Basketball was the first organized sport at DSC. There were both men's and women's teams. One of the members of the first team was Joe Brodie, uncle to the famous Ram's quarterback. The teams began during the second year of the school. Clyde O. Braden introduced football to the school in 1924. That year there were no actual games, just scrimmages against Dickinson High School. The team came out with a 5-1 record in 1933 and placed second in the conference, their best effort in their nine years of existence. Three of the stars of DSC football are now members of the faculty. Howard Kitchen was three times named to the all-conference team; Al Tamayo was selected to the all conference team, and in 1949 was the second in scoring of all members in the nation that belonged to the NAIA. Roger Huffman was an all conference cen- ter. Ted Uecker, now known to many as the littlest ref of college basketball, held many of the school records from 1955-1967. Under the direction of coach LaVern Jessen the basketball team had an impressive record. In five years he brought the team four conference championships and three District 12 NAIA cham- pionships.
