A series of events unfolded last week that ended up landing KARL Chevrolet in a national article on the Yahoo! Sports website.  Here is a brief look back..... by Leo Karl III:

As part of an NCAA sponsorship and marketing package, the Tri-State Chevrolet Dealers are running a half-time 'shot from center court to win a Chevy Cruze' contest at select New York area College and University home basketball games.  Last Monday, January 21st, at Webster Bank Arena was one of the Fairfield University games chosen for this promotion.  Earlier in the day on Monday, KARL Chevrolet drivers delivered a new Chevy Cruze to the Arena for display at the Fairfield University Stags vs. Loyola of Maryland Greyhounds game that night.
