GEORGIA HONOR ROLL
FIBA HALL OF FAME Teresa Edwards, the most decorated basketball player in Olympic history, was enshrined in the FIBA Hall of Fame in June 2013 in ceremonies in Mies, Switzerland. “What can I say? It took me all around the world,” Edwards said. “Now the FIBA Hall of Fame is calling me home to stay forever. Who in their right mind wouldn’t be excited about this?” Edwards helped the U.S. win four gold medals and a bronze in her five Olympics from 19842000, making her the most decorated Olympic basketball player ever. Oscar Schmidt of Brazil and Andrew Gaze of Australia played in five Olympics but never won a medal. Edwards also holds the unique distinction of being both the youngest and oldest women’s basketball player to ever win Olympic gold. Edwards was among 12 members of the 2013 FIBA Hall of Fame class. Other inductees include: players Jean-Jacques Conceiçao (Angola), Andrew Gaze (Australia), Paula Gonçalves (Brazil), David Robinson (USA) and Zoran Slavnic (Serbia); coaches John ‘Jack’ Donohue (Canada), Cesare Rubini (Italy) and Pat Summitt (USA); technical officials Valentin Lazarov (Bulgaria) and Costas Rigas (Greece); and contributor Aldo Vitale (Italy).
