'Nice Guy' Is Dedicated Teacher, Coach Someone once said that nice guys finish last. In his thirteen years at Lubbock High School, eleven as head basketball coach, Max 0'Banion has known the sorrow of defeat and the joy of victory. At the onset of his initial year in 1955- 56, he was faced with the prospect of competing in District 3-4A with not one returning squad- man from the year before. Yet his team finished 16-14. After several seasons of rebuilding, his work really begun to pay off three years ago. These teams concluded their season play with records of 22-5 in 1963, 21-7 in 1964, and 21-6 in 1965. The 1964 mark was good enough for Coach O'Banion's first district co-championship. Max O'Banion is more than just a coach. He is a teacher, a counselor, and a good friend. His record off the basketball court-in leading young men-is one of success after success. In- dividually or as a team, Westerner basketball players have brought nothing but credit and respect to Lubbock High School, for their con- duct both on and off the court. On the court, Coach O'Banion has taught his teams how to handle a basketball during a gameg off it he has taught them how to handle them- selves in a more important game. A school could ask for no better representative. This 1966 WESTERNER is thus dedicated to a nice guy who, in the eyes of Westerners, always finishes first-Coach Max 0'Banion.
