Great story! I graduated in '68, and remember all the turmoil surrounding the Al-Rupp confrontation. It was especially hard because we lost to those racists. Wish I'd been around for "the rest of the story" - but military duty called, and I missed the entire 68-69 season.

Graduated in '68 as well and remember all that turmoil as well. Missed the military part in that Vietnam era due to 4F for bad ears.

Also graduated in '68. Read about the Rick Mount shot in the Stars & Stripes while in Korea.
