About Jack Harvey Basketball

  • Jack Harvey (August 6, 1918 – November 1981) was an All-American basketball forward/center at the University of Colorado from 1937 to 1940.
  • As a senior in 1939–40, Harvey became the first Buffaloes basketball player to earn a Consensus All-American distinction when he garnered a Second Team accolade.
  • He had also been recognized as a First Team All-American in 1939, although he was not a consensus selection.
  • Harvey led the Buffaloes to two conference championships and a trip to the NCAA Tournament his senior season.
  • During his junior and senior years, Colorado posted a 31–8 record and spent some time as the #1 team in the country. No records of Harvey's scoring and rebounding statistics have ever been found.
  • He was known as a tenacious defender, however, which is probably a leading cause for his All-American distinction in 1939 and 1940. In 1942, Harvey helped lead the Denver American Legion of the AAU to a national championship by defeating the Phillips 66ers 45–32.
