MSU Alum Cotton Fitzsimmons posthumously elected for induction into Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame

WICHITA FALLS, Texas — Cotton Fitzsimmons proved he knew the game of basketball as a two-time junior college All American at Hannibal-LaGrange before playing three remarkable seasons at Midwestern State.
 
Lowell, who was dubbed Cotton due to his extremely lightly colored locks, scored 1,095 points for the Indians helping the program to an NAIA quarterfinal showing in 1956. He competed from 1953-56 before earning a bachelor's degree from Midwestern.
