UO Hall of Famer Charlie Warren passes

Post by Duck07 »

I didn't know about him until I saw this article this morning. What an awesome guy and a great representative of the University!

His soft spot for children and those less fortunate were revealed in a big way two years ago when he presented Kidsports with a $250,000 endowment to help fund the Adopt-a-School scholar­ship program, thus ensuring that all children would have an opportunity to participate. By more than double, it is the largest single gift ever given to the nonprofit organization whose roots go back to 1953.
At Oregon, Warren finished his career with 1,301 points and 730 rebounds. He stands 16th on the all-time scoring list, and ninth in rebounding. He averaged a double-­double as both a junior (17.0 points per game, 10.3 rebounds per game) and senior (22.2 points per game, 10.2 rebounds per game). Only two players — Terrell Brandon and Stan Love — have posted a higher single-­season scoring average.
