Daily News | Norm Eavenson left behind a hoops museum of sorts
Norm Eavenson was not a hoarder, just a meticulous collector. The collection inside his Chester County house left upon his death was orderly, just full of surprises.
Norm’s Kobe notes from the ABCD Camp before Bryant’s junior season at Lower Merion High weren’t meant to stun anybody, least of all Norm, who had seen Bryant plenty by then. But this ABCD camp in North Jersey may have been the highest level of competition Bryant had faced to that point, so Norm dutifully wrote what he saw : “smart – leadership qualities. Mobile [and] wiry to the hoop. Jams. Works BL [baseline] … deep shot didn’t drop Thurs evening. Forced some things.
Eavenson included his purple ticket stub in saving the March 8, 1965, Palestra Illustrated from attending an NCAA Eastern Regional tripleheader featuring Princeton and Bill Bradley vs. Penn State and Bob Weiss, followed by Providence vs. West Virginia and St. Joseph’s vs Connecticut. Another box marked simply “1960s-1986″ spoke to the collector in Norm. You want to see the program from the 1972 Seagull Classic in Atlantic City? There it is with rosters, starters hand-marked in red. If you thought Lionel Simmons was under-hyped, not true if you read Middle Atlantic Sports News in 1985. Simmons as one of the “five finest” in Pennsylvania.
