WORCESTER - The Worcester City Council voted on a resolution to accept a $150,000 contribution to help design, create and deliver a statue outside of the DCU Center. 

The statue will honor former Boston Celtics and Holy Cross standout Bob Cousy. The $150,000 will come from a $1 million management agreement extension for the DCU Center. 

In 2008, a statue was placed outside of Holy Cross' Luth athletic complex. 

The Worcester resident was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2019.
