vs. Oglethorpe (Nov. 20th)
Furman receives TWO votes in the latest AP Poll. Just as many as the little tigers down the road. Would be electric if Paladins can remain undefeated until the Kansas game.

Parker High School Gym, a.k.a. “The Pit” (1924-present)
Woodside Avenue, Greenville
This remarkable facility wins the award for longevity in Greenville. The gym has been renovated countless times and is currently the beautiful home of the Legacy High School Lions. The Parker Golden Tornadoes won the state basketball title in 1959, and the Legacy Lions, under the leadership of coach B.J. Jackson, continues this winning tradition today, with USA National Prep Titles in 2016 and 2019.
Parker High boasted one of the great basketball talents in Ronald White, who averaged 31 points and 17 rebounds during the 1977 season. One of the unique features of the Parker gym was a vertical jump platform that would measure your leaping ability. White set the record at 11 feet, 2 inches. The platform is no more, but the memory of this fantastic leap remains.
