Wins And Losses "Charlie was Drury's first 1,000 point scorer and its first basketball player to earn NAIA All-American honors. He was also a First Team All-MCAU selection and was nominated to join the USA Olympic All-Star team." After college, 1956, young, eager, capable, I was set. Like all of us, though, my story has been interrupted and interfered with several times over the decades, by injuries, a failed marriage, debilitating illnesses, professional setbacks, many of the surprises and disappointments common to us all. It is not my objective to write only about myself. My life seemed so ordinary over the years, hardly worth writing about, but my family, and my ancestry, that's a different matter. The main purpose of this book, other than telling my story, is to acquaint other descendants of Simon Crosby with our family here in the Midwest. My other desire is to express appreciation for the opportunities I've had because of my association with Drury College, now Drury University. That experience played a key role in my success first as a college student, then as a basketball player, then as a coach early in my career.
