NY Racing Team & Syracuse University join forces for Go Bowling at the Glen Cup Series race

Cohen’s choice of the number 44 for his racing team was inspired by influential Black entrepreneurs and athletes, including Elmira native, Ernie Davis, the first African-American to win the Heisman Trophy and a Syracuse football legend. As a former member of the Grambling State football team under the legendary coach Eddie Robinson, Cohen understands the importance of representation. “Representation matters, just like Ernie Davis matters to me, and I hope I matter to somebody in the next age group that’s coming behind me. So the 44 means a lot to me, and I want to keep it out there and let people know about Ernie Davis,” Cohen explained.
