• ... that Nick Kerbawy did not receive his college tennis championship trophy until 14 years after winning it? Source: "A Slight Delay" by UPI, May 17, 1949 ("In 1935, Nick Kerbawy won the Michigan normal tennis championship. Apparently there was some delay in delivery of the trophy. It didn't show up until yesterday.")
  • ALT1 ... that Nick Kerbawy served as a general manager in both the NFL and NBA? Source: [1]

• Article is new enough (created 9/7) and long enough. Appears policy compliant, reads well, thoroughly cited, and Earwig detects nothing nefarious. Hook is short enough and cited in-line. The hook relates to a campus tennis championship and is OK (the 14-year delay gives it some oomph). If the creator wants to craft an alt hook drawing on Kerbawy's diverse background as a general manager in both the NFL and NBA might be better, I'd be willing to come back and check it out. (Has anyone else in history ever been a GM in both NBA and NFL?) The only thing preventing a green tick is the QPQ which needs to be done. Cbl62 (talk) 00:42, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
  • @Cbl62: I've reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Shaun Aguano as a QPQ and added an ALT1 hook based on your suggestion. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:40, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
• Both hooks approved. Let the promoter choose which is best. Cbl62 (talk) 18:05, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
