Harrisburg Boy Picked on
All Star Basketball Team
Selected by Brooklyn Eagle For Position of Left Forward;
Jackson, of Princeton, in Line-up
In an Interesting review of the college basketball season, the Brooklyn
Eagle picks Edward J. Stackpole, Jr., a Harrisburg boy, on the all-star team,
and says:
"The Eagle's 1913-14 All-American teams were selected after getting the
opinions of several well-known college coaches. The two quintets undoubt
edly are the strongest that could be selected, and compare favorably with
the honor teams of former years.
"Jackson of Princeton and Stackpole of Yale stand out as the leading
forwards of the year. The former was the find of the campaign, and put
up a slashing exhibition in all the games. In the ten contests in the leagua
tournament he tallied 65 points, 16 Held baskets and 35 from the foul line.
He was an ideal shot, was very speedy and an excellent defensive player,
i "Stackpole was among the league's leaders in the number of field baskets
I tallied, which is convincing proof of his scoring ability. He averaged closo
| to three baskets to a game, which is a fairly creditable record in these days
cf close guarding. He was of the aggressive type of forward, and was a
hard worker. His ability to dodge made him a hard man to handle, and he
frequently had the opposing guards completely at sea." The line-up of the
two teams follows:
First Team Position Second Team
Name and College Name and Collego
Jackson, Princeton Right forward Winshlp, Dartmouth
Stackpole, Yale Left forward Brown, Cornell
Gil Halsted, Cornell Center Seelback, Pennsylvania
Lee, Columbia Right guard Arnold, Yalt
Benson, Columbia Left guard H. Halsted, Cornell
