Historical NoteReturn to Top

Art "Baldy" Haman was a member of the University of Wyoming Cowboys mens basketball team from 1931-1934. He was one of Coach Dutch Witte's starting five in the 1934 squad who were named AAU All-Americans. The Cowboys reeled off 20 straight wins in 1934, finished the season with a conference championship and a 26-3 record, and were named the 1934 National Champions by the Helms Athletic Foundation, the only collegiate voting poll of the era. In 1935, Haman accepted an offer to play basketball with the Denver Athletic Club team in Denver, Colorado.
