LADIES AND GENTLEMEN The Philadelphia Chapter, Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame takes pride in welcoming you to its 1982 AWARDS DINNER. Our Chapter is a prominent force in recognizing deserving people who have dedicated their careers to the "World of Sports"...making significant contributions...and achieving prominent stature on local, state, national and international levels. Tonight we are making another special effort...deviating from commonplace "staging"...to provide an evening that you will long remember as a unique one...an evening of friendship, relaxation, mutual respect, humility, and pride. The most cherished moments in lite are those we share with family and friends. This is such a moment; your presence and desire to share in this eve• ning's highlights are the ultimate of praise and gratitude tor a job well done. We dedicate our program as a tribute to Philadelphia's beloved Connie Mack...who has often been described as "A Great Champion, A Great Man, A Great Spirit". In 1883, Mr. Mack began a career in which he lived baseball until retirement in 1950...the last titty-six years, as Fr. Jerome C. Romanowski stated in his book. The Mackmen, doing the thing he was destined to do- manage a baseball team! Mr. Mack guided his A's tor 50 consecutive years, finally retiring at age 88...a truly remarkable achievement. We are grateful that Mr. Mack has honored us by being one of us. • •AN • D NOW FOR THE INDUCTION OF THE 1982 HONOREES! It would be reasonable to state that all of our Honored Guests have been touched by "Mr. Mack's" sphere of influence. They, as he, have made many personal and career sacritices...refusing to waiver from their allegiance to sports. Their exceptional service has brought much favorable recognition and respect to the "City of Brotherly Love and Beyond"...fostering and maintaining the highest ideals of humanitarianism and American athletic traditions. Each HCNCREE has contributed unselfishly to improving the lives of countless persons...so, now we present to the community-at-large, fellow citizens whose accomplishments can justifiably serve as exemplary models, deserving of the admiration and emulation of all. It is a privilege to gather and extend our heartiest congratulations to each HONOREE and ACCEPTEE while wishing fervently that the ensuing years will bring forth continued SUCCESS...HEALTH...PROSPERITY..., and HAPPINESS.

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.

  • Downtrodden Yet Determined: Exploring the History Of
    DOWNTRODDEN YET DETERMINED: EXPLORING THE HISTORY OF BLACK MALES IN PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL AND HOW THE PLAYERS ASSOCIATION ADDRESSES THEIR WELFARE A Dissertation by JUSTIN RYAN GARNER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha Brison Paul J. Batista Tommy J. Curry Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore May 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Justin R. Garner ABSTRACT Professional athletes are paid for their labor and it is often believed they have a weaker argument of exploitation. However, labor disputes in professional sports suggest athletes do not always receive fair compensation for their contributions to league and team success. Any professional athlete, regardless of their race, may claim to endure unjust wages relative to their fellow athlete peers, yet Black professional athletes’ history of exploitation inspires greater concerns. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to explore and trace the historical development of basketball in the United States (US) and the critical role Black males played in its growth and commercial development, and 2) to illuminate the perspectives and experiences of Black male professional basketball players concerning the role the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and National Basketball Retired Players Association (NBRPA), collectively considered as the Players Association for this study, played in their welfare and addressing issues of exploitation. While drawing from the conceptual framework of anti-colonial thought, an exploratory case study was employed in which in-depth interviews were conducted with a list of Black male professional basketball players who are members of the Players Association.
