The southwestern region features unique high desert landscapes with striking rock formations.

The weather in Wyoming varies greatly, with cold, snowy winters, especially in the mountains, and warm, dry summers. The state experiences a semi-arid and continental climate, leading to significant temperature differences between seasons.

COWBOY CULTURE

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Guiding Principles in Wyoming Cowboy basketball are essential as they define the team’s core values and standards. They guide decision-making, ensure integrity and sportsmanship, and foster a disciplined, cohesive environment. These principles promote personal and athletic growth, team unity, and a strong sense of community. By adhering to them, the Cowboys maintain their legacy and drive for excellence.

The Cowboys earned an at-Large bid to the NCAA Tournament

WINNING TRADITION

Cowboy Basketball tradition is a rich one, including an NCAA National Championship team, a former coach who is a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, an All-American who is credited with one of the greatest innovations in the history of the game and one of the most memorable players in NCAA history.

In 1943, the University of Wyoming was led to the NCAA Championship by legendary coach Everett Shelton. Shelton’s 1943 Cowboy squad defeated Georgetown in the NCAA Championship game in Madison Square Garden. Two nights later, also in Madison Square Garden, the Cowboys earned the right to call themselves undisputed National Champions as they defeated that year’s NIT Champion, St. John’s University, in a game benefitting the Red Cross.

In 1982, Coach Shelton’s memory was immortalized with the highest honor in basketball — induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass.

The ‘43 Cowboys featured All-American Kenny Sailors, who dazzled fans with an innovation that would change the way basketball would be played forever — the jump shot.

Another Wyoming great that college basketball fans across the country still remember is Fennis Dembo. Dembo led the Pokes to the Sweet 16 of the 1987 NCAA Tournament and the next season graced the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine’s College Basketball Preview issue.

Most recently, fans watched another former Cowboy make a name for himself as one of the most exciting players in the NBA — Theo Ratliff. Ratliff, who played for the Cowboys from 1992 through 1995, still ranks as one of the greatest shot-blockers in NCAA history. Ratliff was inducted into the University of Wyoming Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame in the fall of 2005, and was named to the Wyoming All-Century team.

Recent grad Hunter Maldonado is the only player in college basketball history to record over 2,000 points, have over 600 assists and grab over 800 rebounds.

Cowboy basketball enters its 27th season as a member of one of the nation’s finest collegiate basketball leagues, the Mountain West. In addition to the Pokes, Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, Grand Canyon Nevada, New Mexico, San Diego State, San Jose State, UNLV and Utah State are members of the MW in basketball.

POSTSEASON PLAY

The Wyoming Cowboy basketball program is no stranger to postseason play. In fact, the Cowboys have played in the postseason 29 times. They have played in the NCAA Tournament 16 times, the National Invitation Tournament eight times and the College Basketball Invitational five times including last season’s title. The Cowboys made the NCAA Tournament last season.

The Cowboy basketball team has captured one NCAA Championship, during 1942-43. That year, the Pokes were led by head coach Everett Shelton and star players Kenny Sailors and Milo Komenich.

The 1986-87 season was another special postseason for the Cowboys. Led by the tandem of Fennis Dembo and Eric Leckner, the Cowboys advanced all the way to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. In UW’s second round game, the Cowboys beat UCLA and, their star at the time, Reggie Miller. Dembo led all scorers in the game with 41 points.

The Cowboys advanced to the Second Round of the 2002 NCAA Tournament. In the first round, the 11th seeded Cowboys met Gonzaga, who was ranked sixth in the country at the time. The Cowboys upset the Bulldogs 73-66.

Of Wyoming’s eight appearances in the NIT, the Cowboys have advanced to at least the second round four times. Their best NIT run came at the end of the 1985-86 season when the Cowboys advanced to the championship game, which was played at Madison Square Garden.

The 2014-15 season marked the return of the Pokes to the NCAA tournament, as Wyoming won the MW tournament to earn the conference’s automatic bid. The Pokes recieved an at-large bid in 2022 facing Indiana.

B.Y.O.J. (Bring Your Own Juice). H.T.B.A.G (Honor the Brown and Gold). T.G.T. (Tough Guy Town). G.D.T.B.A.C (Good Day to Be a Cowboy).

Wyoming's second-year head coach has a new condensed slogan for fans to get excited about for the 2025-26 season – RP40.

In Sunny speak, RP40 translates to "Relentless Pressure for 40 Minutes."

With a full recruiting and transfer portal cycle to assemble a roster with more athleticism, depth, length and quickness, Wicks plans for the Pokes to play an uptempo style to take better advantage of all 94 feet of the court and 7,220 feet of altitude in the Arena-Auditorium.

"We recruited speed and skill," Wicks said of the reloaded roster, which includes 12 new players. "Because size is great, but if size can't move, defend, then what's it matter? …

"We've got to have some speed to put some pressure on people and then have to use the Arena-Auditorium, aka the Double-A, aka the Altitude-Advantage to our advantage."

Playing with pace starts in the backcourt where UW will utilize a group of experienced and talented guards.

Leland Walker, a graduate transfer, has scored 1,125 points with 375 assists and 99 steals in 101 career Division I games. The 6-foot-1 senior is a natural point guard who emerged as a team leader during summer workouts after signing with UW to help Wicks get the program back in the March spotlight.

"My goal is to make the NCAA Tournament, so I'm going to do whatever I can to lead the team," Walker said. "It's my last year so I've got to get to the NCAA Tournament."

The other impact guard transfers are 6-4 junior Khaden Bennett, 6-3 junior Uriyah Rojas, 6-2 sophomore Jared Harris and 6-1 sophomore Damarion Dennis.

Bennett averaged 10.3 points and 4.3 rebounds while leading Quinnipiac to 20 wins and a MAAC regular season title.

Rojas, a junior college transfer, scored 1,100 points and made 121 3-pointers over the last two seasons at Chaffey College. During the 2024-25 campaign he averaged 25.5 points – including a 54-point outburst on 17-for-29 shooting against Victor Valley – as well as 7.7 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game.

Coming out of high school in Texas, Harris was a top 100 national prospect with offers from SEC, Big Ten, Big 12 and Big East programs. He was part of Memphis' NCAA Tournament team last season before entering the portal looking for a bigger role.

According to the analytics Wicks and his staff use in evaluating prospects, Dennis was a top 100 player nationally in offensive rating and top 80 in turnover rate as a freshman at Texas A&M Corpus Christi.

"We're focusing on everybody's sweet spots and what they love to do," Harris said. "Once you get that then

everyone will get connected and I feel like we'll have a great run at this."

Nasir "Naz" Meyer will provide size to the guard rotation. The true freshman from Los Angeles is listed at 6-foot-7, 194 pounds after grinding through Jimmy Edel's strength and conditioning program.

Meyer is part of a towering 2025 recruiting class that also includes 6-10 forward Gavin Gores, 6-9 forward Simm-Marten Saadi and 6-9 forward Neil Summers.

"When a guy commits to us, they're coming here for the right reasons," Wicks said. "That's the thing that Cowboy fans should know is that all these guys … they are coming here for the right reasons: the opportunity and they like Wyoming."

The Cowboys return two key pieces from last year's roster, 6-7 senior forward Matija Belic and 6-7 sophomore forward Abou Magassa. The mature duo have helped the coaching staff set the culture.

Belic was limited to 22 games last season after undergoing shoulder surgery. The versatile Serbian averaged 5.6 points and 3.1 rebounds while playing a chunk of the season on an injured ankle that required surgery in the offseason.

Sophomore

"T here were a lot of ups and downs for me and for the whole team," Belic said of his first season at UW following a transfer from UC Santa Barbara. "My main goal is to stay healthy this year, play a role in each game as much as I can and win as many games as possible. At the end of the day, that's what matters."

Magassa was one of the nation's most efficient offensive players in 2024-25 when the French import shot 72.4% from the field while averaging 3.2 points and 3.7 rebounds in 31 appearances. Wicks is pushing Magassa to be more of a leader and to seize a larger role.

"He's an elite finisher. He has great hands, but he's got to take the next step for us," Wicks said. "He had a lot of inconsistency in minutes last year, but I think that's because he was a redshirt freshman and it was his first time playing at college. Now he knows what that feels like every single day."

Two additional international players, 6-8 senior forward Kiani Saxon of New Zealand and 6-7 junior guard/forward Adam Harakow, are expected to be key contributors in the rotation.

S axon played for UW assistant Will Martin at Missouri Western and has a similar player-coach sensibility to what Cole Henry brought last season. Harakow led Lake Superior State to the Elite Eight in the Division II NCAA Tournament.

"Off the court, we're pretty tight. I'm really surprised about how well we're gelling," Saxon said. "On the court, credit to Coach Sunny on

recruiting all these guys that actually want to come together, compete and try to build a team that's going to do something special this year."

UW f ans can get an early look at Wicks' RP40 style at a slightly lower elevation when the Pokes play an exhibition against Northern Colorado on Oct. 18 at the Pronghorn Center in Gillette (elev. 4,554).

"We're going to lean into that this year, and we've recruited longer fast twitch athletes that are going to be able to get up and down the court," assistant Nick Whitmore said. "We've got a lot of depth this year which will help us play that style. If we can differentiate ourselves and hopefully see that fatigue set in the last 10 minutes for these opponents that have had to go through RP40. Hopefully at the end they are ready to tap out when our guys are in great shape and climatized and we're able to take advantage of that."

T he Pokes officially open the season against Northern State on November 3. A special contest marks Wicks' first contest coaching against his alma mater. It opens a four game homestand to start the season for the Brown and Gold. Wyoming faces Cal State Fullerton on November 8 followed by Austin Peay on November 11 and Portland on November 15.

W yoming also plays home contests against Norfolk State on November 23 and regional rival Denver on November 26. In the month of December, the Cowboys face Dartmouth on December 6 and close non-conference home action against South Dakota on December 9.

T he Pokes will play a pair of road games in the Lone Star State. UW visits Sam Houston State on November 19 and closes the month with a trip to Texas Tech on November 30. UW will play a neutral site contest against South Dakota State at the Sioux Falls Pentagon on December 15 to close out nonconference action.

University of Wyoming

Athletics Director Tom Burman announced the hiring of Sundance Wicks as head coach of the Cowboy Basketball Program in May of 2024. He is the 23rd head coach in Cowboy history. A native of Gillette, Wicks spent three seasons as an assistant coach (2020-23) at Wyoming and spent one season as head coach at Green Bay spearheading one of the best single season turnarounds in college basketball history beforereturningtoUW.

“First off, please know that I am honored, humbled and immensely grateful for this opportunity at the University of Wyoming,” Wicks said. “This opportunity would have never been possible without the Belief that Green Bay Chancellor Mike Alexander and Athletics Director Josh Moon had in our mission and vision a year ago at UWGB. To that end, I would like to thank Director of Athletics Tom Burman and UW President Edward Seidel for their trust in me and what We will do for the University and this great state moving forward.”

“ You cannot put into words what it means for a kid from the country roads outside of Gillette to represent the State of Wyoming and the Cowboys as their new head basketball coach,” said Wicks.

In his first season Wicks and the Cowboys won 12 games in his first season in charge of the Brown and Gold. Wicks rebuilt the roster during the month of May and won his first game with the Cowboys against Concordia St.Paul on November 4, 2024. The Pokes opened the season with a 5-1 record. The Poke also earned a win at UNLV during the conference season for the first win in Las Vegas since 2003.

Wicks mentored All-MW player Obi Agbim. One of the nation’s top scorers and three-point shooters he added 17.6 points per game and shot 43.7 percent from behind the arc. Wyoming was also solid on the glass during his first season being +2.0 on the boards and averaged 34.8 per game.

In his first year at Green Bay, Wicks was named the 2023-24 Horizon League Coach of the Year. He was also named the Joe B. Hall National Coach of the Year, which is presented annually to the top rookie, first-year head coach in NCAA Division I college basketball. Last season, Wicks posted an 18-14 record after the program finished at 3-29 prior to his arrival in 2022-23. That 15game turnaround tied for the ninth-best turnaround in NCAA DI history.

Wicks also mentored numerous players to awardwinning seasons at Green Bay. Noah Reynolds was named the Horizon League Newcomer of the Year, All-Horizon League First Team, and NABC District 12 All-Region First Team. For the first time in program history, Green Bay also saw two freshmen named to the Horizon League All-Freshman Team in David Douglas Jr. and Marcus Hall. Douglas Jr. was named the Freshman of the Year in the conference.

“We couldn’t be more excited to welcome back Sundance Wicks to Wyoming,” Burman said. “Sundance will bring a great energy to our program and the entire State of Wyoming. Being a native of this great state, Wicks knows the pride Cowboy fans take in the program and he will work tirelessly for his student-athletes and the community.”

Wicks spent three seasons at Wyoming under former head coach Jeff Linder. The Cowboys reached the NCAA Tournament in 2022 finishing the season with a 25-9 overall record. The Pokes received their first at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament since 2002 and marked the first trip to the Big Dance since 2015. The Pokes recorded 24 wins in the regular season for the most since the 1951-52 campaign.

“If there is one thing, I learned growing up in Wyoming it’s that when you Honor the Brown and Gold, you are honoring so much more than just the University of Wyoming,” Wicks said. “You are honoring every single hard hat that woke up before the sun to work the coal mines. It means paying your respects to

Wyoming also led the MW in three-point field goals per game at 10.1. The Pokes ranked No. 12 in the nation in three-point field goals per game as well.

Prior to his time in Laramie, Wicks was the head coach at Missouri Western for two seasons. Wicks led the Griffons to 18 wins in 2019-20, as it was the most by the program in 10 years. In his first season at the helm of the program his team doubled their win total from the prior campaign. In his two seasons, Wicks helped mentor six All-MIAA players and an NABC All-District selection.

Prior to his time at Missouri Western, Wicks spent time at his alma mater Northern State University, where he was associate head coach during the 2016-17 and 2017-18 seasons. In 2017-18, Wicks helped lead Northern State to the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference regular season and postseason championships.

As a student-athlete, Wicks was twice named first team All-NSIC, scoring 1,174 points and pulling down 665 rebounds in his career.

I am absolutely jacked up to work alongside Coach Martin again. He is a plug and play coach who knows how I operate and will immediately upgrade our staff with his recent head coaching experience and blue blood basketball background.

A true mentor leader, Nic does not tell you the way, he shows you the way. I am not sure there is a job in this profession that Coach Reynolds has not done. He understands the grit and grind of this profession and that the mission is the man. Without first leading the man, there can be no mission. Committed, competitive and all about the culture, Cowboy Country please welcome coach Reynolds to the Wild West ”

Cowboy basketball head coach Sundance wicks announced in May of 2025 the addition of former Cowboy Chris McMillian to the coaching staff. A standout for the Brown and Gold from 19982003, he helped lead the Pokes to a pair of Mountain West titles and an NCAA Tournament Berth.

“When it comes to hiring, I am constantly seeking out energy givers, men of high intentionality, artists of their craft, enemies of the status quo and high character humans who know what it takes to compete and win at the highest level,” Wicks Said. This final hire of the off-season is a special one. I knew we needed to continue to find ways to bridge our past with our present. I knew we needed to find a coach with serious blood in the bricks who has been a part of Winning at Wyoming. We found that coach in Chris McMillian. C-Mac is fifth all-time in assists and ninth all-time in steals, but more importantly he has championship pedigree at Wyoming helping the Pokes win back-to-back Mountain West Conference Championships in 2001 & 2002. Coach McMillian bleeds Brown & Gold!”

Coach McMillian’s relentless approach to attacking each day is what immediately stood out to me in the interview process. He is a swiss-army knife as a coach, he has done it all and is extremely intentional about how he goes about his work, squeezing the juice out of every day. He is a winner, and he is about winning above all else. We could not be more excited to bring Chris back to Laradise with his wife Megan and two beautiful daughters! Please help me welcome Chris McMillian back to Cowboy Country!”

A native of Brea, Calif., he was a key part of the Cowboys during his career, McMillian appeared in 125 career games for the Brown and Gold. He still ranks fifth in career assists with 434 and ninth in steals with 136. His 13 assists in a game against Delaware State in 2000 still ranks third in single-game school history. He also holds mark in the top-10 in single-season assist average and steals.

“It feels like Christmas morning being able to come back to the University of Wyoming,” McMillian said. “I had a chance to win championships for the Cowboys as a player and never did I think I would have the opportunity to come back as a coach. When I got into coaching in 2009 coming back was always a dream of mine and now that it is here it is amazing. I’m looking forward to working with Coach Wicks and the Staff.”

McMillian comes back to Wyoming after serving as associate head coach at Central Michigan. He helped lead the Chips with a 12-6 league record in 2023-24. CMU’s 12 league victories were the most since the 2014-15 season. In the offseason, the coaching staff rebuilt CMU’s roster with only four players returning as they added 12 new players and blended them into a team that challenged for the league title. In the preseason coaches’ poll, CMU was picked to finish in 12th place out of 12 teams.

Prior to his post at Central Michigan, McMillian spent two seasons at Idaho State (2019-21), helping lead the Bengals to a victory in the 2020 Big Sky Tournament, marking the first time the program won a game in the conference tournament since 2009.

McMillian served as the Director of Player Performance at Illinois-Chicago for four years, overseeing the design and implementation of the Flames’ strength and conditioning program.

McMillian’s resume also includes stops as an assistant coach at the College of Southern Idaho (2014-15) and at Hawaii (2010-14), where he served first as the strength coach and video coordinator before being promoted to the director of basketball operations. He began his coaching career as the director of operations at Centenary College in 2009-10.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in communications from Wyoming, a master’s degree in Educational Administration from Hawaii in 2013 and is a certified member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association.

Cowboy basketball head coach Sundance Wicks announced the addition of Chris Thomas as an assistant coach to the program in April of 2025. A veteran in the coaching ranks with over 20 years of experience, Thomas comes to Wyoming after serving as head coach of KK Cibona Zagreb of the Adriatic Basketball League.

“When it comes to hiring, I am constantly seeking out energy givers, men of high intentionality, artists of their craft, enemies of the status quo and high character humans who know what it takes to compete and win at the highest level,” Wicks said. “For this assistant I was specifically targeting an elite offensive mind and a coach who could add next level professional experience to our program. Cue Coach Chris Thomas. I have known CT since 2007 when he was an advanced scout for the Chicago Bulls. From the moment our paths crossed I knew three things: 1.) He was an outstanding human being with incredible juice 2.) He saw the game of basketball in a different way and was a gifted basketball mind 3.) He was going to be someone I would work with one day. That day has come! Coach Thomas is such a great hire for what we want to do here at Wyoming. Chris has been in rooms and worked with players and coaches that most of us could only dream. CT has been heavily involved in strategy and scheme meetings with Nick Nurse and the Toronto Raptors as well as the pre-draft evaluation process and war room meetings regarding the #1 pick of Derrick Rose. Last, but certainly not least, he assisted in creating the “culture of accountability” for the world champion Golden State Warriors. His journey as a professional head coach, an NBA assistant for the Bulls & Warriors, and offensive coordinator for the G-League 905 Raptors will add immediate value to our Cowboy Culture. Chris and his fiancé Karen will be an outstanding addition to our wild west family. Please help me welcome Coach Thomas to Cowboy Country.”

Thomas has aided in the development of NBA MVP’s Stephen Curry and Derrick Rose. He has also worked with eight NBA All-Stars during his time with the Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, Utah Jazz, and Toronto Raptors.

“I’m very excited for this opportunity,” Thomas said. “For me, it is very important to work for people you trust and care about. I have known Coach Wicks for almost 20 years, and I believe in his vision for this program both on and off the court. Coach Wicks is an incredibly passionate coach and lives the game of basketball every day. I am thrilled to be able to work for him and this amazing staff to help continue to build something special here at Wyoming.”

Thomas went overseas coaching in the ABL last season in Croatia after serving as an assistant coach at Long Island University from 2022-2024. During his time at LIU, Thomas helped recruit the top-ranked recruiting class in the NEC in both 2023 and 2024.

Prior to his time at LIU, Thomas served as an assistant coach and offensive coordinator for Raptors 905 of the NBA G-League in 2022. He helped lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals. He was the head coach and general manager for the Guaynabo Mets in San Juan, Puerto Rico for the 2020 and 2021 campaigns. Thomas guided all-league players David Stockton, Angel Nunez, Renaldo Balkman and Tony Bishop. Under his guidance, the team produced the longest winning streak of any team in the Baloncesto Superior Nacional (BSN).

He has also spent time as a coach in professional leagues in Japan, Slovenia, Malaysia, China, and Canada. He was an assistant coach for the Slovenian Men’s National Team in 2023 and 2014.

Thomas spent numerous years in the NBA as an advance scout with the Golden State Warriors helping lead the team to back-to-back playoff appearances from 2012-2014 for the first time in over 20 years. He also served in the same role with the Chicago Bulls from 2007-2009, where he also served as a video coordinator for a season.

Thomas also has collegiate coaching experience at Lake Superior State in 2010-11 along with Miami of Ohio and University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown.

Thomas graduated from the University of Dayton, majoring in Sport Management and Journalism.

•Burman has spearheaded over $120 million in facilities projects during his time as athletics director, including: construction of a new $11 million Indoor Practice Facility (Fall 2007); construction of the $22 million Wildcatter Stadium Club & Suites addition to War Memorial Stadium (Fall 2010); extensive renovations to the east side of War Memorial Stadium; significant upgrades to the UniWyo Sports Complex for volleyball and wrestling; completion of a new $3 million Indoor Tennis Facility (Spring 2011); a new $1.2 million golf practice facility (Summer 2014); and Phase I and II of a $30 million renovation to the Arena-Auditorium that was completed in the fall of 2017.

•The new Mick and Susie McMurry High Altitude Performance Center was completed in the summer of 2018 and provides all UW student-athletes with a world-class training facility. The $44 million facility was funded by $24 million in private donations and $20 million in matching funds from the state of Wyoming that were allocated with the support from the Wyoming State Legislature and then Gov. Matt Mead.

•In November of 2017, the Cowboy Joe Club, the fundraising organization for the University of Wyoming Athletics Department, announced that it had reached the 5,000-member plateau, making it the largest annual athletics scholarship fund membership in the Mountain West Conference.

•Wyoming Athletics shattered its annual fundraising record in the 2015-16 fiscal year as $20.4 million in pledges and gifts were made to UW Athletics. That broke the previous record of $12.8 million in pledges and gifts to UW Athletics that was also set during Burman’s tenure as A.D. in the 2013-14 fiscal year.

•Cowboy Joe Club annual revenue grew from $2.1 million in 2006 to over $6 million as of the end of the 2017-18 fiscal year.

OVER A CENTURY OF UW BASKETBALL

The fabric of Wyoming’s 118-year basketball tapestry is woven with many significant and magnificent contributions to the game, not to mention a multitude of memories to stir the emotions of every Cowboy fan.

There’s that 1943 National Championship, the crown jewel of this century. And before that, the 1934 national title, selected by the Helms Foundation.

There’s Les Witte, Wyoming’s very first All-American, who was so dominating in his time that he was picked as one of the five best players in the nation in 1932 — legendary John Wooden was also one of the five — as well as in 1934.

There’s the great All-American Kenny Sailors and his many contributions to the game including the jump shot which changed the game forevermore.

There’s Flynn, and his fabulous behind the ear jumper; Tub and his leadership; Fennis and his swagger, and Marcus and his charisma.

There’s 17 total All-Americans, 29 professional draft picks; 16 NCAA and 8 NIT postseason appearances.

There are four historic facilities which have housed the Pokes, each in its own right, becoming as hostile and unique as any homecourt in the land, while hosting nearly 900 Cowboy victories during the century.

There are the millions of fans who have loyally, and with a fierce pride, shared the great times, and the not-so-great times, with their beloved Cowboys.

It all began in a small red-brick structure, located near what is now the Arts and Sciences Building, known as the “Little Red Gym”. The State Legislature appropriated $15,000 to construct the gymnasium with a capacity of 1,000. While the first game there was played in March of 1905, it was the summer of 1904, when a team representing the university was challenged by a city outfit known as the “Laramie Town Team”. UW won the game 17-5, the first ever basketball victory for the brown and gold. It was the lone contest the team would play that year, forever stamping 1904 as the only undefeated campaign in Wyoming hoop history.

The Cowboys finished 52-40 in the Little Red Gym.

It would be five coaches and a decade later before UW would fashion another winning season. John Corbett, a Hall of Famer who would mean so much to Wyoming Athletics through his career, reversed the losing trend in 1915, by directing the Pokes to a 3-2 record. During his nine seasons at the helm, he would coach three winning seasons, stepping down as head coach after the 1923-24 season.

Cowboy basketball would begin to transform from a pastime to a passion during the next six seasons. Under the direction of Stewart Clark and George McLaren, the Cowboys would begin the winning tradition as we know it today. From 1925 through 1930, those two would produce a record of 71-34, and pave the way for the era’s “glory years”.

It was during Clark’s watch that the Cowboys moved into the Half Acre Gym. Construction of the Cowboys’ next home began in 1923, at a cost of $150,000. Considered a massive facility, the gym was just about one-half acre in size, and one of the nation’s largest and most modern facilities. It had a capacity of just over 4,000. It’s official dedication came on January 23, 1925, with Wyoming defeating Utah 31-29 in overtime. Known as “Hell’s Half Acre” because of the difficulty for opponents to win there, Wyoming played eight perfect home seasons in the gym in 26 seasons. From January of 1925 through March of 1951, the Cowboys were 222-44 in that building.

For the next 28 seasons following the Clark-McLaren era, a pair of coaches, known for their fierce competitiveness would elevate Wyoming basketball to a national level with successes that never were duplicated during Wyoming’s first 100 years of basketball.

The first of those two coaches was a reserved and shy gentleman by the name of Willard “Dutch” Witte who replaced McLaren in 1931. A Lincoln, Neb., native who coached as many as four sports while at Wyoming during the 30’s, Witte would coach nine of those 28 landmark seasons. Compiling 134 wins in 185 games, Witte coached the Cowboys to five Rocky Mountain Conference Eastern Division titles and two outright league crowns.

But his most brilliant year came in 1934, when his Cowboys reeled off 20 straight wins—an accomplishment that has not been repeated—and finished the season with a conference championship, a 26-3 record and Wyoming’s first national title. The Cowboys were selected as the 1934 National Champions by the Helms Athletic Foundation, the only collegiate voting poll of the era.

That season, Witte’s starting five—Ed McGinty, Art Haman, John Kimball, Haskell Leuty and his brother Les — all were named to one All-America team or another. Two seasons earlier Les became Wyoming’s first All-American, selected by both the Helms Foundation and the Converse Yearbook.

Under “Dutch”, the Cowboys would win 52 consecutive Rocky Mountain Conference games in the Half Acre Gym.

He also coached football for six seasons, and after stepping down from coaching, served as Director of Wyoming Athletics for many years, and was a member of the National Basketball Association Rules Committee.

Witte’s outstanding success was only exceeded by his successor, the legendary Everett Shelton.

BASKETBALL

It was Shelton who transformed Wyoming into a national name, a national power. For 19 seasons, and in two basketball palaces, he stalked the sidelines while directing Wyoming to 328 victories, and winning over 60 percent of his games. He remains the school’s all-time winningest coach. In 1982, his life’s work earned him basketball’s highest honor, induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame.

Ironically, Shelton’s first season at Wyoming was a dismal one. After winning his first three games as head coach, he would manage just three more wins the remainder of the year, and finished 6-10. His teams would win 20 or more games seven times following that season.

During his 19 campaigns, Shelton would coach Wyoming to eight conference championships, eight NCAA tournament appearances, and of course, the most famous season of them all, the 1943 National Championship.

The first basketball team from the Rocky Mountains to win an NCAA Basketball Championship, the 1942-43 Cowboys posted a 31-2 record, despite playing just nine home games all season. After losing at Duquesne (43-33) in the year’s fourth game, the Cowboys did not lose a game to another collegiate team the remainder of the season. Their only other loss was to the Denver Legion team. The Cowboys outscored their opponents by an average of 20 points per game, and became the first UW squad to reach the century mark by beating Regis, 101-45.

Wyoming opened the NCAA Tournament beating the University of Oklahoma, 53-50, in the first round. They then beat the University of Texas, 58-54, in the semifinals, to advance to the national championship game against Georgetown University. The Cowboys defeated Georgetown, 46-34, to claim the NCAA title.

Two days after winning the NCAA Championship, the Cowboys were asked to take on the winner of the National Invitational Tournament (NIT), St. John’s, in a Red Cross benefit game. The idea of the game was to raise money for the country’s war effort. It took an overtime period, but Wyoming beat St. John’s 52-47, in New York’s Madison Square Garden, to earn the title of World Champions of 1943.

While Shelton did a brilliant job of coaching that team, the stars were Kenny Sailors and Milo Komenich. While Sailors was scoring from the outside, Komenich was doing the damage on the inside.

A native of Hillsdale, Wyo., Sailors was a three-time All-American. He earned the honor in 1942 and 1943, and amazingly in 1946, after being away for two years serving in World War II. He was the unanimous selection for College Basketball Player of the Year in 1943, and was named the Most Valuable Player of the 1943 NCAA tournament. After the war, he was again named Player of the Year in ‘46. In an effort to shoot over his brother on their backyard court at home, he began toying with an offensive move in which he jumped, then shot. He turned it into an art, and is credited in most basketball circles with inventing the modern-day jump shot that revolutionized the game.

There was no basketball at Wyoming in 1943-44, due to World War II, and when it resumed in 1944-45, the Cowboys posted a losing record. But when Sailors and his teammates returned from the war, things were back on track for Wyoming basketball. The Pokes were 22-4 in 1945-46, and won the league. Shelton had great years in 1946-47 (22-6, conference champion and NCAA appearance); 1947-48 (18-9, conference title and NCAA appearance); 1948-49 (25-10, conference title and NCAA appearance); 1949-50 (25-11); 1950-51 (26-11); 1951-52 (28-7, conference title, and NCAA appearance); 1952-53 (20-10, conference title and NCAA appearance); and 1957-58 (conference title and NCAA appearance).

Willard “Dutch” Witte compiled a 135-52 (.722) record from 1931-39

While his teams raised havoc in “Hell’s Half Acre”, Shelton was an instrumental fundraiser for War Memorial Stadium and Fieldhouse, where he coached for eight seasons, once the Cowboys moved out of the Half Acre.

Construction of War Memorial Fieldhouse began in August of 1949, and had a price tag of an estimated $1,000,000. The Fieldhouse dedication was December 14-15, 1951, against St. Mary’s (Calif.) and Indiana. Wyoming beat the Gaels and lost to the Hoosiers. At the time it was built, the Fieldhouse was the biggest structure in Wyoming at 69,680 square feet. It was a War Memorial to all Wyoming World War II veterans. In 31 seasons, the Cowboys played 381 games there.

While much of Wyoming’s hoop tradition came in the 1940’s under Shelton, he coached many outstanding players through the 1950’s as well. Maybe the most notable was a young guy considered to be Shelton’s best small player since Sailors. His name was Joe Capua, and he would become Wyoming’s all-time single-season scoring leader. A tremendous sparkplug for the Cowboys from 1954 through 1956, the wiry guard from Gary, Ind., was an All-Skyline Conference selection for two seasons. In 1956 he led Wyoming in scoring at 24.5 points per game on his way to Skyline Player of the Year. That season he set a single-game scoring mark that still stands to this day. In a victory over Montana, he scored 51 points on 16 field goals and 19 of 26 free throws. Two nights later, in a win over Utah, he scored 32 points, capping the greatest individual scoring effort in back-to-back games in school history.

Another Shelton star during the late ‘50’s was Tony Windis. A native of Long Island, N.Y., Windis was considered one of the finest shooters ever to play at Wyoming. During his senior year of 1958-59, he averaged 24.4 points per game, the fifth-best scoring season in history. The Hall of Famer was ever-so-close to breaking Capua’s record on a January night in 1958 against New Mexico. While the Cowboys were romping to a 101-61 victory in the Fieldhouse, Windis was 19 of 30 from the field and 12 of 14 from the foul line for 50 points, one shy of Capua’s record. Of his 50 points that night, 33 came in the second half.

Shelton’s Wyoming finale was the 1958-59 season, and, ironically, it was his worst. The Pokes finished 4-22 that year. He would be replaced by one of his most outstanding former players, Bill Strannigan. A native of Rock Springs, the “Silver Fox”, as he would be later known, was once considered one of the greatest athletes ever produced in the state of Wyoming. He was an outstanding football and baseball player, but hoops was his game.

Strannigan came to Wyoming after coaching at Iowa State where his claim to fame was upsetting Kansas and its great center Wilt Chamberlain.

OVER A CENTURY OF UW BASKETBALL

While his career record with the Cowboys was below .500, the popular Strannigan brought exciting teams and players to the Fieldhouse. His most significant season came in 1966-67, when Wyoming earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament. To earn that right, they upset Brigham Young in a playoff at Salt Lake City after the two tied for the Western Athletic Conference Championship.

That team was nothing short of amazing. In mid-February, Wyoming had an overall record of 8-12, and going nowhere. All of a sudden, the Pokes caught fire and won their final six games of the regular season, including WAC road wins at Arizona, Arizona State and New Mexico, and home wins over BYU and Utah. That run forced the playoff game with the Cougars for the league’s automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament. The Pokes won that game and drew UCLA and Lew Alcindor in the NCAA’s first round. They lost that one, and then a consolation game to Texas-El Paso in the tournament. Strannigan also coached the Cowboys to a pair of NIT appearances in 196869 and 1969-70.

During his era, Strannigan brought some of the greatest players in school history to the Wyoming campus including Flynn Robinson, Leon Clark, Tom Asbury, Dick Sherman, Mike Eberle, Stan Dodds, Carl Ashley and Harry Hall.

The best of the best was Robinson. Considered the greatest pure shooter in Wyoming history, Fabulous Flynn could hit his patented one-hand jumper from behind his right ear from any place on the floor. Playing from 1963 through 1965, he remains third on Wyoming’s career scoring list with 2,049 points. That total was the career record for 20 seasons. Ironically Robinson and Strannigan were inducted into the University of Wyoming Athletics Hall of Fame in the same class of 1994.

During his 14 seasons as head coach, Strannigan posted six winning records, and six of his teams scored over 2,000 points in a season. His 196566 team is still seventh on the single-season team scoring list with 2,366 points in 26 games. That team scored over 100 points 10 times, including 120 against Nevada, the third-highest mark in school history. Strannigan teams were offensive minded.

When he stepped down in 1972-73, Strannigan was replaced by his assistant coach, close friend George “Moe” Radovich. A great player for the Cowboys and another great Cowboy Hall of Famer, Moe’s Cowboys struggled during his three seasons at the helm. In 1976 he was replaced by Don DeVoe. The tall, slender DeVoe came to Wyoming after a highly-successful stint at Virginia Tech. Although he stayed just two seasons (he moved on to Tennessee), he brought to Laramie a couple of players who would return Cowboy basketball to greatness, Charles “Tub” Bradley and Kenneth Ollie.

After DeVoe’s departure following the 1977-78 season, the Cowboys struggled hiring a head coach, but finally settled on a guy who had produced outstanding success at the University of Montana. His name was Jim Brandenburg, and he would bring Wyoming basketball back to national prominence.

Flynn Robinson, with his behind the ear jump shot, thrilled Cowboy fans from 1963-65.

The first thing he did was to convince Bradley and Ollie to stay at Wyoming. Cowboy fans would be glad he did. By the time those two were seniors, the Cowboys were one of the nation’s elite teams. Under Brandenburg’s guidance, the Cowboys showed steady improvement. They were 15-12 in 1978-79, 18-10 in 1979-80, and bell-ringers in 1980-81, at 24-6. That team would advance to the NCAA Tournament, beating Howard University in the opening round (78-43), but narrowly losing to Illinois (67-65). It was Bradley and Ollie who keyed the season.

No Wyoming fan will ever forget the final home weekend of the ‘80-81 season, when the Cowboys hosted Brigham Young and Utah in the Fieldhouse. All three teams were involved in a three-way battle for the league title. The BYU game was played first on Thursday, February 26, and it was an epic. The game went two overtimes before the Cowboys came away with an 86-84 win over the Danny Ainge-led Cougars. One of the important figures in the game was a sophomore guard by the name of Mike Jackson who hit two long jumpers in the final minute-and-a-half of regulation to send the game to OT. But it was Bradley who was something to see. He finished with 31 points, including six of eight from the free throw line in the second overtime. It was an unforgettable night in the Fieldhouse.

The Cowboys were not done. The second-half of the weekend doubleheader brought seventh-ranked Utah to town. Even though the Utes had clinched the crown with a victory at CSU two nights before, the Wyoming-Utah game would be a classic in its own right. This one took on a different

BASKETBALL

complexion, a physical, defensive struggle. With Ollie’s 19 points leading the way, the Cowboys beat the Utes, 53-50 to finish with a perfect 14-0 record at home, the first time that had happened since 1946. The two weekend games also concluded the last full season in War Memorial Fieldhouse.

The Cowboys returned to the NCAA Tournament the next season of 1981-82 with Jackson and Bill Garnett leading the way. Wyoming finished 23-7, defeated Southern Cal in the tourney’s first round, then lost a tough one to Patrick Ewing and Georgetown. That certainly was not the end of postseason play during the Brandenburg Era.

Without question it was Brandenburg, Bradley and Ollie who ignited the state of Wyoming, and brought Cowboy basketball back. Because of them a new basketball palace was planned and constructed. Sadly, Bradley and Ollie had already graduated before they could play in the new building. But the ArenaAuditorium was very definitely their legacy. Both Bradley and Brandenburg have since been inducted into the UW Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame.

The final game in the Fieldhouse, one of the greatest home buildings the country had ever seen, came on February 13, 1982. Don Haskins and UTEP received the honor of playing the last game, and saddened every Cowboy fan by winning the game, 45-37 in a typical pre-shot-clock Haskins game.

The Arena-Auditorium opened seven days later, on Feb. 20, 1982, the final game of that season. A record crowd of 15,004 jammed into the new place to watch the Cowboys romp over Air Force, 59-29. It would have been difficult to beat the Cowboys on that energy-filled night. It was the final home game for the Pokes’ Hall of Famer Bill Garnett, and he went out in style with 16 points and 12 rebounds.

Built at a cost of $15,668,200, construction began in November of 1979. At over 200,000 square feet, the Double A has the largest seating capacity in the state. Over its 31-year history it has attracted 73 crowds of over 10,000, and has been sold out 15 times. Wyoming has more than 340 victories in the building.

After that “Dome of Doom” opening, Brandenburg’s real fireworks, however, were yet to come. After three consecutive “quiet” seasons, Brandenburg and his Cowboys made some big noise in 1985-86, thanks to a player who signed at Wyoming after few had recruited him. He would become known as the “Electric Man”, and would finish his career as the greatest player in Cowboy history.

Fennis Dembo was a sophomore in 1985, when the Cowboys embarked on one of the most exciting seasons in 40 years. The team actually lost five of its first nine games that season. But from late December through late March, no team in the country played better. The Cowboys won 18 of their last 23 games of the season, to finish 24-12. Down the stretch, each game became more historic than the last.

The first big one came in the final regular-season game at Brigham Young. The winner of the game would host the Western Athletic Conference Tournament. With Dembo playing at his electric best, the Cowboys upset BYU, 65-62. The WAC was coming to Laramie. The Double A never looked better as the Cowboys hosted the first eight-team WAC Tournament. Things did not look so great when UTEP beat the Pokes in the tournament final, 65-64, to earn the automatic NCAA bid. It would be a blessing in disguise, however.

Although they lost in that WAC finale, the Cowboys were selected to host an NIT game with Texas A&M as the opponent, March 13, 1985. They won that game. The crowd and the way they played earned them a second home game. This one came against Loyola Marymount. The Pokes won that game as well in front of an even bigger and more enthusiastic throng. Because of that the Pokes were surprisingly awarded a third home game. The opponent was Clemson, and the winner would go to New York and the NIT semifinals.

A record-setting crowd of 15,028 jammed the Double A to see their Cowboys take on the ACC opponent. Dembo was at his best, as was his sophomore teammate Eric Leckner. The Cowboys overcame an early Tiger lead, and went on to win 62-57. With the band playing “New York, New York”, and Dembo sitting on the rim at the west end of the floor, it was final, the Cowboys were going to the Big Apple.

They would beat Florida (67-58) to play in the finals, only to lose to Ohio State (73-63). But what a magical season it was, and it set the stage for even bigger doings the next season.

The Pokes fashioned another tremendous season in 1986-87, but like the UTEP loss in the tournament the previous year, experienced the low before enjoying the high.

They lost their final three games of the ‘86-87 regular season, Brigham Young at home and New Mexico and UTEP on the road, to limp into the conference tournament at Albuquerque. But there, they found new life and new ways to win in the WAC tourney, beating Utah by two, UTEP by three, and New Mexico by two in the championship. They had earned the automatic NCAA berth. Making it even more special was the fact the Cowboys were sent to Salt Lake City for the tournament insuring a huge throng of loyal followers.

With Cowboy fans filling nearly half of the Special Events Center, Wyoming upended Virginia (64-60) in the first round of the tournament, and drew UCLA and Reggie Miller in the second round. In one of the best games of his career, Dembo out-dueled Miller to lead the Cowboys to the stunning victory. The Wyoming legend finished with 41 points and nine rebounds, including 16-of-16 free throws, and the Pokes were going to the “Sweet 16” in Seattle. They would lose there to UNLV, which went on to play in the NCAA championship game, but it did nothing to tarnish one of the most sensational seasons in Cowboy history.

Sadly, and surprisingly, Brandenburg left after that season for San Diego State with a cupboard full of outstanding players. He was replaced by Benny Dees, a personable Cowboy basketball letterman who would coach for six seasons. He had the pleasure — despite the immense pressure — of coaching Dembo and Leckner during their senior seasons. That 1987-88 outfit finished with a 26-6 record, winning the WAC Tournament at Provo. The Cowboys defeated San Diego State, Colorado State — on a buzzer shot by Leckner — and UTEP to earn the NCAA’s automatic bid. This time things did not go as well. They lost in the first round to a high-scoring Loyola Marymount team in a shootout, 119-115.

Dees would finish with a 104-77 record over six seasons, including a pair of 20-win campaigns, that NCAA Tournament appearance, and one NIT appearance (1990-91). Dembo would finish his career as the most nationally-recognized Cowboy of all time, and clearly the school’s best. He holds the career record for points scored, is second in steals, third in rebounds, fifth in assists and seventh in blocked shots.

Joby Wright (1994-97) and Larry Shyatt (1998) would direct the Cowboy fortunes for the next five seasons before Steve McClain would take over, and return Wyoming basketball to national prominence.

In his first six seasons, McClain directed Wyoming through one of its most successful periods in history. In four of those six years the Cowboys appeared in postseason play. He posted the fifthbest winning percentage in school history while his teams averaged 20 wins per season through his first five years. His teams captured two of the first four MWC titles, sharing the 2000-01 season, and winning the 2001-02 outright. The back-to-back regular-season conference titles were the first since the 1980-81 and 1981-82 seasons.

McClain coached two All-Americans in his first six seasons, Josh Davis and Marcus Bailey. Bailey was on his way to one of the great careers in hoop history when it was tragically and prematurely ended during the ninth game of his senior year. In a win over South Carolina, he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. He would never play for the Cowboys again.

The high point of the Cowboys’ return to national prominence was their appearance in the 2002 NCAA Tournament. It marked their first appearance since 1988.

In one of the most thrilling games ever in the Double A, the Cowboys edged Utah (57-56) before the biggest crowd in school history (16,089) to win the MWC title outright.

After some anxious moments during Selection Sunday, the Cowboys drew number-six-ranked Gonzaga in the first round of the NCAA West Regional in Albuquerque, N.M. The Zags came into the game with a 29-4 record, and were heavily favored. The Cowboys played maybe their finest game of the season in throwing a balanced attack at the Bulldogs. Davis finished with 11 points, 14 rebounds and five blocked shots. Uche Nsonwu-Amadi added 14 points and Bailey 13. It was another one of those wins that ignited the state, and certainly thrust the Cowboys into the national limelight. They would play Arizona in the second round, and lose to the Wildcats, 68-60, finishing the season with a 22-9 record.

Under Shyatt in 2015, the Pokes won the MW tournament, the program's third conference tournament title, to advance to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2002. HEad Coach Allen Edwards led the Cowboys to a College Basketball Invitational title in 2016-17.

In 2021-22 Head coach Jeff Linder brought the Cowboys to the NCAA Tournament once again in just his second season becoming the second coach to send the Pokes to the tournament in his second season along with Everett Shelton. The Pokes recorded 25 wins during the season for the most since the 2014-15 campaign.

is Wyoming’s all-time scoring leader with 2,311 career points.

EVERETT SHELTON – FATHER OF COWBOY BASKETBALL

The tradition and history of University of Wyoming Cowboy Basketball has its roots in its greatest coach — Everett Shelton.

Shelton coached the Wyoming Cowboys for 19 seasons from the 1939-40 season through the 1958-59 campaign. He led the Cowboys through their most successful period, highlighted by Wyoming’s 1943 NCAA Championship. Coach Shelton ended his UW coaching career having won more games, 328, than any other Poke basketball coach. His all-time coaching record at UW stands at 328-201 (.620).

During his tenure at Wyoming, Shelton captured eight conference championships in: 1941, ‘43, ‘46, ‘47, ‘49, ‘52, ‘53 and ‘58. He also led the Cowboys to eight NCAA appearances in 1941, ‘43, ‘47, ‘48, ‘49, ‘52, ‘53 and ‘58.

He arrived in the Rockies in 1936 when William N. Haraway lured Shelton to Denver to coach the Denver Safeway AAU team. Haraway had attempted to hire another college-coaching legend, Henry Iba of Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State). When Iba turned down the offer, he suggested Haraway hire Shelton.

“You couldn’t obtain a better coach, including myself,” said Iba. At the time, Shelton was coaching his alma mater, Phillips University in Enid, Okla.

In only his second season, Shelton led the Denver Safeway team to its first AAU National Championship in the 1937-38 season. He coached the Colorado Springs Antlers Hotel AAU team in 1938-39 prior to taking the head job at Wyoming.

A great teacher of the game, Shelton is credited with developing the five-man weave offense in 1932. Three of his former players followed him as head coach of the Cowboy Basketball program — Bill Strannigan (1959-60 to 1972-73), who succeeded his mentor; Moe Radovich (1973-74 to 1975-76); and Benny Dees (1987-88 to 1992-93).

Dees was a member of Shelton’s final conference championship team at Wyoming and the final Shelton-coached team at Wyoming to make the NCAA Tournament in 1958. Dees has fond memories of Coach Shelton.

“He was one of the greatest disciplinarians I’ve ever been around, and his self-discipline was extremely strong,” said Dees. “He was an immaculate dresser. He did everything by the numbers. He was a very, very strong personality, and was a tremendous influence on helping me decide what I wanted to do in my life. I thought the world of him.

“His teams were very structured, in the Hank Iba mold. He ran what he called a box-weave offense, and you better have the right foot in the right place at the right time if you wanted to play for him. He was way ahead of his time as a basketball coach.

“When I came here, I was one of those unstructured junior-college players who aggravate me now. I can remember the first practice I played in here. One of my teammates got the rebound and kicked the ball out to me. I took off down the court, and I could hear Coach Shelton hollering, ‘Somebody stop him, gear him down.’ My two years playing under him were up and down. But as time went by and after I left, I found out how special I was to him and how much he meant to me. When I graduated, I could have stayed here at Wyoming as freshmen coach. Probably the biggest mistake I ever made was not staying with him as freshmen coach. He also offered me a job later, after he left Wyoming and was at Sacramento State.

“When I came, he was winding down his career here. We were very aware, as players, of the respect he had from the Wyoming fans. And when you would travel with him and would see the great respect he had from other coaches, you knew you were playing for someone special. He was such a good man.”

Shelton’s involvement in college athletics also included serving as President of the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) and as Commissioner of the Far Western Conference. He was also instrumental as a fundraiser for the construction of Wyoming’s War Memorial Fieldhouse and Stadium. In addition to coaching basketball, Shelton served as UW’s baseball coach for several seasons.

Shelton, who died on April 16, 1974, was posthumously honored with the highest honor in basketball in 1980 when he was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. A former player of his, the legendary Curt Gowdy, was inducted as a broadcaster and has an annual Media Award named after him. University of Wyoming graduate and former Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss is also in the Naismith Hall of Fame.

At the beginning of the 2008-09 season, Kenny Sailors became the first player in Wyoming basketball history to have his jersey displayed in the Arena-Auditorium Here, Sailors watches as his No. 4 jersey is hung from the rafters in the Double A.

KENNY SAILORS CREATOR OF THE JUMP SHOT & TWO-TIME NATIONAL PLAYER OF THE

One of the most distinctive aspects of the modern game of basketball is the graceful athletic abilities basketball players display while in the air. But the game of basketball was not always played that way. It was played with both feet on the ground — that is until a college player from Wyoming changed the game forever with an innovative new technique — the jump shot.

Kenny Sailors grew up in Hillsdale and Laramie, Wyo. When Sailors was in junior high school, he and his older brother of three years, Bud, were playing a pickup game. In a Nov. 20, 1988, feature story in the Anchorage Alaska Daily News, the two brothers described the first jump shot.

“It was just a weapon that came naturally,” said Kenny. “Bud was big, and he was fast enough to stop my drive. I just did it (the jump shot) out of necessity.”

“We played quite a bit before he figured out he could dribble and get that one-handed shot on me,” said Bud. “That was the first time I’d run into it. I was almost six feet five already. I don’t care how tall you are, you’re either going to foul him or he’s going to make it. He was real accurate with it.”

The shot that Sailors is credited with inventing, the jump shot, is commonplace in today’s game, but was unheard of in the 1930’s and 40’s when Sailors perfected it at the high school and college level.

“If your feet left the floor,” said Sailors, “you were a freak. You were on the bench. It’s hard for people to believe.”

By the time Sailors entered his junior year at the University of Wyoming, he had become so proficient at his jump shot that he earned All-America honors while leading Wyoming to the 1943 NCAA Championship.

Sportswriters in New York were dazzled by Sailors’ shooting style as he led Wyoming to a 46-34 victory over Georgetown in the championship game in Madison Square Garden. Fittingly, he led both teams in scoring with 16 points. He was later presented the Chuck Taylor award, symbolic of being selected the outstanding college player in the nation.

In describing the championship game, the New York Times story read as follows, “Sailors was the key man. His ability to dribble through and around any type of defense was uncanny, just as was his electrifying one-handed shot.”

Joe Cummisky, Sports Editor of the New York newspaper PM, wrote, “This Sailors can do everything with a basketball but tie a seaman’s knot. And, given time, and a chance to dribble two steps, he’d probably be able to do that. Sailors was the hand who held the S.S. Wyoming together when everybody was figuring Georgetown was in. It’s enough to say that Sailors — also voted the most valuable player in the NCAA final as sort of an anti-climactic gesture — is quite a ballplayer. In closing, I wonder if Georgetown has ever heard of that old sea chanty entitled ‘Sailors Beware’ ?”

Following Wyoming’s national championship, Sailors enlisted in World War II where he served in the Marine Corps. Following the war, Sailors returned to Wyoming to finish his eligibility in 1946. Once again, he earned All-America honors, and was named the Helms Foundation College Player of the Year.

Sailors went on to play in the National Basketball Association (NBA), which was founded in 1946 — the year Sailors graduated from UW. He went on to play five seasons for the Cleveland Rebels, Providence Steamrollers, the original Denver Nuggets, the Boston Celtics and the Baltimore Bullets. His salary was a far cry from today’s multimillion dollar contracts — Sailors made about $7,000 per season.

Kenny Sailors passed away in 2016 and will forever be remembered by Cowboy fans as one of the greatest Cowboy players, and he will be remembered in the history of the game as one of the pioneers who made basketball the exciting game it is today.

1943 NCAA CHAMPIONS

It was the greatest basketball season in University of Wyoming history. A team led by three All-Americans and the most successful coach in Cowboy history brought Wyoming great pride by winning the 1943 NCAA Championship.

The 1942-43 basketball season is one that Cowboy fans will never forget. It was also a season that almost never happened. On Nov. 10, 1942, the presidents of several Colorado colleges voted to cancel their universities’ 1942-43 basketball and spring sport seasons due to World War II.

In response, UW President J.L. Morrill and the UW faculty athletic committee issued a statement saying, “The announcement by the Colorado college presidents probably anticipates what is inevitable for colleges and universities in this war emergency. Travel restrictions and the forthcoming lower draft age doubtless will make it impossible to conduct any normal program of intercollegiate athletics. Wyoming believes it right and proper for the Colorado institutions to meet the situation as they see fit, and the Colorado decision is accepted without criticism or complaint by our University.

“If it is necessary to discontinue intercollegiate athletics the University of Wyoming will gladly comply. Meantime, it is our hope and intention to undertake the eastern basketball trip which has been scheduled late in December, and to decide jointly with other members of the Mountain States Intercollegiate Athletic Conference at their regular December meeting, the future status of our athletic activities in this region.”

It was a time in the country’s history that filled everyone with doubts about the future of the country and the world. But, in the midst of much doubt and uncertainty, the Cowboy basketball team, under the direction of coach Ev Shelton and All-American Kenny Sailors, provided Wyoming fans an escape and a reason to cheer.

Wyoming began the season with three wins against a team of all-stars from Fort Warren. The Cowboys then took off on an eastern road swing. The Cowboys road trip east started on a disappointing note losing to Duquesne by the score of 33-43, but that loss would prove to be a very rare occurrence for “The Punchers”, as some writers referred to them at the time. After the Duquesne loss, Wyoming ran off a string of 23 consecutive victories on way to a 31-2 record and a 10-0 record in the conference.

Through that 23-game winning streak, Wyoming posted four-game sweeps of rivals Colorado State and Utah, and a three-game sweep of Brigham Young. The Pokes outscored their opponents by an average of 25.6 points per game. It wasn’t until the semifinals of the National AAU Tournament in Denver that Wyoming lost its only other game of the season — to the Denver Legion AAU team, 33-41.

Next up for the Cowboys loomed the NCAA Tournament where the Pokes were soon to take their place in college basketball history. In the NCAA Western Regional in Kansas City, Mo., Wyoming began with a 53-50 win over Oklahoma followed by another down-to-the-wire victory over Texas, 58-54. The West Regional Championship earned the Cowboys a trip to Madison Square Garden to face the NCAA Eastern Regional Champion, Georgetown.

The Georgetown game thrilled fans in Madison Square Garden, with seven ties and seven lead changes. Just prior to the half, Kenny Sailors’ basket with five seconds remaining gave Wyoming an 18-16 halftime lead. With seven minutes remaining in the game, Georgetown built a 31-26 lead. Wyoming evened the score at 31 following baskets by Jimmy Collins and Sailors and a free throw from center Milo Komenich. The final four minutes belonged to Wyoming. Behind Collins sparkling play off the bench, Wyoming built the lead to a final 46-34 tally, outscoring the Hoyas 15-3 down the stretch.

In an unprecedented matchup two nights later, the Cowboys and St. John’s University met in a contest that pitted the NCAA Champion and the National Invitation Tournament Champion. The game, also played in Madison Square Garden, was devised to benefit the Red Cross. Before 18,000 screaming New York fans, who turned out in support of the hometown St. John’s Redmen, Wyoming again showed the poise of a veteran team.

Despite suffering the loss of center Komenich, who fouled out shortly before the game ended in a 46-46 tie at the end of regulation, the Pokes pulled together to earn the undisputed title of National Champion. Floyd Volker was the hero for the Cowboys in overtime, scoring five of Wyoming’s six overtime points, while the Wyoming defense held St. John’s to only one point in the extra period for a 52-47 win.

As the season ended, Sailors, Komenich and Jim Weir earned All-America honors. Sailors was also awarded the Chuck Taylor award as the outstanding college player in the nation.

The Cowboys and their fans had much to be proud of in regard to their championship season, but perhaps nothing brought more pride than the fact that seven members of the championship team went on to serve in the military during World War II.

At a postseason banquet honoring the team in Cheyenne, Wyoming’s president J.L. Morrill said, “These fine young men will soon be in the armed services. Who doubts the victory there.”

WYOMING’S ALL-CENTURY TEAM

In one of the greatest, most meaningful weekends in Cowboy basketball history, the University of Wyoming celebrated 100 years of hoops with a reunion of lettermen, and an honoring of its All-Century team on January 15, 2005. Included in the weekend celebration was a ceremony unveiling a permanent display for the 1943 national championship trophy housed in the Arena-Auditorium.

At halftime of Wyoming’s game with Utah, the All-Century team was introduced. Its 10 members were chosen in late November during balloting by UW fans. The team spans more than 60 years of Cowboy basketball, from Kenny Sailors to Marcus Bailey.

All 10 players chosen scored at least 1,000 points, and each is known for some aspect of his career. The all-time scorer (Fennis Dembo), rebounder (Reginald Slater) and shot blocker (Theo Ratliff) are included on the team.

Nine of the 10 members—Ratliff could not make the celebration because his Portland Trailblazers were in the midst of their NBA schedule—were honored at halftime.

The 10 Members of the Team:

Marcus Bailey (Cheyenne, Wyo., 2000-03): Bailey scored in double figures in 72 of 101 career games, and led the Cowboys to two consecutive Mountain West Conference titles, and to the second round of the 2002 NCAA Tournament.

Charles Bradley (Edgewood, Md, 1978-81): Bradley ranked as one of the greatest players in Western Athletic Conference history. He guided the Cowboys to the 1981 WAC title and into the NCAA Tournament. He finished his career as the second-leading scorer, and was a three-time first-team All-WAC selection.

Fennis Dembo (San Antonio, Texas, 1985-88): A three-time All-WAC pick, Dembo was the league’s Player of the Year in 1987. He is Woming’s all-time leading scorer. He led the Cowboys to the finals of the 1986 NIT, and the 1987 and 1988 NCAA Tournaments.

Bill Garnett (Denver, Colo., 1979-82): Garnett was a four-year starter who helped the Pokes to two NCAA Tournament appearances. He was a WAC Player of the Year, and earned All-American honors.

Eric Leckner (Manhattan Beach, Calif., 1985-88): As a four-year starter at center for the Cowboys, Leckner played a huge role in Wyoming’s 1986 NIT runner-up team as well as the 1987 and 1988 NCAA Tournament teams. A two-time first-team selection, he ranks fourth on Wyoming’s scoring list.

Theo Ratliff (Demopolis, Ala., 1992-95): UW’s all-time leading shot blocker. He was an All-WAC first-team selection for two years in a row. Not only does he own all the shot-blocking records, but he finished in the top 15 in scoring and rebounding.

Flynn Robinson (Elgin, Ill., 1963-65): In three seasons as a Cowboy, Flynn Robinson broke every major UW record except rebounding. He became the 20th collegian nationally to break the 2,000-point barrier.

Kenneth Sailors (Hillsdale, Wyo., 1941-43, ‘46): The only basketball player in UW history to earn All-American honors three times. He was the unanimous selection for college basketball Player of the Year in 1943. He led the Cowboys to the 1943 NCAA Championship. He is credited with inventing the modern jump shot.

Reginald Slater (Houston, Texas, 1989-92): UW’s all-time leading rebounder, Slater was the first player in WAC history to lead the league in rebounding for three straight seasons. He was the 1992 WAC Player of the Year.

Tony Windis (Long Island, N.Y., 1957-59): Windis was one of the finest pure shooters ever to play at Wyoming. He is second alltime in scoring average for a career, averaging 21.2 points per game. He averaged 24.4 points per game during the 1958-59 season, his senior year.

Little Red Gym

(1904-05 through 1923-24)

In January, 1903 the Wyoming State Legislature appropriated $15,000 to construct a gymnasium, “The Gym,” capacity 1,000. Called the Little Red Gym because of the color of the building’s bricks, this was the first tangible evidence that the governing authorities of the state assumed any responsibility for the recreational side of student life at UW.

The birthplace of Cowboy basketball, the first recorded men’s game in the Little Red Gym was an exhibition on March 24, 1905, between two UW squads.

Wyoming was 52-40 in the early years of Cowboy Basketball in the Little Red Gym.

After the Half Acre Gym was built, the Little Red Gym was used primarily as a theatre and assembly hall. It sat where the modern day A&S building is on campus.

“I was a rabid Cowboy Basketball fan as a boy growing up in Cheyenne. I used to watch games in Half Acre from the balcony with my legs hanging over the edge. Les Witte and Ed McGinty were some of my favorite players to watch.

“Hell’s Half Acre had one of the biggest playing courts in America at the time and we used to run teams to death there. Teams died at the altitude and we could play with anyone. Even the name, Hell’s Half Acre, made it memorable.

“Wyoming had as good of fans as anywhere in America. They always packed the place.

“Wyoming Basketball means a lot to me.”

— Curt Gowdy

Half Acre Gym

(1924-25 through 1950-51)

Construction of the Half Acre Gym began in 1923, at a cost of $150,000. Considered a massive facility, the gym was appoximately one-half acre in size, and the largest and most modern facility of the time between Syracuse University and California, according to a Branding Iron article from 1924. Half Acre had a capacity of over 4,000, nearly four times the size of the Little Red Gym.

The Half Acre Gym was officially dedicated on January 23, 1925, when Wyoming beat Utah 31-29 in an overtime game.

The gym was also used by fans during away games. Play-byplay action was posted on the “Grid Board”, a grid-graph setup on the floor that flashed action by way of telegraph messages from a signal sent by the Western Union Telegraph Company. Crowds of 1,000 or more were reported to attend these events.

Dubbed “Hell’s Half Acre” because of the difficulty for opponents to win there, Wyoming played eight perfect seasons in this gym. Coach Everett F. Shelton had three undefeated home seasons in a row in 1941, 1942 and 1943. Other spotless years were 1929, 1930, 1933, 1934 and 1947.

In 26 seasons from January of 1925 to March of 1951, the Pokes won 222 games, losing only 44 in the Half Acre Gym.

“In those days Half Acre was the largest facility in the area. It was a good floor to play and dribble on, even compared to some of the largest arenas in the country. There was lots of room under the baskets so that I could finish my drives and not run into a wall like at some other gyms. Hell’s Half Acre was a great place to play.

“We bussed in folks from all over the state for games in that gym. Sometimes there were so many fans that there was no place to put them. Fans were hanging from the rafters. Since they came from so far away UW officials squeezed in as many as they could and then put the rest in other buildings on campus so they could follow the games from there.”

War Memorial Fieldhouse

(1951-52 through 1981-82)

Construction of the War Memorial Fieldhouse began in August of 1949. Cost to construct the Fieldhouse was estimated at $1,000,000. Exact cost was not known since the football stadium was built at the same time.

The Fieldhouse dedication was Dec. 14-15, 1951, with games against St. Mary’s (Calif.) and Indiana. UW defeated the Gaels, 7869, but lost to the Hoosiers by two points, 57-55. Over that weekend, Colorado A&M also played those visiting two teams in War Memorial Fieldhouse.

At the time it was built, War Memorial Fieldhouse was the largest building in the state of Wyoming, 69,680 square feet in area. The Fieldhouse had a state-of-the-art $20,000 removable basketball floor which was raised 16 inches off the tanbark arena floor.

The building is a War Memorial to all Wyoming World War II veterans. An all-purpose facility, the Fieldhouse is still used for its artificial turf surface and 160-meter track.

Jim Brandenburg’s 1980-81 Cowboy squad, featuring Charles Bradley and Bill Garnett, went undefeated at home in the Fieldhouse that season.

In 31 seasons of Cowboy Basketball in the Fieldhouse, 1,550,135 fans saw 381 games. The largest crowd, 10,580, coming for a Cowboy win over BYU, 63-59, on Feb. 27, 1953.

“The first Cowboy Basketball game I saw was in the winter of ‘57. We would drive across the state from Kemmerer to Laramie whenever my family could.

“War Memorial Fieldhouse was a great facility for basketball. The crowd was so close to the floor and that place had its own unique atmosphere. More than once I saw players trip and almost fall when they were getting on the raised floor. The old trophy room on the south end had a lot of great memories.

“I’ll always remember the Arizona booster who would bring a drum to the games here. He would later help several of us Wyoming fans get tickets to a sold-out Arizona and Kansas State game, while we were in Manhattan for a meeting.

“The most memorable game for me in that building was in 1981 when we beat BYU in double overtime. Wyoming had Charles Bradley and Bill Garnett and BYU had Danny Ainge. What a great game.”

Arena-Auditorium

(1982-83 through present)

In February 22, 1979, the Joint Appropriations Committee of the state legislature approved $15,668,200 for the new Arena-Auditorium. Construction began in November of that year.

The first Cowboy game played in the ArenaAuditorium was February 20, 1982. Wyoming defeated Air Force 59-29 in the final home game of that season before a capacity crowd of 15,004.

With nearly 200,000 square feet, the ArenaAuditorium still embraces the largest indoor seating capacity within the State of Wyoming.

Over the 36-year history of the Arena-Auditorium, Cowboy Basketball has attracted 73 crowds over 10,000. There have been 15 sellouts (crowds of 15,000 or more) in the history of the Double A. The largest crowd, 16,089, to date coming March 2, 2002, to watch UW defeat Utah 57-56, for the conference title.

Tagged “The Dome of Doom” by Wyoming fans, the Cowboys have won 72 percent of their home games in the Double A. Entering the 2022-23 season and are nearing 1,000 wins at home.

“I saw my first Cowboy game in ‘44 at the base in Cheyenne. The national championship team played and I got in free since I was a paperboy at the time. I did make it over to Laramie to see some games in Half Acre and that was an exciting place to watch a game. The crowds were always large since we had such a good team.

“One of the best players, if not the best, that I’ve watched in UW’s facilities over the years was John Pilch. He was nothing but elbows and a great player, a tough, tough player.

“Most of the games I’ve watched were in the Fieldhouse and the Arena. The Fieldhouse always made me a little jumpy because that place would literally shake when the crowd would get going.

“Wyoming’s basketball facilities have always been as good as anyone’s in the nation, if not better. Laramie has always been a good place to watch a game.” —
