Editor’s note: The following information was put together by “Stat Rat” Jim Craig, a longtime follower of Wyoming high school sports, as part of his ongoing research into Wyoming high school basketball. Mr. Craig has spent numerous hours researching Wyoming high school basketball, and I’m proud to share his research here. Thanks to the “Stat Rat” for putting in the time to expand the knowledge base of Wyoming high school basketball!
Noteworthy Events of the 1963-1964 Season
1. Laramie takes it all—Only one game shy of perfection, the Laramie Plainsmen swooped through their opposition, posting an impressive 22-1 mark in claiming the Class AA championship. Cheyenne Central hung the only loss on Gem City crew at the south regional in Rawlins, definitely Laramie’s poorest performance of the season, but the Indians had played Laramie close in the home-and-home series, and the loss wasn’t a huge surprise. Northern region foe Sheridan was expected to give Laramie a tussle at state, and the two teams didn’t disappoint as Laramie eked out a two-point semifinal win. Riverton repeated as a finalist again but couldn’t match Laramie’s depth, and the Plainsmen claimed their first state hoops crown since 1934.

3. University Prep shines—Playing a schedule that covered the state from Kemmerer to Newcastle, University Prep claimed its first Class A championship since moving up into the larger school classification the season before. The Buckaroos played five games versus Class AA opponents—losing only to Natrona—and tied Wheatland for conference honors by February’s end. University Prep breezed through district play, won its state tourney opener easily, and then ousted defending champion Lovell in a classic overtime battle in the semifinals. Finals opponent Star Valley was easily handled by the red-hot Buckaroos, and the championship trophy was Albany County’s second championship on that mid-March Saturday.

Lusk—Rich Pfister
Star Valley—Doran Erickson; Robert McKim
University Prep—Joe Pierantoni; Ron McCullough
Wheatland—Steve Boughn
5. A three-peat for Shoshoni—It’s this writer’s belief that any of four Class B Big Horn Basin schools could’ve been state champions, but since the NW only sent two representatives, it was fitting that both schools were finalists. Those two finalists were Shoshoni and Manderson, while Byron and St. Stephens were on the outside looking in, although both teams were ranked ahead of their conference counterparts in the polls. Shoshoni, in fact, had lost to each of the other three BHB teams during the regular season. The No. 1 team according to the pollsters was Big Piney, as the Punchers were undefeated until the final weekend of the regular season—a loss to Class A Jackson—and had sailed through SW district play as the top seed. Big Piney drew Shoshoni in the semifinals and lost by a point to the Wranglers. Manderson easily handled Saratoga to gain the other finals spot. Shoshoni and Manderson staged a classic finals battle with the Wranglers winning by two. It was the first hoops three-peat in over a decade as Byron was the last school to do so in 1947-1950.
6. Class B all-state tourney selections—
Big Piney—Paul Kulinski; Robbie Douglas
Glenrock—Roger Curtis
Manderson—Alan Paxton; Gary Wieland
Saratoga—George Patton
Shoshoni—Eli Bebout; Dennis Lawrence
Tongue River—Cedric Alley
Upton—Rex Harvey
7. Chugwater surprises them all—There have been surprise state champions throughout the years of Wyoming prep hoops, and Chugwater’s 1963-64 state title should rank among the top 10 at least. Take a quick look at the polls entering district play and nowhere would one see the Chugwater school listed. The Class C Buffaloes had a relatively successful regular season, finishing third in conference play, several games behind champion Albin and runner-up Veteran. Chugwater lost its opening game in district play to Carpenter and had to win its next three consolation games to qualify for state. The Buffaloes did just that, then exacted some revenge on Carpenter by winning the third-place game, finishing their district experience with a 4-1 record. At state, Chugwater won the opener, then easily defeated Albin in the semifinals, besting a Wildcat team that had defeated the Buffaloes twice during regular-season play. In the finals, Chugwater continued its tourney win streak to seven games as it defeated defending state champion Kaycee. The old coaching bromide is to “peak at tourney time” and that’s exactly what Chugwater accomplished.

12. Kennedy assassination—President John Kennedy’s assassination understandably dominated the newsprint in late November, normally a time when sports editors would print up basketball schedules and speculate on various teams’ chances. Because of this, some of the schedules might be missing a game or two, particularly out-of-state opponents of the smaller schools. If the listing has 18 regular-season games, that’s the maximum allowed under WHSAA rules at that time, although regular-season tourney play—e.g. playing two games in one day—could increase that amount.
13. Ten Sleep/Kaycee battle—Game officials had to halt the contest at Kaycee between the Buckaroos and Ten Sleep at halftime with the home team leading 43-30. According to a UPI release, “Roughness broke out at several points in the game, causing several delays, and finally its premature end.” Kaycee coach Joe Lindsey drove his sophomore guard, Jimmy Anderson, to the Buffalo hospital to sew up a large gash above one of his eyes. In a later article, Coach Lindsey explained further, “The Ten Sleep school officials were unhappy with the officiating.” He elaborated that the Ten Sleep officials did not take their boys home because of reported unsportsmanlike conduct on the part of either team.
14. Class AA regional seeding—The WHSAA did away with “luck of the draw” regional tournament pairings and based placement according to two different seeding systems. In the south region, the seeding was based on conference record as all six teams played one another home and away during the regular season. This was not the case in the northern region as the seven teams did not play a conference schedule; in fact, some teams never faced each other at all during regular-season play. It was decided to seed based on overall records. Celebrating this change in procedure in particular was Riverton, which felt the school got shafted by the luck of the draw a season ago. Riverton, then at a 19-1 mark, drew Casper Natrona in the first round of regional play. The Mustangs were the No. 3 ranked team in the state at the time.
15. Still coaching—Former Wyoming high school coach V. Joseph Schwartz was named new coach for the Wyoming Penitentiary basketball team. Coach Schwartz was sentenced to two to five years in prison for embezzlement as superintendent of the Wyoming Industrial Institute. Having coaching credentials can come in handy in the oddest of places.
16. A host of Haases—Veteran coach James Patterson had five players with the surname Haas to choose from: senior George, sophomores Dennis and Gary, and freshmen Bill and Galen. They’re all cousins with George and Bill as brothers as well as siblings Gary and Dennis. Two more Haas youngsters were on the junior high team. The hoard of Haases, along with Stan Smith and Jim Fullmer, helped the Eagles to a 21-3 mark and a third-place state tourney finish.
17. Midseason change at St. Stephens—St. Stephens head coach Chuck Murray stepped down from head coaching duties the second weekend of February. The Eagles, ranked among the top five Class B teams in the state, had assistant coach Charles Wells step in to finish out the remainder of the season. Murray had been in hot water for his conduct on a road game to Byron during football season, being reprimanded by the WHSAA. Murray continued in his capacity as a St. Stephens faculty member. Wells was an alum of Utah, where he played football and was drafted by the Baltimore Colts. He also played for Oakland in the AFL and Calgary in the CFL.

Because the five Class AA Big Horn Basin teams opted again to play a traditional full conference schedule, both Casper Natrona and Sheridan saw limited action against their north region opposition. The Mustangs played only two games while the Broncs played five contests versus BHB foes. Natrona played many AA South Region teams and Sheridan filled in the gaps with Montana schools. The two schools squared off in round one of regional play in Powell and Sheridan won, the first of three Ws on its way to the regional championship. Casper battled back for fourth place and a trip to Laramie. At the state tourney, the two schools won their openers but lost in the semis, Sheridan by only two to the eventual champs, Laramie. On the final day of the tourney, Casper turned the tables on Sheridan, eking out a three-point win and third-place honors.
Gillette was the best of the three Class A teams in the NE, taking conference honors with a 3-1 record over Newcastle and Buffalo. Lusk was added to the district tourney as the Tigers were the doormat of the five SE Class A schools. However, Lusk found the hot hand in tourney gathering, dropping a one-point overtime game to the hosts in the opener, then eliminating Buffalo and Newcastle in the next two games. Gillette managed to hold off the Tigers—again by just one point—to cop district bragging rights. At state, Gillette was two and done, being eliminated on Friday by Absaraka Conference foe Wheatland.
Class B Tongue River breezed through the regular season with a 10-2 record, two games ahead of Upton and three ahead of Sundance and Midwest. This earned the Eagles a first-round bye and an automatic place in the district semifinals against Midwest while Upton clashed with Sundance. Tongue River and Upton both won those games— Upton by just two points—and a tight final was contested between the league’s top two teams. It went into overtime and the Eagles won the championship over the Bobcats. At state, both teams lost their openers, won their second games and squared off in the consolation finals. This time Upton bested Tongue River for the consolation trophy, their first win over the Eagles in four tries that season.
(It’s difficult for small schools in the NE to schedule competitive games. With only three Class C teams at this time, the schools scrambled to find competition with JV and reserve squads from schools in larger classifications. Clearmont and Arvada scheduled six such games and Kaycee had nine, an imperfect solution to an unfair quirk in Wyoming geography.) All eyes were on Kaycee, winners of the Class C championship banner the previous year. Kaycee breezed through the regular season undefeated versus Class C competition. Once the Buckaroos took district honors, they entered the state tourney with a 19-1 record and were the prohibitive favorite to repeat. Both Arvada and Clearmont had excellent squads, but were eliminated in district play by NW entrant Ten Sleep. At state, Kaycee won its first two games and faced Chugwater in the finale. The Buffaloes were able to handle the Buckaroos and Kaycee ended an excellent season as runners-up.

Southeast
Things were especially rosy for teams in the SE corner of the state, as state champions from three of the four classifications came from that geographic area of Wyoming. In Class AA, Laramie won its first state championship since 1934, ending a three-decade drought within the large-school ranks. The Plainsmen were darn near perfect, dropping only one game within their 23-game schedule. The two Cheyenne schools posted inverse won-loss records, but both made it to the state tourney. Central had the more successful year, finishing third, while East was two and done.
University Prep’s second year as a Class A school was another Albany County success, as the Prepsters tied Wheatland for first place in the SE, took first place in SE district play and finished as state champion in front of the hometown fans. The Buckaroos’ only close game at state was an overtime semifinal win over defending state champion Lovell. Wheatland did well as the other SE entry at state, dropping its opener to Star Valley and then bouncing back with two close wins to take consolation honors. Lusk played again in the NE district tourney (as the last-place SE team) and surprised Buffalo and Newcastle to take second place and a spot in the state tourney bracket. The Tigers lost a two-point heartbreaker to Lovell in the opener and exited the tourney on Friday.
Glenrock cruised through the Class B Texas Trail regular season, dropping only one game out of 10 conference matchups. Guernsey-Sunrise and Huntley tied for second in the conference, but it was the Vikings’ two regular-season wins over the Cardinals that gave them the favorite’s role. Huntley surprised G-S with an easy semifinal win and then dropped its third straight game to Glenrock in the SE district finale. At state, neither team could win a game, although the Herders came close with an overtime loss to Tongue River on Friday.
All eyes were on Albin and Veteran as the two teams to beat in the SE Class C ranks. The two schools finished way ahead of the other eight teams in regular-season play with the Wildcats taking conference honors by one game over the Eagles. The district tourney played out the same way, as both teams easily made it to the finals. Veteran romped over Albin in the finals, while Chugwater and Carpenter took the No. 3 and 4 seeds, respectively. At state, three of the four SE teams made it to the semifinals: Albin versus Chugwater along with Veteran facing defending champ Kaycee. Chugwater easily upset Albin by double digits—quite the shocker—while Kaycee won a somewhat closer game over Veteran. Chugwater continued its fine tourney run on Saturday, dethroning Kaycee for its first state championship.

Rat Droppings***The deaths of two of their students due to carbon monoxide poisoning led to Wellington forfeiting the championship game to the Hornets. An exhibition game was staged in its stead between the host school and Pine Bluffs. I imagine it was called that because Grover had already played a game earlier that day and the school didn’t want to run afoul of having too many games scheduled that season. However, I’m counting it as another win, a four-win weekend in a three-round tourney.

Rat Droppings***#The Pine Bluffs Post printed this game as a Hillsdale win. The accompanying article is interesting as it reads, “Yoder led all the way until the final minute of play at Hillsdale Friday before losing to Hillsdale 56-53 in a SE Wyoming Conference game. Yoder played the last minute with only two players as other regulars fouled out.” Neither school was large but Hillsdale played the whole season with only six players and at times finished games with fewer than five on the court. The Post is in error, it’s a Yoder victory, whose score was mentioned in the Torrington paper. The following week the Post trumpeted Hillsdale’s “first victory of the season” over Ft. Laramie. The Pioneers finished that game with three players on the court and three on the bench due to fouling out.

Northwest
In the Big Horn Basin, all paths traveled through Fremont County as Lander and Riverton were the cream of a talented crop of Class AA hoopsters. Riverton hung on Lander its only conference loss of the season, and the Wolverines had a chance to tie for conference honors in the final game with Lander. The Tigers won by seven and cinched the crown and a first-round bye at the north regional in Powell. Sheridan sent Lander to consolation play in the semis and defeated Riverton in the district championship. Lander won a morning eliminator and then eked out a two-point win over Natrona for the No. 3 seed. In Laramie, Lander dropped its opener to eventual champ Laramie. The Tigers won their next game and faced Cheyenne Central for consolation honors, losing by two. Riverton fared better, winning its way into the championship against the Plainsmen. The Wolverines lost by double digits, their second consecutive runners-up finish.
Only Class A Lovell was able to compete with the larger schools in the BHB, tying with Worland for third place in the league. At the four-team regional in Greybull, the Bulldogs easily defended their district championship with a double-digit win over the hosts and then squeaking by Basin in a one-point pants-wetter. At the state tourney in Laramie, both Basin and Lovell won their openers and then were defeated in the semis—the Bobcats by Star Valley and the Bulldogs by eventual champion University Prep. The two BHB schools squared off for third-place honors, and Lovell won its fourth game of the season over Basin.
The Big Horn Basin Class B was loaded for bear, and four teams had legitimate shots at a state title: Shoshoni, St. Stephens, Manderson and Byron. Only two could progress to the state tourney. Byron posted the best regular-season record with only one loss. Manderson finished second in the north portion of the conference with two losses. In the south, St. Stephens split its two games with Shoshoni and ended the conference slate with two losses. Shoshoni had five losses but was the two-time defending state champion. At the district tourney in Byron, the four schools made the semis where Shoshoni eked out a two-point win over the hosts. Manderson easily handled St. Stephens. In the finale, the Wranglers easily outpointed the Demons. At state, both BHB teams won their Thursday and Friday games, Shoshoni’s one-point win over Big Piney being a surprise in the semis. Shoshoni was up for the three-peat on the final evening, edging Manderson by two points.
Class C Ten Sleep played mostly against BHB Class B teams and again went to the NE/NW regional in Gillette to qualify for the state tourney. The Pioneers lost their opener, then surprised with a win over Clearmont and avenged the opener loss against Arvada before losing to Kaycee in the district final. At state the Pioneers were two and done, losing first to Albin and then to Encampment.

Southwest
Class AA Rawlins was just a notch better than Rock Springs during the regular season as the Outlaws were one game up in the standings and swept both portions of the home-and-home series with the Tigers. The two SW teams were seeded below Laramie and Cheyenne Central for the regional at Rawlins. Both SW teams won their openers then lost to the top two teams in the semis, as Rawlins lost a squeaker to Central while Laramie manhandled Rock Springs. In Saturday morning eliminators, only Rawlins won as Rock Springs lost to Cheyenne East. Rawlins took the No. 3 seed with its second tourney win over East. At state, Rawlins dropped an overtime decision to eventual finalist Riverton in the opener and exited Laramie with a loss to Cheyenne Central on Friday.
Green River breezed through the regular season unscathed in SW Class A play and earned an opening-round bye for its efforts. Second place was up for grabs as three teams—Star Valley, Kemmerer and Jackson—were separated by only one game during conference play. At the tourney in Green River, bottom seed Evanston surprised Jackson while Star Valley polished off Kemmerer, the latter win a direct route to the finals. Green River handled Evanston easily to also qualify for the Friday final. Star Valley avenged a couple of regular-season losses with an easy win over Green River to take district honors. Green River took the No. 2 seed Saturday with a win over Kemmerer. At state, Green River lost its opener, won on Friday and lost in the consolation finals, leaving Laramie with a 1-2 weekend. Star Valley won its first two games and squared off with University Prep for all the marbles. The Buckaroos posted an easy W to hang the banner on the wall while the Braves finished as runners-up.
Big Piney posted one of the best regular-season records in the state, running up 16 straight wins before losing a one-point game to Class A Jackson on the final weekend of the regular season. At the Class B tourney in Green River, the Punchers rebounded from that loss with three easy Ws to assure pollsters across the state that their No. 1 ranking was no fluke. The second seed was quite the surprise as bottom seed Saratoga caught fire at the right time, upsetting Mt. View in overtime and then repeating the feat the following night against Cokeville, this time in triple OT. Midnight struck for the Panthers on the final night as they were no match for the Punchers. At state, Saratoga lasted all three days, winning its opener over Glenrock before losing its next two. Big Piney won its opener, then lost a one-point nail-biter to Shoshoni in the semis. On Saturday, the Punchers easily handled Saratoga again, their fourth win of the season versus the Panthers, worthy of the third-place trophy.
Class C in the SW again consisted of five teams and Rock River won the regular season title. Farson’s hard luck season—I’ve not found any wins as of yet—led them to skip the district tourney in Saratoga. Encampment turned the tables on Rock River to win that truncated tourney and the No. 1 seed. At state, Rock River went 0-2, while Encampment made it to the consolation finals, losing by three to Carpenter.
