NEWBERRY — Newberry College honored basketball great Todd Frazier '89 on Saturday with the retirement of his jersey during the Wolves' home game against Lincoln Memorial University. He is the seventh Newberry men's basketball player to see his number retired, and the first since 1991.

 

"To me, Todd Frazier was an example of a classic, complete Division II basketball player," said Jack Williams, who coached Newberry's team from 1983-90. "He worked hard every day and represented the Newberry College ideal as a student-athlete. I couldn't be more proud to have coached him!"

 

Frazier ranks third in career points (1,999), fifth in career rebounds (897), second in free-throws made (472), and third in field goals made (736). Over his Newberry career, he played in 118 games, averaging 16.9 points and 7.6 rebounds per game, and he shot 51% from the field and 70% from the free-throw line. His honors include NAIA Honorable Mention All-America, NAIA District Six Player of the Year, and Newberry's Most Valuable Player for three consecutive seasons. Frazier was inducted into the Newberry College Athletic Hall of Fame in 2006.
