Too many Aztec fans are not aware that their school actually did win a national title in basketball. It was in the tournament of the forerunner of the NAIA, but that still ranks as a great achievement. Also, Milton "Milky" Phelps, the star of that team, made it to the Helms All-America team that year.
I wonder if any of that 1941 team is still alive. If so, I hope someone will record an interview with him about those days.
