A recent visit to the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame (more on this trip coming Monday) led to this week’s Fan Teaser.
Before he matriculated to the University of Cincinnati, Oscar Robertson, was a standout at Indianapolis Crispus Attucks High School. A 3-year starter at Attucks, he led the team to a 62-1 record over his final two seasons (including 45 straight wins at one point!) and won back-to-back state championships.
At the University of Cincinnati, Robertson averaged 33.8 points per game, was named All-American and the College Player of the Year each of his three seasons of eligibilty. As a team, the Bearcats went 79-9 during Robertson’s tenure and advanced to two consecutive Final Fours (1958-59 and 1959-60), taking third in each.
Just to review, The Fan Teaser comes courtesy of longtime buddy, Pat Schutte. The cropped photo below and the accompanying clue give you an idea as to who or what the image is of. We invite you to use the Comment option to take a crack at solving the Teaser and, if you’re so inclined, participate in some good-spirited banter with your fellow sports fans. The Fan Teaser will appear each Friday morning with the reveal coming to you Sunday.
