Peter Gent
George Davis Peter Gent (August 23, 1942 – September 30, 2011) was a Michigan State University basketball player and National Football League wide receiver turned novelist. He authored the best-seller ''North Dallas Forty''. ==Early days== At Bangor High School (Michigan), Gent was a standout four-sport athlete (football, basketball, baseball and track). In basketball he led the Bangor Vikings team to the 1960 state Class C Championship, while accumulating a 22.6 scoring average.〔Murry R. Nelson ''American Sports: A History of Icons, Idols, and Ideas'' 2013 Page 962 "Gent was born August 23, 1942, in Bangor, Michigan, where he was an outstanding basketball player, leading Bangor High School to a Michigan state championship in 1960. Gent earned a basketball scholarship to Michigan State University,"〕 The team was known as the Cardiac Kids for their late-game wins in District, Regional, Quarter-Final and Semi-Final games. The final game against top-ranked Grand Rapids Lee was no exception: it was tied 41–41 after three quarters and Bangor went on to win 57–45. Gent led the team with 21 points, and was named to the All-Tourney Team which was chosen from schools of all sizes throughout the state. The Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan, in association with the Detroit Free Press, has sponsored since the spring of 1981, the Hal Schram Mr. Basketball award, given to the state’s top prep senior. Gent was awarded the “Retro" Mr. Basketball award, given to state players previous to 1981, who would have been named Mr. Basketball if there had been such an award at the time.
