Garris was supposed to be at Harding, but transferred to Bassick. Cannon and Murphy were also excellent players for Harding st the time. Smith went to Kolbe.

[mauconnfan]

A little older but Walter Luckett is a name I remember from Bridgeport.

Saw him play for Kolbe ina shootout with an Ansonia kid. I think he had 50 pts
He went to Ohio U in MAC
A few years later and he would have been in the Big East. Younger guys don’t understand how dead Eastern BB was until the Beast born. Ocassinally teams like PC , Cuse , or even Rutgers would make a FF but they usually were little threat to win.
