Hall of Fame
The 1983-84 Men’s Basketball Team has the distinction of being the first team inducted into the Ozarks Sports Hall of Fame. Picked to finish fourth in the Arkansas Intercollegiate Conference heading into the 1983-84 season, the then College of the Ozarks Mountaineers shocked the state by winning the league by four games on their way to a 27-6 record, which remains the most wins in the program’s history. The 1983-84 team snapped a 35-year streak of consecutive non-winning seasons for the program and was ranked as high as 14th in the nation at one point in the year. Team members, coaches and managers included: Donnie Siebenmorgen, Terrance Rhodes, James Wilks, Scotty Pierce, Kevin Winn, Ron Culver, Charles Ingram, Bruce Terry, David Hund, Tony Joyner, Reggie Martin, Troy Johnson, Bill Cox, Pete Van Dyke, Keith Johnson, Carlos York, Fred Frye, John Lewis, Roscoe Gordon, George Reid and John Hinsley.
