COLUMBIA, KY - Six members of Lindsey Wilson College's 1971-72 men's basketball team celebrated the 40-year anniversary of winning the school's first national championship. The team won the 1972 National Little College Athletic Association championship.

Six surviving members of the team attended a luncheon on Saturday afternoon in Roberta D. Cranmer Dining & Conference Center, then were treated to a Blue Raider women's-men's sweep of visiting St. Catharine College from St. Catherine, KY, just north of Springfield, KY. During halftime of the men's basketball game, a banner commemorating the championship season was unveiled at Biggers Sports Center.
