Re: Kevin Houston. The year he led the nation in scoring, he also led the nation in free-throw shooting. He was just a great all-around shooter.
Army also had a great player in the late '70s named Gary Winton. Not a shooter at all, but a 6-5 battering ram who went 2,000-plus points and 1,000-plus rebounds in his career. He was a load who got all his points within five feet of the basket. Terrible foul shooter, though, and he went to the line a lot. He would pummel Seton Hall; the Pirates would always lose the first one or two games after playing Army. Mainly because Winton physically abused them. The ultimate banger.
When Kevin Houston scored 53 points in the MAAC tourney against Fordham, he surpassed Winton as the Cadets' all-time leading scorer.
