KURT RITCHIE


Kurt had to wait until his junior year to earn a starting position, but that says more about the ability of Matt Robles than it does about Kurt's talent or readiness. Remember that Matt was a three-time All-Patriot League selection, its Player of the Year, and a professional draft pick.

Has any Lafayette player more fully embraced the role of Blue Collar Man? Kurt never averaged five shots per game in any season. He made 206 shots in his career, and blocked 309. No Lafayette player has more career rebounds than Kurt's total of 988, and he's third all-time in the Patriot League. He shut down one opposing big man after another.

Kurt was also one of the most gifted students we've had. He will graduate with his degree in history, and he has applied for a Rhodes scholarship.

Thanks for the memories, Kurt.
