On Tuesday, Dec. 30, before Bob Burchard pursued his 703rd victory in 28 years leading the Columbia College basketball team, the school announced that this long-term relationship was secure enough to be put in writing. Shortly after Burchard received his umpteenth ceremonial basketball for surpassing the 700-win mark, the crowd at a noon matinee at the Southwell Complex learned that the Cougars will now play on Bob Burchard Court.
