Winning basketball games was what this man did everywhere he went. He was an all-state player on a Granby High School team in Norfolk, Va., that won a state championship. The Duke Blue Devils signed him in 1951, and in his two seasons earning a letter, Duke won 38 games with 14 losses. He coached three seasons of high school basketball, and led Newport News to a state championship. As head man at Davidson, Maryland, James Madison and Georgia State, his teams won six conference tournament championship games and 16 regular season titles.
