Texas Christian University honors James I. Cash Jr.
Re: James Cash
Texas Christian University recently honored James I. Cash, Jr., the James E. Robison Professor of Business Administration Emeritus, who starred on the TCU basketball team from 1967 to 1969 while also earning Academic All-America honors and who was the first African American to play in the Southwest Conference. One of only 30 players in TCU history to reach the 1,000-point milestone, he ranks fifth on the school's all-time scoring list and fourth in career rebounds. He helped lead TCU to the 1967-68 conference championship and a berth in the NCAA tournament. In 1984, he was inducted into the TCU Letterman's Hall of Fame.
