The greatest tradition in the Ohio Valley Conference was recalled at the third annual Racer Hoopalooza when Murray State men's basketball welcomed honorees Coach Scott Edgar and player Marcus brown at the CFSB Center in Murray, Kentucky.
Â
Started in 2013, the event has been a must for Racer fans as well for those who played and coached, as the proud history and tradition of the program is celebrated.
Â
Edgar and Brown followed past Hoopalooza honorees Coach Mark Gottfried (2013) and Coach Cal Luther & his 1964 NCAA team (2014).
Â
Arriving at Murray State in 1991, Coach Edgar's teams played an up-tempo style and won 79 games plus three OVC regular season championships and two OVC Tournament titles. Edgar is currently the head coach at Eastern Oklahoma State College in Wilburton, Oklahoma.
Â
Marcus Brown, out of West Memphis, Arkansas, played for the Racers from 1992-96 and today is still the third all-time scorer at MSU with 2,236 points. He was inducted into the MSU Hall of Fame in 2010 and his jersey No. 5 was retired. Brown was drafted by the Portland Trailblazers of the NBA in 1996 and enjoyed a long career playing for several teams in the Euro League.
Â
After a social hour and silent auction of select MSU memorabilia, the crowd of more than 300 enjoyed a buffet dinner from Racer Hospitality.
Â
The Racer Hoopalooza will head to the golf course Friday morning for a scramble at Miller Memorial Country Club starting at 8 a.m. Pickup games are on the schedule in the afternoon at 2:30 p.m. at the CFSB Center.
