1957-1958 Yearbook

LEON McQUEEN COACH GROOVER KEITH BOLER FRED MASSEY DWIGHT SMITH PETE STONE GERALD CASEY JIM CITTY HAROLD NORWOOD BENNETT WOOD Entire College Is Delighted By The Return Of Basketball Harding took the basketball court once again after an absence of nearly eighteen long years. Coach Hugh Groover inherited the job of piloting the new Bisons after his successful tenure with the Harding Academy. It took him and his men two months of grueling practice to prepare for the new entry to Arkansas Intercollegiate basketball. New suits of white and gold were issued to the eager basketball boys before their first contest against Southern Baptist College. Preliminary bouts were played against the Beebe Junior College to sharpen the eyes of the smart, hard working herd. While the team was perspiring on the court, fans were busy selling season tickets, selecting cheerleaders, staging pep rallies, and working up anticipation over the forth-coming opportunity to support a basketball five of their very own. How could we help but have a successful year with this team work whether win or draw, because success at Harding is always measured in units of effort.
