Rankings fromAP Poll

The1962–63 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team representedGeorgetown University during the1962–63 NCAA University Division college basketball season.Tommy O'Keefe coached them in his third season as head coach, but Georgetown's head coaching position paid so little that he could only coach part-time and held a full-time job outside of coaching in order to meet his financial obligations, impairing his ability to recruit players.^[1]^[2] The team was an independent and played its home games atMcDonough Gymnasium on the Georgetown campus inWashington, D.C. It finished with a record of 13–13 and had no post-season play.

Season recap

[edit]

After a successful1961–62 season, Georgetown lost a school-record eight seniors to graduation. The departed players had been responsible for 79.9% of the team's scoring. Only twolettermen returned for 1962–63, and the only starter to return was thepoint guard, juniorguard Jim Christy. In order to complete his roster, O'Keefe had to put five walk-ons on the 1962–63 team and rely on six newcomers in all.^[3]^[4]

Christy and sophomoreforward Jim Barry – newly arrived on the varsity team after a year on the freshman team, and destined to become perhaps the greatest player of Georgetown men's basketball's "Classic Era" (1943–1972) – were the main scoring threats on the team. They scored a combined 1,000 points during the 1962–63 season, and their performance allowed the inexperienced team to avoid a disastrous season in a rebuilding year.^[3]^[4]

Barry made his varsity debut in the first game of the season againstSt. Joseph's and scored 29 points, which remains the school scoring record for a debut game. Through the first eight games, he averaged 16.5 points per game, the best on the team. Despite his efforts, however, the Hoyas returned home with a record of 2–7 after losing both their games in theMotor City Classic inDetroit,Michigan. Barry then began to turn in a lengthy list of high-scoring performances, and Georgetown embarked on a six-game winning streak – the longest Georgetown winning streak since the1952–53 team opened 6–0 – that pushed its record to 8–7. During the streak, Barry averaged 28.9 points per game and scored 31 points againstLoyola and 41 againstNavy.^[4]

The winning streak ended with Georgetown losing all three games during a tough road trip in which they visitedNiagara,Syracuse, andMaryland. Barry averaged 25.7 points per game in the three losses. Coming home with an 8–10 record, the Hoyas began another winning streak, winning five straight to move to 13–10 on the year, with Barry scoring 39 points againstManhattan and 21, 22, 25, and 28 points in the other four wins.^[4]

For his part, Jim Christy appeared in 24 games and scored in double figures in 22 of them. His top games of the year included 26 points against Maryland, 34 againstHoly Cross, and 32 againstRhode Island.^[3]

The Hoyas closed out the season with three straight losses, but Barry had one more great performance. In the second-to-last game of the year, Georgetown visitedLa Salle at thePalestra inPhiladelphia,Pennsylvania, on February 26, 1963. Barry scored 30 points, and Philadelphia-area sportswriters judged it the best performance of the year at the Palestra, exceeding even the accomplishments there ofPrinceton'sBill Bradley andNew York University'sBarry Kramer during the season. Jim Barry ended the season scoring 20 or more points in 16 games and 30 or more points in six games, averaging a school-record 22.8 points per game, fourth among all sophomores in theUnited States.^[4]

The team finished with a record of 13–13, the only team that did not have a winning record in O'Keefe's six seasons as head coach. However, it was a creditable record against a tough schedule in a rebuilding year that saw them win 11 of their last 17 games.^[3]^[4]

The team was not ranked in the Top 20 in theAssociated Press Poll orCoaches' Poll at any time.^[5]^[6]

Roster

[edit]

From the1958–59 season through the1967–68 season, Georgetown players wore even-numberedjerseys for home games and odd-numbered ones for away games; for example, a player would wear No. 10 at home and No. 11 on the road. Players are listed below by the even numbers they wore at home.^[7]
