Trivia answer: Wilt Chamberlain
averaged 48.5 minutes per game for the Philadelphia Warriors in the
1961-62 season. Yes, that’s more time than the normal game. The
Warriors played 50 extra minutes in that 80-game season due to seven
overtime games – five with one extra period, one with two and one
with three. So, the team’s average was 48.6 minutes. Correct
answers, in order, were provided by John “Blade/Lefty” McCauley,
Chuck Langerman, Gerry Sasse, Ted Rauch, Dan Solis-Cohen, Kevin
Lauer and George Orsino. Thanks to all participants!
Our thoughts and prayers are with the
family and friends of Mike Gale. Mike, an Overbrook product, 11 year
player in the NBA/ABA and cousin of former Daily News statman
Keith Hines, has passed away. RIP, Mike. Click

Tedbit—Can’t say this for sure,
but it’s possible
Malvern Prep grad Phil Gosselin
yesterday vs. the Marlins became just the second
Public/Catholic/Inter-Ac product to homer twice in a game for the
Phillies. Slugger Del Ennis (Olney, 288 career homers) accomplished
that feat at least once (and likely numerous times) – in a 17-8 win
at Cincinnati n 1953. According to an Inquirer story, thieves had
broken into the players’ hotel rooms the previous day and stolen a
total of $150. Not exactly a gigantic haul, but not bad for 1953, I
guess. The homers were No. 8 and 9 in Phil’s career and his first
two with the Phillies. Congrats, Phil!

Blurb from Chuck Langerman on former MLB pitcher Bob Sebra (RIP).
Gloucester Catholic ace pitcher Bob Sebra in 1980 was (9-0) with two
no-hitters.
He struck out 103
batters and
finished with an earned run average of 0.70.
Gloucester Catholic finished the season (24-0) as
the only undefeated
team in the state,
a feat not accomplished since 1958.
Amazingly,
"The Newark Star Ledger" did
not rank
them the Number-one team in the state. They ranked Livingston
High School (28-2-1) of
Essex County the top team in the state. Former New Jersey Governor Chris
Christie was
a catcher and designated
hitter on that 1980 Livingston team.
