PRONUNCIATION GUIDE MICHUDA ....mi-SHOE'-duh PLEAS PLEZ WITALEC wi-TA'-lick The 1969-70 Season I t ,x: i \ Tom Gola, 'Coach of the Year/ Back for Second Season at Explorer Helm Thomas J. (Tom) Gola, former La Salle superstar, five-time NBA all- star, two term state legislator and successful insurance executive, is back for the second season as head coach of his alma mater's basketball squad. Gola, everybody's All Everything during La Salle's basketball glory days in the early 1950s, will again have his own difficult act to follow. The 36-year-old mentor last year was named "Coach of the Year" by both Philadelphia and New York sportswriters after leading La Salle to its best court record in history—finishing with a phenomenal 23-1 won- lost count, capturing the coveted Big Five title and placing second in the final Associated Press national rankings. Perhaps the finest all-around schoolboy star in Philadelphia history, Gola scored 2,222 points at La Salle High under coach Charlie (O'Bie) O'Brien, who called him "the greatest player since the end of the center jump." He made All American teams all four years (1951-55) at La Salle College under coach Ken Loeffler. He helped lead the Explorers to the National Invitation Tourney crown as a freshman in 1952, the NCAA title in 1954 and the NCAA runnerup slot to San Francisco and Bill Russell in 1955. La Salle won 107 games and lost only 19 during Tom's career. Gola's collegiate scoring and rebounding feats as an Explorer will probably never be surpassed. He finished with 2,461 points (20.3 ppg.) and 2,201 rebounds and grabbed just about every honor available at some point or another during his brilliant 121 game career that has gone down in La Salle's history as the Glorious Gola Era. As a freshman, Tom was co-MVP of the N.I.T. with teammate Norm Grekin. As a junior he was Player of the Year. He is a member of the Hall of Fame at the New Madison Square Garden. He was selected to Sport Magazine's All Time All American quintet and the Helms College Basketball Hall of Fame. Temple coach Harry Litwack called him "abso- lutely the greatest player I've ever seen." After his graduation in 1955, Tom played in the NBA for a decade with the old Philadelphia Warriors and New York Knickerbockers. Named five times to the All fcro team, Tom scored over 8,000 points during his career and helped lead the Warriors to the world championship in his rookie season, 1956. His pro career was interrupted for two years of U. S. Army service. Gola retired from the NBA after the 1966 season and was elected that November to the Pennsylvania State Legislature from the 170th District. Reelected last year, he was a member of the Higher Education, and Law and Order Committees. This November, he was the successful Republican candidate for city controller. Although this will be only his second official year in organized coach- ing, Gola is no stranger to teaching the finer points of the game. He has participated in numerous clinics, both professional and collegiate. As a pro "coach," he is unbeaten in two games, having taken over the Knickerbocker reigns twice for Eddie Donovan. As both player and coach at La Salle, he has amassed a total won-lost record of 125-20. Much in demand on the banquet circuit, Gola handled color on Phila- delphia 76ers' radio broadcasts two years ago.

    IAVA Recipient: Secretary Mattis Letter: Greetings, First, thank you for your service and sacrifice and for your incredible leadership that so many in the military and veteran community have experienced and respect. As you know, more than 1.5 million veterans have have educated themselves with the Post-9/11 GI Bill, and almost 70% of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) members have used or transferred this benefit to a dependent. It could very well be the most transformative federal benefit created. The new restriction on Post-9/11 GI Bill transferability to only those with less than 16 years of service is a completely unnecessary reduction of this critical benefit, and it will ultimately hurt our military recruitment and readiness. In a time of war, it remains enormously important to recruit and retain qualified servicemembers, especially with an ever-decreasing pool of eligible recruits. For years, IAVA has been at the forefront of this fight. We led the effort to establish this benefit in 2008 and we have successfully defended it in recent years. We cannot allow our GI Bill to be dismantled or abused. This is why I am standing with my fellow IAVA members to respectfully request that you reverse this counterproductive policy change that creates barriers to access to these transformative benefits. The GI Bill has been earned by millions of men and women on the battlefield and around the world and it should not be subjected to arbitrary restrictions that limit its use. Again, thank you for your leadership and I ask that you take action now to reverse this decision.

  • Remembrances and Thank Yous by Alan Cotler, W'72
    Remembrances and Thank Yous By Alan Cotler, W’72, WG’74 When I told Mrs. Spitzer, my English teacher at Flushing High in Queens, I was going to Penn her eyes welled up and she said nothing. She just smiled. There were 1,100 kids in my graduating class. I was the only one going to an Ivy. And if I had not been recruited to play basketball I may have gone to Queens College. I was a student with academic friends and an athlete with jock friends. My idols were Bill Bradley and Mickey Mantle. My teams were the Yanks, the New York football Giants, the Rangers and the Knicks, and, 47 years later, they are still my teams. My older cousin Jill was the first in my immediate and extended family to go to college (Queens). I had received virtually no guidance about college and how life was about to change for me in Philadelphia. I was on my own. I wanted to get to campus a week before everyone. I wanted the best bed in 318 Magee in the Lower Quad. Steve Bilsky, one of Penn’s starting guards at the time who later was Penn’s AD for 25 years and who helped recruit me, had that room the year before, and said it was THE best room in the Quad --- a large room on the 3rd floor, looked out on the entire quad, you could see who was coming and going from every direction, and it had lots of light. It was the control tower of the Lower Quad.

With 12 NCAA Tournament berths in the last 14 seasons, seven Sweet Sixteen appearances, a pair of consecutive Final Four showings, and the 2002 national championship – the first of its kind in Maryland basketball history – Williams and his staff have literally forged what is now more than a decade of dominance in college basketball’s most storied and competitive conference. Now, with 378 victories as Maryland’s head coach, Williams is the school’s Terrapins all-time winningest head coach, eclipsing the mark of former Terp mentor Charles “Lefty” Driesell, who amassed 348 victories in 17 seasons from 1969-70 to 1985-86. The Terrapins have averaged 23.0 wins per year since the 1994-95 season. With 585 career victories in 29 seasons overall, Williams is the seventh-winningest active head coach in NCAA Division I men’s basketball. Williams was heralded as the national and ACC Coach of the Year during the Terps’ 2002 championship run. He is one of just 12 active coaches in America to boast a national title and one of only three in the conference. He has become the third-winningest coach in ACC history after transforming the Maryland program into one of the nation’s most formidable, and building a Baltimore-D.C.
