Longtime Mount St. Mary s head basketball coach Jim Phelan passed away in his sleep at home, the school announced Wednesday. He was 92.
Known for his ever-present bow tie, Phelan won 830 games during his 49-season career at Mount St. Mary s from 1954-2003. Phelan coached the school to a 58-57 win over Sacramento State in the 1962 Division II national championship, and later guided Mount through the transition into a Division I program.
The Mount s basketball court at Knott Arena is named after Phelan. It is with sincere sadness that I share that Coach Phelan, our legend, has passed away, Mount St. Mary s current coach Dan Engelstad said in a statement. . I thought about how fortunate I am to coach at the place that Coach Phelan built and grateful that he built it on family. I get to share his desk and I get to coach in the gym that he changed lives in what an honor.
