Julia Maxfield Brooks, avid UC basketball fan
One fan didn't live long enough to see the University of Cincinnati play the University of Kentucky in this year's NCAA basketball tournament.
Julia Maxfield Brooks, an avid Bearcats, Bengals and Reds fan, died Wednesday at 83.
The Dayton resident's favorite time of year was basketball season, said her son, Ernest Brooks of Dayton.
"She never missed a game, " he said of her favorite teams. "If they were on TV, she'd be right in front of it."
For the past seven years, the family has done a NCAA tournament basketball pool, which Mrs. Brooks won three times, her son said.
Her sons playing on high school teams may have sparked her interest in sports. Ernest Brooks was on the Dayton High School football team that won the state championship in 1966.
"She and dad went to every away game, " he said.
Mrs. Brooks spent most of her early years in Cold Spring. She met her husband, Charles, when the car she was a passenger in rear-ended his.
They hit it off, and were married
in 1940.
