The Winning Stuff

 

Browsing the DP archives yesterday I found a gem squeezed between some junk.  Fresh off an undefeated Ivy League Championship, the 1982-'83 Quakers were under new management.  Bob Weinhauer (who took them to the Final Four) was out, In was Craig Littlepage.  And though they had "The Winning Stuff" the season before, Penn couldn't repeat, taking 2nd with an 11-3 record.  Nonetheless, they looked great in their suits in front of Weightman Hall.

82-83 Media Guide Back cover

Those finely appareled gentleman on the back cover were the team's five seniors (from right to left): Avery Rawlings, co-captains Michael Brown and Paul Little along with George Noon and David Lardner.

Other notemeal from the guide include

  • A young assistant athletic director — Steve Bilsky
  • Assistant coach Tom Schneider, who took over upon Littlepage's exit
  • junior George May's roster spot lists his high school coach; former Women's hoops coach Pat Knapp
