university of Maryland...men's basketball program history

 

Paul McMullen, sports writer for The Sun, will give a lecture titled "Maryland Basketball: Tales from Cole Field House," at Twelve noon on Wednesday, February. 25, in Shriver Hall Auditorium on the Johns Hopkins University's Homewood campus, 3400 N. Charles St. in Baltimore.

 

Paul will recall the exciting, colorful and oftentimes very tragic story of Maryland basketball during the Cole Field House era. He will chronicle the history of the University of Maryland men's basketball program from 1955 to 2002 and describe how teams led by All-American players Len Elmore, Albert King, Tom McMillen, John Lucas, Walt Williams, Len Bias, Joe Smith, Steve Francis and Juan Dixon earned their incredible 485-151 record at Cole Field House. McMullen's Johns Hopkins University Press book shares the same title as the lecture and features a foreword by Len Elmore. The book will be on sale and for signing immediately after the lecture.

McMullen's book looks back at the careers of coaches Bud Millikan, who took the Terps to their first ACC title in 1958; Lefty Driesell, who nearly succeeded in making Maryland "the UCLA of the East;" and Gary Williams, the former Terp who returned in 1989 to lead the team to two consecutive NCAA Final Fours and its first NCAA national championship.

He also follows the fortunes and misfortunes of the basketball program off the court as well, from NCAA recruiting violations and the death of Len Bias to the post-collegiate success of the team's players and coaches.

This lecture is part of the Wednesday Noon Series presented by The Johns Hopkins University Office of Special Events, now in its Thirty Eighth season of cultural programming on the Homewood campus. This event is co-sponsored by The Johns Hopkins University Press and there is no charge for admission.
