Anyone hear of it before?

there were two wilson pro staff balls----a teal urethane model and a burgundy reactive model. i believe these were made in the early 1990's. i remember a espn telecast where both walter ray williams, jr., and butch soper were wearing wilson pro staff shirts. i also remember another telecast where dave arnold was using the burgundy reactive ball.

I had one. Not a bad ball. It won't be the most aggressive thing you will ever throw, but for a tamer reactive, it fills the bill.
