Lou Bender
Louis "Lulu" Bender (March 8, 1910 – September 10, 2009)〔Mallozzii, Vincent M. ("Lou Bender, Columbia Star Who Helped Popularize Basketball in New York, Dies at 99" ), ''The New York Times'', September 12, 2009. Accessed September 13, 2009.〕 was an American basketball player who helped turn the sport into a popular success in New York City during the Great Depression and helped make Madison Square Garden a destination for the sport. Bender was a three-time All-Ivy League and two-time All-America in the early 1930s while attending Columbia University. After graduating from Columbia, Bender barnstormed with the Original Celtics and later played for a number of professional teams in the American Basketball League, the first true professional league and a predecessor of the National Basketball Association.
==Early life and education==
While a student as DeWitt Clinton High School in the late 1920s, Lou Bender connected on a long two-handed set shot during a game, prompting someone in the stands to shout, "Now that was a lulu of a basket."〔 The nickname stuck and followed Bender to college and the pros. At Columbia College from 1930 until 1932, Bender joined teammates George Gregory and Sam Schoenfeld to Ivy League titles in both 1930 and 1931, leading the league with scoring averages of 9.8 and 9.6 points per game those seasons, in an era before the shot clock in which ball control often limited scores to the teens.〔 He was named to All-Ivy, All-Met and All-American teams while playing for the Columbia Lions.〔 After completing his undergraduate degree in 1932, Bender earned his law degree from Columbia Law School in 1935.
