Photo Flashback: First Unbeaten Hardwood Champs in a Decade
Thank you to Art Kleck ’53 for sending this great throwback photo of Kappa Sigma’s intramural fraternity basketball team. The team achieved great success in 1952 with their undefeated record, making them the first unbeaten hardwood champs in a decade. The “Denisonian” campus newspaper once wrote that the “Kappa Sig ‘A’ League” was even capable of giving Ohio varsity teams a good game. All five starters were chosen to play on the All-Star team and their coach, Pete, was named “Coach of the Year.” Do you remember these guys? Are you one of them?
