Kenny Davis (Beta Delta–Georgetown ’68) is one of the most decorated players in Kentucky Basketball History. A high school All-State Player, three time College All American, and a three time AAU All American ranks him as one of the best to ever hit the hardwood in the “Hoops Crazy” Bluegrass State. A member of the 1970 World University and 1971 Pan American Team, his big break came in 1972 when he was named captain of the U.S. Olympic team that competed for the gold medal in Munich, West Germany, which was named by USA Today as “The Most Controversial Sporting Event in the History of the Olympics.” Now, more than 40 years later, he talks about Munich, terrorists, the slain athletes, medals and keeping life in perspective.
