BOSTON, Mass. _ ISL photographer Trevor Mahlmann was on hand as the Purdue men’s basketball team practiced at the home of the Celtics (TD Garden) on Thursday. The team was preparing for their Sweet 16 tilt against Texas Tech on Friday night. The winner of Friday’s (or more likely early Saturday Morning’s) game will face either Villanova or West Virginia on Sunday in the Elite Eight. This is the second consecutive Sweet 16 appearance for the Boilermakers.
