Glen Alexander Memorial Alumni Tournament

For those you who didn't have the pleasure of knowing Glen her is a brief bio on his time and impact on Churchill Basketball.

In Sept 1969 Glen got a job at Winston Churchill, and so completed his Education degree at summer and night school with the U of L graduating in 1971. For many years (12) he taught ½ time so that he could farm and teach. During those years he coached: Griffin basketball at Churchill 1969-72, winning provincials in 1972, U of L women's team, 1972-73 and the Bulldogs 1973-86.

His impact was far reaching as many of the players he coached are the most active alumnus and three have been recognized on the Churchill Wall of Fame for their various athletic achievements. A true Churchillian!

And so...
