Smith, Whitey Herzog, Lou Brock and Red Schoendienst also wore red jackets to honor a man who was the embodiment of the franchise for 72 years.
McKenith had 22 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds while Smith added 18 points in the 10th-seeded Red Storm's 96-90 double overtime loss to No. 7 Dayton on Sunday in the opening round of the Bridgeport Regional.
Born in Portland, Mr. Smith said that his strongest tea memory is drinking sweetened Red Rose at his grandmother's after school, the whole house filled with the aroma.
