Tom Becker

Thomas W. Becker


Born:
May 17, 1923
Dover, OH

Died:
January 24, 1991 
Dover, OH


Career
1939-40 Dover High School - Ohio (High School)
1943-44 Akron Shulans (Independent)
1943-44 Cleveland Summits (Cleveland Industrial)
1944-45 Cleveland Allmen Transfers (NBL)


Played one game for Cleveland.

- Update 8/25/16 -

Found Thomas W. Becker from Dover. He fits the bill, played HS basketball at Dover HS, played around at Akron and found his way to Cleveland. Good fit, declaring it so.

He could also be Thomas George Becker (1923-1993) from Vermilion, Ohio. It's closer to Cleveland, but I don't think it is him. This Tom Becker played HS football, but no sign of basketball anywhere.
