Bobby Harrington

Robert Paul Harrington


Born:
June 16, 1905
Buffalo, NY

Died:
October 25, 1986
Pompano Beach, FL


Career
1930-31 Buffalo University (College)
1931-32 Buffalo University (College)
1934-35 Buffalo (NYSL)
1935-36 Buffalo Bisons (MBC)

Born to Frank and Clementina Harrington, Bobby played basketball around Buffalo before moving to Florida, where he served as a municipal court judge in Lighthouse Point, Florida.

There was another player named Harrington who played at BU in 1925-26. I don't think it is him, given the large break that would have occurred in his collegiate career. He was definitely the player in 1931 and 1923, though.
